Who might find a deep 12 inch hybrid too firm or too soft?
Feel is personal. Lighter side sleepers may want extra cushioning, while those who like a hard mattress may want a firmer feel. Consider your usual position and weight, and compare firmness across the collection.
How do I move and set up a 12 inch double mattress?

How do I care for and rotate a deep hybrid mattress?
Rotate it head to foot every few months so wear stays even. Vacuum lightly and spot clean with a damp cloth, letting it dry fully. Keep it on a supportive, ventilated base and avoid standing or jumping on it.
Is a 12 inch hybrid a good double mattress to choose?
