The bed feels supportive, it does make my back hurt some nights but that could be from me just having support for my back in a bed for the first time in six years. I would recommend anyone to atleast try it, I plan on keeping mine. Only problem I have noticed is I'm 270lbs 6foot 2 and my but does bottom out on the base if I lay on my back, and that is very uncomfortable. This bed seems to be made mostly for side sleepers.
