The advantages of a foam mattress can be summed up by what The Foam King calls the “four C’s” – comfort – cleanliness – custom sizing – cost. The quality or longevity of foam is determined by its density or weight, not firmness. Denser foam has thicker cell walls that stand up better to years of expansion and contraction.

Comfort: Foam mattresses are more comfortable because there are no pressure points against the body to cause discomfort. Foam is available in comfort levels of soft, medium and firm, the choice is yours. For couples, foam gives each partner individual body support. In addition, foam doesn’t allow motion to transfer from one side of the bed to the other. If one partner is having a restless night, the other can still sleep undisturbed.

Cleanliness: All foam mattresses sold by The Foam King are hypoallergenic. There is no place for dust mites to live inside the mattress, and foam can be cleaned. Each Foam King mattress is covered with a zippered poly/cotton cover that can be easily removed for cleaning if necessary.

Custom-Sizing: The Foam King is able to make a mattress custom-cut to any size, shape, or thickness. Replacement mattresses for Long-Haul truckers and RV owners are a special service we offer.

Cost: Foam’s simple construction means the cost of a mattresses made of foam can be less than half of that of a traditional mattress. Admittedly there are some pretty inexpensive spring mattresses advertised for sale, but at what cost? How comfortable are they and how long will they last?

The Foam King sells three types of foam:

Polyurethane: Made from a by-product of the oil industry, polyurethane foam is available in a variety of densities (weights) and compressions (firmness). Each density of foam can be produced really soft, really firm or something in between.

Visco-Cell (Memory Foam): This type of foam was developed by NASA for use in the space shuttle. Foam mattress manufactures recognized the benefits that this type of foam would add to sleeping comfort, and have developed special products to help those with back problems and other sleep issues. It responds to heat and pressure to conform to the body’s natural curves and provides support to the areas that need it most, such as the neck, back and hips. This response minimizes pressure points and therefore decreases tossing and turning when sleeping.

Latex: Made of 100% pure Latex foam rubber. Latex foam is a very high quality natural product that is denser than polyurethane foam. Being natural, it is quite expensive, but mattresses and pillows made with Latex foam will last for years to come.

(Note: people who suffer from Latex allergies rarely have a problem with this quality of Latex because it's a natural product. Synthetic Latex used to make Latex Gloves causes allergy problems.)
