Product Information

Electric blankets are not to be used in conjunction with the following: Latex Toppers, Memory Foam Toppers or Foam products. Though we’ve called this a “cooling mattress topper”, no topper will work to actively cool you down throughout the night. But as silk can help to regulate body temperature, it’s a better option than memory foam for those who get too hot during the night. We like the fact that this topper also has an added bottom chamber that’s filled with a generous layer of gently supportive microfibre – the upshot of which is that it’s much comfier than many of the thinner pure silk toppers available. The elastic straps keep it firmly in place, too. And as you are much less likely to perspire when sleeping on silk, the silk filling remains free from dust mites – great for allergy sufferers, who will also be pleased to learn that silk is naturally hypoallergenic. Side sleepers could benefit as a memory foam topper can provide extra cushioning for the hips and knees. Studies✓ have hypothesised that side sleeping may be linked to shoulder pain, so memory foam could also offer pressure-relief for this area.

Sleeping position: The position in which you sleep is crucial as it will determine which body parts press into the mattress, where pressure may build up, and ultimately how optimally the spine is aligned. Sleeping position and mattress topper firmness should be considered together. The removable bamboo cover is soft and breathable, antibacterial, hypoallergenic and sustainably and organically grown. It is also removable and washable. In addition, there is an anti-slip layer of dotted silicon on the bottom of this topper, and elastic straps are on each corner to allow easy attachment to your mattress.It’s important to bear in mind that a topper isn’t a fix-all solution. If a mattress is on its last legs and is starting to sag, a topper won’t do you any favours. Similarly if your mattress feels too soft, plonking a mattress topper down on it will likely only make it softer. What different fillings should I look out for? Some models retain heat (some have special features for cooling such as gel and graphite infusions), low rebound (more likely to sink and sag), changing position may be difficult A bed that you can’t wait to get into. No more jagged spring poking through, no more lumps that seem to follow you around the bed. It is an absolute dream to sleep on (Pun completely intended). As I’m sure you know mattress toppers are an extra layer of padding you put on top of your bed to make it more comfortable.

The popularity of memory foam primarily comes down to its unique contouring features and the ability to mould to a person’s shape using their body heat. It is also known for providing good pressure relief and support. When used in mattresses, we have seen various memory foam modifications over the years in attempts to improve the material. Nowadays, it’s common to find open-cell or gel-infused memory foam, which can help cool the mattress down, ensuring a more comfortable night’s sleep.

If you are looking for a luxury memory foam topper to supplement your mattress, the Octaspring topper from Dormeo may be worth considering. This topper has been approved by third-party publications and has also been well received by customers. Lighter individuals or children tend to feel the firmness of a mattress more than heavier people. For this reason, a soft memory foam topper could be beneficial as it provides a cushioning feeling and could balance out any uncomfortable firmness from the mattress.Foam: For those who like a lot of comfort and cushioning, adding an extra layer of memory foam could be ideal. However, as foam is known for heat retention, adding a topper to a memory foam mattress may not be ideal for hot sleepers.

Latex: These mattress types are known for being a more organic option as natural latex is derived from the sap of rubber trees. Latex mattresses are known for their elasticity and support. A memory foam topper could add an extra layer of comfort and cushioning, but may take away some breathability. Bamboo: As well as being beneficial for cooling, bamboo is said to have naturally hypoallergenic and antibacterial properties which derive from the plant. Whilst, depending of course, on the cause, some musculoskeletal pain may be more difficult to treat and manage than others.
