Help me.
I am very confused.
This one is three times more comfortable than that one.
This one is three times as comfortable as that one. |

Hi,
The sentences have almost the same meaning.
In the first sentence, "this one" is greater than "that one" in how comfortable it is.
In the second sentence, "this one" is the same as or greater than "that one" in how comfortable it is.
