Motion Isolation & Edge Support

Owners can change position freely on Sealy Optimum mattresses without disturbing the partner thanks to less motion transfer. Sealy Optimum enables people to sit or sleep at the edge of the mattress without sliding off. And, few people report poor edge support.

Initial Odor & Sleeping Hot

Quite a number of people complain about the unpleasant initial odor in the period of using Sealy Optimum mattress. People who usually sleep hot might as well choose other mattresses because Sealy Optimum has a troublesome heat trap that will make sleepers uncomfortable.

Noise & Break-in Period

Similar to most mattresses, Sealy Optimum mattress seldom has noise when sleepers lie or move on it. The break-in period depends on different models, and like most foam mattresses, it may take a long time for people to get used to the mattress especially for firm models.

Maintain & Move

It is advised to rotate the mattress regularly as a strategy for avoiding the sagging and wear though flipping the mattress is highly discouraged. Designed with no handles and weighing about 40-130 lbs depending on different sizes and models, Sealy Optimum will be difficult for people to move.
