A mattress topper can definitely help if you want to make your existing quality mattress even more comfortable. However, a mattress topper definitely cannot mitigate the discomfort of an old saggy mattress full of lumps. It is because a mattress topper is adaptable, meaning it will adapt to the spots where the old mattress sags. That means a mattress topper will cushion its defects, meaning you not only failed to fix your old mattress, but also ruined your new mattress topper.
In which cases can a mattress topper help?
1. No pull-out couch is as comfortable as a real mattress. In such a situation, buying a mattress topper is advised – it will increase comfort and elevate you by 5-6 centimetres, which is the usual mattress height.
2. Sometimes we hastily buy a new mattress which is actually not suitable for us. A mattress topper is an ideal situation in case you want to increase the comfort of your existing mattress. Your body needs the hard surface for proper support, while a soft mattress topper is ideal for relieving pressure from your shoulders, knees and hips. Furthermore, the elastic properties of a mattress topper will extend the lifespan of the mattress and enable you to enjoy a quality sleep for longer.
3. People who travel a lot and often feel pain in their shoulders, hips or knees should have a quality sleep wherever they are. You can easily take a mattress topper with you, you only have to roll it and put it in a vacuum bag.
4. No matter how hard you are trying, bed hygiene cannot be maintained only by washing and replacing the sheets. You probably did not know, but an adult loses up to a litre of body fluids during the night on average. Sweat, saliva and mucus do not just stay on the pyjamas or bed sheets, but penetrate the mattress, ruining it gradually. Unfortunately, you cannot put a mattress in a washing machine, and manual washing and drying would take ages, therefore it is explicitly not recommended. A mattress topper forms an effective barrier between your body fluids and the mattress.
5. Numerous experts claim that around 12 million people have asthma issues. If coughing and suffocating causes disturbs your sleep as well, and you continue to sleep on a mattress full of dust, sweat and dust mites, we recommend you to buy a mattress topper that will protect your mattress from allergens.
