S&P 500)Dow 30)Nasdaq)AccesswireJuly 4, 2015 10 Point Comparison Reveals PROS and CONS of Budget-Friendly and Luxury Gel Memory Foam MattressesChicago, IL. / ACCESSWIRE / July 3, 2015 / "Compared to first generation temper foam developed in the 1960s, modern-day memory foam is available in a variety of firmness levels, springs back faster, heats up less, and lasts longer. However, even some of today’s so-called best memory foam mattresses from renowned manufacturers are far from flawless" cautions Belinda Palmer, a spokeswoman for Bedroom Solutions.This Top 10 Memory Foam Mattress Review and Comparison was recently published to educate consumers on the Pros and Cons of popular mattresses, so that they can quickly recognize a low-quality mattress.The above review compares mattresses based on features like (1) density/firmness, (2) thickness of gel memory foam layers, (3) heat retention, (4) CertiPUR-US safety certifications, (5) motion transfer between partners, (6) suitability to different sleeping positions, (7) hypoallergenic properties, (8) price, (9) user reviews, and (10) warranty period.
Visit http://Bedroom.Solutions/Memory-Foam-Mattresses/ to learn about above features of the best budget-friendly memory foam mattresses in today’s marketplace.Popular mattress brands like Simmons Beautyrest, Serta iComfort, and Tempur-Pedic occupy the list of best luxury memory foam mattresses while less well-known brands like Perfect Cloud Ultra Plush, Ultimate Dreams, Sleep Innovations, Signature Sleep, Classic Brands, Amerisleep, Dynasty Mattress, and Lucid make up the list of best budget-friendly mattresses. "The decision-making process that goes into selecting a mattress can be exhausting" exclaims Palmer. "The first hurdle is choosing between memory foam, latex, inner spring, water, and air mattresses" she adds.The Memory Foam vs Latex vs Inner Spring vs Adjustable Air Mattress Comparison was recently published by Bedroom Solutions to help people get through this initial hurdle.The above comparison looks at various aspects of the 4 mattress types such as: (1) support on pressure points and alignment of the spine, (2) motion transfer between partners, (3) mattress sagging, (4) the need to rotate/flip mattresses, (5) how hot or cool it sleeps, (6) suitability to use on adjustable beds, (7) off gassing odor, (8) weight, (9) lifespan
, and (10) cost. The comparison clearly shows that memory foam and latex are superior to others in most aspects."Once the consumer makes the above decision, he or she still needs to decide whether to buy a (1) soft, medium, or firm mattress, (2) thin (6" – 8") or thick (10", 12" or 14") mattress, (3) full, queen, or king size, and (4) whether to buy online or at the local mattress retailer" elaborates Palmer.Once the consumer is convinced that he/she needs a memory foam mattress, several additional factors need to be considered to ensure that an uncomfortable mattress is not purchased. "While memory foam is superior to other types in many aspects, especially, older-generation memory foam can have a few drawbacks” explains Palmer. “As a result, some of the cheap memory foam mattresses (1) emit strong chemical odors, (2) heat up too much, (3) are too soft or too firm, (4) fail to expand back to correct thickness after being shrink wrapped, (5) sag prematurely, and have (6) excessively soft edges" she adds.
Over the last four decades memory foam has been around, manufacturers have recognized these flaws and come up with effective solutions. One such solution worth mentioning is how the ‘sleeping hot’ problem has been handled. Foam mattresses are inherently good at absorbing body heat, but poor at releasing it out. This has been successfully addressed in newer generation memory foam thanks to ‘open-cell’ technology, invention of gel memory foam mattresses, strategic placement of grooves that bring out hot air, use of air-infused memory foam, and even using bamboo-made mattress covers that allow mattresses to efficiently ‘breathe’, in turn allowing mattresses to stay cool. The above memory foam mattress review takes into consideration all these factors and has already eliminated low-quality mattresses saving consumers days, if not weeks of online research-time. In addition to reviewing the best memory foam mattress brands, Bedroom Solutions provides a mattress buying guide which emphasizes the role of one’s sleeping style when selecting a soft vs firm mattress.
"Adhering to these sleep-expert guidelines will help minimize stress on pressure points like shoulders, hips, and buttocks, while optimally aligning the spine for an uninterrupted, pain-free night of sleep" advices Palmer.For more information about us, please visit http://www.Bedroom.Solutions/Contact Info:Name: Belinda PalmerSource: Bedroom SolutionsSee all 68 reviewsShould I buy this?

Common claims that haven’t held up in our tests: Foam Layers Make a Better Bed More innerspring mattresses now include foam on top. But the foam is often too thin to make a difference on some of the hybrid models. Hybrid innerspring models that scored well in our tests had a foam layer several inches thick, though performance still varied. More Coils, the Better The better innerspring models we tested had 600 to 1,000 coils. But even if one mattress has more coils than another, the coils could be made of thinner-gauge metal. You’ll also hear about coil variations such as Bonnell (hourglass type), continuous wire, and individually pocketed springs. None of those is inherently superior. Gel Provides a Cooler Sleep Some mattresses (noted in our Ratings) have a layer of gel-infused foam that’s supposed to provide a cooling effect.
But that layer is buried beneath other layers. While our tests have shown that innerspring mattresses containing gel did tend to sleep slightly cooler, the reverse was true with gel-infused foam beds. Extra Lumbar Support Helps Back Sleepers A special lumbar-support zone is one of many ways manufacturers try to differentiate their product lines. But there’s no guarantee that it makes any real difference, and it hasn’t shown significant benefits in our tests. Forget About Comparison Shopping If you like a mattress at one store and ask elsewhere for something similar, you're likely to be steered toward a same-brand mattress claimed to have the same construction, components, and firmness. But they’re probably not the same. Mattress makers offer some lines nationally, but when those brands are sold through major chains such as Macy's, Sears, and Sleepy’s, they're for lines exclusive to those chains. And manufacturers don't publish a directory of comparable mattresses.
When we went to three bedding chains and asked for mattresses similar to those we’d bought at three department stores, five of the six were way off the mark. So use our Ratings as a guide, and insist on the precise make and model that scored well in our tests. Also check our Ratings of mattress brands and stores, based on subscriber surveys. If possible, lie on any mattress that you’re considering. Wear loose clothes and shoes you can slip off. Make yourself comfortable, and shoo away the salesperson if you’re feeling pressured. Salespeople should expect you to take your time. Spend at least five or ten minutes on each side and on your back (your stomach, too, if that's a preferred sleeping position). Panelists who took beds home for a month-long trial rarely changed the opinion they formed after the first night. Shopping online or at a warehouse club? Tryouts aren’t usually an option, so checking return policies before you buy is extra important. Make sure the store offers a full refund or credit toward another mattress.
Return periods, often called “comfort guarantees,” range from a couple of weeks to 120 days. Some retailers, including Macy’s and Sears, charge a 15-percent restocking fee. Costco and some online sellers provide free pickup if you want a refund or exchange, but otherwise, you’ll have to pay for it—or cart the mattress to the store. And you’ll be responsible for any damage. Once you’ve settled on a model, try to bring the price down. Many businesses, such as warehouse clubs, have fixed prices and won’t budge. But for retailers that do negotiate—particularly specialty chains—huge markups allow them to lower prices by 50 percent or more during their frequent sales. Our recommendation: Any time of year, insist on a sale price you’ve seen for the mattress you know you want, and don’t be afraid to walk out if you feel you’re getting a raw deal. Don’t Be Bullied Into Buying a Box Spring You might not need it. For an innerspring mattress, the box spring (also called a “foundation”) is a wood frame enclosing stiff wire and covered with fabric to match the mattress.
For foam or adjustable-air mattresses, it’s a box several inches high. If you're switching to a foam or adjustable-air bed from an innerspring, you'll need a boxy foundation that lacks springs and wire. Otherwise, if your box spring isn't broken and is still structurally sound, consider keeping it and saving money (roughly $150 to $300 for a queen-size). One caveat: Some brands require you to buy their box spring to receive full warranty coverage. It can range from 10 to 25 years and covers only manufacturing defects such as sagging and loose or broken coil wires. Coverage is frequently prorated, meaning that it decreases over time. Never accept delivery without inspecting the mattress (and the box spring, if you buy one) for stains and other damage. Also be sure that the mattress has a label that states “all-new material” before you send the driver on his way. If it’s not there, refuse delivery. And keep it on afterward in case you do have to file a warranty claim in the future.
