How does this product compare to other products you've tried? It's been a long time since I have slept on a brand new, good quality mattress. I must say, it feels great to have a comfortable, sleeping surface waiting for me every night! Prior to Sealy's Posturepedic Spring Tight Top Soft II, I slept on a refurbished mattress that required a mattress pad so we could sleep better and prior to that I slept on a futon (I definitely needed a mattress pad for that one). It's sad I put off getting a good mattress for myself for so long, especially considering we spend a good amount of our life in bed. This mattress is so comfortable, I can do away with my mattress pad. I sleep so comfortably now. The mattress itself is actually affordable and I would definitely buy it again when needed. I recommend this product to everyone.
