Memory Foam Mattress
What NASA stumbled across in their success at making astronauts more comfortable during a space launch was how to make the rest of us more comfortable while we sleep. The advent of the Memory Foam Mattress has revolutionized the sleep industry and will most likely lead to the extinction of antiquated sleep technology like spring-form mattresses. Memory Foam Mattresses are heat sensitive and embodied with the remarkable ability to conform to the human form and work to eliminate pressure points. This means a 3lb Visco Mattress, one type of memory foam mattress will give you a sensation during sleep that is much like weightlessness.
Why a memory foam mattress is better than an airbed
The world is full of innovative and forward thinking individuals, some of whom have created some of the products that make our lives easier on a day to day basis. The Airbed has attempted to position itself as one such innovation – a technology that pushes air through a series of tubes to create cushion in a mattress. Many contemporary airbeds only push air through three tubes spread throughout a queen or king sized mattress which creates an affect known as hammocking. The effect is similar to sleeping in a hammock as your body inevitably falls between two of the three tubes, creating a sense of being smushed. A memory foam mattress, however, is entirely different, as it distributes the weight of the body evenly over the sleep surface alleviating irksome pressure points. Interestingly it is also quite a bit more affordable and easier to transport, to say nothing of the fact that a memory foam mattress will last for years longer than a conventional airbed. A memory foam mattress can be purchased in varying densities from 2lb to 5lb, but it is recommended to only purchase a 3lb density or higher to preserve quality and durability.
