Comment on YSK Tempur Mattresses fail quickly and the warranty is fake
Ostrakon@lemmy.world 1 week ago
I’m not gonna defend Tempurpedic not honoring their warranty but it’s disingenuous to say it failed “quickly” after 8 years of use for what sounds like normal wear to me. A lot of warranties in the mattress space have riders like using a mattress cover (which is a sensible investment regardless) and might have prevented this.
Tempur sounds like they suck, but you should probably have realistic expectations

Fair point. It lasted 4-5 years solid. 6-8 clearly rapid failure.
Quickly is relative to the 10 year warranty.
I paid (usd 5k plus - king size) with a warranty in mind. Was told ‘our material is different, worth it’ - Full sales job. I’m technical, but details matter and they’re proprietary. I trusted the warranty + brand, which was a bad, expensive move.
Realistic expectations - memory foam lasts 4-5 years, more or less depending on pressure and humidity, and should be priced accordingly. YSK!
