About Tempur-Pedic



Tempur-Pedic, (now part of Tempur Sealy International), has been revolutionizing the mattress industry for more than two decades with cutting-edge designs and superior mattress construction. They're constantly staying on top of the latest mattress technologies and evolving their mattresses to remain at the top of the pack. The Tempur memory foam formula remains a guarded secret. When you choose Tempur ProAdapt or any of the classic collections, you can rest assured that you're getting an innovative, smartly designed mattress unlike any other. The best Tempur-Pedic mattresses give you value for money!

At the heart of all Tempur-Pedic mattresses is a steadfast commitment to quality. There's a reason their name is so ubiquitous, and it's because they truly care about giving their customers their best sleep possible. They're an excellent mix of quality and comfort in most Tempur-Pedic Mattresses and are perfect for anyone looking for a well-made mattress to support them for years to come.

One of the most notable, unique features of a Tempur-Pedic is its material. The proprietary TEMPUR material isn't like ordinary memory foam mattress. Tempur-Pedic mattresses are made with pressure-relieving material originally developed by NASA to absorb the G-Force of astronauts during lift off, then perfected by us for sleep.

Another benefit to Tempur-Pedic over normal memory foam mattresses is that they can be paired with an adjustable base for even more supportive and comfortable sleep. With an adjustable base, you can shift your mattress into a variety of different positions to help with pain, mobility issues, comfort levels, and even certain sleep disorders. If you want a highly-functional, customizable, and comfortable sleep situation, a Tempur-Pedic combined with an adjustable base may just be your perfect fit. The memory foam comfort layers offer you just enough softness to side or back sleepers.

To make it even better, if you shop with Sleep First, you get an exclusive 20-year warranty on any Tempur Pedic's line of mattresses. Few online mattresses stores can't match up our offers. When you buy a Tempur-Pedic® mattress at Sleep First, the first 10 years of the warranty are covered directly by the manufacturer, Tempur-Pedic® themselves. Sleep First offers you an exclusive EXTRA TEN YEARS covered directly by ServeCo, a global leader serving huge companies and their customers for more than three decades. That means no matter what happens to us, you're covered. You can rest easy knowing that your investment is comfortable and protected.

Are you liking the sound of this and wondering what the different choices are?

The TEMPUR Mattress Collection has an array of mattresses with the latest advancements in mattress technology for you to choose from. You can find a nice mattress within the Tempur-Pedic firmness scale. Ditch your old mattress and get a new mattress that promotes spinal alignment and ensures natural, healthy sleep position every night, even for hot sleepers!

What is the Right Tempur-Pedic Mattress for Me?



Tempur Pedic offers a range of memory foam mattresses designed for pressure relief and restorative sleep at different price points. The right type of mattress depends on your sleeping needs, comfort levels, and bed size. Keep the following things in mind when choosing Tempur-Pedic Mattresses.

Think of your sleep position


Stomach and back sleepers often require a firmer mattress for proper spine alignment. Side sleepers can benefit from a softer mattress made from TEMPUR-ES®, which also provides enough spinal support. If you've been sleeping on an old mattress that doesn't suit your sleeping position, narrow down your options along this line. Fortunately, Tempur-Pedic offers a range of surface comforts, making it easy to find the best Tempur-Pedic mattress for your sleeping position.

Are you a hot sleeper?


If you usually sleep warm, there's a good chance your mattress has a hand in it. Many Tempur-Pedic reviews indicate that certain types of beds contribute to hot sleep as their materials tend to hug the body. Choosing a Tempur foam mattress that has firmer surface can help promote airflow during sleep.

Body weight


People with heavy bodies will sink more into foams, no matter how dense the material is. Firmer mattresses, including those with inner spring can provide the extra body support you need. Best of all, they may hold up for longer.

Your budget


If your budget is tight, you need to consider your sleeping needs and comfort levels in regard to what you can afford to purchase. Tempur-Pedic is a premium mattress brand that's known to deliver high quality mattresses. With superior construction and materials comes a higher price tag. Many decent alternatives are available if you can't find a mattress at the right price.

Mattress foundation


Your choice of mattress foundation also matters when buying a queen or king size Tempur-Pedic mattress. We recommend platform beds for memory foam as they provide a flat surface for proper back support. Most platform beds cost less than traditional bed frames. For the best sleep experience, get a Tempur-Pedic bed frame that's optimized for your mattress type.

What Customers Are Saying About Tempur-Pedic



“Alex was very helpful with our first Tempur-Pedic purchase. He didn't pressure us into buying anything and was very knowledgeable. We enjoyed our experience at Sleep First.”
-Jana Lazarewicz

“Aaron helped us with purchasing yet another Tempur-Pedic bed. There was no way we couldn't get anything other than another Tempur-Pedic for us. But we didn't at all feel pressured as you do at a car dealership. He was very knowledgeable and showed us the differences between each type. If you need any assistance in getting the top of the line beds as in Tempur-Pedic, Aaron is your guy.”
-Linda Perniz

“The best bed I have ever owned. I literally just slept 12 hours the first day having the Tempur-Pedic w/adjustable base. They definitely were professional and genuinely cared about my wants in a new bed. I highly recommend this place. Thanks to Ashley and her manager Keni. They really did take care of me and my wife we are beyond satisfied with our purchase and the service we were given.”
