I bought this to put over a bed in the box mattress, which was soft, yet still too firm for my hip area. This topper is so soft, the tufts or baffles are equally spaced, and feels very comfy while sleeping. I would say it's very close to the feel of a (good) hotel mattress. Overall we are pleased with the product and it seems to be well made, hope we are still comfortable a year from now. I'd say good deal for the price. :)
