Does memory foam sleep hot?

Older, dense memory foam can. Our gel-infused layers are designed to draw heat away from the body, so this is far less of an issue than with basic foam mattresses.

Is memory foam good for back pain?

Yes, for most people — it distributes weight evenly and reduces pressure points, though those who need firmer, more responsive support may prefer an orthopaedic or hybrid option instead.

How long do memory foam mattresses last?

Typically 8-10 years with proper care, similar to or longer than a standard spring mattress.

Memory Foam Mattresses

Memory foam responds to body heat and weight, softening exactly where you need it and holding its shape everywhere else. It's the best fit for side sleepers and anyone dealing with joint or pressure-point pain, since it cushions shoulders and hips rather than pushing back against them.

Is a Memory Foam Mattress Right for You?

Memory foam is built for pressure relief: it softens under body heat and weight, cradling shoulders and hips rather than pushing back — which is why side sleepers and people with joint pain tend to get on best with it.

The trade-off is responsiveness: memory foam has more 'sink' and less bounce than a spring mattress, which some back and stomach sleepers find too soft for proper spinal support.

If you sleep hot, look for gel-infused or open-cell memory foam rather than dense traditional foam, which retains more heat.
