I hereby withdraw and recant all comments about overstock.com. I can't have it both ways. This message was modified Mar 3, 2010 by Pete

I am also interested in feedback on Overstock Sensus. I have owned real Sensus in the past and it is an outstanding product. If the Overstock is real, I would like to get an inch for myself. Previously I had 3" but that was too thick for me. It should be pink and VERY heavy if it is real. |
I have 1" of the Sensus from overstock. It is the only Sensus I have tried, so I have no frame of reference to tell is the real thing or not. I did measure and weigh it once, and I believe it was at least 5 lbs. density. It is pink. It does seem more dense and supportive than the blue type of "cooler" foams they sell at overstock. I have been happy with it, and use it below a 1" layer of latex. My one complaint is that it probably does not breathe as well as the cooler foams, so it can potentially cause heat issues. Using it like I do, under 1" of latex and a wool topper, the heat has not been a problem so far. This is the best 1" memory foam I have been able to find, but there are not a lot of choices if you only want 1". |
Thanks sandman. Did it have much of an odor when you first got it? And, if so, how long before it dissipated? |

One other question: Was it full-cut to the full dimensions of the mattress size, or was it short-cut a few inches shorter? The measurements listed on O's website suggest they short-cut, which I don't care for. Of course, I can choose a larger size for the same price. But, I would like to be able to get two full-cut Twin XL's from the single King. I may have to order the Cal King just to fit ONE Twin XL's 80" length. |
If anything I would say it is cut slightly too large. I don't remember exact measurements though. It was not a problem for me. |
Thank you for the feedback sandman. This message was modified Jun 19, 2010 by MequonJim

Ditto, sandman.
BTW, I think I might roll the dice and take a chance with the so-called "Venus". After a little more research, it seems that it might be 8lb Aerus (a real product according to the Foamex website, as I mentioned in my Aerus thread), which could explain the blue color and the possible mix-up with 4lb Aerus by their supplier. If I do take the gamble and try it, I'll definitely post my findings. This message was modified Jun 19, 2010 by garypen
