Has anyone tried both the 2020 version of the Casper Original AND the Casper Select from Costco? How do they compare in terms of feel?

Why I ask:
My fiance and I went to try the Casper at a local store today and actually loved it. While doing some more shopping though, we found that Costco also had a Casper Queen mattress that was $400~$500 cheaper than what Casper was offering both online and in-store.

Upon reaching out to Casper support to ask what the difference was, they told us that the Casper Select (Costco one) is in fact the older version of the current Original. The main differences are:
Casper Select/Older Original - 4 layers, top layer is breathable open cell foam, 12" height. Zip-off cover
Current Original - 3 layers, top layer has their new 'Airscape' foam for breathability. 11" height. They also removed the zipper on the cover so the top is no longer removable.

Again, I'm wondering if anyone's tried both of these and knows the difference in feel. We like the current original but if we can save $500 for a product that feels basically the exact same, then its a no-brainer. (Sleeping hot isn't an issue since it doesn't get crazy hot where we are)

-edit- To clarify, I havent tried the Costco Casper so dont know if it feels the same or not. Thats the part I'm hoping to get lucky and clarification on.

-edit2- The Costco Select Casper (aka the 2019 Casper Original) arrived two days ago. There was some chemical off-gassing scent, but not as much as others make it seem. It felt extremely soft during the first 24 hours and my body was slipping off everytime I sat on the edge.

48 hours later, it's definitely gotten more firm and is very close to the feel of the 2020 Casper we tried in stores. The edge support is also much better, although still lacking at the extreme edge of the bed (ie the last 2 inches).

I'll give it another 24 hours before making the call, but I'd say that the Costco was definitely the way to go vs the 2020 Original.

• Similar edge support situation on both

• Feel of 2019 is the same as the 2020 after expanding

• 2019 still has the removable zipper-cover that got removed for the 2020

• was $400 cheaper

Hybrid vs cooling select? Anyone have experience/opinions?

Has anyone grabbed this mattress off the current sale? I have a old Casper I really like but am looking to upgrade to a Queen and $120 off is great

I like my current Casper because it’s firm and not bouncy, so motion transfer is minimal

Also curious if people have experience hauling it home from warehouse. Does it fit in your car? Thanks!

While shopping at Costco a few weeks back, I saw they had a few sizes of Casper mattress on sale. It was not a road show as there was not at an end cap. The part that got me was the price: $599 for a queen which is $400 cheaper than the website. Not sure if it was a pricing mistake or if it is constructed differently than one from the website. Has anyone else noticed this?

FWIW, I'm in Austin.

This is a good deal right?

I’m not 100% sure it’s the same as the Amazon listed one but I did need to buy a new mattress for my apartment and I was just gonna get one at ikea, but this seems too good to be true.

So I'm a side sleeper with a very firm mattress that has been screwing up my shoulder/upper back for almost a year; I tested out a casper hybrid mattress in store and it felt very soft/plush but still with some support.

(Ive tried several toppers for my firm mattress before including the casper one and sink right through / hate them!)

I know the costco casper hybrid version is different (and some reddit reviews says its firm, which I likely dont want) but Im wondering if anyone knows the actual difference between these 2 models, besides the price...

any advice or knowledge would be much appreciated!
