I couldn't afford new mattresses for the house and our current ones are really stiff and uncomfortable so I purchased this for my daughter's bed and she said she loves it and that it's so much softer with this topper on it. I opened it early in the am and let it rise and air out for the day and was ready to sleep on! she thinks it's the cats meow lol. and so much cheaper than buying a new mattress! yay!
