Memory Foam Mattresses

What is a memory foam mattress?

The foam in a memory mattress, also known as visco-elastic foam, was first designed by NASA in the 1970s. It was developed to counteract the extreme pressure that astronauts would face, but soon people realised how much use it could have down here on earth, too.

The memory foam in the mattress reacts to the heat of your body, shifting to embrace every curve to help you get the best support specifically for your body while you sleep. Want to know more about the science? Check out our memory foam mattress guide and how it might benefit you.

For a comfortable mattress that moulds perfectly to the shape and weight of your body, a memory foam mattress is an ideal choice. Memory foam mattresses have become increasingly popular over the years. Our range of Dreams memory foam mattresses include a variety of sizes and brands. You’re sure to find the right foam mattress to suit your sleeping needs.

Choosing the best memory foam mattress for you

If you sleep on your side or vary your sleeping position during the night, consider Medium comfort grade memory foam mattress. These provide extra cushioning that allows your body to sink further into the foam mattress while keeping your spine aligned.

For those who sleep on their front or back, a Firm or Very Firm memory foam mattress may be more up your alley. This firmness will provide increased support for your spine and joints. The additional benefit of memory foam is that it’ll respond to your body shape, providing even more support and comfort while sleeping in this position.

Our memory foam mattresses are available in a range of sizes. Whether you’re looking for a single memory foam mattress, a double memory foam mattress, a super king or any size in between, you can find the right size for your bed in our range of foam mattresses.
