The TempurPedic Classic Bed is a classic style, simple memory foam mattress that offers exceptional comfort as well as ease of care.
TempurPedic is the pioneer in memory foam mattresses, and they have taken this amazing substance originally designed by NASA to an entirely new level.
NASA developed memory foam as a comfort material to be used by astronauts, but the founder of TempurPedic saw a material that could be used to make mattresses unlike anything else in the world.
In 1998, NASA awarded TempurPedic with a plaque of recognition for successfully using space technology for the betterment of human life and for economic opportunity.
Tempurpedic Classic Bed Review
The TempurPedic ClassicBed features several different comfort layers of varying thickness and density to create a sleep surface that has just the right mixture of softness and firm support.
TempurPedic's trademarked AirFlow System in the base layer maximizes air circulation to keep temperature within a comfortable range.
Softer comfort layers atop the firmer base layers of this one-sided mattress cushion the body and relieve pressure in areas prone to pain, while the denser layers beneath support the weight of the body without sagging and causing back pain.
This combination of soft comfort and therapeutic support is ideal for people who have had problems with back pain due to soft or sagging mattresses. The cover is made from a rayon-velour material that is not only soft to the touch but also hypoallergenic.
The washable cover can be removed for laundering to keep it fresh and clean, and the non-skid panel at the bottom of the mattress keeps it from slipping out of place.
Since they first introduced the memory foam mattress, TempurPedic has worked hard to improve the design of the material to solve some of the problems that existed with early models. This includes the issues of excessive heat and gassing off.
Because memory foam is temperature sensitive, it has been known to absorb body temperature until it becomes uncomfortably hot. The AirFlow system used in the base layers of the Tempur-Pedic ClassicBed solves this problem by ventilating the foam to release heat.
Gassing off is a process that occurs when a memory foam mattress is first removed from the package and the mattress emits an unpleasant chemical odour.
The first memory foam mattresses often had to be aired out for 24 hours or longer before the smell would completely dissipate, but subsequent improvements to the design of the foam have significantly lessened or in some cases completely eliminated the problem of gassing off.
Pros:
- Soft surface with supportive base layers
- Removable and washable cover
- Hypoallergenic
- AirFlow system helps cool base layers
- No-skid bottom
Cons:
- Not as many features as some of the more sophisticated models
- No flipping may cause excessive wear in areas of heavy use
- May experience some of the gassing off typical of memory foam
Since the first memory foam mattress was produced, several improvements have been made to enhance the comfort of this already amazing substance. By combining different foam densities and adding additional materials in some cases, the comfort of memory foam continues to improve.
The TempurPedic Classic Bed has the appearance of the original TempurPedic bed with the modern improvements that have allowed TempurPedic to remain the leader when it comes to memory foam mattresses.
