I bought a 12” Zinus Green Tea queen mattress in May of 2017 and it’s still like brand new! I love it today as much as when it arrived! No deformities or weakening over the years and in 2020 I bought 2 more for my granddaughters. They love theirs as well have experienced no problems. Best mattresses we’ve ever owned!

I bought a Zinus for my guest room years ago and it’s great! Even my elderly parents like it when they visit. Get the 12inch one, it’s worth the small up charge over the thinner models.

My last two mattresses were at vastly different price points and I honestly enjoyed both of them. I had a Zinus memory foam mattress, the one with green tea, for a total of 7 years. I loved it and the only reason I got rid of it was due to a size change. Right now I’m rocking a Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme and I also really like it. If you’re budget conscious though, I don’t think it’s worth it to splurge on this compared to the Zinus or any of its competitors. I have yet to get into the really high end stuff, or unique materials such as wool or latex. Maybe I will at some point but I will wait for this Tempurpedic to need replacing. I know that Tempurpedic isn’t even close to the best according to most, but if the TempurPedic for me was a 10/10, the Zinus wasn’t far behind. Maybe an 8.5 or 9 in comparison. You can’t beat that for being close to a tenth of the price.

I have a 7 year old Zinus 12 inch and it's still great. I just got 8 inch, I think, for my kids beds. Theirs are super comfy as well but it's only been a couple of months so I'm unsure about longevity.

FWIW, I recently stayed in an Airbnb and slept on a Zinus mattress from 2018. Best night of sleep I’ve ever had, woke up with Zero aches or pains. Primarily a Side Sleeper with occasional stomach. I currently have an Amerisleep AS5 and while it’s held up great it’s too plush to provide the necessary back support I need. Prior to that I ordered a Casper which was unbearable and returned after 3 days. I went down a rabbit hole, multiple reviews and the reality is that everyone is different and therefore will have different results between mattresses. It’s honestly overwhelming, not in a good way, in the amount of companies and products out there. I decided it’s best to order something I had a great experience with. As someone wrote on this sub it’s worthwhile to consider a cheaper mattress, replacing it often than an expensive one which might be a gamble. I’ve also considered Costco for the return policy but saw that there are multiple negative reviews for all their products. I would say the best way is to try the mattress out as even if for a short while at a store, before blindly ordering one online.

I currently have the Sealy Mount Auburn purchased in 2021. I previously had a cheap Zinus MF, and it was definitely better in comparison. However, I found it to be quite firm and started the long journey of matress toppers to gain better pressure point relief for side sleeping. The matress is in perfect condition with no sagging, but after 4 years, I feel it's just not for me. It's not bad but not great. I highly recommend a sturdy wooden frame/foundation as it did improve my comfort level some. Buying from Costco is always a win with the service and return policies, so trying it is literally risk-free.

Way too hard - like sleeping on the floor

Once in my life I spent a huge sum of money on an Ortho mattress for my wife and I. Decent mattress, lasted pretty well except it was a single pillow top so we couldn't flip it but we did rotate it frequently. Fast forward to 2012 when I purchased my first memory foam mattress for the RV I was living in from Amazon. It was amazing! I hadn't slept so well in so many years. I've since bought 4 more, 2 in twin size for my son's room and 2 queens for me. It's time for a new mattress for the new house. Can I do better in terms of value/performance than the Zinus Green Tea mattresses I've purchased? Edit: I really do know how to spell Amazon.
