Silentnight Airflow King Mattress Topper – Mattress Enhancer Pad with 5cm Thick Cushioning, Airflow Technology to Reinvent Your Mattress and Elasticated Straps – King Size – 200 x 150 cm

Product Information

In this review, we take a closer look to see if the Silentnight Airmax Topper is a great addition to your mattress, why it's so popular and if it's really as good as people say. 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? To help keep Silentnight Airmax Topper securely fitted onto your mattress they have featured elastic straps which wrap around each corner of the mattress. These Silentnight elasticated straps will fit a mattress of up to 30 cm in depth. As most mattresses have a depth of 25cm the Silentnight Airmax Topper should do the job.

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.The team at Silentnight have engineered the Silentnight Airmax Topper to include a dual construction layer frame which allows for this breathability functionality. Included in the Silentnight Airmax Topper is a mesh sidewall to help heat escape from your body, yet also retain warmth during colder nights. Before heading into this Silentnight Airmax Topper review. Picture this - your mattress trial period has expired and it just doesn't offer the exact comfort you were once used to. As the top layer of your mattress takes the most wear and tear throughout its lifetime, a topper is a cost-effective option when looking to refresh your sleeping experience. SUPREME COMFORT: Breathes new life into your bed by adding an extra 8cm of cushioned comfort on top of your mattress. Although it’s made from 100% polyester, it’s actually made up of two layers – the top one being extra soft, while the core provides the firmness. So there’s no need to worry about the kind of sponginess that can leave you feeling suffocated and we found it’s particularly good if you’re prone to aches and pains. The elastic straps keep it secure on the bed and it’s nice and warm (a good job as you can’t use an electric blanket with it), although that can be a downside if you get clammy at night.

This aside, the Emma Flip Topper did add a good degree of comfort to a rather rigid and slightly bumpy mattress, so we have to give it credit for that. The only issue we had was that the topper we tested (a size double) didn’t quite cover the full surface area of our mattress. This doesn’t impact its comfort greatly, but it does slightly undermine the topper’s edge support.Filling is the next most important thing to think about, and there are quite a few options out there to choose from:

Some toppers, including the Panda topper and John Lewis Soft Touch options featured below, come with corner straps that help hold them in place on the mattress. If you’re concerned about your topper slipping about (which can be a common problem), look out for one with these straps. Silk: Another luxury option, silk is super smooth, soft and hypoallergenic. It’s a delicate material though, so it’ll require care when it comes to washing.

BREATHABLE: Experience unparalleled breathability with Airmax technology for a comfortably refreshing night's sleep.

Let's get straight into the Silentnight Airmax Mattress Topper review. If you in a rush you can find the STATISTICS AT THE END. Topper Construction Synthetic: For the most part, synthetic is a popular budget option: microfibre and hollowfibre toppers can be a comfortable, affordable and vegan-friendly alternative to wool and down. They’re also relatively easy to wash and dry. What else should I consider? The Silentnight Airmax Topper as its name suggests is a revolutionary topper geared at providing the most optimal sleeping climate with a temperature-regulating function. It is designed to increase airflow and allow for extra breathability.

A mattress topper can be an affordable sleep solution in a number of instances. If your mattress is getting a bit old and worn, or it just feels too firm, a topper can provide a comfort layer to extend its life. It’s also a good way of protecting a new mattress from wear and tear, though we also recommend buying a mattress protector.
