Thank you for using Neighbourly
The Neighbourly team has been diving into a big question: should our curiosity take us up into space or down into the ocean?
It’s wild to think that more people have walked on the Moon than have reached the deepest point of the sea. Why is that?

Here’s a fun one — the same material NASA created to cushion astronauts in space is now helping Kiwis get their best sleep ever.
It’s called Tempur, and it’s not your average mattress. The TEMPUR® material gently adapts to your body, easing pressure points and giving you that “floating on air” kind of comfort.
We’ve put together a simple guide to help you find the perfect one for your sleep style. Check them out here: beds4u.co.nz...
So if you’ve been mattress-hunting, maybe it’s time to check out the brand that started in space. Pop into your nearest Beds4U store and feel the Tempur difference for yourself — your back (and your dreams) will thank you.
