Was a bit skeptical looking at some of the reviews but for the price (cheaper than one of those egg crate rolls) I figured it was worth a try. As soon as I unpacked this topper, it almost instantly sprang to a 2" height. I will let it sit for 48 to 72 hours though to make sure its fully expanded. It looks exactly like it is pictured and I'm sure will help with a good night's sleep for anyone staying in our guest room. I dont understand the low reviews on this topper, the price was awesome (19.99) and the quality looks as good as the expensive one i purchased years ago for another bedroom. Glad I bit the bullet, ignored so.e of the reviews and ordered this topper, its perfect for what I needed for the guest room bed!
