I realize Nectar fans probably won't like my conclusion, and there is no disrespect intended toward Nectar or those who like it! I tried to keep in mind that many people do love this mattress, but it just isn't for me. Rather than accept a free product as some reviewers do, I paid full price with the intent of giving my honest opinion, and hoped I would like it enough to keep. Alas, I will be carefully documenting the return because I've read comments that the return process could be problematic. I'll give you a full unbiased report on how that goes. Also, to clarify, I sleep on my side about 75% of the time, and my back about 25% of the time.
True dedication
The mattress I've bought 2 of is the Loom and Leaf from Saatva. Its a direct to consumer memory foam mattress. White glove delivery because they dont squish it in a box. It gives the perfect amount of soft and firmness you might be looking for, James
Definitely prefer the Purple mattress then? Did you ever do a review of it?
@@Hobo0NDStreet he's done multiple, check out his videos on it
As long as your review is fair an unbiased nobody can complain about your conclusions. You do a great job of playing devil's advocate for all products.
Appreciate this, especially the observations regarding the ability to turn and move as I move a lot. The last mattress I bought was a super cheap, no frills, standard build extra firm mattress I needed to get by with for just a few months at a training program away from home. I liked it so much that I hauled it home and swapped it with my regular mattress. I've had it for something just shy of 20 years but it's finally begun to sag. It's actually hard to find that kind of cool, extra firm, old style build type of mattress now.
I remember when you purchased and tested your Purple mattress and you said that it was a game changer for you. That really stuck with me. I've seen other reviews for the Purple mattress and most of them say the exact same thing. I'm glad you reviewed a memory mattress and was able to compare it to the Purple mattress because that gives a real comparison that is usuable.
We love when you are brutally honest, and we enjoy the way it almost pains you to be honest. Lots of love.
Such a kind man, genuinely concerned about returning that.Thank you for another awesome review!
Thank you for your dedication, I never want to buy any of these products but every video is still very entertaining to watch. Keep it up!
I agree. I've yet to see one I'd buy. James gives every one more than a fair shot though.
@@ItsDeacon wot
Over the years we've used a Tempur-Pedic memory foam mattress, a Simmons inner-spring mattress, a Sleep Number bed, tried a couple of different bed-in-a-box brands and finally settled on an Avocado mattress, which uses a combination of inner-spring and memory foam to hit that "Goldilocks zone" in comfort for us. It's spendy (almost as much as the Tempur-Pedic and about the same as the Sleep Number), but as side sleepers who tend to roll around a lot we still think this is the best mattress we've ever owned after 2 years of use.
I had the Nectar mattress and as you I gave up on the mattress after about 9 months. Most of the things you encountered are what I experienced. Their return process worked for me but what I ended up doing was I donated the mattress to a non-profit organization and they provided me a letter of acceptance which I emailed to Nectar and in turn they refunded my money. I ended up going with their sister/parent company Dream Cloud Sleep mattress, it's a more expensive line product but I'm very pleased with it and have been using it now for a few years now. Thanks for your review.
Thank you for this review. Thankful for actually trying in. Nice to get an honest review. 🎉
Awesome review. Love this channel! Thank you for your dedication.
I'm strictly a side sleeper on a twin bed, so the "cavern" pretty much is the same on either side. I have a different memory foam mattress now, but I'm switching for a cooling nectar mattress. I tested it in store, and I loved it! I'm sorry it didn't work for you, though!
Thankyou. I really appreciate this info. Your facial expressions while describing it says it all.
Thanks for your unbiased reviews!
Everyone has a bias.. honest review would probably be better
Your user name is offensive. I suspect that was your intention… To offend as many people as you could. Get a life.

We recently bought a new mattress. All of the furniture stores had the Nectar mattress and were really pushing it. Both my husband and I laid on it in the store and neither one of us liked it. Both of us have back issues and it did not see like it would be good for back issues. We ended up getting a Serta Perfect Sleeper hybrid (springs and memory foam) and it was a good choice for us.
Can you show in the update how you repackaged that back up for return? I can imagine that would be worthy of a video on its own. Thanks once again for taking one for the team!
Depending on where you live. They work with a local company to come pick him up from your home. There is no reboxing needed.
You need giant pasta maker.
There is no "repackaging" they come and take as it lays there.
@@austins6210 Yeah I was going to say, without an industrial machine, not sure anyone could box that back up. My memory foam mattress came in a reasonable sized box and there is not a snow balls chance it could ever fit in their again by myself.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I agree that the conforming aspect is an issue for people who roll in the night. I had just a thick (6”) memory foam topper and I hated it. I would literally have to wake up to change position…had to push myself out of the cavern, turn, and find a new spot. I also it found it uncomfortably hot, although they have come up with a cool sleep foam since then. I do use a thin (2”) cool memory foam topper now.
Thank you your review is very helpful regarding the slow respond rate when changing position. I was deciding this and the Casper and this review really help me understand the slow response of the memory foam, which I never have the experience of lying on.
Great review. Loved the edge support part. That's very important
Half of the products aren’t available here but it’s always good to see what’s out there.
Keep up the good work fella and stay safe.
My wife and I bought one and we struggled with it for a bit. We called them to return it and they sent us a foam pad to try. That actually helped us enjoy it a lot.
In that case, couldn't you have just bought a cheaper mattress and throw a foam pad on it?
Thank you for an honest review!
How fitting that before I watched this video, I got an ad for the Purple mattress - almost as if it was an ominous sign about the conclusion of this review and a subtle reminder about which mattress James really thinks is better 😅
Same here
Me, too!
🤣🤣🤣
I have a Purple mattress! Very unique. I too did the "egg test" and it passed with flying chickens! P.S. Purchased my Purple Hybrid almost 3 years ago and love it with my Purple Harmony pillow and I only use the Purple bed sheets (plus my Purple bed frame and I'm sitting on my Purple seat cushion).
@@Steve_in_NJ That's a lot of purple! 🤣 But it's great you're enjoying yours so much. I'd like to get one someday.
I am moving this month, Thank you for the honest review. Saved a lot of money. thanks to you.
Great review, James. I recently bought a brand new mattress, and it was between a Tempur-Pedic, Purple, and Nectar. I fell in love with the Purple 3, and my wife really loved the Tempur-Pedic. There were three different Nectar mattresses in store to try. The most expensive one was about $2,000 for a King-sized, and it was fine. The Tempur-Pedic we looked at was $3800, and honestly the top of the line Nectar we had tried felt slightly less comfortable. For $1800 though, I figure it's a fine trade-off. This is anecdotal as could be, but the salesman in the store and I were chatting it up about different things, and she mentioned that the Nectar rep that comes by even admits to not buy the lowest end model. True or not, I can attest to the lower comfort quality. I tried resting on it, and it's simply nowhere near the quality of the other mattresses I tried. This is probably a personal bias, but I found the mattress at my house that I am replacing, which is a Sealy from Big Lots, felt more comfortable. Base Nectar mattress simply feels too cheap.
Your corvette is as old as I am
I enjoy your videos ! You're so funny and super thorough in your reviews 👌
If you want to do another mattress review I would suggest the Allswell. I too am someone who turns in my sleep and am mostly a side sleeper. I tried and returned several mattresses including the original purple mattress but I personally just don't do well on foam, I would have loved to try the new purple mattress but I just couldn't afford the price tag. I eventually chose to try the Allswell, this was before walmart bought the company and I have been enjoying it for about 2 years now.
I have to say, "Most highly advertised" it must depend on what region of the country you live in. I have never heard of the Nectar mattress, around here you see the Casper Mattress advertised.
Like that makes a difference, they are both memory foam.
Great review though. 🙂🙂
Thank you for taking the time to do the great review.
I've had my Nectar for about two years. Queen size. It came with two pillows only, would have loved the extra sheet and pillow case set. We also added the motorized frame with head and foot massage. I have never loved a bed more - in fact when sleeping other places and on higher end mattresses - I truly miss my Nectar sleep. I no longer have back or neck pain from sleeping. The motorized frame is wonderful for sleeping slightly elevated, sitting up to watch tv, or elevating my legs. Great and honest review, as always! It's true - it's not for everyone, but compared to the memory foam hybrid we used to have - this one is soft and contouring at the same time. I also start sleep on my side most of the time and end up on my back. The edge sleep "drop off" I don't find to be a noticeable issue for me. I've slept on crappy mattresses for years, and this investment for us was well worth it. With two people, the mattress holds up great. My other one felt like a balloon and often changed shape when getting in and out together - this one doesn't do that at all! And for me I love the pillows, they give my neck the support and contour I need. Hubby prefers a flatter pillow so I have claimed them both! I can say if we ever decide to go up to King, we will go with Nectar again for sure. My only one tidbit of a complaint is the L bar that holds the mattress from sliding down when elevated isn't adjustable, which I would prefer to not have a huge gap between headboard and mattress, as my pillows fall in on occasion - but that problem has been for every mattress I've ever had, so nothing new with that. I believe it is related to our sleigh bed frame that the motorized frame fits inside of. Just need to push mattress up every couple of months for us any way. ;)
Ty for a honest review
Thank you for an honest review that explains both pro’s and con’s. So tired of every mattress tested being glorified.
Thank you for being honest
I have had a Nectar Mattress for over a year, I like it but I sleep on my back. I don't think it's great or stands out but it definitely feels fine. Thanks for your honest review
Love your videos! Curious - is that orange circle behind the headboard a light or a painting? It’s beautiful!
Came here to say the nectar is my favorite mattress ever but I totally respect your conclusion like everyone likes different things in their mattresses
I don't think there will ever be 1 that everyone loves
I tried this mattress out early last year but did not enjoy the feel. Decided to go with the Nest Alexander Signature Hybrid I think they renamed it to the Sparrow Signature Hybrid. Either way, I have had it for over a year and love it. Best part is, you can unzip the top part of mattress in order to change out comfort foam and extend the life of bed.
We started out with a Tempurpedic way back when they were "the latest and greatest"... had to have them replace twice due to sinking in middle, (we spoon). About 3 years ago we went with a 100% organic natural latex, best thing we ever did. All latex, no springs 3 layers: soft, medium, firm - queen split. I have mine set up different than Hubby and we still spoon and it's great! We are very happy with this mattress, made by a company in AZ been around for 30 years. Their pillows are excellent and the price was cheaper than Purple but more expensive than this one you reviewed. We already had a platform bed frame so we didn't need to get one. We hated the fact that memory foam does exactly what you said and in winter, turning over on your pillow was startling as it gets harder in colder conditions. Funny story, my hubby took his Tempurpedic pillow to a boy scout camp in winter in Colorado- temps were in the teens. As they packed up he tossed his pillow to my brother in law and it knocked the breath out of him, it was so hard and heavy. He couldn't believe Sam slept on it! His face was horrified at the thought. Memory foam actually caused more issues than it cures. Keep it in space at zero gravity, that where it belongs. Smiles and blessings...
What’s your mattress company called?
@@Adrsdzws Sleepez in AZ.
Thanks for sharing your experience ❤️
Being a belly sleeper, I love Nectar. I wanted memory foam but most seem for back/side sleepers and my old Ikea mattress was giving me issues (wicked back pain). Within a few weeks of this mattress, it mostly went away. That firmness was key as without support, my lumbar wasn't supported and stretched.
YMMV as it comes down to what is right for you, but for a belly sleeper... I love it (and I feel that part was not tested but again, we're all different). The pillows are also pretty nice imo.
I just ordered this mattress & im a bit skeptical after reading loads of bad reviews but then some good reviews and promising RUclips video reviews. I am a belly sleeper myself and I don’t move around much in my sleep I don’t really tend to sleep on the edge either but in the middle. I think I’ll like this mattress & I can always add a foam pad on top to add extra support if needed. I really hope I like this mattress currently using a twin box spring with a foam pad on top. Upgrading to the Queen nectar. We shall see.
@@danoelker1144 what's your update Dan?
@@Meme-hi5gm it’s been 8 months sleeping in my nectar. I gotta say it’s totally worth every penny! I got the adjustable bed frame as well. Total I spent like $1,500 but totally worth it! Im never waking up in pain even when I had suffered from a back injury it got me through.
@@danoelker1144 Thank you!!
I have a memory foam mattress that's more firm at the start. it doesn't dent nearly as much as yours. Thus when I roll over it's not that big a deal with climbing the cliffs of doom. You'd think a more firm mattress would be uncomfortable, but after I got used to it after a few days (not weeks) then it was really nice. I sleep more soundly than I ever did on a pillow top spring mattress.
Very helpful! Thank you!
I still have the original Tempurpedic mattress. It's around 17yo. Still good and since I have two Tempurpedic covers to alternate when washing It's still in its original form. They don't make the original anymore which is a shame. I think the mattress is still in good condition because it's only used for sleeping and not for watching TV, reading or relaxing. Once I'm out of bed I'm out of it for the day. Thanks for your honest review .
Valid points for your video! I have had my nectar mattress for over two years and absolutely love it! I think you missed one of the biggest pros of a memory foam mattress though... the adjustable bed frame! It's a total game changer. Great for watching TV or reading in bed and sleeping elevated some when your not feeling well.
@@loveforeignaccents Yeah, the adjustable frame isn't super attractive, but it isn't ugly by any means. To each their own, but for me it's usefulness outweighs it's looks.
@adamc1906 Hey do you still have n use that Nectar mattress? I was also very surprised that he didn't talk about the adjustable functionality of the bed at all. I was curious to see how hard it was to set up, how loud it was when changing positions... stuff like that.
Hope you are still enjoying your Nectar!
Glad this confirms I was right to go with a latex mattress. While they are expensive, they last soooo long and are much more responsive for turning over than memory foam.
We love our Nectar! It was an adjustment. I'm overweight, arthritic knees, a side sleeper and shift a few times a night. My husband has back issues and is a side/edge sleeper. We feel more rested and less pain. It also sleeps cooler. He needs soft and I, firm - this works for both. But it is entirely personal preference.
same (I'm overweight, sore right knee, a side sleeper and shift a few times a night.) I hate it!
Thank you ! I have degenerate disc disease and me and my girlfriend just got this delivered today. Excited to see how it works for my excruciating full back pain.
I recently got a Tuft and Needle original mattress. By looks it seems tuft and needle might be more supportive. Edge support is similar, and it took a couple nights to get used to, but I love the tuft and needle mattress I got, with a comparable price
I have suggested so many things to my family abt things u have reviewed and they have bought many of them. love these reviews
Your videos are so relaxing.
Thank you for this man. Mattress shopping is hard and I have no frame of reference...just the old uneven mattress I currently have
We purchased our first memory foam mattress (Tuft & Needle Original) a couple of years ago. It was okay for the first couple of months- I "got used to it"- but I have definitely come to hate it! It is too soft, hot, and I move a lot, and consequently wake up ache-y every morning. Time for a new mattress and it sure as heck won't be another memory foam!
i bought a bed in a box and mine was the Sweet Night reversible hybrid foam mattress with one side firm and the other side soft/med
It would be cool if you ever reviewed that one. It’s interesting because if you flip it it changes firmness. It inflated VERY fast. It’s memory foam and gel mixed.
I sleep on my back, always and in the edge also. This one has sturdy edges! please consider trying it out
I tried the Ghost Bed a few months ago and the all memory foam mattress was painful to use for me. I had to keep it for 30 days in order to exchange it. I exchanged it for the one with coils and that one is very comfortable. Not being able to move around on memory foam mattress is also not very comfortable for me.
Memory foam works best for me when it is the "pillow top" portion of a regular, firm mattress. I've never liked the idea of a whole mattress being made out of the stuff.
I got the premium Nectar mattress and I love it, I don't remember if its a mixed mattress tho 🤔
Exactly.
I don't think they make a full memory foam mattress. It's always some combination of layers with the bottom most(and biggest) layer being some type of harder foam.
Most likely because it's cheaper and also probably because if the entire mattress was made of the soft memory foam, you'd sink to the bottom. I'd imagine that wouldn't be very conformable or enjoyable.
I have a 4" memory foam topper and then a pillow topper on top of that.
I absolutely agree. I like a soft top, with firm support. People hate on old fashion spring mattresses, but they are great if you get a good one with a pillow top foam layer on top.
Great review!!
Just one question…
Which Nectar did you purchase? Basic Memory Foam, Hybrid, Premium or Hybrid Premium Copper?
I’m just wondering if there could be a difference between the basic memory foam and the Hybrid / Premium Copper. Thank you for any additional info!
I got a Nectar premium mattress, I ❤ it, I don't wake up with back pain anymore, my husband likes it too, he likes firm a matress but I like soft ones, we are both comfortable.
I decided to try a memory foam topper, The one I got isn't anything extraordinary but it has 2 sides, a softer and a firmer side. I figured I would use the softer side, I had to flip it over to the firmer side, my back was killing me after a few weeks, I really needed the firmer support.
Well, glad we paid the extra for a Sleep Number. I was tempted to try one of these. My worries were exactly as you stated. If I move with the "memory", how uncomfortable will it be until it remembers the new position.
I hope you try Helix soon. Love mine.
Love my nectar. The ONLY mattress I can get a full nights sleep on without my back killing me. I move a lot in my sleep. Side and back sleeper. And I sleep hot. So that’s saying a lot lol. I’ve tried 2 different memory foam mattresses in my rv and they both kill my back. So there is a difference for sure.
I have a memory foam, different brand, and even cheaper. I like it a lot. All you say about it is true as far as sinking, edge, etc. I love it anyway. Memory foam is the only mattress I've ever had that I feel comfortable on - no back pain even though I have a very bad back. Mattresses are very individual and I'm sure memory foam is not the best for everyone. I might like a Purple mattress but, unfortunately, I cannot afford one of those. A very firm mattress does hurt my back, my hips, my shoulders, etc. I need the soft/firm feel.
I would love to know what kind of mattress you use?
I have a purple mattress, and it is firm because of the spring base. Granted it it a purple 2 with only 2 inches of grid, but it is a lot firmer than the Tempurpedic and Tuft & Needle mattress I owned before it. If you like a soft mattress I would stick to memory foam.
I would also like to know what brand and model you use.
I have the nectar premier there like mid grade level. The pillows im not the biggest fan of and the mattress itself is a little more on the stiff side but overall ive gotten some of my best sleep on this thing. I havnt really encountered any of the memory problems you were it seems to bounce back for me almost instantly
After trying a few different beds, wifey and I settled on Purple 3. I love the Purple, not quite as much as our old Sleep Number but a close 2nd. She didn't like the Purple and exchanged it for a much more expensive Tempur Pedic memory foam mattress. We bought a new RV with a horrible mattress, bought a Nectar and it's not bad. James is right, no side support like the Purple but I do sleep well in the RV now and wifey likes it a lot. No sore backs in the morning. I still like my Purple better.
I’ve owned the nectar mattress for years now and I have to say I like it. Being a combination sleeper, at first, the mattress is great for when I sleep on my back but not great when I’m sleeping on my sides. After contacting Nectar, they sent me a mattress topper and I have no more complaint. At that time Nectar wasn’t really pushing advertising as hard as now but I made my decision based off consumer report website’s rating, which gave it decent rating for the price. I figured why not since they promised 365 days return.
A thousand times yes! I’ve had mine for a few weeks now and I want to like it but I done. The edges are terrible and I almost fall out of bed because the side sink so much! Aggravating! It is hard to turn over in as well and I can’t relax and enjoy tv because I sink in and can’t move. Please update on the return process when you can. I have slept on a purple and loved it. I should have just gotten one instead. 😩
Great review, thanks.
Thank you very much for this review. I knew at the 3:20 mark this wasn't the mattress for me. That lack of side support
A friend has a twin Nectar and when I went to visit I slept on it and was extremely comfortable. I bought an Emma mattress which was cheaper and it showed. I returned it. So I purchased the queen Nectar and at first I was like "what the hell?" It was not what I remembered. They sent me an extra mattress pad/covered which helped a little. Still within the 365 trial period but I think I'm finally ok with it. I do have to say, those pillows are some of the best I've ever had.
I like the adjustable frame they have but I like my purple mattress so much
Just got one and I definitely have to get used to this mattress, feels like i sink into the bottom layer and just hit a wall, overall the first night was good, didnt wake up with any aches or pains and also my previous mattress used to make my right leg fall asleep (prickly needle feel), didnt have that with the nectar mattress.
I think I've had this for about 8 months now. I really like it.
i had a memory foam bed and both loved it and hated it! the no pressure point pain was awesome but ya rolling over was a chore and even though it said it had cool sleep material i still would over heat and then had trouble rolling to a different spot . now i have a purple mattress and love it i can roll over with out trouble i dont over heat and its not a fight to get out of bed! i do still use my memory foam pillow though the purple pillow is good but a little to thick for me!
We purchased the Purple 2 because of your review. We are very pleased with our purchase, but it is an investment. We tested other mattresses at Dever Mattress, as they carry the Purple. We didn't care for the memory foam mattresses for the same reasons you described, it felt lumpy, for a few minutes, when ever we rolled over. Thank for all the great reviews, we have purchased many items that you gave good reviews on. Would say our favorite things are the Purple mattress and the Pizzazz.
We have had our purple 2 for two years and I pass out instantly every night. Such a great investment!
Was looking into purchasing a nectar, stumbled upon your review. Appreciate the honesty and thoroughness of it. 👍🏻
Very good review. Other reviews seemed more biased and bought. So this was refreshing.
We just purchased a Nectar Hybrid. Do far I love it. Very comfy
Yup. Same here! Returned it. And the process wasn’t smooth either. If your card changes in that time or expires, they make it really hard for you to get your money back.
I got a new mattress for the first time in decades a couple years ago and tried out a few in store. The first was a memory foam mattress and I immediately knew it wasn't for me. Every criticism you made at your two week point were exactly the things I couldn't stand after just a few seconds.
I’ve never really been a fan of memory foam beds or pillows. Because of exactly what you pointed out with how it contours to your body but then you feel like your falling into a hol.and I roll and sleep on my side. Thanks for this James 🤙
I have a nectar premier and love it. Memory foam mattresses can be polarizing. If you’re the type of person who likes memory foam I would HIGHLY suggest it. If you don’t like memory foam I’d get something else. It’s definitely a different experience to a pillow top.
Memory foam sleeps too hot for me and while I like the initial feeling, they're so uncomfortable to me once you hit that base layer of foam that's always so firm. I sleep on a high resilience foam mattress and I love it. It's the most uncommon type of foam mattress out there, but it sleeps cooler and the support feels more akin to that of a innerspring mattress.
can u name it?
Its the the most common type of foam but uncommon type for a foam mattress,foam used in orthopaedic beds high end sofa,car seat ect. Biggest question is, yours layered or 1 solid piece.
I really appreciate this review. The vast majority of Nectar reviews are paid/sponsored bull crap.
I sell mattresses for a living and we have a few nectars at my store. They are fine but you can find something better for the same price.
As a consumer it's absolutely frustrating that so many of these are paid/sponsored garbage. The comment section on those videos are even filled with bots spreading sponsored information. It's horrible.
What about the purple mattress? That one is also memory foam a bit more pricey though.
I have the Nectar Lush and I’ve personally loved it
Yeah, I had a memory foam mattress for a while. I got tired of working so hard just to roll over. Moved onto latex, then hybrid coils/latex.
Easily the best review I've seen on the Nectar.
I’m an edge sleeper too! Do you have a recommendation for a mattress with good edge support?
Can you comment on the heat retention (or not)? I wonder if this is more cooling than normal spring with a thick pillowtop.
I've had mine for about 2 years. I have to switch side of the bed ever week or my back starts hurting. The frame I got with it broke in about a month. The pillows you got I think are different then mine. Mine are way to thick for me to use under my head but everyone has a different preference on pillows.
What’s your thoughts on the purple mattress this far? I am considering getting a purple 3, but it’s a steep investment.
I have a nectar, its ok. Really wanted to try a purple but no one near me has a floor model. The nectar really softens with warmth, which i dislike. It is a good value if you get 3 or more years out of it, imo. Def need to try before you buy. Curious how the returm will go.
We are looking to buy a new mattress and I had put Nectar at the top of my list to consider. This review was so helpful for me to rule the mattress out. Like you, I move a lot in my sleep, so I am certain the problem you describe is something I would struggle with. Thanks for saving me the time and trouble of ordering, trying, and returning!
What did you go with it
I feel validated after years!! 😊 My whole family loves memory foam. I am a light sleeper and I toss and turn a lot. I have never understood people who enjoy sleeping on it.
Great review! Thanks so much! I roll over a lot too, did you find your favourite?
You should try out one of the hybrid mattresses out there, you get the support of the inner springs with some foam on top.
How does it compare to the purple mattress in terms of how it felt to you? Was there any temperature difference in how long the mattress took to heat up?
So we just got one two days ago and I was like hmm bed in a bag. You are right about the edges you can’t sit on the edge you’ll fall or roll off. Lol. I don’t know how long this is gonna take for the corners to fully fluff. They look pinched. Well we are going to give it a shot and see. Would really like to see how you repack it back up.
i have the queen version of this and love it
haven't experienced any of the issues you had but everyone is different
I couldn’t stand my Nectar Mattress. I also bought mine with a package on sale and had to return it. I love memory foam mattresses and now own a Tempur-Pedic, which is great.
The biggest problem I had was that when I laid on it, the soft upper part would completely compress, leaving me laying down on the hardest chunk of foam rubber ever! I’m not especially overweight but I do have a few extra pounds and it was just impossible to get comfortable with so many pressure points.
It cost more to get the Tempur-Pedic but it has been totally worth it.
@Panen Dollar Quit spamming people pervert.
My daughter have Tempur-Pedic, very nice I lay her bed, I love it! Her bed size twin cost her 1,000.00 that her grandfather pay for it and gift to her. I wanna double bed Tempur-Pedic that help my back, it's very soft-firm! But it cost more than twin bed cost.. 😖

I bought one and I’m lying on it now and it’s super comfy. Time will tell. I’m a side sleeper and had a small back surgery 4 years ago so I bought this mattress because it’s supposed to be good for side sleepers. We shall see. It feels really comfortable so far.
Still holding up?
The thing about memory foam hugging you is that its supposed to help your body stay in one spot. Rolling around all night is by definition restlessness. If your body fights staying asleep, thats a you problem, not a mattress problem.
Hi, I always appreciate your reviews 🙂 I can't sleep with a firm bed or firm pillows they have to be soft The firmness keeps me awake I need something I can sink into.
Always appreciate your reviews James 🙂
I worked for a furniture company so i got to test out alot of the matress brands. Nectar is ok but like you said, you definitely sink in too much. Great video as always James 👍.
oh man, I got a mattress with that box of silica I ordered, damn!
Damn, that's some high quality packing material!
