Product Improvement Test of Polyurethane Foam Mattresses

Abstract

The standard and experimental mattresses were continued in use without rotation of types until the twelfth and final 4-week period. During this period, each of 37 participants was assigned a mattress for 2-week periods of use of each type. Interviews were conducted after the 4 weeks of use for evaluation and comparison of the two types for comfort, compatibility with beds, and preference for continued use. The responses obtained in these interviews are shown.
