Description

A memory foam mattress is made out of a synthetic material called memory foam. Memory foam (also known as viscoelastic polyurethane foam) is dense, durable, and soft. It has a soft to medium firmness with a lifespan of about 10 years. It’s lauded for its heat-wicking abilities, support for aching joints, and the ability to evenly distribute weight.

The “slow-moving” properties of memory foam are what it’s most known for. Remember those ‘90s commercials where actors jumped on a bed with an unspilled glass of wine next to them? Those are the slow-moving and weight distributing properties in action.

Types of memory foam mattresses

Traditional foam: Traditional memory foam mattresses are built with a polyurethane foam that conforms to the body during sleep and a closed cell structure that traps heat.

Open-cell foam: Open-cell memory foam mattresses are less dense and softer than traditional foam mattresses. The “open-cells” create small tunnels that promote air movement throughout the mattress and allow heat to escape. The Casper mattress unites breathable open-cell foam with high-density memory foam for that signature “just right” feel.

Foam with gel pods: Foam mattresses with gel pods are considered more advanced mattresses when compared to the traditional and open-cell foam. Gel pods are added to the top layer of the mattress for extra support. This adds a natural bounce that helps the mattress pop back to its original shape. The Casper Wave Hybrid has gel pods under the waist and lower back to help keep your spine aligned in any position.

Types of Foam

Memory Foam – Memory foam is another very commonly used foam material. It’s made from similar polyurethane materials, with added ingredients to increase its density and viscosity. Memory foam is great for pressure relief, as it contours to the shape of the body. The term “memory” in memory foam refers to the material’s tendency to retain the shape of the body for a few seconds after being indented.

Standard memory foam is the traditional material that’s soft yet supportive, and generally affordable.

Open-cell memory foam is designed with openings in the tiny cells of foam, allowing for better airflow. This material feels a bit softer, and it will sleep cooler on warm nights.

Gel memory foam has tiny gel beads embedded into the memory foam material. The gel, combined with the open-cell design, helps to improve cooling and airflow.
