Tempflow Selene

The Selene by Tempflow is a plush, nine-inch memory foam mattress. It’s supported by a True Platform Foundation. If you are looking for a firmer mattress, I suggest the Tempflow Eclipse.

The Tempflow Selene uses Tempflow's patented Airflow Transfer System, which is designed to reduce heat accumulation and make the mattress breathable. It does this through several small holes in the surface that connect with channels below, allowing the air to flow into and out of the mattress.

The Selene also features 1" of Biogreenmemory foam, softer SD™ ventilated memory foam, and 2" of SD-Firm Biogreen memory foam (SD means "superior density"). beneath these is a firm, high density, polyurethane, airflow channel layer.

This mattress is covered with stretch-knit Kool-Flow Bamboo fabric. Under this is a fire sock made of sustainable materals. Tempflow states that their Biogreen memory foam has been independently lab tested and found to be free of V.O.C. (Volatile Organic Compounds) out-gas ratings. Additionally, they list that their foam as free from dangerous chemicals like Bromine, PBDE, TDI, and Boric Acid.

On the Tempflow mattress recommendation chart, the Selene composition of soft materials over the thicker and firmer SD Biogreen surface gives a dimension of comfort, with optimal support. They further state that the stiffer base will work well for heavier individuals, back sleepers, and most back pain sufferers.

My husband has chronic back problems and was always restless due to pressure points when he tried to sleep. Since purchasing the Tempflow he is able to sleep comfortably through the night and actually wakes up refreshed. (as do I!)

We purchased the mattress in November of 2009 and it is still as comfortable as the first night we slept on it.

The mattress has a level of firmness while contouring to your body and providing support to all areas.

Thought not cheap, this product is well worth it. It surpasses Tempur-pedic because of it 's patented design that allows the passive diffusion of heat out of the mattress. The build up of heat was often mentioned as a negative feature in the Tempur-pedic design. Since we spend much time in bed, it fulfills all our needs.

Mattress Durability: up

We have only had for 2 weeks so it is hard so it is hard to comment on this aspect. However it comes with a 40 year warranty.

My GF has chronic Lyme disease, which makes it very hard to get a good night sleep due to joint pain. The bed enables her to get a good night sleep now, something she has not experienced since the onset of the disease over a year ago.

"I placed my order for the TempFlow Selene Queen 9" mattress with Relief Mart, and received it in less than ten days. Relief Mart was also very helpful in informing me which was the best mattress for me, even when I had been planning to buy a more expensive one, for which I am very thankful. My wife (who is seven months pregnant) and I have been enjoying this mattress for over a week now and we love it. It took me about two or three nights to get used to it but now I'm sleeping great. I had read a lot of negative reviews about the memory foam mattress being too hot and the terrible smell, and this mattress was neither.

We have had our mattress for six months.  Relief Mart's customer service is phenomenal and the TempFlow mattress is well worth the money. The customer service portion of shipping this mattress from southern CA to northern CA is also simple and easy.  They require a phone consult to decide which mattress to buy, and they quickly called me after I left a message.  I'm 5'9" at 135 lb and my partner is 6'2" at 220 lb.  We're both side sleepers and I like a firm mattress with a pillow-top.  Jim thought the Selene model was probably going to be too firm for me but a decent compromise given that my partner is quite a bit heavier than me.  I opted for the Selene.  Within one week, my chronic and stiff lower back and hip pains were gone.   Towards the end of the three month trial period (which is longer than most mattress trials), I decided the mattress was indeed too firm so I called Relief Mart.  I left a message and within one day, I spoke to Rick, who said the next softer model would probably be too soft for both my partner and me; he instead advised that we order an extra layer of the green layer.  I was skeptical, and he assured me that if it didn't work out, he would assist with an exchange, even though it would have passed the three month trial period by that time.  For a marginal price, it was purchased and shipped.  The green layer stays perfectly fitted to our mattress, thanks to the material textures and the tight bamboo cover.  Now we have our perfect bed,  and we believe it will last for decades.  Somehow it is the perfect density and contours to my body, no matter whether I sleep on my side, back, or stomach.  My partner also loves it even more with the extra green layer.   Please support this amazing company by buying your all American-made dream bed from Relief Mart.  It's worth every penny.  I travel for work and even my favorite hotel beds do not measure up to my TempFlow bed.  To help break it in, follow their directions to rotate the mattress once/month for six months, then every six months after that.

Sleep like a baby every night.

I've only had the mattress for six months but suspect it will last a long time, given that it seems to readjust to neutral every day.

Mattress Support: up

I bought an extra layer of the green layer because I wanted the firmness of the Selene model with a little extra cushioning. Feels like I'm snugly enveloped in one of those egg carton cushions, but with the added bonus of contoured fitting and equal weight distribution from a well supported mattress.

Wonderful mattress. I've slept on temperpedics, feathertops, and sleep numbers during my work travels. The Tempflow is better than all of those.

Quality: up

The mattress looks a bit makeshift when you take off the bamboo mattress cover, but that's probably because each mattress is put together by hand. You'll never see that unless you take off the mattress cover for cleaning anyway. Advice: buy a second mattress cover that can be replaced as needed so you don't have to fuss with the bamboo cover. All layers stay perfectly in place.

I researched mattresses online for over a month and read countless reviews and commentary. In that process, I learned that one of the key issues related to memory foam mattresses is the heat factor. The Tempflo airflow technology is what finally sold us on this great mattress. It was a major concern because (a) we sleep upstairs which is normally hotter than the main floor, and (b) my husband sleeps "hot," and we didn't want something that would make that worse. We've slept on the Selene now for 7 months through the summer and late fall and we have not felt any heat build up from the mattress at all. It's a great mattress and we recommend it highly. Also the Relief Mart contact person we worked with was friendly, courteous, and most helpful in the selection and ordering process.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and this wonderful Selene mattress has helped remove the pressure point pain I had on my old mattress. I wake fully rested from a good night's sleep.

My husband and I both have back problems and our old mattress left us feeling like a truck had hit us after we awoke. A night's sleep on the Selene relieves our back pain and enables us to function much better in the morning.

As 73 year olds, my husband and I have owned many mattresses from waterbeds to firm innersprings and foam. The Tempflo Selene is unquestionably the best mattress we've ever slept on.
