My husband and I purchased this mattress the day after we got married.  We were sleeping on a mattress that was 25-years-old. The mattress was delivered when expected. It came in a large box that I was able to bring into the house all by myself. I unwrapped the mattress and placed it on the box spring.  We let the mattress expand to its full size for approximately 48 hours. We were very excited to sleep on it, so the anticipation was killing us! But.....it was worth the wait. We absolutely love it. Our bodies hurt less in the morning and I am not waking up my new beloved husband every time that I roll over. I actually love the smell of it too. I would recommend this very reasonably priced mattress to anyone that asks!
