Do I need a mattress or a topper?

This question is asked many times and we hope that this short article will help to answer your questions regarding toppers vs. mattresses.

Toppers can be used to perk up even the most distressed mattress, if you old mattress has lost its shape and is feeling worn out, a topper placed on the mattress will give it a new lease of life.

It’s important to remember that the topper will raise the height of you mattress, if you old mattress is ten inches thick, a topper will add three more inches in height to the mattress and then it might be hard to find fitted sheets that will fit on a mattress with a topper on it as the height will now be thirteen inches.

It’s worth doing some homework before a purchase of a topper, we have had cases where someone has a mattress that was a expensive purchase but has lost its support and the customer did not want to dispose of the old mattress and purchase a new one as it was a lot of money to throw away, so they purchased a topper instead. After a few months sleeping on the topper and liking the memory foam a mattress was purchased, so it’s always worth doing a bit of research before purchase.
