Mattress Toppers

[bucketmouth64]

Wondering if any of you use a memory foam mattress topper on your bed? Thinking of buying one and doing some research. What thickness have you found to be ideal?

I bought a 2" to put on top of the standard 4" that came in the wheel house. It helps some, would go thicker next time

Maybe ok in a fish house because they are extremely hot. I wouldn't recommend it to cure a mattress issue at home...

They are worthless.We got one and its ??Worthless.We also bought the Mattress, 2 years later its like a hammock!! We didnt buy the sleepnumber cause I read of mold problems.I'd rather clean mold than have a costly mattress thats >>Worthless!! JUNK! The topper we bought for a standard mattress didnt do nuthing to improve it!

We have a 4" topper at home and it's great, IMO. The mattress underneath is shot, by and large, but that topper gave it new life for a few years and counting now...

I use to work in the furniture world for 7 years and dealt with mattresses and some of the toppers you could buy.

From my experience most toppers are only as good as the mattress they are on. If you have a old beat up mattress or a low quality piece of junk to start with a topper or pad can only do so much.

Then there comes personal preference. The memory foam will give you a pretty distinct feel. Some like it, some hate it. They do also hold some body heat so thats worth noting. 2 people can lay on the same bed and its junk to one person and a god send to the other. Only way to know is to try them out.

In the end you are better off with a quality mattress to start with. If you want the memory foam feel but don't want to purchase a full memory foam mattress the perhaps a quality traditional mattress with a memory foam topper will be a better fit to your budget.

I have a 4" on my bed and its ok but I got it free too help a bad mattress. Don't do that. Get a new mattress you like!

We are looking for the cabin. One problem is sheets/mattress pad. Cabin sheets are somewhat older and might not fit. Mattress is good quality but we are getting old.

We bought the memory foam mattress,Then had to buy the deep sheet sets and pad.The 3?4? inch memory foam topper on a standard queen mattress we also had to replace the sheets and pad to the deeper sets.Its a bummer to wake up middle of a deep sleep and find the sheets and pad are 1/2 pulled down.Irritating! at least.Our 2 year old memory foam mattress just went in the camper and it was replaced with a standard matt/box spring 3 days ago! I dont think it will last long in the camper!!
