So first off, delivery was excellent. Two delivery men got this thing through the tightest narrow hallway ever without my help and it was perfectly fine, don't fear if it will fit.
The mattress is a medium-firm but also very soft and deep countouring whilst supportive. I believe this mattresss has some of the thickest high density foam (not low density cheap stuff) ever produced in a mattress, I believe 8 inches with another 8 inches of coils plus the euro pillow top. Its supposed to have more HDF than the best tempur pedic. The thing I think has about 2000 coils in the king and 1600 in the queen (correct if wrong). The mattress is super cool and does not sleep hot. The edge support is insanely good, in fact shocking. We have it on a $150 wooden amazon headboard bed (Allewie King Size Bed frame). This frame holds this 250 lb mattress and my wife, dog, me without any creaking or support issues at all. The headboard is also high enough for this 16.5" beast. Yes, I put a $2k mattress on a $150 bed and its actually perfect. The luxury foam experience is something ive never felt before. The mattress is insanely supportive and feels medium firm when you first jump on it but then over the course of 20-30 seconds you slowly sink down on your heavy pressure points. Cheap foam mattresses take like 3 seconds to sink in to, so its actually crazy to experience this for the first time with the very slow but deep enough sinkage, its almost like cold gel. The motion transfer is very good as well, don't notice my wife moving around yet we can tell its good and not over sinking for when we make spicy time. Overall, S-tier mattress. Costco return policy to back it up and 20 year limited warranty. I missed the sale and paid $2100ish with tax but im monitoring for any future sales for price matching. Any questions, let me know.

I love it, money well spent. Very firm when brand new as its high density foam that takes very long to break in the slightest, then softens out to a medium firm. Countouring gel feel that has lots of support, surface is slippery smooth you could sleep on it without a sheet. You will love it once broken in, at first i almost hated it. I will use this mattress til the day I die, and hopefully never have to buy another.
Yeah i almost returned it from the stomach sleeping firmness, then over time your back gets used to what a proper alignment feels like and the top foam starts to soften up its 8 lb density. It took almost 2 weeks before I realized how amazing it was and that my back was used to being in an improper sunken in cheap memory foam pit. People aren't lying about adjustment periods for your back on a proper spinal aligned bed like this, you just have to get through it then randomly it will just become your preferred style. If I went back to cheap sinking memory foam, I would be in pain.
3 week update: Softened out a whole lot. At first is was very firm, softens out to a medium firm. I hated it the first week as my lower back is used to deep sinking and improper spine alignment, I almost returned it. My back straightened out and I wake up without any pain. Its so luxurious I will never buy a different mattress for the rest of my life.
grabbed this on the christmas day sale. we’re 3 nights in and my girlfriend (side/stomach sleeper) who said “i’ll never be able to sleep on this, it’s too firm” just had a 97 sleep score on her oura app last night…it’s about as good of a mattress you’ll get for the price.
I just went through the same thing. 20 year old Tempur-Pedic (held up amazingly well and had mattress protector) and bought the same Costco Novaform 16.5" Platinum Luxury Hybrid Euro Top Mattress, and you are correct, the king size rings in @250lbs, beast indeed. It was advertised as a medium, so I was very surprised to find that it was incredibly firm once delivered. I have it set up on an adjustable base. Was thinking I would return it, but after a few nights it started to soften up while still holding its shape. I am thinking it may be a winner after all, but I’m going to give it a few more weeks to decide. It’s a HUGE difference in feel from my old Tempur-Pedic.
I got the Novaform 16.5" Platinum Luxury Hybrid Euro Top Mattress from Costco and it seems to be around what you’re describing, I like it. It was on a sale when I ordered it a few weeks ago, but it will probably go on sale again sometime later this year.
Hi! Sorry you’re waking up hot! Has the warmth coincided with using the mattress pad? Fiberfill (especially lofty) acts as a thermal buffer that traps warm air, resulting in a warmer microclimate on top of the bed, while also reducing how much you can feel the mattress’s cooling effect. I have a cheap Protect A Bed mattress protector from Costco without the loft and thought it was less “nice” than the loft I was used to and used on my guest bed. With my prior mattress, I used a mattress pad that was very similar to what you have, until I didn’t get it dried in time after washing and had to put the Protect A Bed mattress protector on instead, which resulted in noticeably cooler, less sweaty sleep. I was still often hot because of the mattress (and my dogs), but was much cooler than I had been. I now use it on the novaform platinum and it fits the mattress (sides are super stretchy and big). I’ve been waiting for Costco to get the Protect A Bed (or similar) mattress protectors back (love a good Costco deal) and still need one for my guest bed, so looked recently on Protect A Bed’s website and they have some okay priced (not Costco priced) as well as much more expensive cooling mattress protectors I may splurge on if Costco doesn’t ever get something comparable back. We do keep the house very cool at night and sleep with a fan on (mostly for the noise, but the air circulation doesn’t hurt), but I sleep super hot and am reportedly a furnace at night, as are my 2 big dogs we can’t get out of the bed, and the only time I wake up uncomfortable is after hours of my dog insisting on laying under the covers with her whole body pressed along mine and inching over and partially on top of me every time I move to get space till I’m stuck on my side at the very edge of the mattress (yay for the side support so I don’t feel like I’m falling off anymore). With this mattress, I wake up needing space and appreciating it feels a little cooler when she’s not basically on top of me, but I’m not hot, sweaty, and miserable like I was with the prior mattress (again much worse I think with the lofty fiberfill mattress pad). Good luck!
Same. Was a little reluctant at first not being able to try it out, but so far we love it. Switched from a 20 year old seal that was beat to crap so it's quite the upgrade.
