I got this as I needed a new mattress quickly and on a budget, the reviews were good and I have to say, its actually really comfy. When you sit on it directly yes you can then feel the springs but once youve laid down it spreads my weight evenly and is really nice. Ive also got a mattress topper to make it extra comfy but honestly I dont think Ill need it! Its a very soft mattress so not a lot of support if you have back issues but Im a bigger girl and this is lovely.
