Memory foam supports a body through its unique foam construction.

Memory foam is a familiar choice to mattress buyers; however, the unique foam construction that gives support to a body in rest, has some downsides for that very reason. Does this Spark an idea?

  1. Overheating

    • Memory foam is somewhat dependent on temperature, so the mattress takes heat from a body and doesn't disperse it. However, there are some brands that claim to address this issue.

    Adjustability

    • Lighter people may find that they don't have enough weight to compress the foam into a comfortable position.

    Odor

    • Memory foam has an odor for the first few weeks; this may be distracting.

    Getting Used to It

    • For some, it takes time to get comfortable sleeping on the mattress, and after a while, it gets harder for them to sleep on regular mattresses.

    Other Considerations

    • Memory foam also takes longer to become malleable in a cold room. If you get out of bed in the middle of the night, it will take time to get comfortable again.
