The most regrettable consumption this year is the palm mat.
I've always heard people say that the palm mat is so good and so good, and this year I gritted my teeth and finally spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy a palm mat. But the first night I lay on it I regretted it: the legendary "benefits" were not experienced at all, and all kinds of discomforts tortured me to sleep. I thought it was not Xi, but now that I have used it for more than half a year, I still find it difficult to sleep.
It doesn't seem to be my problem, it's the palm mat's problem.
#01. Too hard
I've been sleeping on spring mattresses since I was a teenager and now I'm thirty years old, and I've been sleeping for more than ten years. Suddenly changing into a palm mat, it gives me the feeling of "hard", it is simply too hard!
It's different from anything else: I've slept on a board bed (a bed without a mattress) and it didn't feel so hard. The hardness of the palm mat is much higher than that of the wooden plank, and it feels like a ...... Marbled?
Not to mention sleeping, sometimes I kneel on the bed to make the bed, and my knees are red when I get out of bed. It's hard to understand where exactly the so-called "health" comes from, I slept here for half a year, and every day was accompanied by muscle aches.
#02.Poor support
So do you think a soft bed is healthier or a hard bed is healthier? There was a debate before, but now there is a standard answer: a bed with strong support is healthier.
The so-called support means that the bed supports the body just right. When we lie down, our bodies are curved, and the concave shape of the bed should be just the same as our body.
Some spring mattresses will become a pit in the buttocks after lying down, which is not considered supportive. The palm mat I bought was dented at all after lying down, and it was still a flat plate, and the body was partially suspended, which was not considered supportive.
#03. The price is high
I remember that when I was a child, my parents saved up for a long time before they were finally willing to buy me (not for themselves, but for their children) a spring mattress. I can't imagine that the situation is the other way around:
A mid-range spring mattress costs only two or three thousand yuan, while a similar palm mat costs nearly ten thousand yuan. Cheap palm mats are generally coconut palm, which is rare in the market.
Not only is the price high, but the handling price is also high. Mainly because it's too heavy: my mat feels like it's hundreds of pounds, and I can't even lift it for a lady. If you call a moving company, you need to charge an additional 50 yuan.
#04.Not necessarily environmentally friendly
The biggest selling point of the palm mat is environmental protection, but is it really environmentally friendly? At least compared with the spring pad, its environmental protection is not very good: inferior palm mats are glued with glue, and the formaldehyde content is huge.
The spring pad is at most the poor quality of the spring, there will not be so many pollutants! During the use of the mat, the mat will also become a paradise for microorganisms, which is easy to grow insects and mold, which will not appear in the spring pad.
As for "breathability", forgive me for not really understanding it - I don't think that the gap between the brown fibers can have much of an impact on "breathability". Besides, no matter how big the gap between the brown fibers is, is the gap between the springs much larger?
#05.Life is worrisome
On the day of delivery of my mattress, I saw a warning on the outer packaging: it is recommended to replace the head and tail every six months. I asked the delivery worker, and he said that he was afraid of pressing the palm mat out of the pit.
It was also at this time that I realized that the life of the palm mat was so short: the worker told me that the inferior palm mat was okay because the glue was strong enough. But good mats are hot-pressed, and there are many gaps in the middle, so it is easy to press out of the pit.
Obuchi concluded
At the end of the article, let's summarize the 5 "pitfalls" I encountered while using the palm mat:
(1) It is not suitable for people who are hard and Xi to sleeping on soft beds;
(2) It is not suitable for people who have poor support and pursue health;
(3) The price is high, and it is not suitable for people who are sensitive to price;
(4) Poor environmental protection, pay attention to the right brand and product;
(5) It is not suitable for people with short life span and large body weight.
Since this does not apply, then it does not apply, who is applicable? Xiao Yuan also gave you two suggestions:
• People who are Xi to sleeping in hard beds are also relatively wealthy — or as the salesperson who sold me the mattress said, "Most of the people who come to our store are middle-aged and elderly people with higher pensions." ”
• Multi-layer mattresses, which can be used as a base or surface layer with brown mats. That is, instead of using "brown" as a mattress alone, with springs, memory foam, latex and other materials to make up for the lack of hardness and support of the palm pad.
