Mattress America claims it has better air flow, provides the best comfort and constant freshness achieved with memory foam technology, through the open-cell design of the certain layers of foam in the mattress. Let’s see how true that is in Revive Gel Memory Foam Mattress review.
Features of Mattress America – Revive Gel 12″ Memory Foam Mattress
Foam Layers
First of all, it is important to mention that all the layers are infused with special gel. Most of the mattresses have the gel but only in one of the layers that exist in the mattress. Speaking of layers, the first layer on the top is 3-inch thick special memory foam filled with gel. It provides the “sinking” feeling when you lie down on it, and it is the thing that is responsible for the trace that is left for a couple of seconds after you press the mattress.
The second layer is sculpting foam. Because of its unique design and cell-like structure, this layer is responsible for the airflow. The air can go freely in and out of the mattress, thus keeping the constant temperature of both your body and the mattress.
Finally, the third layer is 7-inch thick base foam. This layer does not have any special properties, but it is the layer without which mattress would not have good support, a certain amount of firmness, and increased durability. Furthermore, our bodies naturally need something that will act as a support for our backs, hips and shoulders and that is exactly that this last foam layer gives.

This mattress contains the Easy Zipper design. This means that, instead of constant flipping of mattress for the sake of the unzipping the cover, you will have to unzip it only on one side before it can be completely removed.
The cover can then be washed, thus decreasing the possibility of getting infected by the bacteria that can settle down in the cover. This is also a very useful thing when it comes to removing the odor that many memory foam mattresses have for the first couple of days after the arrival.
All the materials used for the creation of this mattress are certified by CertiPUR, which means that there are no chemicals present in the foam that can be harmful to you in any way.
back to menu ↑How it feels
If the comfort can be rated on this mattress, it would be rated 9/10. I gave it nine only because during the hot summer days, if you sleep more than eight hours, you will wake up feeling a bit warmer than usual. Despite the great airstream feature, this mattress, just as all the other memory foam mattresses, still cannot maintain 100% body heat. 90% is the best it can do. On the other hand, edge support is perfect due to the 7-inch thick base, and there is virtually no noise and motion transfer.

Overall sleep experience
Revive Gel Memory Foam Mattress is made to be for everyone, although people with back pains will enjoy it the most. It received the best reviews by side-sleepers who claim that they feel rested when they wake up and that this mattress perfectly fits this group.
Although it is built as a medium-firm mattress, users mostly report that it is a little bit firmer than that and that people who are used to sleeping in really soft mattresses may have a problem adjusting for the first couple of days.
As previously mentioned, this mattress, just as 90% of memory foam mattresses, has a certain repelling but weak odor for the first couple of weeks. After you wash the cover, it will be completely removed, and you will enjoy sleeping on it.

What Do Other Mattress Geeks Think?
Shipping and Warranty
Shipping is made inside the US, and it is free. It comes tightly packed, and it will take up to 3 days for the mattress to completely restore its original size. Memory foam needs time to expand because the mattresses are usually kept packed for a long time. This can sometimes result in a mattress expanding 11 instead of 12 inches. If this happens, worry not, because the comfort and everything else will stay the same.
The mattress has a warranty for 25 years, which is a very brave move and only time will prove whether it is really that much durable.
