NASA Memory Foam - Myths and facts
NASA foam is suitable only for use in space
It is a fact that although the memory foam was created for NASA, it was found to have potential benefits in the health sector. And so it was used for hospital beds, nowhere related to the space. Thus, the journey started and now it is extensively been used in the mattresses.
Memory foam has a peculiar odour which can be toxic
Any packaged new material when opened does have a peculiar smell, and so does the mattress. It is the result of rapid oxidation that happens when it is exposed to the environment. However, this smell goes away after a while. The manufacturing and consumer laws are very stringent in the UK, USA and Europe, where the memory foam is extensively used. Therefore, the existence of such issues can be safely ruled out.
NASA memory foam mattress is very expensive
‘Expensive’ is a very subjective term. There are many suppliers of mattresses in the market. You just need to do your homework right. Our mission at Dolfit, is to bring you the best quality mattress at the most affordable price. As we work on door-to-door supply basis, we cut down on a lot of overheads which we happily pass on to the consumer thus making the price reasonable without compromising on the quality of the mattress.
Memory foam mattress sags and develops cavities
This is a common myth about the memory foam mattress. It is partially true in case of a low-quality mattress. It is important to weigh the quality against the price before finalizing a mattress. A good-quality memory foam mattress will not develop and cavities or will not sag. There’s always a warranty period given by the company. So if the mattress goes bad before that, the company can always take care of it.
Memory foam mattress generates heat
It is a fact that the memory foam does generate heat as it is very sensitive to body temperature. That is why Dolfit Mattress comes with a NASA memory foam with a natural bio cooling technology. This unique concept makes the mattress highly suitable for any climate and body type.
Thicker the mattress, better is the comfort
This is a myth. In fact, if the thickness is more the mattress won’t be very comfortable. Memory foam works the best when it is used in combination of other layered materials.
