Let me first say that I'm about 300lbs and have dealt with lower back and shoulder pain for years. After research and assessing my budget, I chose the Nectar Premier. I had momentarily second guessed my mattress selection and wondered if the Hybrid would have been the best solution. Most reviews suggest the Hybrid is better suited for heavy people.

Due to the industry leading trial of 365 days and lifetime warranty, I figured I'd at least try the Nectar Premier, besides, it fit my budget better.. The mattress was delivered on time and packaged adequately. I was able to single-handedly unpacked and stage the mattress in the bedframe with minimal struggling. It may have been easier to get my wife's assistance but pride got in the way.

I didn't notice any unpleasant odor as some reviews suggest from foam mattresses. The mattress expanded quicker than expected. Nonetheless, we gave it plenty of time to "decompress", about 10 hours.

Upon bedtime, our hightened anticipation was met with surpassed expectations. The mattress was much firmer than expected, I assumed it would be a bit too soft. The support was instantaneous and quick to react to shifting positions. The reaction time is amazing, there's little to no feeling of being sucked in and unable to move. I tend to sleep near the edge and found the support to be surprisingly consistent, not once did it feel like I would fall off the bed.

Another concern was if we'd sleep hot as reviews suggest, not at all. I purchased a "cooling" mattress cover, bamboo sheets and a light blanket also promoted as cooling. We live in Arizona, sweating at night is quite common. Our first night's sleep was absolutely delightful! I don't recall a similar night full of dreaming in many years. The biggest surprise was not waking up periodically to shift positions due to pain in my back and shoulders. I cannot tell you how much it meant to sleep through the evening so comfortably, waking up feeling rested and without pain and stiffness. What a game changer!

We look forward with confidence to see how this mattress preforms down the road. Initially, for now...we couldn't be happier!

I very rarely write reviews, but after buying this bed, I wanted to help anyone else who is looking to buy a new bed. This review is a little lengthy, but you will be glad that you read it entirely. If you are like me, you have looked at all the mattress brands and have read countless reviews and looked at the pricing on all of them. I will tell you now “STOP LOOKING!” This mattress, in my opinion, is the best mattress on the market regardless of the price. I don’t know how any other mattress can compare when you look at price, comfort, quality and the 365 day trial guarantee. I ordered my mattress from Amazon because they offer a $79 delivery, set up and removal of your old mattress and box springs. No other company offered that and if you don’t use Amazon, it cost upwards of over $200! It arrived within the window scheduled (when was the last time that happened for you?) and the delivery crew did a great job, even offering to take their shoes off before entering my house! I also ordered a mattress frame from Amazon and had it ready to go when my new mattress arrived. I could have used the old frame and box springs, but I wanted more storage so I bought a 16” high frame with a skirt that I also bought from Amazon. Now for the bed, I bought the Nectar Premier Copper 14” California King-Medium, which turned out to be PERFECT! A lot of people complain about their mattress having a smell when it is opened, but this Mattress doesn’t smell at all. This mattress is not too hard and it is not so soft that you sink in to it. It’s so comfortable that I want to lay down on it every time I walk by it. When I go to bed, I’m out in minutes and I sleep all night! I’m confident that if you buy this mattress, you’ll end up keeping it! The worst that can happen is you enjoy the mattress for up to 365 days and send it back if you are not satisfied. I hope this review helps you in making your decision on your mattress.

1. Shipping packaging: arrived in cardboard box. Inside, mattress is vacuum-compressed within thick, clear plastic. It is rather heavy (70+ lbs) for its boxed size, so have help ready to lift, etc.
2. Unboxing: make sure your bed frame is ready, before opening the plastic vacuum wrap! Once the seal is broken, it expands quite rapidly, and is unwieldy.
3. Expansion: 3-5 hours minimum is recommended (by manufacturer). We allotted about 7 hours, before we slept on it, and it seemed OK. There was little to no odor.
4. Initial sleep: of course, any new mattress requires a bit of “getting used to”. First sensation when laying upon it is one of slight envelopment. Not a negative, just a bit more initial “give”, than we were accustomed to. Support seemed to be in a 6+ range. Welcome lack of pressure points, particularly when side-sleeping. Back-sleeping was extra restful, for me.
5. Consecutive sleeps: after a few nights acclimating, our initial comfort assessments are unaltered. It does feel a slightly warmer, than any previous mattress, but this is easily adapted. Rolling over does take considerably more effort, but due to the comfort level, we found ourselves rolling much less often.
6. Incidentals: There is little edge support, with this mattress. If you frequently sit on the edge of your bed, you may find this awkward or challenging. As this type is less rigid than a traditional mattress, moving it around (to do periodic rotation, for example) is more laborious – almost a “dead weight” experience.
7. Overall impressions: We are pleased. So far, this seems to be a cost-effective, convenient, expedient means to a new, comfortable mattress. (comments may be amended, as time progresses)
Gave 4 stars simply & solely because we have not owned very long.

Thoroughly enjoying this mattress. No backaches, pressure points, or sweating! We have been sleeping on the mattress for over a month & there is no sign of breakdown or damage. I am using a standard slatted sleigh frame with a 5” box spring for support under the mattress. Highly recommend!!!
