Mattresses by Hardeness |
NO BAFFLES ROCK & ROLL! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TEP 0 SOFT |
This mattress contains no internal baffling. It is refered to as a standard or full float bladder. For one person the mattress will move around a lot and will settle down reasonably quickly For two people of near equal weight, the movement of one will disturb the other for about five to seven seconds. There are still a few who adore this type of mattress where movement is not an issue. For two people of different weights, the lighter one will sleep higher than the heavier partner. This type of mattress will contour into different body shapes with equal support all around If movement is not an issue then this bed should be ideal. For back pain where movement is not an issue, you may want to test this one. Those who don't mind movement and suffer from pressure points, this is probably the one Movement 60+ seconds Sales of this type of mattress is about 7%

ALMOST ROCK & ROLL | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TEP 100 to 800 Often referred to as SEMI WAVE LESS |
Mattresses with a minor amount of baffles are nealy a waste of time and sales interest is reflected
accordingly. The baffles will dampen movement a small amount. There is very little baffle support
With couples of different weights, the lighter one will still sleep higher Sales in this group is very low. Less than 1% Movement range aproximate 50 to 23 seconds

I LIKE A LOT OF MOVEMENT BUT NOT EXTREME | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TEP 900 to 1200 MEDIUM This range has been incorrectly and loosely termed waveless in the past |
Now
we are starting to really notice a reasonable amount of dampening of
wave action. Extra baffle support from underneath is getting better but
still in the lower level For the lighter single person who likes a
little movent but not overwhelming it is a possible choice Couples of
equal weight will still have a lot of movement but far less than a full
float The lighter partner in couples some weight difference will still
sleep highter but notably less Sales are still very low in this range. About 2% Movement range aproximate 20 to 11 seconds
Note: ADD $50 to above prices for lumbar support versions |
I LIKE THE FEEL OF A WATERBED BUT I DON'T WANT TO FLOP AROUND A LOT | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TEP 1300 to 1800 FIRMS This range has been incorrectly and loosely termed waveless in the past |
Now we are entering into a popular range. Although this range still has some degree of movement It is a main choice for those who like to feel a little wave action, have some baffle support and still contour nicely to body curves. For singles and lighter couples wave action stops reasonably quickly with a more gentle wave action. The lighter partner in couples where there is a reasonable degree of weight difference will still sleep higher, but nowhere near the degree of a standard full float mattress Those who suffer from pressure points and require some stability usually go for this range Sales increase sharply in this range about 30% Movement range aproximate 10 to 6 seconds
Note: ADD $50 to above prices for lumbar support versions |
I DON'T WANT TO MOVE AROUND A LOT I NEED SOMETHING FIRM FOR MY BACK BUT I DON'T WANT IT HARD and I DON'T WANT TO SLEEP ON TOP OF A HILL WHEN MY PARTNER IS IN BED |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TEP
1900 to 2200 EXTRA FIRM |
We
are now entering into another very popular range. Wave action in this
range is greatly reduced and baffle support is reasonably strong.
Singles and light couples usually stop at this level as support is
strong. Couples with reasonable weight difference also have a passion
for this range as the lighter partner is not sleeping much higher that
the heavier partner. We get more complements about our mattresses here.
Those who require stability and support for their backs usually start
in this range This is usually the upper range for those who require
support and suffer from pressure points This group would be the pick of the bunch. Sales at 50% Movement range aproximate 5 to 4 seconds
Note: ADD $50 to above prices for lumbar support versions |
I NEED SOME BACK SUPPORT AND MY PARTNER IS A LIGHT PERSON DON'T WANT MUCH MOVEMENT |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
TEP 2300 to 2500 HARD |
Being
one stage up from the previous range there is more support and
stability. Some lighter couples are starting to find this range hard.
For those who require support and stability find this rage usefull This
range notably starts another process called compression. The baffle
thickness now near the depth of the mattress now compresses when
someone lays on it as the baffle now touches the top and bottom of the
mattress skin Sales in this group are at about 6% Movement range aproximate 3 to 2 seconds
Note: ADD $50 to above prices for lumbar support versions |
