High Level Synopsis Of Tempurpedic Beds
Friday, November 28th, 2008If you’re considering a Tempurpedic bed for your next mattress purchase, keep reading for a helpful overview of their product range, including different sleep system features, accessories, price points and where you can purchase their products.
The Science Behind TEMPUR
Rather than being an air mattress, the “technology” behind Tempurpedic beds is the TEMPUR material used to create the mattresses’ upper layers. The material actually absorbs body weight and pressure, meaning the mattress will conform to your shape and short of cradle you once you lay down.
Allergen Resistant
Every Tempurpedic mattress is sprayed with an anti-allergen treatment designed to prevent dust, mold and mites from infesting or getting inside the mattress. The covers are also removable and washable, allowing you to clean them regularly. And none of the manufacturer’s mattresses contains any formaldehyde or toxic CFC.
Pillows and Accessories
You don’t have to own a complete Tempurpedic bed sleep system to enjoy its helpful TEMPUR material experience. The company also sells pillows, office lumbar cushions and bed accessories like linens and mattress covers.
The company’s office product lines include lumbar pillows, task chair covers and ergonomically designed seat cushions all designed with the intent of taking pressure points off your back and provide a more comfortable work environment.
Tempurpedic’s pillow products include a range of basic sizes, body pillows and neck pillows. The TEMPUR material and inherent design are made to conform to the contours of your neck, which helps to eliminate a stiff neck and consequently provide a more comfortable night’s sleep.
Pricing and Costs
A Tempurpedic is not an inexpensive mattress. Starting at $700 for a basic, twin-sized Original Bed sleep system and going up to almost $6700 for a king-sized Grand Bed, the luxury model, Tempurpedic Beds can be much more expensive than many will be able to afford. However, many sleepers wrestling with uncomfortable mattresses and sore backs would likely argue that the extra expense is well worth it. So there’s definitely a trade-off.
Financing is also available, direct from the Tempurpedic website (tempurpedic.com) or often through retailers like Sears, Macy’s or Bloomingdale’s. Deals can also be found online, but consumers should be aware of counterfeit models.
Tempurpedic’s Warranty
All Tempurpedic beds come with a 20-year warranty. This warranty covers any defaults or defects in the manufacturing of the bed or problems that have arisen as a direct result of faulty workmanship.
The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear or the “normal increase in softness of the TEMPUR material,” which is a natural occurrence and doesn’t actually affect the performance of the material.
In addition, any mattresses that are replaced after 11 years will be charged a prorated replacement rate of 50 percent of your original purchase cost. However, despite their warranty restrictions, Tempurpedic Beds rarely need to be replaced. The company has a phenomenally high level of long-term customer satisfaction.
