What Users Say

There are thousands of Novaform reviews on Costco.com. Some reviewers praise the Novaform mattresses for a balanced firmness level and for not feeling hot. Others complain that the mattress is not the best choice for a side sleeper.  

“I was very skeptical to order a mattress online without ever touching it but figured worst case scenario it could be returned. The product reviews are spot on with this mattress. It took about 24 hours after removing it from the box for it to reach its full firmness. Our first night sleeping on it felt a little softer than we were hoping for, but from the second night on we’ve loved every minute of it. It is a medium firmness with a little bit of a plush top that does really help keep your temperature comfortable throughout the night. I would highly recommend it if you like memory foam mattresses.” 

Another satisfied customer says, “This mattress has surpassed all of my expectations. I was in the market for a low-cost foam mattress and anticipated having to forgo some features. This mattress has all of the quality of the much pricier versions: just the right firmness, doesn’t trap body heat, traditional mattress cover (nice material – not just a block of foam), no foamy smell. Got it for my son who suffers from bad allergies and many restless nights. After night one, he woke up and was beaming after having ‘the best night of sleep ever. I most likely will buy one for my daughter who has orthopedic issues and am convincing the family to buy one for my elderly and very frail parents. Then, finally, I hope to treat myself to one!”

Meanwhile, another on Costco’s site reads, “maybe it’s only three nights in, but this is not a medium or even medium-firm foam mattress. Unfortunately, you can’t lay on it before you buy it. It’s probably good for a back sleeper or a stomach sleeper, but it’s not really good for side sleeping which requires give in the shoulders and hips. This is a firm.” 

Who Should Purchase a Novaform Mattress?

Let’s take a look at which Novaform mattress could perform the best for your needs:

  • The ComfortGrande Plus Mattress is a great choice for back sleepers as it aligns the back while relieving pressure points.
  • People who have kids or pets can get the Novaform SoFresh Gel Memory Foam as its removable cover is machine washable, plus it supports your pressure points. 
  • The Serafina Pearl Cool Comfort Gel Memory Foam may be a go-to foam for hot sleepers thanks to its dual cooling technology.
  • Advanced Back Support 12” Responsive Foam is the ideal mattress for back sleepers with a triple-layer design that aligns the back.
  • The firm support in the Novaform 8” Gel Memory Foam Mattress makes it a good pick for all body types from children to adults, plus it cools down hot sleepers.

If you’re on a budget and enjoy the feel of memory foam, a Novaform mattress could be worth a try. The company also prides itself on its gel-infused technology that ensures the foam doesn’t sleep hot.
