Since you're so impressed, perhaps you would be happy to answer a
long-standing query I have with regard to memory foam mattresses?

Although it can be demonstrated that they do 'remember', say, the
pressure of a hand (as in the advertising), how do we know they're
remembering a good posture, as opposed to a bad posture?

I've never thought that 'memory' foam was a particularly good name...

What my back appreciates about it, is that, for instance, when I lie on my
side, my well-rounded hip sinks in to the mattress, but my waist is still
properly supported - it allows my spine to be straight, rather than
curving sideways to fit the flat, firm, surface of my previous sprung
mattress.

Exactly the same here. Wonderful support!

In very hot, humid weather, I add a fluffy cotton-covered mattress pad. It
slows down the shape-accommodation of the foam, but stops me feeling hot
and sticky.
