I finally replaced my 2015 Tuft and Needle Kind size and 20+year old box springs. New box springs were Serta available at Costco. The difference is incredible! I love the new mattress even though it has only been out of the box for 2 hours before we slept on it. Very happy with my purchase. I'm a tall 200lb back and side sleeper, wife is a stomach sleeper. We both feel like it's plush and comfortable yet supportive. No more back and shoulder pain from the old sunk in mattress. No more ridge in the middle of the bed from the old broken down box springs.

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!

I'm referring to the Novaform 14” ComfortGrande Advanced Gel Memory Foam Mattress and Casper Cooling Select 12" Memory Foam Mattress

Sharing since I've seen great deals on Novaform and Casper mattresses at Costco for the last couple of months and someone else may be considering. We've purchased both (memory foam versions, not hybrid).

A couple of months ago, we needed to furnish a guest bedroom on a budget. I was pretty skeptical about inexpensive foam mattresses, but we took a gamble on the Novaform 14" mattress for the guest bedroom and were pleasantly surprised with it (guests complimented it more than once, and we slept on it a few times too and were impressed). It's pretty firm (a little too much for my wife), but I thought it was fantastic. The "off-gassing" was genuinely strong from the Novaform and took a week or two before the bedroom didn't have that smell.

Since that ended up being a happy purchase, we started considering doing it again to replace our aging and sinking memory foam mattress. The Casper mattress retails for 150 bucks more than the Novaform, but was on sale for the same price as the Novaform, so we figured it'd be a better choice (plus, my wife wanted something a little softer than the Novaform).

We went for it and bought the Casper mattress for ourselves. We both thought it was way too soft, and were thinking about returning it after night 1, but we're certainly going to now after 3 nights.

We sink in worse than our 7 year old mattress, we're both sore and tired. I weigh like 180 pounds, and if I sit at the end of the bed, I'm almost sitting on the box spring. We have to lay as far as we can away from each other not to sink/roll towards the middle.

If you've got 400-500 bucks to spend on a mattress and are looking at Casper or Novaform, I'd recommend Novaform. My wife found it a little too firm but was otherwise happy, and we both immediately knew the Casper wasn't gonna stick around. We're gonna be sleeping in the guest bedroom tonight on the Novaform while we wait to return the Casper 😂

Hybrid vs cooling select? Anyone have experience/opinions?

Costco added Casper Select 12" Hybrid Medium Mattress. Any advice or information on how it compares to Casper mattress on their web site. Is it the same one as Consumers Report rated number 2 in innerspring mattress.
