I've already recommended this mattress to friends! There are several things I like about it. The biggest is that I am not worried about inhaling toxic fumes while I sleep. This is what led me to Tuft & Needle as an option to begin with. The mattress is a lot firmer than what I was used to with my TempurPedic but after about a week of adjusting to it, I grew to love it. There was no smell when we unboxed it and we slept on it that night. I like the springiness of it -- that was something that was lacking in my TempurPedic. This mattress is comfortable, priced right, and met all my requirements when shopping. When it comes time to replace my kids' mattresses, we will be using T&N again.
