The History Of The Mattress

Mattresses are not a new invention, everyone knows this, yet it’s the way we sleep that’s so interesting. There are beds that date back to cave dwellers and magicians, and then there are office chairs and laptop tables. Then there are the mattresses.

How did the mattresses come to be?

I suppose it’s best to start with the cave dwellers.Humans aren’t the only thing that sleeps. For many thousands of years, largeatted beings would sleep in caves that were hollow. The foundation of every home is a cave. With the invention of clothes, some were able to express themselves style-wise.

Mattresses come in hundreds of shapes and sizes today, created to help fit into any space. They also come in all manner of thicknesses. You can have something so soft you can sleep in it, or something so thick you can practically stand up or sit down on it. They also come in fabric, which means no more having to iron that flaky shirt.

All of this helps create a more comfortable sleeping experience.

The History of the Mattress

It isn’t exactly known who invented the mattress, although it’s widely thought that the Phocines of Egypt were the first to design and make mattresses. Obviously, the way beds were designed before the time of Phocines was very different from the way they are designed now. The normal mattress used by people until the time of the Phocines was nothing like the modern mattress you can see so much of today.

The invention of the coil spring and the invention of the rubber inner spring are credited with the invention of the modern mattress. However, it was the Snoogle mattress made in Germany, which became a sensation, that showed the world what the future of sleep was going to be like. The Snoogle mattress was advertised as such, with six different courses to choose from, and made of such materials as lead, wool, compressed wood, and water.

The Different Backsides

You probably see a mattress with more padding than a regular mattress, but what’s the difference really? The difference is the material used to make the padding. In general, modern mattresses use memory foam, latex, and cotton.Memory foam is made from a Eugeneliveacetate-based gel. This gel gives the sleeper the best possible support and will prevent the mattress from getting squashed when you’re moving around. Latex is made from a natural form of latex. Cotton is a pile extracted from the cotton plant.

The Different Simmons Types

Simmons market the Beautyrest Black line of mattresses. These mattresses feature coils that are made of fine steel wire. The result is firm support, with less compressibility than memory foam. The Simmons Beautyrest Black coils are also made of a microferm fabric, which prevents the coils from getting squashed from the body of the sleeper.

Simmons Market the Nuvo Ultra latex mattress. These mattresses feature Nuvo gel, which like the Beautyrest Black, will not compress against the body of the sleeper. The Nuvo gel cushioning is second to none in support and comfort.

Simmons Slumber Solutions are the brand of Simmons heat and gel mattresses. These models are designed withRocket spring technology. The Simmons race system is different from any other type of memory foam on the market. The Simmonsaide’sfirst generationis comprised of 6 different layers. This is then followed by a 6-layer memory foam providing plush comfort. The body of the Simmonsaide is made with open cells, which allows the foam to breathe. The open cell structure provides that close feeling without the over abundance of open cells that are present in many memory foam brands.
