By now, I’m sure you’re all aware of the latest craze sweeping across the sleeping nation which is “The Memory Foam Mattress”. With its ability to conform to your body shape and size for maximum comfort while you sleep, and its temperature-sensitive technology to cool you down when you’re hot and keep you warm in the winter months, it’s definitely a star buy! “It’s too expensive” I hear you say! Yes undoubtedly the memory foam mattress is not a cheap option when it comes to buying a new mattress and opinions on the product differ as to whether it is worth it or not so I am giving it to you… If you could have the same comfort and temperature-sensitive technology and still have the density of foam between your sheets, then read on because I’m about to reveal how you can get all of this at a fraction of the cost.
Viscoelastic mattress toppers! Yes you heard me, a topper! These ultra-comfortable and affordable sleeping genius pieces are truly the next best thing. While still offering all of the above memory foam mattress qualities, these toppers are priced at a mere fraction of the cost. They come in different thicknesses ranging from 1 inch to 4 inches and literally form a layer of memory foam between the sheets. Placing one of these toppers on your current mattress, adding your sheet on top as usual, will give you the same benefits and in my experience you won’t notice the difference. So what type of bed will these top pads work on? Well, you’ll be able to buy a memory foam top pad for just about any size bed you have.
As long as your mattress isn’t damaged, so old it has the effect of a sagging hammock, the springs don’t puncture the mattress, or it’s not so soft that it has no support. If your mattress is badly out of date and needs to be replaced, then a mattress topper will not do the trick and it really is time to invest in a new mattress. However, this doesn’t mean you have to shell out hundreds of dollars for a memory foam mattress. Buy a standard average mattress and top it with a memory foam top pad! Easy! All other issues like a too firm mattress that has little to no comfort or a soft mattress with no support, forget about buying a new mattress and start looking for a mattress topper!
They will add support, comfort and reduce pressure points, aches and pains. As you do when you share ways with your money on any product, be sure to shop around and talk to the experts. Usually, if the price seems too good to be true, it probably is! Some manufacturers are trying to reduce the cost of this expensive foam by using “fillers” to increase density! This is not good, it will cause your foam to collapse and leave you back where you started. plus you don’t get what you pay for. There are many reviews on these mattresses and mattress toppers from real people who have bought them all over the net, some good, some bad, but like I said, it depends on the manufacturer. Companies like “Tempur” specialized in this field will guarantee the quality of their mattress toppers.
BUT… There are other nameless brands that sell these products while maintaining the same quality and standards that you, the customer, deserve. So… Shop around, read reviews and really do your research, they are worth it, so by paying a little more or going to a “name brand” manufacturer you can be sure you won’t be scammed out of your hard earned money. . Also, many of these mattress providers will offer some type of warranty or guarantee! Seeing that you can’t try them on until you get them home and having the peace of mind that if it’s not for you, you can return it right away is an added bonus! I mean you wouldn’t buy a new fridge freezer if it didn’t come with a warranty, right? So there it is. Topper pads, who would have thought that something so simple and cost-effective could really change the way you sleep for many years to come!
