Lifespan & Pain Relief

About one-fifth of its owners report significant body impressions or a loss of support occurring within three years of ownership. Some owners report that sagging of the bed can cause at least some discomfort and back pain.

Conforming Ability & Couple Friendly

iComfort mattresses tend to moderately conform to one's body resulting in well-distributed support and pressure-point relief. iComfort mattresses provide no or limited bounce, which is often considered as not so friendly for couples.

Initial Odor & Sleeping Hot

Many owners report unpleasant smell when the mattress is unpackaged at first, which makes Serta iComfort unsuitable for those who are allergic or very sensitive to smell. Users who live in warmer climates report heat trap problem.

Motion Isolation & Noise

If you and your partner often complain about being disturbed when one of you get up or change positions in the night, it means your mattress performs terrible in motion isolating. It’s reported that Serta iComfort, as a memory foam mattress brand, has outstanding reputation in this aspect. And, the mattress itself is silent under all conditions, but the foundation may make noise in some instances.

Topper Usage & Break-in Period

To improve softness and comfort, about 7% of owners say that they need to add a topper to the mattress. Break-in time tends to be slightly longer than that of the average mattress.

Move & Handle

The thicker and more expensive iComfort models may be cumbersome and difficult for one person to move, transport and maneuver.
