What is a mattress that uses memory foam?

Tempurpedic is the most common brand name, the entire mattress is supposed to be made of memory foam. There are also many "Just as good" mattresses that try to name themselves something close to that. For example, Bob's stores near us sell the "BobOPedic" mattress. If you're googling for beds, just type in "Memory foam" or ask at the store where you are shopping what beds they sell with "Memory foam." Some stores claim they have memory foam mattresses, but what they really are is a basic foam mattress with a layer of 1-3" thick memory foam on top. Be careful when shopping. Sometimes those "Layered mattresses" are a rip off, as it's cheaper to buy a piece of ordinary foam and then throw a mattress topper made of memory foam on top of it. Some people don't like having a mattress made of 100% memory foam because they feel like they're "rolling out of a hole" in the morning (the mattress sinks too much around them) so, even if you plan on buying your mattress online, go to a good mattress store and lay down on different types of memory foam beds to really see what you like. Even better, if you have friends who have a foam mattress and will let you "Borrow their bed" for the night, do that.
