I bought it as a spare bed and a bed to mattress to take camping. A week after purchasing it, I had a friend visit me and she slept on the mattress. She said it was actually very comfortable. I took a nap on it and it wasn't bed. I wouldn't recommend for long term sleeping but for visitors it works great. I also like how it folds up because I am limited on space. The cover protects the mattress really well. I dropped a glass of juice on it and it didn't go through the cover. I just unzipped the cover and washed it and it was easy to put back on. Overall I would recommend this product and I am very satisfied with the purchase.
