Ubuthongo Bokukhohlwa (Nombhede Uyakhumbula)1

Amy Scott.
12,2007 uma usanda kuguqula imagazini noma uvule i-TV noma umsakazo, ungase uhlangane nezikhangiso zobuchwepheshe bokuphromotha komatilasi obuthuthukiswe yi-NASA.
Abantu abaningi abahlobanisi umkhumbi-mkhathi nokulala kahle ebusuku.
Phela, ubani ongakwazi ukuthi akukho lutho ngaphandle kongqimba oluncane lwensimbi phakathi kwabo nokukhohlwa?
Kodwa yilokho kanye izinkampani ezakha lezi zikhala ezikushayelayo --
Umatilasi weminyaka yobudala usuphenduke umthengisi odumile.
Ngawo-1970s, i-NASA yazama ukuphuma ku-G-
Thatha amandla-Izwe nomhlaba.
Ososayensi bezikhungo baqhamuke nalokhu abakubiza ngokunamathela
I-Elastic Memory Foam-iminyene, ukushisa nokucindezela-
Igwebu elizwelayo elilingana nesimo somzimba, futhi lapho ukucindezela kususwa, libuyela esimweni sokuqala.
Ngemva kohambo oluningana, i-NASA yanquma ukuthi impahla yayingaqinile ngokwanele ukuze ihlangabezane nezidingo zendiza yasemkhathini.
Kodwa ososayensi baseSweden baye baqaphela ukuthi leli gwebu lingaba usizo emisebenzini eyengeziwe yomhlaba njengokulala, futhi kwathatha iminyaka eyishumi ukuliguqula.
Umatilasi wokuqala we-memory foam wafika e-United States ngo-1994.
Abahlaziyi bathi omatilasi abangaphezu kuka-80% abadayiswa ezweni lonke basengomatilasi besintu.
Leli bhamuza lenkumbulo limelela ingxenye encane kuphela, ngaphansi kuka-3%.
Kodwa omatilasi sebethandeka kakhulu kubantwana abanesisindo esiphezulu.
Ifenisha--
Lala kahle.
Abakhiqizi balaba matilasi bathanda ukuveza ukuthi umklamo oyisisekelo kamatilasi awukashintshi cishe eminyakeni eyikhulu kusukela intwasahlobo yangaphakathi yensimbi yaqala ukuthatha indawo ka-Ma Mao.
\"Sizamile ukuza sithi bekunendlela engcono yokulala," kusho u-H . \"
UThomas Bryant, umongameli, imisebenzi yaseNyakatho Melika, iThempeli
Umkhiqizi e-Lexington, Kentucky.
Njengabanye abakhiqizi, i-Tempur-
Igwebu, uPedic uthi, linikeza ukwesekwa okungenakuqhathaniswa komatilasi bendabuko.
Igwebu lenkumbulo aliphindiseli emuva njengentwasahlobo yangaphakathi, kodwa lihambisana nohlaka lomzimba wakho, linikeza isikhundla ezintweni ezinzima njengezinqulu namahlombe. Lezi zinkampani ezimbili zisho lokho ngenkathi zisekela izindawo ezilula njengomgogodla.
Banezela ukuthi ngenxa yokuthi isisindo sisatshalaliswa ngokulinganayo, ucishe ube nomuzwa wokuntanta esikhaleni, futhi igwebu lisiza ukunqanda ukunyakaza komlingani olele ongaphumuli.
Omatilasi basetshenziswa kakhulu ezibhedlela nakubantu abadala
Ngoba angakwazi ukukhulula ukucindezela futhi anciphise ubuhlungu bengcindezi.
Umatilasi we-memory foam akudingeki ukuthi ushintshwe njalo futhi ngeke kube khona uthuli.
Kukhona ukushiyeka.
Omatilasi begwebu abenziwe nge-polyurethane bazokhipha iphunga elinamandla ezinsukwini ezimbalwa zokuqala.
U-Katie Tabeling, okhulumela u-Tempur
I-Pedic ithe iphunga likhishwe kugwebu ngemuva kokukhishwa kwephakheji futhi lalingenabungozi. UDkt. Jerome F.
UMcAndrews, okhulumela i-American Chiropractic Association, uthe uyangabaza ngezinye zezicelo zokumaketha zikamatilasi omusha, njengombono wokuthi igwebu linezinkumbulo.
\"Inhlangano incoma umatilasi osekela umzimba ngokukhetha, ukuze, isibonelo, umgogodla wakho uqonde uma ulele eceleni kwakho.
Isekela okusezingeni eliphezulu
Qeda umatilasi onodonga lwasentwasahlobo olunamakhulu eziphethu zangaphakathi
UMcAndrews, ongakaze azame umatilasi we-memory foam, uyavuma ukuthi lesi siphakamiso singachaza nomatilasi wegwebu lenkumbulo. UDkt.
UJodi Fidler, ohlinza umzimba eSt.
Louis Park eMinnesota
Lala ku-Tempur ngaso sonke isikhathi-
Umatilasi iminyaka eyisikhombisa futhi uncome umatilasi eklayenti lakhe.
USusan Ebaugh, isikhulu esiphezulu somkhiqizo ka-Serta, wathi mayelana nebhamuza lenkumbulo: \"Kunomuzwa ohlukile;
Akusho ukuthi kuhle noma kubi.
\"Ngokuhlangenwe nakho kwethu,\" wengeza, \"abantu abaningi basancamela intwasahlobo yangaphakathi.
Nokho, Serta nezinye Interiors ezinkulu
Abakhiqizi basentwasahlobo bangeza igwebu kulayini wabo wokukhiqiza. Indlovukazi-
Umatilasi wegwebu lenkumbulo kasayizi ka-$1,000 kuya ku-$3,000--
Iphakeme kakhulu kunezintengo eziningi ezijwayelekile zangaphakathi
Kodwa namanje ephansi kunabanye professional okunethezeka omatilasi abaneziphethu.
Isibonelo, ungathenga umbhede wakwa-Dux ovela e-Sweden ngo-$4,000 kuya ku-$7,000, noma enye inkampani yase-Sweden, i-Hastens, ngo-$20,000.
Ummeli waseNew York uCarole Chervin ungumguquli. UNksz.
UChervin wayekhathazwa ubuhlungu benyonga ngesikhathi elele eceleni wamthola ephenduka ephindelela.
Wathatha umhlalaphansi eneminyaka engu-15. Ingaphakathi lonyaka ubudala-
Umatilasi wasentwasahlobo, ekugcineni eTempur-
Ngemva kokuzama eyodwa esitolo sase-Brookstone, i-pedik.
\"Umbhede uyadayiswa ngempela . \"Chervin, 39.
Sicela uchofoze ibhokisi ukuze uqinisekise ukuthi awulona irobhothi.
Ikheli le-imeyili alivumelekile. Sicela uphinde ungene.
Kufanele ukhethe i-newsletter ofuna ukuyibhalisa.
Buka zonke izincwadi zezindaba ze-New York Times.
Uthe ulale kamnandi futhi enempilo emasontweni ambalwa kamuva.
\"Impela ngivuke kancane\" kusho yena . \".
Yebo, kubalulekile ukuhambahamba.
Wonke amabhamuza enkumbulo ahlukile futhi i-hype yokumaketha kunzima ukuyixazulula. I-Tempur-
I-Pedic Yethula izinto ze-Tempur, kuyilapho i-Dormia, inkampani ephethwe ngokunethezeka kwabadala, inikeza i-poses-Temp. Okungeziwe-
I-Pedic of Strobel Technologies ingumnikazi wePolyfilax. Konke kuyi-visco-
Igwebu elithambile, eliningi noma ngaphansi ngokususelwe ekwakhiweni kwe-NASA. Kodwa Tempur-
I-Pedic ingenye yezinkampani ezimbalwa ezinefomula yazo yegwebu.
Izinkampani eziningi zithola amabhamuza kubahlinzeki abakhulu njengababazi noma i-Foamex International.
Igwebu elihle lenkumbulo lisebenzisa idizayini \"yebhethri elivulekile\" elivumela umoya ukuthi ujikeleze futhi uhlakaze ukushisa, futhi liminyene ngokwanele ukunikeza ukusekela okuhle, kusho ochwepheshe.
Bashaya ngokucophelela, bathi.
\"Imboni yokulala inomusi omningi nezibuko," kusho u-Steve Amis, umqondisi kazwelonke wezokuthengisa e-Springwall, othengisa omatilasi be-memory foam base-Belgian ngaphansi kohlobo lwe-European trex.
Njengoba sonke sazi, abanye abathengisi bazenza izinhlobo zamamatilasi aphansi
Ukuqamba amamodeli, noma ukuwakhangisa ezimeni ezifanayo
Ngokuvamile zithengiswa ngamadola angamakhulu ambalwa.
Uma ungaqiniseki, sicela uthintane nomkhiqizi ukuze uqinisekise ukuthi isitolo esithile sinemikhiqizo yaso. UNksz.
Kwakukhona isitolo esasimnikeze ukuthi athengise i-Tempur-
Ngemuva kophenyo olunzulu, i-Pedic yaba uhlobo oluhlukile lwe-$ 500.
Isikhangiso, vele, ukuphela kwendlela yokukutshela ukuthi umatilasi ukulungele yini ukuwuzama.
Ungase uqaphele ngokushesha umehluko phakathi kwe-foam yememori kanye nentwasahlobo yangaphakathi, kodwa umehluko phakathi kwemikhiqizo ungase ungabonakali.
Ochwepheshe batusa ukuba ulale kuwo wonke amacansi esitolo imizuzu eyi-10 kuye kweyi-15.
\"Ngezinye izikhathi kudingeka sinxuse abantu ukuthi bafake omatilasi futhi bahlale kubo isikhashana," kusho uBrian M. \"
Benko, isekela likamongameli uDormia.
Vele, okuthandwayo komatilasi kuyindaba yomuntu siqu futhi igwebu lememori lingase lingabi into ethandwa yiwo wonke umuntu.
U-Debra Bergman, umdidiyeli wethelevishini ozimele e-Manhattan, uthole ukuthi abanye omatilasi be-memory foam babecishe baxege kakhulu.
\"Utshona nje, utshona futhi utshone\" watsho . \".
Ekugcineni, wakhetha indlovukazi ngo-$1,200 --
Umatilasi we-Sonno ongusayizi, odizayinelwe ukuhlanganisa igwebu lenkumbulo eliyi-intshi elingu-2 negwebu le-polyurethane elijwayelekile elingu-6 intshi ukuze kuzwakale kuqine.
Abakhiqizi abaningi banikeza isikhathi sokuhlolwa futhi izinkampani eziningi zinikeza isikhathi sewaranti. I-Tempur-
Isibonelo, isikhathi somshuwalense we-Pedic iminyaka engu-20, kanti isikhathi somshuwalense we-Dormia yiminyaka engama-25.
Uma usaqaphile, ungaqala ngomcamelo wegwebu lenkumbulo obiza cishe u-$80 ukuze ubone ukuthi uzokwazisa noma iyiphi indiza --nge-space-amaphupho.
Ukulungiselela okusheshayo uma ufuna ukuthenga umatilasi we-foam wenkumbulo ngokusekelwe kubuchwepheshe obuthuthukiswe yi-NASA, nazi izici okufanele uzikhumbule: i-pros foam ilingana nomzimba wakho futhi ingasekelwa ngokugcwele.
Ayikho intwasahlobo yangaphakathi emise okwegagasi.
Igwebu lisiza ukunqanda ukunyakaza kwabalingani bokulala.
Impahla ayinalo uthuli futhi umatilasi awudingi ukuphendulwa njalo.
Abanye abantu bangase bangawuthandi umuzwa wokucwila.
Igwebu liqala ngephunga lamakhemikhali.
Amabhamuza ekhwalithi ephansi angalahlekelwa amandla okugxuma ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.
Izindleko zingase zibe phezulu kumodeli ye-interiorspring ejwayelekile.
Sihlala sithuthukisa ikhwalithi yezingobo zomlando zombhalo.
