subject: Platform Beds: The Smart Choice [print this page] Whether you are planning to go camping, staying for the weekend at a relative's or friend's house, or having a sleep-over for the kids one of the best, most versatile, and most affordable options is to use an inflatable mattress. Any time you find yourself in need of quick and easy additional bedding an inflatable mattress is most likely to offer the best solution.
You may wonder what makes the memory foam mattress pad so special. Well, the memory foam that composes the memory foam mattress pad responds not only to the form and shape of your body, but also to your body weight. As you are nestled perfectly into the memory foam mattress pad for a good night's rest you are less likely to toss and turn in futile attempts to find a comfortable sleeping position. As a result of lying on a memory foam mattress pad you may feel as if your body just melts right into the memory foam mattress pad itself.
The memory foam mattress pad eliminates worries that your bedding will be too firm or too soft, instead each time you use the memory foam mattress pad you will feel like Goldilocks once she finally settled on the bed that was just right!
There is no reason to just take our word for it, and no reason to simply believe all the hype. Do a comparison test for yourself. Test out the memory foam mattress pad against a plain traditional mattress or futon and see if you agree that the memory foam mattress pad adds a whole new dimension to comfort.
One added benefit of platform beds is that they do not require the use of box springs which if you have to move frequently or if you just have more minimalist sensibilities may be particularly appealing. Also, depending on the mattress used, you may find that platform beds provide a different type of back support than traditional mattress and box springs due to the direct contact of the mattress with the supporting slats or platform.
