2. Turning over without interference: When you sleep with your partner, if one of them turns over frequently, it may affect the other one, but he unique pressure-relieving and shock-absorbing characteristics of memory foam will allow both to sleep without interference and sleep much better.

3. Memorize proper position: memory foam mattress can simulate the body weight distribution and body pressure, memorize the appropriate position, and meet the different needs of each person, providing the most comfortable sleeping condition.

4. Comfortable and safe: the sponge used in the memory foam mattress is environment protecting, it does not contain ozone depleting agent, odorous diphenyl ether, flame retardant, mercury, lead and other heavy metals and formic acid, with low voc (volatile organic compound) emissions
