True to ratings. Helps with hip and back pain. Mattress is a little firmer then I typically would like but once you get used to it, really don't notice much. Rating did say that it doesn't sleep as hot as others but I do find you still sleep a little hot at times, but this could also be just me. NO issue with sitting on the side of the bed, no different then our pillow top mattress.
The king size was delivered with one end of the mattress misshapen (compressed). It has been weeks and one end of the mattress remains uneven in thickness on this side.
I was hesitant to order a mattress online without trying it especially with seeing a lot of controversial reviews. I can say that every expectation that was set by tuft and needle was met. I am very happy with my mattress. It was a bit different going from my old spring mattress to this new all foam style but not I wished I did it sooner!
