Memory foam Mattress

I had always wondered about Tempurpedic. That happened because I used to be interested in Sleep Research and a visit to a New York City hotel that had a great Bed. Unfortunately, I did not write down the… name of the hotel or bed and it's been too many years now for me to remember. However, I did remember that it had some sort of memory foam on it so I left with a good impression and purchased this mattress. Well, here is what some people will find....I slept on it for 7 nights. First night great. Then, I began to notice a slight give in my hip area...(I'm 6'0, 195 lbs). I thought, this is the bed forming to my shape - great! I then a few days later I began to have "hip pain". Hummm, first time I felt it I ignored it. Next night, ignored it though it was slightly worse. 7th night on the bed, 3rd night of hip pain - I had to get off the bed - I could not sleep or even get comfortable! I had never ever had had a problem before so was confused until my fiancé also started complain about mysterious back pain. It doesn't take much for me to react. After talking a little we switched back to our previous mattress and then next morning all pains were gone - happy city. Both of us felt great. So, motto is...this may work for some people and won't for others. I gave the mattress away after 2 weeks. The person I gave it to gave it to her kids because she started mysterious back pain...she figured the kid was very, very light but is keeping an ear on things to make sure the kid doesn't complain. On the store purchase side of things ... Bed was delivered quickly. It was wrapped well. Looked great! The mattress smelled a little but nothing too serious. Like a newly painted room. I'm giving the mattress 3 stars. It wasn't good for me but it might be for you. Goodness knows the mattress has been getting good reviews here. Wish it worked for me but it didn't. If you start to develop mysterious aches after purchasing it get off immediately and see if you feel better without it. Evidently, some humans need the kind of 'give' that a foam mattress provides and others of us don't need it at all.

Me and my fiance decided to buy this mattress after reading many good reviews on memory foam mattresses and in particular about this one. The price was another component that made us go for it. To remind is… that I am 7 months pregnant and for me it's getting so hard to find a good position to sleep in any other type of beds. Furthermore, my fiance is 6'6 so we definitely need a mattress able to make the both of us sleep on a cloud. The mattress arrived one week after we purchase it on line and the only worry we had was the stinky smell everybody was talking about in many reviews. Ours came with a slight smell but after a day the smell was almost gone. We couldn't wait to sleep on it. We did it on the second night and the experience was marvelous. I am able to sleep 13 hours in a row on it despite my big belly and my fiance is getting the proper rest he needed. I am definitely recommending it to everybody!!!

I found this mattress very comfortable. The odor was almost completely gone after a few days of airing the mattress out. I can't believe how much better I feel in the morning. I have Fibromyalgia and would… have trouble waking up at night in constant pain and having to change positions frequently, but with this mattress, I now sleep soundly through the night with much less pain in the morning. I have noticed that the mattress retains my heat and have had to adjust the temperature in my room to keep it cooler. It'll be great in the winter. I did notice that one side of my mattress is softer than the other, but I am comfortable on both the firmer side and the soft side.
