A different type of problem
comes into play with the memory foam option. The memory foam moulds itself into
the shape of whatever is lying on it. This process takes a short period of
time, approximately 30 seconds, to conclude properly. When the pressure is removed,
the low areas take almost two minutes, by my timing, to completely return to
level. If you lie down and sleep like you are dead, never moving all night
long, then you would probably be comfortable. If you are a restless sleeper,
shifting position every few minutes, you would be lying on a lumpy mattress for
much of the time and probably not enjoy it.
Another factor to consider with the memory foam was pointed out by one of my patients. If you sleep warm, meaning that a sheet is often too much covering for you, then the insulating properties of the foam will most likely make you feel as though you are in an oven and you will be too hot to get the rest that you need. My patient tried one out at the mall and accidentally fell asleep, lying on it for almost 30 minutes. He said it was very comfortable, but when when got off it, his entire back, and the covering on the bed, were completely soaked with perspiration, and he said he would never be able to make it through a full night like that. If you sleep like a mummy, and need five blankets when your bedroom temperature is 80°, then this may be the perfect option for you.
On the flip side, those that love their Tempur Pedic or memory foam beds have this to say: very comfortable, sleep soundly, soothing. If you are happy with your memory foam mattress, please share your opinions and experiences.
