DynastyMattress-Luxury 12-Inch Memory Foam Mattress

I've had this bed for about 6 months now. I travel frequently, and loved staying in hotels because my old mattress was so horrible. Now I can't stand sleeping anywhere but my bed!

The mattress was very well packaged, and yes it smelled for a week or so but after a day of airing out it was good enough to sleep on. I didn't get very good sleep for the first week anyway because I woke up everytime I moved in the middle of the night and the new mattress didn't react the way I was used to my old mattress reacting.

The bed seems to "break in" and become less stiff after about a month or so. Now when I wake up in the morning, I feel like I slept so deeply that I became part of the mattress overnight. I wake up with no aches or pains, refreshed, and ready to get up and go. And every night when I climb into bed, I look forward to sinking into the foam and forgetting my day. And the cats can have a wrestling match at the end of the bed at 2am without shaking me awake!

At the price offered, it cannot be beaten!

**** Update**** 12/2008

I've had this bed for 18 months now. I stand by my previous review. This bed is the biggest reason I hate traveling now. I've not woken up with an ache or pain from poor sleeping since I got this bed, and the price is still well below that of a conventional mattress. No sags or problems still as wonderful as it was 14 months ago when I wrote my first review.

What are you waiting for?

***Update 10/2012

I can't believe it's been 5 years. The bed is still, by far, the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. Still no problems, still a great night's sleep.

I received the mattress from Dynasty Mattress via UPS 11 days ago. Before ordering, I called Dynasty and spoke with a nice fellow in California. He had a Chinese accent, but he spoke English clearly. I wanted to know if the air-vacuumed package had the size marked on the outside before I opened it. He said it did, and it did. He told me the mattress was made in China, and would take 4 days to ship from CA to GA. It took 5 business days via UPS.

When it arrived, the UPS driver rang my doorbell, and presented his electronic pad for my signature. When I wanted to actually see the package before signing, he seemed put off. He climbs into his truck and basically drops my mattress into the street on its end. I checked for the size, and the Cal-King was checked. I also could see the packaging wasn't damaged. I figured it had been dropped a few times from CA to GA anyway.

Now he looks at me like, you're going to take it from here. From the street, down my driveway, and into my house. I say, "don't you have a hand truck?" Then he tries to pick the package up to his shoulder. Ain't gonna happen. The guy is about 160 lbs, and the package is every bit of 110 lbs. Long story short, he gets his hand truck, and we get it in my house.

The package is, like I wrote, every bit of 110 lbs. It is 6 feet tall and about 18 inches in diameter. There are two layers of clear plastic sheeting around it. I was able to put it on my own hand truck and go up my longish stairway (20 steps) by myself. I would not suggest a female or small person trying this. It's a bit awkward.

Once in the bedroom, I put it on the box springs, cut each plastic layer off, and unrolled the mattress. It has a zippable top cover, and the rest of the mattress is in a permanent cloth sack. It took a few hours for it to completely inflate.

The final thickness was 11 inches. My old contour sheet and pad barely fit.

There was a slight smell. I thought it was like wet latex paint. Although there was the slight odor, I started sleeping on it that night. No problems such as headaches or anything like that. I opened the windows and ran a fan for 2 days. The smell was completely gone in 8 days.

As others have stated, the mattress is soft and cradles you. I was looking for this, and I'm enjoying it. It's a definite improvement over my 20 year old Serta Perfect Sleeper. My back was aching every morning, and I could feel the coil springs. My back isn't aching on wakeup now. It's not a miracle, but it is nice. It feels plush and inviting. I like it.

$700 is a lot to gamble on an internet mattress. It is for me, anyhow. So far, everything is "as advertised."

I just received this mattress 1/2 an hour ago. I haven't slept on it yet but I wanted to give a comparison to the Tempur-Pedic Deluxe model since this listing says it feels like the Tempur-Pedic Deluxe. Earlier today my wife and I went to a mattress store that had the Tempur-Pedic models and well as the Sealy Posturpedic. Prior to getting this mattress today we laid on all the Tempur-Pedic models and all the Sealy Models. You can definitely tell a difference between each model in each line. The Tempur-Pedic Deluxe is the most comfortable to us. We laid on the mattress and tried to really absorb the feeling and memorize how it felt. We came home and then this one was delivered. To both of us, and to our great pleasure it feels exactly the same. No better, no worse exactly the same.

It was easy to set up. The cover is already on all the different layers. The mattress itself is delivered rolled up and it is heavy. I am guessing it weighs 120 lbs at least though I could be wrong due to it being large and bulky and hard to handle. To set it up I just put the roll on the bed, cut away at the plastic it is wrapped in and in 5 minutes it had unvacuum packed itself.

One comment I would like to make regarding this mattress and the return policy. The sellers state they will accept a return if you are not happy with it, but you will be responsible to ship it back to them. In the event that you do not like this mattress, keep in mind that you WILL NOT be able to ship it back to them in the same manner that they shipped it to you because they had the entire roll incredibly vacuum sealed and it was rolled like a rug. I think it would be next to impossible for you to roll it as tight and as small as they did unless you have some huge industrial vacuum machine so your shipping charges would be much more than theirs. But if you are concerned you won't like it go find a mattress store that sells the Tempur-Pedic Deluxe because like I said, it feels exactly the same.

I did a lot of research before buying this mattress. A LOT. Went to a couple of stores to check out the tempurpedic just to make sure that I like the memory foam feel. Visited dozens of mattress review websites. Trolled amazon for hours looking at their selection. I knew that I wasn't about to drop 3 g's on a mattress, so it basically came down to Dynasty and Sleep Innovations. I chose Dynasty because of the 5 inches of memory foam (as opposed to 2.5 or 3 for SI) and the dual flow base.

From order placement to arrival at my front door, it took 8 days. The package weighed over 100 lbs. If you're not a huge dude, you should probably get some help to move it. The cardboard box was ripped to shreds, but the mattress was well protected inside its two layers of heavy duty plastic.

I had built a slatted platform bed frame the weekend before its arrival (much cheaper and better quality than the matching one sold by Dynasty, IMO), so I opened the mattress on the frame and watched as it quickly came to form in about 4 hours.

My biggest concern by far was the potential smell. All the bad reviews on off-brand mattresses knock the smell. What smell? You mean the mild, fresh paint-ish smell? The one that went away almost completely after 2 days? The one where you can only smell it if you shove your nose into the mattress? Oh, ok, I guess that might be the most annoying thing in the universe if your sense of smell is equivalent to a dog's.

The first night on the mattress (literally about 8 hours after unwrapping) was a bit of a rollercoaster; my body was clearly trying to adjust to the new feeling. But every night after that has gotten exponentially more comfortable. Now, having slept in that bed for 2 weeks, I can honestly say that it is the most comfortable bed I've ever owned. I spent the night at my buddy's summer home last weekend on a regular mattress and it was f****ing awful.

So, I guess my only knock on this mattress is that every time you sleep away from home you will be miserable. And now that I think about it, that actually might be a problem for some people. Seriously. So don't say I didn't warn you.

**This is a real review, not some BS served up by a Vine member or an employee of Dynasty or whatever. Just a guy who lucked out on a great purchase. I'll gladly answer any questions you have about the mattress. I know how awful it is to try to find a good one.

We have a very ornate water bed with built in headboard storage and light fixtures, plus a mirrored canopy. Its water mattress had lost what little firmness it used to have and we wanted to try a firmer, yet comfortable mattress. The rest of the bed system was too good to just throw away so we began looking for a replacement mattress.

We figured a memory foam mattress should be able to fit on the water bed platform and within the wood side boards. We began looking at the Tempur-pedics in local bed shops and were astonished to find their top of the line Cal-King was over $6,000! Sure, it was comfortable, but I figured there had to be other comparable choices available at MUCH better prices.

After extensive research we discovered this mattress and all the great reviews it had. At this time all reviews are 5-star except two. One was a complaint about the service (not the mattress). Since Amazon has always stood behind anything bought from them, a service issue could at worst only be a temporary inconvenience. The other negative review was (incredibly) from some yahoo who never even bought this mattress. I figured he was likely a salesman who sells those $6,000 mattresses.

The mattress arrived in about a week in perfect condition. It was sealed in 3 layers of airtight plastic and had an outer layer of cardboard over that. As others have said, it is HEAVY! I could not pick it up, just slide and roll it to the bed for unpacking. The diameter was just a bit too much for me to lock my arms far enough around it and lock my fingers together for a better grip.

Once unpacked the mattress expanded to its full 12" thickness in about an hour. The dimensions were exactly as advertised, allowing the mattress to fit perfectly within the wood frame and about 2" above the side boards. This made the old padded side board rail covers unnecessary. The mattress is firm enough to prevent any conflicts with any of the wood frame.

I was expecting a heavy chemical smell, but none was noticeable unless you lie on the mattress. At close quarters the smell was very slight and not unpleasant kind of like a very faint vanilla and alcohol mixture. It was not strong enough to prevent use the very first night.

As for comfort the mattress was a bit firmer than expected, very much like the most expensive Tempur-pedic we tested. This was exactly the level of support my wife was hoping to get, but slightly stiffer than I prefer.

What a bargain this mattress is! It only cost about 10% as much as the one we were about to purchase and we really cannot discern any appreciable difference between the two products.
