The mattress itself has been
The mattress itself has been excellent. My sleep improved immediately, and I wake up noticeably less stiff and sore.
I research big purchases extensively. I kept circling more expensive options, but I didn’t see meaningful differences in construction or long-term reviews that justified the price jump. Awara consistently reviewed well for delivery and setup, and my experience matched that. It makes me happy to get a high-quality product at what feels like a fair price.
The mattress is significantly heavier than my old Leesa but it’s still fairly floppy, which makes rotating it a bit more work.
I paid to have my old mattress removed and recycled instead of sent to a landfill. Awara’s use of natural materials also factored into my decision for similar reasons — not perfect, but meaningfully better than the default.
