This Beautyrest Black Hybrid medium mattress is seriously a beautifully put together piece. It is so well made and has beautiful stitching. The memory foam topper has what i would descride as an alternating quilted pattern that makes it look even sleeker. When you lay on it you can FEEL its coolness, as it has some type of cooling foam to help keep your temp lower instead of making you hotter like others can sometimes do. Unfortunately this mattress is HARD. For something that should be a 'medium' type of firmness I really question if I was sent the wrong firmness. Because IF there was a firmer one I'd be laying on concrete! So while my absolute favorite part of this mattress is the temp controlling foam I cannot take advantage of it because i had to buy a 2 inch foam topper to be able to sleep. I'm SO thankful to Beautyrest for sending me this mattress to review, I just wish it wasn't so hard.
