Comfort for Every Body: A Heavyweight's Review of the Signature Design by Ashley Queen Size Chime
I recently purchased the Signature Design by Ashley Queen Size Chime 12 Inch Medium Firm Memory Foam Mattress with Green Tea & Charcoal Gel, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. This mattress has exceeded my expectations in several key areas. First and foremost, the comfort level is outstanding. The medium firm support strikes a perfect balance, offering just the right amount of firmness without sacrificing comfort. The memory foam conforms to my body, providing excellent support and relieving pressure points. This has significantly improved the quality of my sleep, and I wake up feeling refreshed and pain-free. Initially, I was concerned about purchasing a boxed mattress online without trying it in person at a store. However, this mattress is comparable to a plush firm mattress available at local mattress stores, and my concerns were quickly put to rest once I experienced the comfort firsthand. One of the standout features of this mattress is the infusion of green tea and charcoal gel. These elements not only help with odor control but also maintain a fresh and cool sleeping environment. I've noticed a marked difference in temperature regulation compared to my previous mattress, and it stays comfortably cool throughout the night. The quality of construction is also impressive. The mattress feels durable and well-made, with high-quality materials that are evident from the first touch. It arrived well-packaged and was easy to set up. After allowing it to expand fully, it reached its full 12-inch height and retained its shape beautifully. Additionally, I was pleased to find that the mattress didn't have any off-gassing smell while it was expanding. It's worth noting that the delivery of the mattress was handled by a third-party delivery company. While the delivery was smooth, the boxed mattress is quite heavy and cumbersome to move with just one person. I highly recommend having two people to move it around the house and help with the setup. This will make the process much easier and more manageable. During the expansion process, I observed that the mattress sections on the outside of the roll expanded within an hour, while the section in the middle of the roll took about two days to fully expand. Due to this, I placed the middle rolled section by the footboard to allow additional expansion over time while still being able to use the mattress after 48 hours. As someone who weighs over 300 pounds, I find this mattress to be very comfortable and supportive. It provides excellent stability and does not sag, ensuring a restful night's sleep. What's more, it's extremely comfortable during side sleeping, providing the perfect level of cushioning and support. Overall, the Signature Design by Ashley Chime 12 Inch Memory Foam Mattress is a great investment for anyone looking for a comfortable, supportive, and high-quality mattress. The added benefits of green tea and charcoal gel make it stand out in the crowded market of memory foam mattresses. I highly recommend it to anyone in search of a better night's sleep.

Amazing Cotton Firm Comfort Mattress
My Ashley mattress is like sleeping on a cotton cloud as I float into restful comfort. Soft cotton mattress and firm to touch, it contours your body when sleeping and springs back to firm shape when I rises. This is the second mattress we’ve purchased for our home. We now own a Queen and Full size. It arrives rolled up in box compressed in plastic wrap. Easy delivery to door, easy move to bedroom and opens up flat until you open plastic wrapping - and inflates on its own in minutes. I will only purchase my mattress from Ashley’s. Thanks you!

So far best purchase I've made... Outside of food!! 😂
Ok First: I've done extensive research on mattresses, what kind of mattress does better holding up, what to look for in a mattress and what mattress firmness does better for different people and how they sleep ect. Ect..... After paying for an over thousand dollar "hybrid" mattress in store, touching, feeling, testing and being reassured by a "professional mattress store owner" that hybrids are the new elite premium purchases of all mattresses and worth their extremely high price tag, I was at a loss, three months in with my king of all kings mattress and it's already large dips on both sides of the bed from myself and my husband alike, even though we're two very very different people in size, height and weight! Now my husband is a 6'2 160 lb man and I'm a 5'9 240 lb woman, that's a fairly large difference, yet we both caused dips in that mattress within the same time frame. So yeah I've got some trust issues 😂. Trust me sleep has been unbearable.... Second: I needed a mattress that I could buy that was affordable and that was going to do its job! So I began reviewing mattress after mattress, ones best for heavier set people and ones that were reliable. I looked both on and off of Hawkins Woodshop. There are countless ones just like this one that come up, ranging from a little cheaper than this too a little more, but the reviews for me on this one and of course that steal of a deal price tag. Can a sounds too good too be true, be real in this world? Yes. Now I've only had this mattress for coming up on 2 weeks but following the recommended two days set time before using, when I first laid on this bed.... I knew instantly that top dollar, premium hybrid was an Elite lie! I'm talking instant comfort that I'd been denied the luxury of having, because of a top dollar investment I was stuck with. This mattress has already in the time spent on it, started to relieve my siatica nerve pain that the last ugly sinful bed had caused me to have. Back pain solved (mind you, I have no extensive issues with my back, only an out of alignment hip) instant grogginess and tiredness gone in the am, I'm able to get myself out of bed because I actually slept with optimal comfort and actually get deep rest.... Go figure, you really do need restful sleep too cure most simple things that ail you 😬.... Gone fatigue and achy tired muscles, gone pinched nerves, and feeling like I'm 8 years older then I really am! Now am I getting ahead of myself? Maybe! But honestly just the two weeks that I've gotten was actually worth what I paid for this mattress already 😂😃😂.. See that tells you just how bad my "premium hybrid" really was! Alas.... I know that things could change in a month or maybe even less.... So I solemnly vow to come back in a month and give an update and then also at the 6 month mark and give another update and then we'll see if we make it to the 1 year mark to see what we got going on then! That way you can feel better about making an actual decision, incase you got trust issues or mattress ptsd like me, or have a similar story and have searched ruthlessly hoping to find something that'll give you and your wallet piece of mind!! I got you boo! 😂 I'm taking one for the team!! So Until another 2 1/2 weeks..... Take care knowing someone out here is rooting for you to get the sleep you need!! Sincerely, a previous tired, grumpy and hurting mattress grinch! I'm late lol.... Don't judge me! I got a life outside of mattress reviews 😂. I've now had this mattress for around 7 months..... Wait for it....... Wait for it..... It's still amazing... Best overall purchase I've ever made!!! No dips.... No sag... Just amazing quality.... I will be buying more of these mattresses for my other rooms throughout the house! If you're looking for a slightly firm but still feels soft mattress then look no further! Buy it! If the firmness part scares you.... I'll tell you a lil advice my nana gave me lol.... You can be soften a bed but you can't harden a bed! So always opt for firmer and soften too your desire!!! But this bed really has made a huge difference!

Very comfortable, holds up well over time
I love this mattress. It is so comfortable and is holding its shape really well. We've had it for 3 years and haven't ever turned it. It is pretty firm, which is exactly what I wanted when I bought it. I would buy it again in the future if I need another mattress.

4 stars until I'm sure
*3 wk-Update*: I've been sleeping on this mattress for three weeks and honestly, I just can't seem to get comfortable and I think it's because it's just too firm. I think it feels like it's an extra firm mattress that has a little layer of softer foam right on top... Which accounts for the bit you do sink in, but when you do sink in, you inevitably hit the firmer foam below it. I've been having some back discomfort while trying to get comfortable on this mattress. I'm not saying the mattress is causing any further back pain, but it's not doing my existing back pain any favors or affording me any relief. I already ordered a different mattress from another company to try that out, and if I get better sleep on that one, then I'll be returning this one. I hate to do that as it's a mattress and I don't think they can resell it. If I do initiate a return, I'll update the review to reflect the returns process. I don't mean to dissuade anyone from purchasing this mattress. I should note that there are plenty of "pros" such as... The mattress arrived very clean and without much of an "off-gassing" odor. It's fairly easy to get in and out of the bed, and I don't feel like I'll fall off if I'm near the edge. I really believe this might be a terrific mattress for someone who likes a really firm bed with a bit of a soft top.*(initial review)*I didn't take any photos because there are already a lot of photos of this mattress. I'm just here to give my opinion. I got this mattress on 10/26 and today is 10/29, so I've only had 3 nights on this mattress so far. The mattress arrived clean and in perfect condition. I let it inflate most of the first day and then put a zippered hypoallergenic mattress cover on it, then sheets, bedding,etc. Before jumping into bed. Lesson learned, don't jump... This isn't a bouncy bed! It is firm, but the top layer has definite sink to it. Not too much though, just enough. The bed I frustratingly threw out just days before getting this was a Beautyrest Recharge. It was the most horrible bed I ever had the displeasure of wasting hard-earned money on. I was waking every morning feeling like my spine had been twisted into a pretzel shape! I'm sure those of you out there suffering the same fate know exactly what I mean. That mattress was a pillowtop hybrid and the materials broke down so fast. I couldn't take it anymore and went to take it off my bed to toss it outside onto the porch, and it wouldn't even stand upright. It kept trying to fold in half like a taco! Mattresses shouldn't do that! This one seemed to have decent reviews which is why I purchased it. After only three days, I'm not yet sure whether I love it or not. I definitely don't hate it. It may just be that my body needs to get adjusted to it. When I get off the bed, I can see and hear the mattress re-inflating and filling in where my body imprint was. The reason I only gave this bed 4 stars is because it's only been 3 nights so far, and I need more time to make a decision. I found this bed to feel firm, but more on the medium-firm side and not plush at all. I had my little brother lay on it (ok he's a grown man about 5'7 155lbs), and he thought it felt "hard". I definitely think that a person's weight can have something to do with their perceptions regarding the firmness level of this mattress. Keep that in mind if you're think about purchasing. I'm going to give it a couple more weeks to truly decide if I love this mattress. I'll update this review in a week or two in case anything changes. Fingers crossed. I want this mattress to be "the one." One last thing, the bed only inflated to 11 inches, not 12, but maybe it'll get there one day, and if not it's no big deal. I'm more concerned with comfort rather than height.

Exceptional Value
Edit: It's been 4 years and we still love these mattresses! Also had a friend stay over, go home and buy the same mattress for their house!*All attached photos were taken within 4 hours of unpacking*Only time will tell how this mattress holds up but I am very pleased thus far. I bought two 12" full size for my kids (this listing) and a king size 12" Elite for myself & spouse (separate listing) all on a Cyber Monday sale. These are our first memory foam mattresses and I completed an exhaustive amount of research for the better part of a year before settling on these. Upon delivery, these were packed well. The mattresses each came in a clear bag which was shrinkwrapped around them. They were then rolled and covered in a durable milky-colored plastic and finally boxed in a clearly marked manufacturer's box. We brought the kid's beds in to sit at room temp for a day before unpacking. Each came with clear (albeit unneccessary) instructuons on how to set up. I would highly reccommend if you bought the bed in winter to let it get to room temp before unpacking. It speeds up the recovery proccess tremendously. The kid's beds were up in a matter of minutes with the corners lagging slightly. Ours, which sat in my car in the cold a few days, took longer. Regardless, none of the three took the full 48 hours which is referenced in the packaging. I read a lot about foam beds having an odor. I did not experience an odor with any of these in the slightest, even when first opening. You will want deep pocket sheets/pads/protectors. We have a variety of linens and regular sheets just do not cut it with these. Ashley did not cut any corners on standard bed size measurements and all of these fully fit the frame they are on, one is actually slightly too big. That coupled with the height, you need deep pocket sheets. The beds offer pressure relief but don't suck you in. I like a firm bed and I would classify these as firm. It's my hope that a firmer bed will last longer. The beds do respond to more weight/pressure but certainly aren't pillowy soft. I felt like I was able to change posotions easily. A parter's weight/movements can still be felt but not to the extent of an interspring. Choice of foundation will probably impact this as well. These do not sleep too hot for us. However, being children's beds, they are not loaded down with heavy blankets and comforters so I can't speak to how they might retain heat if that was the case. As I said, time will be the biggest test. Our previous $1,200 mattress lasted less than 4 years. Hell, for $150/bed this was worth the gamble. Comparatively, these only have to last 6 months to be equivalent in price longevity. Tl/dr.... Reasons for buying: Price, brand/company I have heard of, all foam construction with thick dense base.
