An air mattress, also known as an airbed is an inflatable mattress, usually made of plastic or textile-reinforced plastic or rubber. The deflated mattress can be rolled up or folded and carried or stored relatively easily, making them a popular choice for inflatable mattress trips and for temporary bedding at home for guests. They are inflated either orally by blowing into a valve, or with a manual foot-powered or electric pump. Some are even automatically inflating (up to a certain pressure – some additional inflation is also needed) just by opening the valve.

The three main categories for use of air mattresses are camping, temporary home use (guests) and full time permanent use (in the bedroom). Some air mattresses are specifically designed to perform both functions (camping and guest use) while others are specifically designed for one purpose alone (permanent use in the home or RV).

Once upon a time (in 2003, actually, when sales of memory foam mattresses had begun to peak), a major mattress manufacturer (we’ll call them “Kudon”), came up with a clever marketing idea. They would use a “pressure map” to sell more memory foam mattresses to consumers.

Pressure mapping involves using sensors to measure the amount of pressure between two contacting objects. The most common use of the technology is in designing wheelchair seats, because pressure sores can be a painful problem for chair users.

In today’s tough economy, many people are looking for creative ways to save money and make everyday items last just that little bit longer.  Mattresses are no exception.  Instead of purchasing an entirely new traditional mattress or a new memory foam mattress, think outside the box a bit and think about using a memory foam topper pad to put the life back into your “not so new but not so old” mattress.  Here’s how…

Can a Memory Foam Topper Pad Revitalize My Mattress?

So I am pretty sure the next big thing in beds and sleeping accessories is latex. More of a gradual progression into the limelight than the quickly in and out memory foam fad. For one, memory foam is somewhat a “design to fail” product that breaks down after a few years of use because of the open cell design of the foam. Secondly, it must be made with some pretty nasty chemicals that can take several weeks to dissipate and still end up soaking into your mattress and sheets, ultimately being absorbed by your skin. No bueno. Mother natures cure to mankind’s design? Nature of course. How about foam rubber latex?
Latex is great because… well, let me rephrase, 100% NATURAL latex is great because it is naturally anti-microbial, naturally flame retardant, and… well, natural. It requires no chemical catalysts to foam the latex nor to cure it. Truly natural latex is cured by mechanical and environmental processes that do well to maintain consistency in the foam and leave the foam almost completely odorless and chemical free. Latex comes in all densities and has an almost springy feel. I have just a 3″ pad on my pillow-top mattress and the comfort I experience cannot be put into words, it can only be experienced. One must be careful, however, not to fall into the retail world of misinformation and knowledge blindfold some like to pull over the eyes of potential consumers. Just because a company uses the term “Talalay” latex doesn’t mean it is 100% natural. Talalay is a process, not a type of foam. Please keep that in mind while shopping and don’t be afraid to ask questions regarding this process and what it means.
The only problem is the expensive nature of latex beds. Toppers work quite well but if you are really looking to go the whole nine yards, you’ll end up spending lots of money to do so. A great alternative? How about a DIY latex bed you can buy online? Essentially, you will be able to by a “kit” that allows you to stack several latex toppers (100% natural latex made using the Talalay process) and place them in a zippered cover to make your own mattress. Best part is they are economical and sleep just as good if not better than the synthetic latex mattress you would end up paying thousands for.
Another great thing about this DIY bed is that you don’t have to worry about all the chemicals that go into the new federal fire-retardant standards. Since this new regulation hit this past July, companies have had to spend lots… and I mean LOTS of money getting all their beds tested to pass the new regulation. As consumers, of course, that additional cost is reflected in the price we pay at the store. So, not only are we having to pay more for a bed, we get to have all those nasty chemicals absorbing into our skin every night. With a DIY latex bed, the toppers are naturally flame-retardant, the zipper cover is 100% cotton or bamboo (both chemical free), and you pay a fraction of what you would normally pay for a comparable latex bed. Great deal I think… but it’s just my $.02.
