Firm and comfortable
Very comfortable, prefect level of firmness. I've owned this one for about two months now and it's just as good as the day I set it up. It's replacing another Lucid I had that wasn't as firm, but still lasted 4 years.

Finally, A Full Night's Sleep
Got this during Day to replace a couple of foam toppers I have been using on a hand-me-down traditional full mattress and box springs set that is still too hard for my taste despite being broken down. The two toppers were about 5 inches total of just "memory foam" and weren't really getting the job done. I am 62, overweight, and have arthritis in many joints, including my hips. I sleep mainly on my left side but at times, my left hip would hurt and I would end up on my back during the night. This caused my back to hurt and my legs to go numb. Not to mention apnea episodes with multiple wakings during the night. To be honest, I really didn't pay much attention to the inches and just saw the good price - got mine for a lot less than what it's going for now. When I got it and saw that it was only 5 inches, I worried. Especially when I read on the company website that it was designed to transition kids from the crib to a full size bed. I was afraid it wouldn't be firm enough to give the support I needed. Happy to say that assessment was very, very wrong. I got it out of the box at around 11:00 am and it was fully decompressed by the time I was ready for bed 12 hours later. There was no strong smell that I could detect and I am very sensitive to smells. It's firm enough to keep my hip from hitting bottom yet cushy enough to keep me pain free. I woke up on my side, exactly as I had gone to sleep. Basically, I slept like a rock and woke up feeling a lot better than I usually do. I would definitely recommend this mattress if you are looking for a replacement. However, considering how the full mattress is suddenly going for more than twice what I paid for mine during Day, you might want to check around for a better price if you're looking for a full. By the way, this mattress works just fine atop a traditional mattress and box springs. I even have another foam topper between the older mattress and this new one but only because it would have been a royal pain to have gotten rid of the topper first.

Try here before the mattress store
The web site for the product aside (which is no good) the mattress is terrific. I stayed at an air b&b and this was the exact mattress I slept on for five nights. I got home and bought it right away. The support is excellent. The firm (I got) is solid in a supportive way. It's cool and has no gasses. I was able to sleep on it the first night but it got to where it is supposed to be during the second day. I love it! My lower back and hips love it. And talk about value; it's great. I just bought a great mattress for three times the price six months ago; it's a good one. But I am 'regifting'. I am staying with Lucid.

Surprisingly good for the price
I bought this Lucid 5” memory foam mattress for a simple setup and honestly didn’t expect much, but it turned out better than expected. It’s definitely on the firmer side, which I personally like, especially for back support. Even though it’s only 5 inches thick, it feels supportive and doesn’t sink too much. It works great for a guest room / kids room / lighter use, and it fits perfectly on a platform bed frame. Setup was easy and just unbox and let it expand. I also noticed it doesn’t trap too much heat compared to other memory foam mattresses, which is a plus. No strong chemical smell either after airing it out for a bit. Overall, great value if you’re not looking for something super thick or ultra-plush. Solid, simple, and gets the job done. If you want it a little more “Hawkins Woodshop top reviewer style” (shorter, more punchy, or more critical), I can tweak it 👍

If it's too soft use the other side
I got the firm and found it very plush on the sleeping side of the mattress while it's comfortable to lay on to watch movies on the laptop it's not great for back sleepers this way. I ended up flipping the mattress and using the other side and I find it much better and firm this way. Seems as though the memory foam goes to waste this way but I find it quite comfortable this way so this is the way i'll use it. If you buy the mattress and find yourself with the same issue as myself give it a try. Not bad at all.

Best mattress you’ll ever own
I am writing this review after having owned this mattress for three years. This is the best mattress ever. You’ll sleep like a baby. It is firm, but your body will simply relax and you’ll fall asleep very quickly. In the morning you’ll awake well rested and completely pain free. Great quality and great price.
