Memory Foam Mattress Topper with Cover

I waited until I had slept on this topper for a bit before posting a review.First, it was and still is a little over 4 inches thick. I measured with a ruler when I first got it two months ago and again today.It is VERY comfortable! It is on the soft side, but not too soft for me because my firm mattress is beneath it. I had read in another review that if you're a large person, you may still have some pressure points, and though I am definitely a large person, I have no problems with this. The only issue I have is that it takes some finagling to figure out the most comfortable way to sit on it if you, like I, do a lot of things on your bed. I live in a studio apartment, so my bed is not just my bed -- it's also my desk and my dining table and my sofa.The most important part, though, is that my back pain is gone. I had another topper, a 2-inch gel/foam thing, that rid me of my lower back pain for a while, but after five months I started hurting again. I'm thinking this one might do better. It just feels more durable than the other one did. Well worth the price, imo. Someday I'll spend $1,000 on a bed, but until I at a point to do that, this topper is more than adequate.UPDATED: I got this topper 15 months ago. It’s still comfy, hasn’t flattened and have given me a lot of extra time with my crappy old mattress. Don’t plan on buying another topper or mattress for quite a while yet.UPDATED AGAIN: It’s been almost 2 years at this point, & this topper has give my crappy IKEA mattress a lot of extra life. Still super comfy, still no back pain. VERY swell worth it.

3 weeks in and I'm impressed with topGel layer's coushiomed spftness and the firmer foam layer underneath that to ensure you're not sleeping in jello but in a cloud that has a firm base layer to hold you confidently and comfortably, in addition to the blue top soft sleeping layer. It's never hot to sleep on, always cool and comfortable. Just the right amount of cosseting my 185lb 6'tall man body without feeling too soft to where my back and joints would hurt. It really does support all the pressure points of the body that come into contact with the gel foam, and provides an extremely comfortable amount of support for each body part while not being too firm andUncomfortably hard, and alsoIt provides a soft body caressing cloud to get an amazing nights sleep on.I placed mine on top of my 15yr old queen firm mattress and base and it's like a new bed was delivered. My bed was hard to the point that my back and neck would ache after sleeping on it for more than 6-7 hours. I now float to sleep on this same bed, but with the addition of the foam topper it has completely changed the comfort level of the bed to something thatI look forward to lying on, and I don't wake up with aches in my back and shoulders and neck from tossing and turning and trying to find a comfortable spot to get some sleep on the mattress before I bought the foam topper.It has made my bed perfect, and I don't move around during the night to find more comfortable spots because the foam caresses my body gently and allows me to forget my daily worries and also my sleep worries. It has renewed my bed and renewed my sleeping and renewed my overall body health and comfort, resulting in me being refreshed and ready to take on whatever the world throws at me after sleeping and resting perfectly.Thank you for creating this wonderful addition to my bed, sleep, and enhancing my life through much better rest every night.

I was a little concerned with the topper when I got it. I'm using it on a queen size bed at a relative's house. That bed, on its own, is terrible. Like sleeping on gravel that isn't evenly distributed.I got so used to sleeping on memory foam mattresses (Tempur Pedic), that the thought of sleeping on this bed as it was actually frightened me. So I got this. I didn't have a lot in the budget. But I knew I wanted something better than the 3" memory foam mattresses. The 4" is nice since it has the "support layer". That really helps.The concern I had was that, when I unboxed it, there were 2-3 *huge* lumps going across the topper, from where it was folded in shipping. I guess I could've unzipped the mattress cover and tried to fix it manually, but I didn't want to risk not being able to get the cover back on, so I left it. I slept on the couch for a few days to let it fully expand, and see if the lumps went away. They didn't. But they were softer, so I tried it out. It felt good enough to sleep on, so I tried it that night.It literally changed the entire feel of the bed. I'm a pretty big guy (250lbs). My relative, who normally sleeps in a similar bed tried it out. She's bigger than I am. And she loved the bed as well.You get the feeling that it "sleeps hot" if you wear socks to bed. I had that feeling too. But if you take off the socks, it sleeps *really* cool. It's not as soft as my tempur pedic bed, but it's not too firm by any means. All in all, this is a really great topper. Only took off one star for the initial lumpiness. The good news is that it goes away after a few days.
