Memory Foam Tips

    Memory Foam Topper

    So you have seen and heard all the great things about the use of memory foam toppers and how they can benefit anyone and everyone, you are now thinking that it is time to invest in one for yourself, great thinking.

    You are certainly not alone, as everyday the sales of memory foam toppers are rising and the marketplace is booming with memory foam toppers so you will not be short on finding one. However, before you buy make sure you know your memory foam topper.

    With everyone talking about memory foam toppers, you have also probably heard the word 'density' being used over and over again, in short density is used to determine the weight of the foam.

    The most common memory foam toppers for consumers are ones that are 2 - 3" in thickness. The confusion may be is that there are many types of density available and some consumers say that the lower the density, the lower the quality.

    Of course, the medium and higher density memory foam toppers will be the best choice for support and comfort. As memory foam toppers are providing an extra layer to your mattress then choosing a medium density should be adequate.

    If you want to get the most out of your memory foam topper then make sure you are considering the density and the thickness.

    As long as you know your memory foam topper and purchase one from a well known brand name, you can guarantee that extra layer of luxury.

5 out of 5 stars Perfect   August 15, 2009
Nameless Faceless User (Holbrook, NY USA)

My old mattress was hard and lumpy. My back was killing me. Faced with disposing of the old mattress and replacing it with a pillow-top style for hundreds of dollars and hours of labor or buying a piece of foam to put on top for the fraction of the price, I went this route.

The 1.5 inch thickness allowed me to tuck it under my fitted sheet. Although these foam toppers can be many times thicker, I have never felt like it was bottoming out. This is the perfect thickness. As soon as I tried it out, my eyes closed and I felt so relaxed. Unlike an ordinary mattress, my weight is more evenly distributed. I don't feel pressure points and flat spots. My back felt better after only one night. As far as comparing memory foam to a pillow top mattress, it's a tough call. Pillow top is a bit more firm.

Other foam products have received negative reviews for the odor. I suppose any new foam product will have a slight odor to it. This one had a "new car" type of smell to it and the manufacturer says it will dissipate in a few days - but, I don't find it all that bad.

For the price, this can be replaced every few years if it becomes stained or ripped.



5 out of 5 stars Fantastic 1 1/2" Aerus mattress topper   January 16, 2009

This was my first purchase from Amazon.com and I am very pleased. I purchased two queen size 1 1/2" Aerus mattress toppers for our guest rooms. The price was extremely reasonable and the shipping was free. Each guest mattress is firm and older but still in good condition. The memory foam was cut true to size and completely covered each mattress. I slept on one to try it out. The topper has greatly improved the quality of my sleep on this older mattress. It conformed to my body's shape giving wonderful soft feeling comfort and support and sprang back to its original shape when I got up. It was like a new mattress. Our guests may never want to go home!

I bought this 1.5 inch pad because my mattress (5 years old) which I bought when I moved here but wasn't sure how long I would stay, is not super-great. I wanted a somewhat softer surface. Since I live in "rural" Alaska, a new mattress was $$$$$ so I thought I'd get a pad w/ free shipping and see if it helped. I also wanted a pad that would fit under my current mattress pad and sheets. My choice was limited by what would free-ship to Alaska (more restricted than free-shipping to the lower 48.

When I received this 1 1/2 inch pad, I was taken aback - it was wound up in a package so tightly some parts were compressed to less than half an inch. It had creases and seams in it from the folding and rolling. I unrolled it (with some effort since it had to be unpeeled carefully as it was so compressed that parts were sticking to each other).

So I mentally composed my letter complaining about it, believing that there was no way on Earth that it could uncompress or that those seams would disappear, and left it alone. Three hours later I came back and it had totally uncompressed and relaxed! Every part was 1 1/2 inch as advertised and there were no visible seams! It was a miracle!

I ended up with a 1 1/2 inch pad, perfectly fitted to my Queen size mattress. It is easily compressed but recovers 100%. It does compress easily (but recovers). I "hit bottom" on it when sitting up in bed or lying on my side when my hip "hits bottom". But it does provide more cushion so my shoulder, and probably hips but to a lesser extent, are more cushioned. I seem to be sleeping more restfully since it is more comfy when I toss and turn.

So - not perfect, but reminiscent of "padded" mattresses - and worth it for the price for me (including free shipping to "rural" Alaska). So I give it 4 stars because based on the price etc. I really didn't expect more. It didn't quote a foam rating so maybe those who can get better values shipped to other states might fare better, but this works as a mattress pad to enhance my current mattress.

Oh - and it did have a slight "chemical smell" like a household cleaner when first unwrapped. It is slowly disappearing (I have to bury my nose in it to smell it after the first few days).

I purchased the foam topper in hopes to alleviate lower back pains I developed. After using the foam topper for several months, my back pain actually got worse. I observed that my lower back pain becomes worse when I sleep on my back vs. on my side using this topper.

At first, I thought its just me. And that I should not expect a miracle from this product. However, the big kicker was...my wife began to develop lower back and buttocks strain and pain during these several months of use. We've removed the topper and both of us made small recoveries in lower back pain.

I cannot say that it won't work for those potential buyers reading this now, but I just had to share our experience this product.

I am not sure if the thicker foam toppers would be better, but if I had to make a choice, I might just go all out and go for one of those actual tempurpedic mattresses instead. Hope it helps.

I bought this topper to make the bed in our travel camper more comfortable without spending the money to replace the mattress all together. It worked very well. My husband said that the difference was night and day. He slept better and woke up with less stiffness than before. I initially agreed with him but I have a very bad back (two surgeries and no improvement) and it still left me stiff after sleeping on it for about eight hours. It is still a big improvement to me because I couldn't even sleep on the mattress before. In summary for most people I think this will do the job it is supposed to do and do it well.
