Mattress toppers

A mattress topper is an extra layer of cushioning material placed on top of a mattress to enhance comfort, support, and overall sleep quality. It’s typically removable and sits beneath your fitted sheet.

Key features:

Comfort adjustment: Can make a mattress feel softer or firmer depending on the material.

Pressure relief: Helps reduce pressure on joints, especially for side sleepers.

Temperature control: Some toppers are designed to stay cool (e.g., gel-infused or breathable materials).

Mattress protection: Adds a layer that can extend the life of your mattress.

Common materials:

Memory foam: Contours to the body for support and pressure relief.

Latex: More responsive and breathable than memory foam.

Feather/down: Soft and plush, but less supportive.

Polyfoam: Lightweight and budget-friendly.

Typical thickness:

Ranges from about 2 to 4 inches, depending on how much cushioning or support is needed.

In short, a mattress topper is a simple way to upgrade comfort without replacing the entire mattress.
