The Tempur-Pedic mattress is totally different from most other mattresses. There are other foam mattresses, but none are made with the same quality as the Tempur-Pedic. The Tempur material is so well made that it is possible for one person sleeping in the bed to move quite a bit without disturbing the other person at all. It is also very good at conforming to the contours of the body. Instead of simply sinking into a valley on the bed, the Tempur material cradles the hips, shoulders, and other areas where more weight is held, while supporting the midsection. This means you can sleep on your side without putting your spine in an unhealthy position. Tempur-Pedic offers a 20 year warranty on the mattresses as well, which proves they have faith in their product.

On the Other: They're not for everyone

While the Temper-Pedic mattress provides a unique sleep experience, the cost can be prohibitive. They start at $999 for a double-sized mattress. Some find them uncomfortable because the material tends to make people hot as they sleep. And, if you ever want to move, it will be a real job moving that mattress, as they weigh more than twice what a regular mattress does.

Bottom Line

The Tempur-Pedic mattress is basically a great deal, if it is the right fit for you. You will use the same mattress for years and years, without needing a new one. But, if you can't afford a Tempur-Pedic mattress, chances are you can still afford a pretty good traditional mattress. Many traditionally made mattresses are very high quality and will provide you with a great night's sleep as well.
