Awesome mattress. Great customer service I’m side sleeper and it’s firmness is good. I added a working box spring. That seems to make it a little more contouring and makes it a perfect 10 for sleep
I recently bought my third queen Mint mattress (three different beds). It's somewhat firm, but my hips don't get sore. I tried to use a dust mite cover, but that seemed to affect the subtle conforming to my shape that I need. But the conforming isn't too much. Also, I sleep hot, and I haven't noticed that I sleep more hot on a Mint.
But so far, we're in love! I'd had our former mattress for over ten years and remember when I thought it was amazing. And obviously I knew that it was old. I knew that I was getting old, too. I hadn't realized how big of a difference a new mattress would make. After hours of research, I think we made the right choice.
