How firm is this matterss? (Light, Medium or Hard?) I found memory foam mattress to be extremly light firm and hated that!

I believe this mattress to be medium in firmness. I weigh around 320lbs and it works well enough... could be a little more firm, but is much better than my old coil-spring mattress (no more stiff joints and back pain). If I had to do it again, I would probably purchase an 8-10 inch foam mattress... less material to compress (sink into) for someone my size. I also purchased a proper base for this mattress as well. It could be a little more firm for my preference, but I'd give it an 8.5 out of 10. Other than that, it's great.

It was too plush for me. I traded with a friend who purchased a different brand that was too firm for her. Great question and extremely important. The sellers should provide more info...even have a firmness scale that provides this key measurement. Who cares about 13 or 15 inches if its too plush or firm?

The mattress is firm overall but feels softer on the surface once you use it. Has solved some back issues for me. Wii run a bit warm also.

I found it to be a nice firm mattress, but my wife found it to be too hard for her so we are going to be replacing it.

It is very comfortable however it may not be firm enough for your liking. I would agree with the others who say it is "medium to soft." If you can check one out in a store first, you could "con-firm" if it is firm enough for your liking:-)

God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam. Only one person mentioned that the mattress was very firm and that was unfortunately after I purchased it. Damn thing kept getting harder, and I kept buying more foam toppers for comfort. Fortunately, my mom needed a new mattress and she has to have very firm. I gave her the hard 11" and ordered an 8" pressure relief memory foam and I love it. Feels so good to sleep on my side and not wake up hurting! So forget trying to "fix" that hard mattress and just get another one. You will quickly forget about the money you threw away! God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam.

I would say a good combination of firm and medium. It's not too firm where you feel like you're snuggling a hard memory foam pillow, but it's not too soft where if you throw your leg over it that it squishes down to nothing. I bought because of spinal surgery. I would suggest to get a cover for it because it is not a soft feeling case it's in.

If you're on a tight budget or if you dislike the initial stiff feel of medium and high-density memory foam mattresses, then a low-density memory foam mattress may be the right choice. I love my memory foam mattresses. Low is just as good as medium or high. Hope this helps you.

equal to any other memory foam mattress. Memory foam mattress generally weigh more than your standard size. I do not know the exact weight.

It is pretty firm, but the memory foam is also temperature sensitive so if you are like me and have your bedroom fairly cool the mattress is a bit more firm than if you keep your bedroom warmer.

My mattress is very firm, but it is now beginning to sink where my touchy is and I 've had it for about five months now. Also, I spoke with a someone who has been selling mattresses for years and she stated, "People either love Tempurpedic or they hate it." I will personally not buy any memory foam (mattress, pillows) anymore. DONE!

this is more firm than the mattress toppers. i guess it would also depend on your weight. but memory foam alone just goes flat with all the body weight on it and yields equally as hard as the surface its on top of. hope that helps.

It is pretty firm for a memory foam mattress. After about 6 months it is still relatively solid.

I'm not quite sure how to answer that. For everyone it would be different. When I first got on it , I thought it would be to soft. But when you settle in, its so perfect for me. I am 5'8 160 lbs and my hubby is 6'5 280 lbs. We are both extremely happy with it. I would totally give it a few days to get used to though. Especially if you have never used memory foam before. I can say honestly, if I had to make the choice again I totally would choose this mattress . The squishy side thing is the only thing to get over, which I have. Hope that helps. K

According to the manufacturer's web site this mattress has a medium-plush feel. That means it's not too firm or plush, but is leaning more towards the plush side.I ended up buying one that was more firm for that reason.

Hi Mary. Well, I bought two mattresses, a full and a queen sizes.Both of them, have two layers. The top one that is the side you lay down is about 2" of memory foam. And 8" Of very dense foam. Believe me, I have chronic back pain and since I started to use this kind of mattresses 2 months ago, I have less soreness in my lower back. It's incredibly the comfort and feeling when I sleep on it. One tip: once you unwrapp the mattress, place it in the bed's frame. To make the shape and contour more exact and precise to the mattress.If you decide to buy it, enjoy it. Hi Mary. Well, I bought two mattresses, a full and a queen sizes.Both of them, have two layers.

If you looking for a quite firm one, this is not the right one for you. It's medium firm I would say.

This is a good mattress. I am relaxed when I wake up in the morning. It holds the shape and body just like thta. I like it. But it not very firm. So if you are looking for firm memory foam mattress then this is not the one...Tough its good and very comfertable.

This is 3" thick, and I thought of medium support. It went on top of a very firm mattress and made it feel like a nice memory foam mattress. I have two Tempurpedic beds. This was for my daughter's apartment. Made an uncomfortable bed feel awesome. So, I would say medium-soft density.

I see you got some mixed results! The top of the mattress is quite soft, giving it an initial cushy feel, but the mattress is quit firm. I would agree with the "supportive" answer. Beware, the first week I got this mattress it was difficult to get out of bed, that's how awesome it is.
