Known to cause discomfort as well as tossing and turning.Prorated Warranty 有限质保Mattress Warranty that does not cover the full mattress purchase price or replacement value after a certain period of time, requiring the customer to pay a portion of the original price to have it replaced, typically depending on how long the mattress was used.Quilting 间棉层The top-most layer of padding inside the mattress, consisting of Foam and/or Fibers stitched to the underside of the Ticking. Can provide additional Comfort, as well as a way for the mattress to breathe, and may also include a separate layer of padding such as a Pillow-Top or Euro-Top. Also refers to the process by which the quilting layer is stitched to the ticking and other padding layers of the mattress. Common quilting processes include: Multi-Needle Quilting, Single-Needle Stitching, and Tack and Jump Quilting.

Generally considered slightly stiffer than natural latex, but also more consistent in quality, giving it slightly better Resiliency over a very long period of time.Tack and Jump Quilting 跳针间棉Quilting process that uses hundreds of needles but is not limited to a continuous pattern, allowing for more Loft and a softer-feeling surface. Typically found in more expensive mattresses.Tape Edge 边带The cord-like seam that runs along the edges of the mattress surface.Tempering 回火/热处理Process by which Coils are treated to ensure that they return to their original s
