Memory foam mattresses may sleep warmer than other non-memory foam mattresses because when lying on the bed, people tend to sleep “in the mattress” instead of “on the mattress,” making more direct skin contact with the mattress which may absorb more body heat making the mattress feel warmer.

For first time visco memory foam sleepers, please allow 30-60 days to adjust.

Density indicates how much the foam weighs. For example, a cubic foot of four lbs/ft density foam weighs four pounds. The density of memory foam often determines many mattress characteristics as well as many differences between brands/models. You can often learn much about a memory foam mattress simply by knowing its density. In most areas of comparison, low and medium-density memory foam mattresses tend to perform as well as and often better than high-density memory foam mattresses.

Newly opened memory foam mattresses may give off an initial odor that can last for a couple of days. It is akin to the “new car smell” since memory foam mattresses have been compressed and sealed into a plastic bag and it has not had a chance for the odor to escape and air out. The odor is non-toxic but can be a bother for people who are sensitive to smells. We suggest airing out the mattress for at least 24 hours before putting sheets on the bed to reduce the initial odor.
