I unboxed my king-size mattress by myself. It really is a two-person job, especially when you are 68 years old! Setting up the foundation would also have gone faster with two people, but I managed. When I first laid down on the mattress, I was not sure it was going to work out. However, after one night’s sleep, I knew I made a great investment. My back pain has completely gone away! Absolutely no comparison to my old mattress. As for recommending Casper to a friend. I already have, several times!!
I went to the big name brand stores to look at the whole beds that are supposed to help you have a good nights sleep and I was shocked at their prices. I then heard about Casper and thought we’d give it a try. The matters/foundation was half the cost of the other stores and it’s extremely comfortable. I hadn’t slept through the night in years due to back and should pain and now I am sleeping comfortably through the night.
Within the last year I have bought two hybrid mattresses. The first one had a side that never seemed to fill out completely but it wasn’t bad enough for me not to use it. I just expected it to be more squared as a traditional mattress can be. So, it’s pretty comfortable and I ordered a second one and when it arrived, we let it open up for a week and there is still a big section of the side that is not filled out. It is unacceptable and I am trying to return it. I would welcome Casper helping me accomplish this.
Even with getting the hybrid I felt like there was no support. I woke up almost every day with lower back pain. I don’t feel like it was a good fit for either my husband and I.
Finally, a mattress my wife finds comfortable. As a petite sleeper, most beds are too firm, especially at the shoulders. This bed is somehow very soft, but still supportive. The only complaint was how long it took for the "new mattress smell" to go away. Otherwise the ordering and setup process was very easy, and the customer service rep I chatted with on the site was very helpful.
The unboxing experience was definitely a workout. It took both of us to get it up the stairs. It didn't help that one of the handles on the box broke. Once we got the mattress roll into position we cut the plastic off and it sprung open with no problems. It took about a week or so to adjust to the mattress but it's exactly what we needed. My partner has back problems and after a few weeks he noticed improvements with his back pain in the mornings. I can pretty much sleep in any position and feel supported. That's not something we had with our old mattress. I would recommend the hybrid to anyone looking for a "soft but firm" mattress. It's soft enough to cradle your body without that sinking feeling you get with other foam mattresses. We were skeptical but the 100 night guarantee gave us some hope to try it. We are glad we did.
