Tempur-Pedic Mattress Pad

Sleeping is one of the "must have" items in our life. How well we can maximize the quality of our sleep translate into more time for all the other interesting things there are to do in our world today be it more time with your family, for work, hobbies, time to experience new things.


While doing my research for the "best" mattress (that has not concluded at this time), I came across the Tempur-Pedic Mattress Pad. What a great way to test out a much hyped bedding system for a relatively "small" investment?! This Swedish mattress material generically called memory foam came out of NASA's search to reduce g-forces experienced by the astronauts. There are now several other USA memory form mattress available on line such as  www.absolutecomfortonsale.com, www.selectfoam.com. Various brand foam mattresses are also available on Amazon.com, Overstock.com, Macys.com, Costco.com, walmart.com.




The mattress pad comes in 2 thickness: 1 inch and 3 inches. Brookstone.com only carries the 1-inch thick mattress pad (starts at USD299) and Tempurpedic has the 3-inch thickness on their website (starts at USD532).


I would recommend the 1 inch mattress pad for those that are currently already pretty happy with their mattress performance but are just looking for a little "up-grade". The 3-inch mattress pad I think would be more suitable for those that like to sleep on the floor occasionally or use it for guest sleeping instead of having to have space for a sleeper sofa or futton.
