Back in the old days I used to see my great aunt drag the feather mattresses out onto the side veranda and thrash the foreign materials out of them. I would see the dust fly onto the air building a hazy blur but to no avail, they would all go back to the mattress again. It was ineffective apparently to do that to a feather mattress but what other choice does she have without the aid of electricity, running water or modern devices that are now available to us at this time of high technology advancements. However, she and her ancestors have managed living with feather mattresses the best way they can but if they could only see the many improvements of the mattresses of today, they will be completely bewildered and frustrated.
Great aunt was blind actually and so she opted to not have electricity at all. Electricity was much too costly those days and the burden of putting up electricity poles from the central power line and then travel 3 miles just to pay for the wiring is just too much! However, our neighbor had his airstrip amid our house and the central power lines so an additional 2 miles was added to the travel route. In 1964, Papa purchased a 240-volt diesel generator for our use but Aunty didn't feel like having one. She said that she was already contented the way her 90 years of life was lived. At 95, she left the home where she spent her whole life and passed away before she turned 97. Memory foam mattress tops still have not entered existence during that time.
What is a memory foam mattress top anyway? It is used to be placed over your mattresses of any kind so this also includes feather mattresses that some still used nowadays. Memory foam mattresses mold into the contours of your body as you lie down and sleep on it. It provides ultimate support to your body especially those parts which need special attention and are rather heavy on the side so you won't wake up feeling numb and in pain. You'd be given a more comfortable good night's sleep.
It is called a memory foam mattress because it can cleave on to your position more thoroughly especially if you sleep in that position more often. Bookworms who love to read before dozing off should preferably turn their mattress habitually to maintain the firmness and function of the mattress.
