Memory Foam vs. Latex Mattresses?

While Memory Foam Mattresses have become popular over the years, especially as manufacturers like Tempurpedic have invested in such an aggressive ad campaign in recent past, there are some things about memory foam to note prior to incorporating this style mattress in your RV...

1. Memory foam mattresses contour to your bodies weight, absorbing you into the mattresses padding. Keep in mind though, should you move in the midst of your sleep, memory foam doesn't bounce back for quite some time. It stays molded for a significant amount of time to the shape of your body, which can leave a low spot in the mattress as you shift in your sleep.

2. Memory foam also absorbs heat, and becomes mushy in warm climates, and hard and stiff in colder weather.

On the flip side, Latex Mattresses bounce back when you shift from one comfortable position to another, and with a bamboo membrane atop the padded topper, the mattress remains consistently cozy in any climate.

Also, consider whether the mattress can be flipped or not! Most memory foam mattresses can't, while our latex mattresses can be flipped and rotated to maintain comfort.
