The top layer is the memory foam, followed by two separate layers of foam. The memory foam is a visco-elastic material that is sealed inside the mattress. When the mattress is placed on its side, the viscous nature of the foam will allow it to settle toward the bottom edge, moving or storing the mattress in anyway other than flat can cause the mattress to loose its proper shape. Ambient air temperature plays a big role in the viscosity and elasticity of memory foam. Temperatures below 50 degrees may cause the foam to lose its elastic ability to reshape. Temperatures around 70 degrees are necessary for the foam to settle to its original form.
Temperatures above 70 degrees can cause the foam to become less viscous. Memory foam has a tendency to turn a yellowish color when exposed to oxygen and any trapped moisture on the pad�s surface can cause mold. These mattresses MUST be packed, shipped, and stored FLAT; limiting the time the item is on its side." 3,431 posts, read 3,407,519 times 3,176 posts, read 2,900,541 times Originally Posted by Meemur Sadly, my moves are all cross country and involve a fair bit of storage on either end of the move. 1 posts, read 24,807 times 1 posts, read 13,420 times Please register to post and access all features of our very popular forum.
