Memory foam mattresses: the experts answer!

Published in Mattresses

If you aren’t getting good sleep on your mattress and you’re thinking of changing it, the ideal solution might be a memory foam mattress.

Memory foam mattresses: the experts answer!

Some people seem reluctant to switch from a classic spring mattress, to one made with innovative materials such as memory foam (viscoelastic foam).

We recommend reading this article where we will discuss the 3 most common myths related to memory foam mattresses to help you make a more informed choice of your future mattress and sleep soundly and restfully!

1. Are memory foam mattresses too warm?

Memory foam mattresses have the extraordinary ability to adapt to our body in any position. It only takes a few minutes for the memory foam to shape itself thanks to our body heat.

These mattresses are very popular even though some people find them a bit too snug and therefore too hot during the summer. This is why many mattresses have only one side filled with memory and a “summer” side made of less enveloping materials. Let us highlight the fact that the “wrapping” effect of memory depends on the thickness of the layer with which that side is made.

2. Do memory foam mattresses promote the appearance of bed mites?

Absolutely not. In fact, it is the opposite. In fact, the layered composition of memory foam prevents the development of dust mites! In addition, these mattresses are treated with specific anti-allergy products, which permanently discourage the proliferation of mites, as well as providing relief to allergy and asthma sufferers.

3. Are all memory foam mattresses the same?

Again, also in this case the answer is no. In fact, memory foam can vary so much in quality and longevity. For Manifattura Falomo mattresses, we use high-density foam that has a high load coefficient and optimal firmness: these factors contribute to high quality!

Be careful with mattresses with lower density foam, as they may lose firmness quickly and worsen their performance.
