Thousands of Happy Sleepers Can't Be Wrong
VerifiedOmg!!! This is the most comfortable mattress I have ever slept on. I am so happy with the decision about this mattress. The contours your body while y…

I have had this mattress for over a year and it is still amazing!… It perfectly conforms to your body giving you enough support without being too soft or too firm.

I have been amazed at how comfortable it is and the quality was fantastic, too.… This Cool Gel mattress is, BY FAR, the most comfortable mattress we have ever owned!… It is firm, yet squishy, and it is solid.

I purchased this mattress for my daughters new bed. This mattress is very soft… when you lay on it your weight distributes out evenly creating a soft cloud under your body. My daughter loves it!

The second night I slept for 6 hours straight without moving. I sleep on my side and usually toss from side to side throughout the night. Also I usually wake up several times at night. So getting more deep and REM sleep is great.

Purchased 12”. It’s super soft with a medium firm. It fully expanded over night. Had no smell at all, and the cool feel is soooo amazing! Extremely happy with purchase.

I can say so far I have absolutely no issues with this bed. If anything anytime I sit or lay on it I smile because I find this bed to be extremely comfortable. I haven't had any issues sleeping on my side with the firmness either.

This is still the best mattress for me. No back pain. Still like new. Conforms to my body.… All the luxuries of an expensive mattress for a much lower price.

The gel memory foam is like a superhero for your body. It hugs your curves and provides the perfect amount of support… It's like having your very own mini air conditioner built into your mattress.

This bed is awesome.… As it stands, I am incredibly happy with this purchase.
VerifiedI was skeptical at first, thinking no way a memory foam mattress could match up to a hybrid model, especially when it comes to firmness. But man, was I wrong…

This is our second coolgel brand mattress. We bought one for our son when he went from a kids bunkbed to a teen (twin) a bed and I am very impressed - my son’s mattress has held up over the last five years.
VerifiedThis is the SECOND time I’ve purchased this mattress so I thought I’d be a helpful reviewer. We purchased this for the first time in 2019…

Awesome mattress. I researched a variety of gel foam mattresses for two months prior to purchasing… It was worth it for the extra plush and cushion and thickness of mattress. Still so affordable at this price.

Just set this mattress up yesterday. It was so much better than I expected! So incredibly comfortable. I would call it medium, not too firm or too plush.

It's the full 14 inches deep and it is quite firm - a good thing for us since we were concerned that a foam mattress would be squishy.… Highly recommend this mattress.

I can not recommend these mattress enough. They are superb! And I'm a very picky person.… You sink in deep and than find support. I woke up with no back pain for the first time in a long time. I'm a side sleeper.

I looked around for weeks before purchasing this one. I almost bought one similar for about $1200, and am I glad I didn’t cause I scored on this one.

Medium/firm is what I'd call it… Also, there's no heat issue for me, maybe even cooler for me than the past spring coil mattress… Best mattress purchase ever for us at an amazingly low cost compared to the stores

After 6 months there are no indentations in this mattress, the cover is in perfect shape, and it continues to be extremely comfortable.… I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a firm, good quality mattress on a budget!

I’ve never ordered a mattress in a box before… I’ve had it for 2 weeks now. And I don’t want to get up in the morning. Very comfortable. I definitely will be buying this same bed again in the future.

I have had now over 4 memory foam mattresses and this one provides the right amount of support and plushness. I sleep hot and have back and neck issues due to injuries and weight 170-180 and noticed this one was just right.
VerifiedI’m someone who doesn’t like to make big purchases, so I’d had the same mattress for more than 20 years. I finally realized it was time to upgrade…

I have arthritis in every single joint in my body, and this mattress seems to support them all. In addition, I no longer turn from side to side, and I no longer get night sweats.

By comparison to a lot of top brands this mattress is just as good and at a much much cheaper price. Shipping was fast… soft enough to provide comfort, firm enough for support and so far maintains its shape.

I wasn't sure about the memory foam and cool gel, but the mattress is VERY comfortable to me.… I will be buying a couple more for the home, now that I know how it feels.

Never had such a comfy Matress in my life! And it just so happens to be the lowest price Matress I’ve ever owned as well. It’s sturdy but soft on top, I sleep like a baby. It’s super quiet and doesn’t squeak or transfer motion.

This is by far one of the most comfortable mattresses I have slept on!… This mattress just forms to your body. It’s soft yet firm and gave me just the right amount of support.

I've slept on this mattress for a little over three months now. I will say this is the best mattress I've ever owned (so far). I like a firm feel and this mattress delivers that with out the hard pressure points.

What’s cooler than cool? This mattress. Usually, I can’t “cuddle” with my wife, because I overheat. Not with this mattress… Update: no lower back pain four nights in a row. We love this mattress.

Had it for a few months now, it's a great mattress. I used to wake up with my back hurting, and now I never have that problem.… So comfortable to sleep on, absolutely perfect, couldn't be happier.

The mattress itself is a great balance between firm/soft. It supports your body very nicely and has been helping me sleep through the night with no pain when I get up in the morning.
VerifiedI purchased the queen size 14 inch cool gel bed and a box. This is my first time buying a mattress off of Amazon and without testing it first…

I got instant relief! No hip or back pain and a decent night's sleep. I would describe it as soft but solid. It forms to your body without fully sinking in. No disturbance from my BF moving in bed.

I love it I can’t believe that I choice this cool gel I sleep better comfortable and most of all it was a great price u will not regret it cuz more comfortable and for my personal opinion I highly recommend this one.

It’s comfy and pretty thick. I don’t feel anything if someone is on the other side getting up. It looks great and feels great. I have no complaints.
VerifiedI had the queen size version of this bed for the past 4 years and I love it so much. Been needing to get a king size and I wanted the exact same mattress…

Generally, with firm mattresses I get aches and pains in my shoulders and hips but this one has not given me any gripes. It IS firm for sure, with great support but the pillow top makes all the difference.… I'm very pleased!

I didn't want to spend a lot of money and this appears to be a good value. It is not firm at all but seems supportive at the same time.… The photos are literally 5 minutes after unwrapping, it expanded to the full 12".

It even has the right amount of support for sitting in bed, without that sinking feeling… I would rate the mattress quality as well above average, from the fabric, handles, details and overall experience with it so far.

I am so pleased with my bed. It is so comfortable and firm with the right amount of softness that I like. I would definitely say this is worth my money and I am very happy to have made this purchase.

I bought this mattress for my girl. She is super happy. The mattress is super comfortable.… Highly recommended.
VerifiedYou cannot beat this mattress for the price. I honestly want to get rid of my $2500 master king mattress for one of these!
VerifiedThe biggest thing that I'm impressed with is I only paid $400 for the new mattress versus $4000 for a new Tempur-pedic. The cool gel mattress has yet to get warm which is another thing I needed. I like a cool mattress.
VerifiedLove it! love it! Love it! Comfortable I can even lay on my stomach with no pain on my knee. I'm now doing my therapeutic exercises for my knee on this mattress and relieved because I can.

The mattress arrived vacuum packed, and quickly inflated to the 14 inch size as described. It was perfectly proportioned, soft on top, with edge support… The quality is beyond my expectations.

This is the coolest sleeping bed and bedding I have ever owned.… You really sink into the mattress but at a certain point it stops and you can feel the firmer support, love it!!

Plush materials you could sleep on out the box . Soft to the touch but a mix of firm on the body . Perfect in between bed if you’re not sure what fits you !… I’m not one to do reviews but hey when it’s good it’s good!

Underneath is a high-density support base that keeps your spine aligned. Every mattress is built in the USA by Foamtex.
No. Cool Gel mattresses contain no fiberglass. Every foam layer is CertiPUR-US certified, which means it is made without ozone depleters, heavy metals, formaldehyde or PBDE flame retardants, and has low VOC emissions.

It covers manufacturing defects, including visible indentations deeper than 1.25 inches when the mattress is used on a supportive frame or foundation.
