Frequently asked questions
A gel memory foam mattress is a type of mattress that uses a gel material in its construction. Gel mattresses are designed to provide superior comfort and support compared to traditional mattresses.
Gel memory foam mattresses typically feature a layer of gel-infused memory foam that contours to the body and helps relieve pressure points. This can provide significant pain relief for people suffering from arthritis or back pain. Gel mattresses also tend to be cooler than traditional memory foam mattresses, making them ideal for hot sleepers.

Gel mattresses are increasingly popular, though they're not everyone's ideal comfort layer. So, we've compiled a list of gel mattresses' key pros and cons to help you decide if they're right for you.
Pros:
- Gel mattresses contour to the body and help to relieve pressure points, providing pain relief for conditions like arthritis or back pain.
- Gel mattresses are cooler than traditional memory foam mattresses and won’t trap body heat, making them ideal for hot sleepers.
- Gel mattresses offer superior comfort and support compared to traditional mattresses.
- Zero partner disturbance or motion transfer means you’ll sleep soundly all night long
Cons:
- Gel mattresses may be more expensive than traditional mattresses.
- Gel mattresses may be too firm for some people.

While the additional cost of memory foam mattresses may make them undesirable for some, many find these benefits worth the extra investment.
A gel mattress can provide excellent support for your back and help to relieve pressure points, providing pain relief for conditions like arthritis or back pain. It works by contouring to the sleeper’s body and distributing the weight evenly.
If you suffer from back pain, a gel mattress may be a good choice for you.
There is no definitive answer to this question as it depends on personal preferences. Some people find that gel memory foam mattresses tick all the boxes in terms of support and comfort and are also cooler than traditional memory foam mattresses due to their exceptional temperature regulation. In contrast, others find traditional memory foam to be just as comfortable.
Ultimately, it is up to the individual to decide which type of mattress is best for them. However, a gel mattress may be a perfect choice if you are looking for a mattress that offers superior comfort and support.

On average, gel mattresses will last around 7 years. However, this will vary depending on the quality of the mattress and how well it is cared for.
