Advantages of DixieFoam Bedstm

A DixieFoam Bed is nothing to sneeze at

Judging Foam Quality

Density is a measure of weight, not firmness.  The higher the density, the higher the quality in terms of durability, resilience and support, provided that the foam is "prime" (not loaded with mineral filler, but pure).  DixieFoam Bedstm uses only prime foam.  Latex and Visco-Elastic (Memory Foam) and Hi-Resilience Carbamate are among the highest density foams available.

Resilience is the bounciness or elasticity of the foam.

Firmness (more accurately, surface firmness) is the resistance to compression near the surface of the mattress.  It is measured by the surface Indentation Force Deflection, or IFD, measure.  Deep-down firmness is the IFD measurement under severe compression.

Support factor is the ratio of deep-down IFD to the surface IFD of the mattress.  It is an extremely important measure of the resistance to bottoming out under sustained pressure.
