I thought I should share one of our bigger home-related purchases of late -
The Tempur … Don’t know what I am talking about? You need to know, if you are looking to buy a new mattress anytime soon. Or pillows for that matter
Tempur material is visco-elastic, recognised and certified by NASA! And all the extra details really don’t seem to matter. It is a-ma-zing!
I am sure it is not for everyone, and it does take getting used to. But it is a mattress like no other. It conforms to you, no springs, no memory foam/latex topper, – just a mattress. It feels hard and cold when you first lie down, then as your body heats it, a second later = clouds! I also have a Tempur pillow, which is heavenly. Mr J got one too, but he isn’t as big of a fan, I think it is too low profile for him.
The main reason that Mr J and I were looking in the higher end market was because I was a struggle-street sleeper. Every time he moved, I woke up = cranky Jen. We definitely needed a new mattress, but I have to admit, I may be a tad ‘sensitive’ sleep-wise. We initially looked at different types of spring mattresses to remove the ‘partner disturbance’ issue (see I am a mattress expert now
), but we still couldn’t find a stand out.
And then it was convincing time – I had come across the Tempur ages ago, but knew it was way out of our budget. But of course, there is always a sale on somewhere!
