Apollo 18cm Memory Foam Mattress - 4ft6 Double

Product Information

Basically, it works like this: I roll out the device, hop aboard, and let the map do the rest. As I roll around, the map records how much force I’m exerting on the mattress, creating a colored “map” of the pressure. For reference, blue indicates areas of low pressure and red indicates areas of high pressure. I was impressed with the Apollo’s ability to relieve pressure The transition layer is also made of memory foam. Although it has a similar feel as the comfort layer, there are gel infusions instead of copper. The open-cell design promotes airflow to prevent the bed from overheating. And finally, I think this mattress could work well for couples, thanks in large part to its superb ability to absorb and isolate motion. Audio and visual alarms to differentiate between low pressure, power failure and system failure errors Contour – Up next, you’ll find yet another layer of memory foam. This material has a similar feel to the one above it, but has swapped out the copper infusion for an open-cell design, which helps to promote extra airflow throughout the bed. I think folks who have traditionally avoided memory foam because of its tendency to trap heat could find a lot to love in these cooling layers!

Let’s wrap up this section with a look at motion transfer, which refers to the amount of movement detectable from one side of the bed to the other. All sleepers will want to pay attention to this feel factor, though it will probably be most relevant for those who share their bed with a partner. Featuring 20 'figure of 8' cells it is specially designed for users who are at a Very High Risk of developing pressure ulcers it is also suitable for those that have existing tissue damage (pressure ulcer grade 1 to 4). The static mode offers a stable surface to allow for extremely safe patient transfers and handling. The mattress includes 20 cells consisting of 3 static head cells and 17 alternating cells. Individual cell's 'air on air' construction reduces the risk of 'bottoming out' as the lower section of each cell remains inflated to provide a supportive base. Max Inflate Mode automatically inflates all cells to the maximum pressure setting for 20 minutes. This can be beneficial when moving or repositioning a patient. After rolling around on this bed, I decided to give it a 6/10 on the firmness scale. When compared to the industry standard of 6.5 for medium firmness, it’s clear that this bed is definitely on the softer side.If you’re in the market for a memory foam mattress that sleeps cool, the Apollo could be a fantastic fit. Not only does it feature all the great sinkage, body-contouring, and pressure relief of the popular material, but it does so without overheating at night. Lightweight Sleepers– Lightweight stomach sleepers should experience this bed as firmer, which is likely to feel good in the hip area even with a bit of contouring around the pressure points. Apollo is a single-firmness mattress made up of five layers of foam and steel coils. Each layer has unique qualities which combine to create the distinctive comfort and performance of the mattress: Comfort – Below the cooling cover, you’ll land on a comfort layer of copper-infused memory foam. This material has a slow response to pressure, allowing the sleeper to sink in for satisfying relief at the shoulders and hips. It’s also infused with cooling copper, which should help to absorb and dissipate body heat as you sink further into the mattress. Copper is also anti-microbial, so works to create an all-around healthier sleep environment. Lightweight Sleepers– Lightweight side sleepers should experience a nice contour around pressure points, although some may prefer an even softer bed that allows more sinkage in the hips, shoulders, and knees.

Average Weight Sleepers– Average-weight stomach sleepers may sink too deeply into the comfort layers, especially if they weigh closer to 230 pounds. Welded vapour permeable multi stretch PU cover to prevent fluid ingress and internal mattress contamination Designed for users at high to very high risk, or have existing tissue damage (pressure ulcer grade 1 to 4)Above its robust base layers, Apollo has one inch of micro-coils that extend entirely across the mattress. Because they aren’t walled off with long sections of rigid foam as they are in most other hybrid mattresses, this central layer allows for the easy passage of air. This creates a central breezeway that regulates temperature and keeps the mattress cool. The compression of the coils acting together with the four inches of premium memory foam above result in more overall compression than a more rigid mattress, resulting in a lower overall edge support rating. However, this is a natural result of the cushioning memory foam effect many sleepers absolutely love, and nothing to be off-put by.
