ITS LIKE S SPONGE WITH NO SPRING BACK.  GETTING OFF THE BED IS MORE OF A CHALLENGE THAN GETTING ON THE BED. ITS GOING TO TAKE ME ABOUT SIX MONTHS TO GET USED TO THE FEEL OF THE MATTERS. I HAVE BACK ISSUES AND NEEDED A NEW MATTRESS SO I TOOK MY TIME TO LOOK AND SEE WHAT RESPONDS WHERE GIVEN BEFORE I DECIDED TO GO WITH THIS GEL MEMORY FOAM MATTRESS. SO FAR SO GOOD. NO MORE SPRING MATTRESS FORE ME . I LIKE THE FEEL OF SLEEPING ON A CLOUD. IF YOU EVER DECIDE TO BY A GEL MEMORY BED GO TO THE STORE OR IF A FRIEND HAS ONE ASK IF YOU CAN LAY ON IT TO GET A FEEL OF THE BED BEFORE YOU MAKE THE CHOICE TO BUY.  I FOUND THIS GEL MEMORY MATTRESS CHEAPER THAN GOING TO BRICK BUILDING BED STORES. BEST OF LUCK TO FINDING THE RIGHT MATTRESS FIT FOR YOUR NEEDS.
