Unexpectedly Perfect After Adjustment!
We had this mattress for almost 72 hours before I wrote this, and I wasn't too happy at first. For one, it didn't expand fully, with each corner being a bit dented which left the middle higher than the edges. I also expected it to be a 6.5 on the firmness scale, but that wasn’t the case. I needed some firmness for breastfeeding, but instead, I found myself sinking in too much, especially around my back, which made it tough to breastfeed. Even after using several pillows, there just wasn’t enough support, and I was waking up with leg pain from side sleeping. It felt like the mattress was causing more issues instead of easing them. We were about to return it, but then we decided to give it a bit more time and placed it on an actual bed frame instead of the carpeted floor. What a difference! It changed overnight. It's super comfortable now, and when I move, it doesn’t disturb anyone else in bed. I tried it with a glass of water on the bed, and it stayed steady. It hugs your body just right without that sinking feeling. After a few days, all my body pains disappeared, and I’m even seeing some improvements in my husband's snoring. I’m so glad we decided to hang on to it! It's a real find for the price! 💯

Great balance of comfort and support.
I've been really impressed with the Nectar Classic 12” Memory Foam Mattress. It has a medium-firm feel that perfectly balances support and comfort. It contours well without making you feel like you’re sinking in too deep, and it helps relieve pressure on my back and shoulders. The cooling layer is a nice bonus since I tend to sleep warm, and this mattress stays comfy all night long. Setting it up was simple (typical mattress-in-a-box), and it expanded quickly after unboxing. For what I paid, the quality seems great. It’s supportive, quiet, and does a good job of reducing motion transfer, making it a solid option for a main bed, guest room, or dorm. Overall, I’m pleased with my purchase.

Very solid mattress!
It's been nearly 10 months since I got this mattress, and I'm ready to share my thoughts. With anything that gets regular use, you really only know how it holds up after some time. PROS: - It's slightly lighter than typical memory foam. - Stays cooler compared to other memory foam options. - After 10 months and rotating it 180 every three months, no permanent dips yet! - Easy to shift around at night, which isn’t always the case with memory foam. - The cover comes off easily for cleaning, and it doesn't get too dirty. CONS: - If your frame doesn’t have dog legs or a recess for the mattress, it can slide around a bit. - The fabric on the cover pills quite easily, even after removing it. Overall, I'm happy with this mattress and the sleep I've gotten from it. I'd buy it again.

I'm really happy with the bed overall. It looks nice and was easy to set up. However, I find it gets a bit too soft during the night, and sometimes I need a firmer surface for my back support since I'm an amputee.

Great mattress after 10 months!
I’m writing this almost 10 months after buying the mattress. You really can’t tell how a product holds up until you’ve used it for a while. PROS: -It’s a bit lighter than most memory foam. -Keeps cooler than other memory foam options. -After 10 months and rotating it every three months, we still don’t see any permanent dips! -It's easy to move around on it at night. -The cover comes off for washing and doesn't get too dirty. CONS: -If your frame doesn’t have a lip or something to hold the mattress, it can slide around pretty easily. -The fabric on the cover does pill up fairly quickly, even after washing. Overall, I’m happy with this mattress and how well I’ve slept on it. I’d buy it again.

So easy to shop for a mattress!
This was a breeze to set up and it's so much more comfortable than my old mattress. There was no smell when I opened it, and it inflated quickly. For my weight, around 150 pounds, it's pretty firm, maybe a bit too firm for side sleeping. I just put my old topper on it and it's perfect now. If you need to sit on the edge for things like tying shoes, it might not be ideal, but I'm enjoying it. I got a great deal during the sale and I'm glad I went for it after checking out other reviews.

Not What We Hoped For-EDITED! It’s perfect!
We had this mattress out for almost 72 hours and slept on it for two nights. Initially, I wasn't thrilled. First, it didn’t expand fully, and the corners were all dented, which made the center higher than the rest. Second, it was marketed to be a 6.5 on the firmness scale, but I couldn’t find the firmness we needed for breastfeeding. Instead, I sank in too much, making it hard on my lower back. It didn't offer any support, even with extra pillows. After two nights, I woke up with leg pain, which was frustrating since it was supposed to help with pain, not make it worse. We were ready to return it right away. However, we decided to give it another shot and let it form correctly. Once we put it on a proper bed frame, it was a complete turnaround! The difference was incredible. It’s super comfortable, and my movements don’t disturb my husband at all. It slightly reminds me of a wine commercial mattress, but I tried a glass of water instead, and it stayed right where I left it. It hugs my body without that sinking feeling. After a few days, all my body aches disappeared, and I even noticed my husband doesn't snore as much now. I'm thankful we decided to keep it! Such a hidden gem for a fraction of the price compared to other mattresses.

Great mattress, change shipping method
We haven’t had it for long but this feels like a great mattress so far. Soft and supportive at the same time. Such a great value for the price. However, shipping was a real hassle. Hawkins Woodshop shipped this through usps. The day it was supposed to arrive, the mail carrier left us a note that said it was too big to deliver. They left this note in the mailbox, not at our doorstep so by the time we got it, the post office was closed for the weekend. Went to the post office during the work day, waited in a long line, and they had the package. Luckily, the gentleman helping me helped carry it to my car. Hawkins Woodshop/Nectar should change shipping methods asap, as the whole point of ordering a mattress on Hawkins Woodshop is to have it delivered to me.

Comfortable, supportive, and great value.
I’ve been very impressed with the Nectar Classic 12” Memory Foam Mattress. The medium-firm feel strikes a great balance between support and comfort. It contours nicely without feeling like you’re sinking too much, and it does a great job relieving pressure on the back and shoulders. The cooling top layer is a nice touch as well. I tend to sleep warm and this mattress stays comfortable through the night. Setup was easy (typical mattress-in-a-box), and it expanded quickly once unwrapped. For the price, the quality feels excellent. It’s supportive, quiet, and minimizes motion transfer, which makes it a solid choice whether it’s for a main bed, guest room, or dorm setup. Overall, very happy with the purchase.
