It seemed like, even as a sleep doctor, I’d reached the limitations of how much a good night’s sleep you could get from a memory foam mattress.
The memory foam mattress, while once comfortable and helpful, began to lose its effectiveness. My wife started developing sleep issues from low back pain after experiencing four herniated discs so we invested in a popular, top of the line memory foam mattress.įor a while it worked. I was someone who not only bought into the memory foam mattress trend, but I was into it. Through 2023, the market for memory foam mattresses, pillows and sleep systems is expected to grow by over 200 percent. Memory foam is a huge thing in the sleep industry, and that’s obvious whether you literally study sleep for a living, or you’re just shopping for yourself.

And for some, that’s true.īut when I tried Hastens sleep system, all of my previous ideas about bedding, support, comfort, and stability changed. Even as someone who’s spent their life researching sleep, I’d always assumed that spending around two to four thousand was all anyone would ever need to spend to get a better nights’ sleep. When I tell you my bed costs $30,000, I know what you’re thinking: $30,000 on a mattress?
