Original Foam Queen Mattress, 2020 Model

I visited my brother and his family recently and the bed I slept on was a twin with a Casper mattress. I slept on that bed for over a week. Some days when I woke up, I didn't want to get out of bed because it was so comfortable. I've been sleeping on a Select Comfort (Sleep Number) bed for over 25 years and have not really liked sleeping on an air mattress for most of that time. The Casper mattress gives better support of a more traditional mattress, but it hugs you in a good way. Some reviewers stated that they saw less quality between the twin and queen size. My mattress was manufactured in June of this year and it's absolutely perfect. I'm very glad I bought it - and with the Cyber Monday sale price! I'm very thankful to get more satisfying sleep with my new Casper mattress. Ahhhhh....

Excellent mattress! This was recommended by a family member who raved about it. We added the best delivery option since we have a 2nd story bedroom. They delivered it and installed it and took away the old one. It was well worth the extra charge.

The Caspar Original is advertised as a medium-firm memory foam mattress. While there is no standardized rating system for the firmness of a mattress, of the various memory foam and innerspring mattresses that I've experienced I would categorize this as a soft mattress. I haven't tried the other firmness designations of Casper memory foam mattresses so I can't speak to how their medium-firm mattress compares against what they would call firm and soft (I couldn't find a description of firmness on their site nor any product labeled 'firm' or 'soft') but to my body this is a soft mattress. That doesn't mean bad, it is very comfortable, it's just out of line with how most other memory foam mattress manufacturers use of the term 'medium-firm'. It is a very comfortable mattress and unlike many other memory foam mattresses does not even mention needing to let the mattress expand fully over a number of hours or even days, nor is there any talk of odors of any kind, only that it is ready to sleep on as soon as it is unpacked, which in my case I did. There was only the smell of my own worn socks which I could have done without if I had only thrown them in the hamper instead of leaving them on the floor next to the bed... It's a great mattress but it should be understood that it may seem soft to by comparison to other mattresses labled as 'medium-firm'.

This mattress is the most comfortable one I have ever owned. During my recent move it was good to know we wouldn’t have a bulky, heavy mattress to handle.

Buying a mattress online is risky. Mattress comfort is a personal thing, Casper understands this and aggressively advertises their "no-risk trial" across many media outlets. According to the policy, Casper will issue a full refund and arrange for the disposition of the mattress if you find the mattress uncomfortable within the trial period. Without this guarantee, I would never have purchased this mattress. Unfortunately, if you purchase from Amazon, Casper will not honor the "no-risk trial". Amazon is willing to process the return and refund the cost but UPS will not take the mattress unless it's in a box and there's no way to get the mattress back in the box it arrived in without some ultra-special equipment. Even if I had a refrigerator box, I doubt I could make it fit. This is a nightmare. So, if you want to try out one of these Casper mattresses, do not purchase it on Amazon because Casper does not honor it's no-risk trial policy. That said, here's our experience with the mattress: basically, it's soft around the edges and very firm in the center. The foam has rounded (not square) edges that reduces the effective sleeping area by 4 to 6 inches all the way around. Some people might like this (but it's not our preference). It was also way too firm for our liking. We've learned our lesson and will never purchase a mattress again without having first tried it out in a showroom.
