A mattress is a major purchase, not only because of cost but also because of the amount of time you’ll be sleeping on it. If you’re thinking of buying a top quality mattress and are considering buying a Jamison mattress, here are some things you should know.
Jamison has been making mattresses since 1883 and has a reputation for making the world’s finest mattresses. Jamison has over 400 retailers in the south-east of the United States and has commercial associations with Intercontinental Hotels, Choice Hotels, and a 40-year history with Marriott. On Oct. 5 Marriot announced the launch of a totally redesigned bed. Jamison was awarded the contract to manufacture the mattress – beating off rivals from around the world.
It isn’t just hotels that rate a Jamison mattress as being the best; many consumer mattress reviews also place a Jamison mattress as being the best money can buy. But why is a Jamison mattress so highly rated? Well, the answer lies in the fact that Jamison only uses the best materials available, employ the latest mattress technology and make a range of mattresses to suit everyone’s needs.
Mattresses have been using innerspring for many years. However, Jamison has taken the innerspring a stage further. Jamison took the world’s best coil – the tempered steel, fine wire LFK coil which is open-ended and double offset – and engineered it to produce the Jamison Smart Coil. Smart Coils are put together with alternating right-turn and left-turn construction. When weight is applied the two coils work in tandem, thereby reducing partner disturbance. You can find this innerspring system in the Jamison Balance, Equalizer, and Vita Pedic mattresses.
Unlike innerspring, which are connected together, pocket springs are individually contained in their own fabric pocket. The springs operate independently of each other so that ‘wave’ motion, produced by your partner’s turnings, is kept to the absolute minimum. Jamison has married the pocket coil system with the finest conjugate fibers and cashmere to produce one of the world’s most comfortable mattresses. Jamison employs this top-end pocket spring mattress in its Crest Collection mattress.
But has Jamison kept pace with the latest innovations in mattress design?
Memory foam mattresses have been a revelation in the last few years. Many people with chronic back pain have experienced the unbelievable benefits of sleeping on a memory foam mattress. Basically, memory foam responds to weight and temperature and conforms to the exact contour of the sleeper. Viscoelastic foam helps relieve pressure points and to give the correct spinal support many consumers find therapeutic.
Jamison has now started manufacturing its own version of memory foam mattress. Actually, Jamison produces three varieties of memory foam mattresses; Talalay latex, Visco memory foam and Omalon foam. All three varieties are used in the Jamison Resort Foam range of mattresses. Jamison claim, that with a latex mattress, you never need to turn the mattress and the exclusive Jamison Comfort Support System lets you choose which comfort level you desire. However, it should also be pointed out that latex doesn’t last as long as does the visco-elastic material used in TEMPUR; the material used in the making of a Tempur-Pedic mattress.
However, a memory foam mattress is not to everyone’s liking – lacking the springiness and softness of traditional inner-coil mattresses. So, if you prefer a more traditionally made mattress then Jamison mattresses might be the one for you; Jamison mattresses score highly in many consumers’ reviews.
It has to be said that a Jamison isn’t the cheapest mattress on the market and may be out of the price range of many consumers – which is a shame. But, like most things you get what you pay for; a Jamison mattress does rank as one of the very best mattresses on the market today. And Jamison makes a range of market leading mattresses, so there’s bound to be one to suit your requirements. When you consider that you spend a third of your life lying on a mattress the cost of a beautifully crafted, top-rated Jamison mattress offers real value for money.
