I just purchased one of those polyurethane memory foam mattress pads, but when I took it out of the package, I noticed that the polyurethane smell was horribly strong. Still, I slept on it, and now all my bedding and mattress (and frankly, my room!) smell like polyurethane to the point I need to rewash everything and not use the memory foam right now. Any clues as to how to get that awful "paint-like" smell to disappear from my memory foam mattress pad? If not, any idea how long until that smell coming from the memory foam will last? Will it go away on its own? I would really love to be able to use it again. I paid some money for it and it really is comfortable.

I am considering the Noraform mattress from Costco, if you have one please tell me your opinion on this. I already am sleeping with 3 memory foam mattress pads on my bed and love the uplifting feeling it gives but I need a new mattress, also can you put it on the regular box springs from your old mattress? please give detailed answers.
Thank you

Memory Foam Mattress Pad?




Are the memory foam mattress pads everything they are made out to be? If so is there a cheaper alternative to the Tempurpedic system that runs around 400 for a queen size bed? I recently received a firm mattress and would like to make it a little softer without affecting my pocket book to much. Any recommendations would be most helpful

Anyone have any luck with those new foam mattress pads for a bad back?

My sleeper sofa mattress that came with the couch is 5 ‘ thick. I am looking into memory foam mattress pads and have found them in 1, 2, and 3 inch thick. If you tri fold the bed that adds either 3, 6, or 9 inches of thickness. But since it is memory foam it will squish down. I dont think I can get a 3 inch, but will a 1 or 2 inch mattress pad work?

Best type of foam mattress topper?




I am researching the differences in foam mattress pads. There are different thicknesses, different densities, open cell versus closed cell, etc. What is the best type of mattress to get where your body can just sink down in the mattress, allowing your spine to be in the neutral position, to ultimately provide the best sleep? My mattress I have now is rather firm and I am looking for support as well as more cushion.

Why are foam mattress pads textured?




I was just curious as to the point of most foam mattress pads having that egg shell texture. Some are flat on both sides, but most seem to have this bumpy thing going on. I assume there’s some kind of reasoning behind this, anyone know what it is? Thanks.
Ahhh, I found out. http://www.myfoammattress.net/compare/egg-crate.html

Told me what I wanted to know!
