Pros: Responsive surface, excellent support, managable price point, excellent quality, great warranty and free shipping.
Cons: Unless you prefer a firm bed, spend the $120 for the separate topper from Novaform.
The Bottom Line: Don't be suckered paying double for brandname, skip clones promising quality for half price. Buy unassuming Novaform, and be psyched you got the best deal and most comfortable ride.

| zibbit's Full Review: NovaForm Elite-Isotonic Memory Foam Mattress Toppe... |
The previous review was very comprehensive, and I have to agree with all of the points mentioned.
Same month, we purchased the NovaForm King from Costco.
We love this bed!
Both are arthritis sufferers, I have spinal stenosis and radiculopathy, suffice to say, sleep in our house is a circus act. Moving from this bed, to that bed, the couch, etc.
The NovaForm mattress is excellent, I agree that NovaForm's 4 pd. density foam compared to Tempurpedic, is superior, and not rock like. The Tempurpedic takes its sweet time to re"fluff", and I don't enjoy rolling back into my old "hole" from an hour ago in the mattress.
NovaForm poofs back in a fraction of the time, and is comfortable, responsive, and really aligns my back in a way that avoids the pinching in the lower back from improper alignment.
We also feel after a month or two, we could use a little more "cush", so we also thought to purchase the NovaForm topper at Costco, $127, a complete bargain. We will be inserting it into a deep mattress cover, as suggested by previous poster to keep any slippage to a minimum.
(thanks for the great tip!!)
I haven't been worried about the durability of this mattress versus the Tempurpedic or other 5.3 density brands, since COSTCO has the most incredible return policy, I am confident that they will stand by this purchase. I would not be so sure if it was purchased at Linens and Things or other outlets.
Bottom line, this is the way to go to get a comfortable price point entry on this fabulous foam technology.
We did not purchase the foundation, and first tried to use it on our old (1 year old!!!) box springs, as the matching mattress completely broke down within a year. Problem was, within a week, we noticed the Novaform wanting to sink in the same places as the Denver Mattress Company's Doctor's Choice (HA!) that it replaced. We quickly determined that the box springs were really the problem with that new bed, and bailed on those also.
We purchased a platform bed with a comprehensive slat support system for our Novaform (Over stock . com, free shipping, many styles and GREAT price).
This solved everything with the sink holes we had been living with on our Denver Mattress "Doctors' Choice". (We think it must be called Dr.s Choice not because they recommend it for good sleep, but because it jacks up their profits when you seek the necessary care from sleeping on that bed!!!)
Get the Novaform, hit it with the topper, and sleep like a baby.
