I got a 14" mattress because some of the reviews said that their mattresses did not expand to the full thickness, but mine got to the full 14" within a couple of days after unboxing. I would have been happy with just a 12" if I had known, however I don't regret my purchase. It's a great quality mattress with just the right firmness to be comfortable. I don't get back or body aches upon waking up and it supports me well even when I lay or sit on the very edge. I also love that I don't notice so much now when my husband turns or shifts position while sleeping unlike when we had a spring mattress where I felt every movement. We have been using it for a month now and I don’t feel hot sleeping on it, just very comfortable. There was a very faint smell when we removed the plastic cover upon unboxing which I think can be expected of a product that has been compressed in plastic for a while, however the smell disappeared after a few hours. We unboxed in the morning and slept on it that night. I debated between buying this or the Zinus Greentea mattress but I'm glad I chose this because the price is cheaper and the quality is comparable or even better, depending on your firmness preference. I think this mattress is a tad bit more firm whereas the Zinus tends to sag more when you sit on the edge. I know because my daughter just bought the Zinus Greentea mattress before their price went up a couple of months ago. The only con is that now I have to find deeper mattress covers but I guess that is a great excuse to get me some new covers because it has been a while since I bought some.
