Was surprised at how easy it was to assemble and how comfortable it was. Boxes are heavy, but once you get them opened they are not heavy at all. Fell asleep quickly and am staying asleep without a lot of tossing and turning. found out that the twin xl will fit in my semi, so will be getting it for the truck soon.
Unlike some reviewers, as a side sleeper, I have found this mattress very comfortable. The sleep surface is consistently comfortable, i.e., sides of bed and middle. To deal with the odor issue, I let the mattress air 24 hours before putting on any linens. If I think about it, I can still detect some lingering odor, but I expect with a little more time, that will go away. I used the White Glove service for unpacking and set up. Courteous and professional team.
Honestly I am not sure I love it yet. I'm waiting a bit longer to see if maybe I change to the firmer option or return it altogether. I wake up a little stiff so I'm going to change my pillow and see if that helps otherwise I may have to look for something else. I had very high hopes for Casper hopefully it works out.
It was difficult for my husband & me to physically pull the mattress from the box. Once we had it out of the box, tho, it was simple to slide it around on the base. Then we just had to be very careful cutting the bag from the mattress as it started to grow & grow! Very pleasantly surprised with the pillows. They are very different than the pillows we were using. We woke up pain free! We can't claim that every morning, but we would recommend it to our friends.
When I got into the market for a new mattress I was very confused. My need was to move from a queen to a king bed for my one bedroom condominium. I visited the regular suspects and was ready to pull the trigger on a hybrid mattress, but the cost and noise of foam mattress manufacturers gave me pause. I decided to do more research and visited Consumer Reports where I found Casper to be one of the recommended models, so now with some education and a short list I went to two of my final three choices including the Casper pop-up store at Ponce City Market in Atlanta and spent about 45 minutes on the "The Casper" and "The Wave". I really liked "The Casper" and bought it based on my experience and with confidence that Casper has a 100 night trial. I also purchased mattress cover, pillow, sheets, duvet and duvet cover. I'm sold on the mattress, pillow (highly recommended), and mattress cover. I'm not sold on the sheets, duvet and duvet cover yet but they also have a 100 night trial and Casper has been an absolute pleasure to deal with in my experience. I highly recommend "The Casper" mattress.
