Organic Mattress – A Critical Review
More and more people are changing to organic mattress.
One of the most important reasons is organic mattress is chemical free
and is a safer and healthier choice. However, organic mattress is not
shared from drawbacks. In this article, we shall critically look at the
pros and cons of organic mattress so that you as the consumer can make a
better decision whether to get an organic mattress or not.
The Benefits Of Organic Mattress
If you take the reports on the subjects as true, it seems that the
organic mattress is indeed better than the synthetic ones because the
polyurethane foam that is mostly utilized in making of the synthetic
mattress may sometimes provoke very serious allergies in people.
You can feel extremely good that you are sleeping on a
one-hundred-percent natural product. Most organic mattresses use a
combination of real wool (usually originating from France and New
Zealand) and natural latex and sometimes a percentage of cotton.
The all-natural ingredients used in organic mattress make it perfectly
safe for the use of adults and children alike. The natural wool is a
natural dust mite repellant; hence the organic mattress will have less
dust accumulation which will make it safer and healthier to sleep on.
The wool used in most organic mattress is also a perfect insulation,
keeping you warm in winter and cold in summer. It also absorbs humidity,
thus giving you a dry, chemical-free, allergy-free, environment-friendly
sleeping medium.
The above reasons are just some of the basic rationale to choose and use
an organic mattress. Besides the fact that it helps the environment
along, organic mattress also gives a lot of satisfaction and a very good
sleep. The organic mattress is able to breathe and hence you feel
comfortable sleeping on it, even when it is hot and unpleasant.
Drawbacks Of Organic Mattress
The first drawback of organic mattress is probably the cost. An organic
mattress can cost somewhere between $800 to $3500. Latex-wool combined
organic mattress is the most expensive. The cheapest is organic
spring-cotton mattress.
Some consumers report that organic mattress give a sticky smell and may
trigger headache. Another possible drawback of organic mattress is that
the wool and cotton content can easily pack down and sag over time.
However, from our experience, it depends on the brand of organic
mattress you buy. Lastly, if you purchase organic mattress that is made
of natural latex and cotton, there may be a potential fire hazard.
Consumer Beware When Buying Organic Mattress
Beware, though, that not all the organic mattresses that are advertised
are 100% organic mattress. Many are indeed made of natural wool and
other pertinent ingredients. However, some organic mattresses are also
treated with fire-retardant chemicals (formaldehyde), coated with
plastics to render them waterproof, covered with polyester to wash
easily and so on.
When you go for the organic mattress, ensure that you get a mattress
which is organic all the way, in and out. Refuse any chemical or
synthetic embellishment. Choose an organic mattress that is one hundred
percent organic. Be stubborn when you look for the totally organic
mattress. 100% organic mattress definitely exists since many leading
brands are now launching their all organic mattress.
