The Advantages of Tempur-Pedic

The Tempur-Pedic mattress was originally designed by NASA for the space program, but it was never used. Eventually, Swedish mattress manufacturers found this memory foam technology and used it to create the Tempur-Pedic mattress. The Tempur-Pedic is created from a material called Tempur that consists of spherical cells compressed together and results in a better night's sleep for those who use it. If you're considering a Tempur-Pedic for your own home, it is important to consider its advantages.
  1. No Mattress Turning

    • Unlike a traditional mattress that requires flipping every other year, the Tempur-Pedic does not. These mattresses are made to not wear down over time or create lumps and sinks. Therefore, the only thing that has to be changed is the sheets.

    Temperature Sensitive

    • The Tempur-Pedic mattress is temperature sensitive to the body and becomes warmer in the areas where your body touches it and cooler in the areas where it does not. This temperature sensitivity provides a warming and soothing sensation as you're sleeping on a Tempur-Pedic mattress.

    Conforms to the Body

    • Unlike a traditional spring mattress, Tempur-Pedic mattresses are created from millions of spherical Tempur cells, which are viscous elastic materials. These materials will form around the curves of your body, bringing support to your back and neck areas. Since these mattresses conform to the body, they also will retain their shape and not sag after long periods of use.

    Warranty

    • The Tempur-Pedic generally comes with an automatic manufacturer's warranty good for five to 10 years, but some mattresses retailers will offer extended warranties beyond that. Consumers can get a replacement mattress free of charge in the event their Tempur-Pedic fails within their warranty's time frame.

    Motion Transfer

    • You have most likely seen the commercial on television where the woman is jumping up and down on the Tempur-Pedic mattress with a glass of red wine right beside her. This was to demonstrate that the Tempur-Pedic does not transfer motion. If you are sleeping with another individual in the same bed, his movements will not wake you up or shift the mattress in any way.

    Fewer Body Aches

    • The Tempur-Pedic provides the right amount of pressure to particular points and curves of the body. That means that the joints in these sensitive areas will be provided with even amounts of pressure as you are sleeping, resulting in fewer body aches in the morning.

    Suits Most Body Weights

    • Unlike most spring mattresses, which need to be purchased depending on body weight, the Tempur-Pedic comes in one level of stiffness and suits all body weights. This can be helpful for a couple who shares a bed but has a difference in overall weight.
