Pain No More

I used to wake up with a sort back, hips and shoulders. No more. The Casper Wave Hybrid was great from the very first night. When I get out of bed in the morning I feel like I did 20 years ago.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve woken back pain free for the last two weeks since getting this mattress. It’s better than I expected.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The mattress is firm but comfortable. It relieves pressure points. It doesn’t sleep hot and we can move on (or get out of) the bed without waking up each other.
After 25 years on my extra firm mattress, I finally found a new way of sleeping....in total comfort. The delivery and unpacking went well and left me ready to crawl into bed. I generally have a hard time sleeping on my back, but Casper has allowed me to count the sheep on the ceiling as I easily fall into dreamland. As is my custom, I usually roll on my stomach during the night. Casper cares not what position I find myself in as all are truly comfortable. As my girlfriend has two Casper beds at her home, I'm now never far from a good night sleep.
I am big at well over 6 foot and about 230 pounds and I sleep on my side. I previously had an innerspring mattress and chose this based on ratings since I couldn't try one in a store. Most foam mattresses I tried in a store were solid feeling and didn't have any "bounce" or feel of movement from other parts of the bed. The Casper had a bit more bounce than I expected. I think I prefer it that way. It was also a bit more firm that I expected and I think I would prefer one a bit softer. The biggest problem with the mattress was that it stinks. It literally stinks. The smell has not yet completely gone away after about six weeks of use. I tried airing it out and even using Febreze to reduce the smell and those helped but the problem is not yet completely gone. Also, when I unpackaged it, it of course sprang into the desired shape but the corners of the mattress remained slightly curled up for a very long time. It is mostly flat now. It is more comfortable to sleep on than my old bed but that one was worn out and was the reason I was getting a new one. Reports indicated a foam mattress might be hot to sleep on. Happily, I have not experienced that. Overall, I'm generally happy but it would be better if a bit softer and less smell.
