First of all, this was my first high-end mattress. It is HEAVY! You will need help setting it up! It does have helpful fabric handles along the sides to help you maneuver it into place. Second, it is very firm. I prefer a firm mattress, but this one might need a bit of a foam topper for me to be super comfortable on it. Third, the construction seems very quality. The top is quilted and the seams are all very sturdy. Finally, it's an extremely tall mattress, so I'm still getting used to that! I have a mattress protector on this and I expect it to be a nice place to sleep for years to come.
