Memory foam mattresses are purportedly durable. A decent brand of memory bed can last for as long as 15 years even with relatively little maintenance. This can be attributed to the resilient properties of visco elastic foam.
Visco elastic foam technology is originally an idea of NASA. This organization needed something to help astronauts feel comfortable when they launch into space. The G-forces tend to push them back to their seats, thereby developing pressure sores in the process. Back pains and pressure sores are commonplace to astronauts.
Bed Foam Topper
The foam is stiff and firm at first. But once body heat comes into contact with it, it starts to soften up to follow the contours of the body. Compared to traditional spring beds, it provides better support to the crucial areas of the body such as the spine, the neck and the lumbar region. It is little wonder why adults prefer this kind of mattress.
The resilient structure of this mattress gives it durability. It is expected to last for more than a decade. However, this is not true for all brands of memory foams. Consumers can attest to the fact that memory beds are as prone to depressions and sags as the average spring mattress.
Most memory foam beds are also one-sided. The top layers of the mattress have been strategically filled with foams that can target the areas of the body prone to pains. It cannot be flipped. As a result, the mattress is subjected to the same body weight on the same area for many years. Depressions and sags appear on the area commonly subjected to body weight.
You can actually prolong the life of your mattress. To avoid depressions and sags, use box springs. If your bed frame has spaces in between the slats at the bottom part of the bed, use a wooden platform to cover the slats. This will make sure that the mattress will retain its structure even if it is subjected to heavy weight.
Since you can't flip your bed, you can rotate it instead. This will even out wear. Also consider using mattress toppers. Although most memory beds have integrated pads or toppers, you can increase comfort level by using the topper. This will also lessen the damages to your primary bed.
Your mattress should last 5 years longer than it normally would if you use these preventive measures. Extend the average life of your memory foam mattress so you can enjoy more of its benefits.
