Adding this to our bed did help with the quality of my sleep. I used to average about 4-5 hours of sleep maximum because my back pain would wake me up. I can now easily sleep 7-8 hours with little to no back pain, so it definitely is worth the investment. It is a lot softer than I was expecting, and while it is pretty cool temperature-wise when I first fall asleep, it feels really hot by the time I wake up. However, it does its job as a temporary solution for extending our use of our current mattress until we get our new one.
