Hi Pete,
We recently bought a Sealy Posturpedic mattress set. It has an odor. A strong chemical odor.
Is this normal?
How long will it take for this to dissipate if this is normal?
Can we do something to speed the dissipation process?
Thanks for your help. Charles
Hi Charles,
Normal?…Yes.
Good?…No.
Just because it’s normal doesn’t mean it’s ok.
Sealy, now owned by Tempurpedic, uses memory foam that is made of 61 different chemicals…some, of which, are highly toxic and carcinogenic.
You’re experiencing the off gassing of those toxic chemicals.
It is a health hazard to every living being in your home.
Memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented.
Not only will it make you sick, it doesn’t wear well…adding insult to injury.
Get rid of it.
DO NOT buy a mattress upholstered with memory foam….which is hard to find at most stores.
It’s not just Sealy. All of the Name Brands have been sold and all are now upholstered with memory foam.
We specialize in mattresses with NO Memory Foam in them.
Check them out through this link.
Delivery is FREE and there’s NO Sales Tax.
Thanks, Pete
VERY IMPORTANT:
Keeping your mattress clean and dry will increase its longevity.
We recommend our Organic Cotton Waterproof Mattress Protector.
