Probability of visible body impressions or significant "hammocking" developing.

Warning: Fiberglass & Edge Support

  • Fiberglass Risk (Gen 1): Older Premiere models (Pre-2023) often contain fiberglass. DO NOT remove the cover.
  • Edge Failure: "Roll-off" is a common failure mode. Do not sit on edges for prolonged periods.
  • Sleeping Hot: Cooling features deplete over time as foam density compresses and airflow is restricted.

High Risk

Est. Life: 2-4 Years

"Hammock" effect likely within 12-18 months. Foam density may not support hip pressure enough.

The Warranty "Gap"

The "Forever Warranty" requires a visible, unweighted indentation of 1.5 inches.

Why this is hard: Memory foam is resilient. Even when it loses structural support ("softens") and causes back pain, it often springs back to shape when you get out of bed.

Owner Experience: Rejection Rate

High. Most "sagging" complaints are actually "softening" complaints, which are not covered.
