I didn't want to judge it on looks alone though, so I left it to expand for the rest of the day and got to the real testing later.

There was nothing especially plush or appealing about it, although the cover felt soft to the touch. One thing I noticed right away was that it didn't have an off-putting smell that some memory foam mattresses can have, so I didn't feel the need to leave my windows open to let it air out, which was a plus. I lifted the rolled up mattress onto my platform bed frame, carefully took the plastic off and let it expand. It was tightly wrapped in two layers of plastic and needed to be cut open and left to expand until it was ready for testing. The Casper Original mattress arrived just like any other mattress in a box. Looking for a new mattress?
