Mattresses with a memory effect are becoming fashionable today, due to the ability to evenly distribute the load and as if to "adapt" to the body of a sleeping person. Do you need it? Let's try to figure it out.

What is a memory effect mattress? It is made of polyurethane, foamed in a special way and having both viscosity and elasticity. In fact, the "memory effect" is based on the temperature difference between the room air and the human body. Lying on a mattress with such an effect, you will feel its stiffness for several minutes, and it may even seem to you that lying on it is quite inconvenient. But pretty quickly the material will become malleable, recesses are formed on it, repeating your contour.

MATERIAL PROPERTIES MEMORY FOAM

On such material it is practically impossible to "trace" an arm or leg. All parts of our body are comfortably wrapped in foamed polyurethane.

Due to its properties, such "smart" mattresses are recommended even for bedridden patients in order to facilitate their position. Well, they will help healthy or practically healthy people to find greater sleep comfort. Often in the names of materials with a memory effect, the word Memory is used, which, in fact, translates as "memory". An important advantage of the memory effect is the ability to optimally fix the position of our spine and give it maximum unloading in a dream.

Memory Foam Material

Memory technology is produced mainly without springs, as they themselves provide sufficient fixation and orthopedic effect. Often in such springless mattressesadd a layer of latex. It is completed with a durable cotton case.

FEATURES OF THE OPERATION OF MATTRESSES WITH MEMORY

Such products have many advantages, however, there are reciprocal responsibilities of the owner to take care of his berth:

  • Once every six months (and if possible three months), it is recommended to shift and turn the mattress over, first change the position of the head and legs, next time with the opposite side up (provided that the structure is two-sided). This is necessary to avoid deformation.
  • The backing (the base under the mattress ) should be absolutely flat and sufficiently rigid. The "caving" bottom from the fiberboard will not work. It is not recommended to use such a mattress on a spring, mesh bed.
  • Polyurethane materials must not be cleaned at high temperatures, tumble dried, or wet-washed. Only dry cleaning without the use of cleaning chemicals.
  • We do not recommend letting the mattress "freeze" too much, store it in a cold room or on a balcony in winter. It may take quite a long time to restore its properties and shape.
  • You can not store for a long time in a bent, folded position, this can lead to long-term deformation.
  • Do not use material with a memory effect to sit on it, for this it is better to use a sofa or armchair. Too often uniform pressure on one point can lead to the formation of a depression where you often sit, and this will lead to a deterioration in the orthopedic properties of the bed.

In general, if you use it wisely, do not deform it during storage and do not expose it to temperature changes, it will serve as an excellent guarantee for a comfortable sleep, healthy spine and neck, will give you extra vivacity in the morning.

Filler Memory Foam

This technology allows you to smoothly fit the contours of the body, so that a person feels an indescribable feeling of lightness. People who have already tried this material come back to it again and again.
