I think you’re referring to those modern foam mattresses which are made of horrid manmade materials, are cheaper for manufacturers, have better margins, don’t last as long and are too hot. Lord knows what you’re breathing in
I don’t understand why they’re so popular. Sex is far worse with them too.
Their marketing is so aggressive I think many people don’t even know pocket sprung mattresses exist.
But they’re selling in droves so maybe there’s I don’t get
But interestingly, out of the all the hotels I’ve stayed at in the past few years, I can only recall one that had a foam mattress (which was awful). Wonder why the hospitality industry favours pocket sprung too…
Foam topped I can understand. But all foam/latex… no thanks.
What’s telling is that all the very high end manufacturers use natural materials and pocket springs. They weight a tonne and are supremely comfortable (I stayed at a hotel with a €5,000 mattress. Was like sleeping on a cloud)
I mean, I was referring to cheap mattresses winning prices, this year it's a pocket spring + foam mattress called myNap TFK for 300€(Stiftung Warentest Matratzentest 2023)
>foam mattresses which are made of horrid manmade materials

Any science supporting that? Anything beeing man made is not an argument
Apart from that, testing for harmful chemicals included in the test report, and did not find a whole lot
>are too hot.
It is a tradeoff, some people like it, some don't...

To soft seams to be bad for you, to hard too.
I personally hate soft mattresses (and hotels for that reason) they are great for a night or two
But hotels are actually a good data point.
I would be interested to find some study's about it and would have thought manufacturers would plaster them all over there (expensive) products, but dead silence...
>very high end manufacturers use natural materials and pocket springs
I mean, they have to tell you something to justify the higher price. I would be more impressed if they could point to some data and say we have less from xx in the air and that's known bad for you.
