Why Not to Purchase a Memory Foam Mattress






Why Not to Purchase a Memory Foam Mattress or Product from Asia

With the surge to puchase memory foam mattresses and memory foam products, we are seeing inexpensive mattresses coming from Asia. China by far exports the majority of these mattresses. The fact is each mattress made in China has been compressed for months, and no one is sure what effect it will have on the life of the mattress. Another fact to consider is many Asian companies use toxic chemicals to manufacture their mattresses and this can make you sick. Don't be fooled with low prices, you really get what you pay for. Look for the "Made in the USA logo and be assured you are getting a high quality memory foam mattress, pillow, or mattress topper. Memory Foam Matttresses purchased from China are sold in lots from importers who not only purchase mattresses, but electronics, clothing, etc. Most of those E-Commerce businesses offer a 20 year full replacement warrantee. Who handles the warrantee? The importer? A company in China?

Unfortunately, not all foam is created equal. Many companies will put together the mattress in the U.S., but buy the foam overseas to save money. With overseas foam, we cannot be sure of the quality or the composition. The overseas foam makers produce memory foam that seems to flatten out with compression, even though it may feel comfortable upon the first feel. Therefore, the memory foam made overseas may not last as long, be as safe to sleep on, and offer enough support. Unfortunately, many companies state their beds are made in the U.S. because the mattress is put together in the U.S., even though they do not use U.S. produced foam. Protect yourself and your wallet, make sure if you purchase a memory foam product, it's made in the USA.

A Memory Foam Mattress Will Help You Get a Restful Night's Sleep: Wake up Feeling Refreshed!

A memory foam mattress is made of a very unique foam called viscoelastic foam. It is foam made of a unique material that has the ability to contour to your body's curves in response to body heat. This allows the memory foam to support the parts of your body that need it. Memory foam mattresses come in a variety of thicknesses to suit your personal needs.

When synthetic foam and certain chemicals are mixed they create a product with an increase in density weight. What this means is that every square foot of memory foam is condensed to create a more dense and viscous elastic foam. These memory mattresses provide you with what you need to sleep restfully while at the same time easing your aches and pains.

A mattress made of memory foam works by supporting your pressure points such as your lower back and behind your knees. The foam mattress elevates these points of stress by allowing your other body parts like your upper back and buttocks to sink deeper into the memory foam. This allows your natural curves to get the support they need. Many people find great relief with these mattresses and will sleep on nothing else. This is because their pressure points are relieved of any strain as they sleep.

Whether you are a stomach, side or back sleeper, the memory foam will contour around every curve of your body giving your body the support it needs without the stress. Your hips and shoulders will sink comfortably into the memory foam as you sleep on your side allowing you to sleep comfortably. When you get out of bed the memory foam will quickly regain its elastic properties and be ready to support you the next time you go to bed.






Many people suffering from aches and pains swear by the memory foam wishing they had made the switch from a conventional mattress sooner. These mattresses may not be for everybody, however, so be sure to try one out before you buy it.

Memory Foam Mattress-A Longer Lasting-Cheaper Alternative

The average conventional spring mattress has a life span of about five years. After that period, the mattress begins to sag at the center or create divots where you sleep (hammock effect), and this can contribute to back pain, and even more serious health problems. Even when an inner spring mattress is brand new, it can't compete with a memory foam mattress for a healthy night's rest. Many doctors recommend memory foam mattresses for their patients.

A memory foam mattress can easily last twice as long as an old fashioned inner spring mattress. National Memory Foam places a twenty year warranty on our Body Form memory foam mattresses and a ten year warranty on our Celina and Tri-Lux memory foam mattresses. The reason we have so much confidence in our products is because we know that our foam is manufactured to incredibly exacting standards, and will not compress or degrade the way other cheaper brands of foam can.

We think it is great that a lot of manufacturers have begun producing memory foam. This has allowed the price of memory foam to come down and finally become an affordable product. And while this has also meant that a good number of quality memory foams have come onto the market, it has also meant that a greater number of low quality, cut rate foams have also appeared.

Memory foam isn't a commodity, and not all memory foams are created equal. As a general rule of thumb, you should avoid the really inexpensive memory foam mattresses you will find on the market. They are generally made of either low density memory foam or layered with other, cheaper foam products. In our experience, these inexpensive memory foam mattresses just won't give the same comfort as higher quality memory foam mattresses and will wear out relatively fast.
