The mattress is very cushioning. The hight did not get to 14 within 72 hours. The mattress did rise to 12.5/13 inches. Unlike several other foam mattresses in a box I have ordered in the last 10 years, this one doesnt expand quickly and you will need to plan accordingly to allow for shipping and 72 hours of inflation time. 2 hours after unpacking the 14 mattress was only 7 inches high. It takes at least 3 or 4 days to be ready for sleeping on. You do not want to set the mattress upright during this inflation period because it will take on the shape of any bending or curve as it sits. We found that out 24 hours into it and made sure to lay it flat on the floor, then it flattened out properly. If you struggle with body strength then you will have a hard time getting in and out of this bed. The comfort is very plush and cozy, however the support might not be there in the hip and lower back. Sex is difficult somewhat because there is a sinking motion when you move about on top of it. There was no chemical smells or stains, the bed was intact. This mattress is very comforting and provides a lot of inches and material between you and the bed frame. It is NOT medium firm it is plush and soft. I will update with support comments in about 60/90 days.
It takes at least 48/60 hours to reach full size.
