I waited to leave a review until I'd slept on this for a while. I've had it 3 months and I'm still thrilled!! It's so soft and comfortable and doesn't go flat or need to be readjusted. I love this!! I can't wait to get into bed at night now! It's the perfect amount of soft cozy plush happiness over my memory foam mattress, which was a little too firm for my poky joints. It's not so soft that you start getting a backache from sinking; just enough comfort topping to make you go aaahhhhhh. Really is like the best quality hotel mattress from an expensive hotel!

A few things to remember when ordering any down alternative or Down/Feather item: they flatten out from use. To restore that puffiness, heat and frequent shaking is all you need. This item is large, and while my dryer is large capacity, I decided to just turn on a portable oil-filled heat radiator in the room, and close the door. By the time the room reached 74 degrees the queen size topper was fully fluffed. Weekly fluffing can be done when sheets are changed. We normally sleep in a cold room, intentionally, so dryer fluffing is in the future. We have a Personal Comfort Airbed with a "non-memory foam" firm topper. This alternative down topper added just the extra comfort we needed to sleep comfortably. It is not going to act like 3" memory foam. So, even though it is fluffy, don't expect it to have the same comfort and support of memory foam (which comes with off gassing, and smell lasting months). But, If you have a firm mattress, this odorless topper will make it more comfortable. Ours arrived in a rolled, slightly compressed protective cover that was NOT shrink wrapped. That alarmed me a little, as I know that bed bugs and eggs die within 24-48 hours of being shrink wrapped (from suffocation). Seeing the top of the plastic cover open, was a concern. But, I carefully checked every inch and it looked sterile as they claim. Drying at low temp for 15 minutes also kills bed bugs, but I was determined to just see if it fluffed up in a warm room. I know that not everyone can, or wants to put these immediately in a dryer, so I tested the room heating method, and was pleased with the results. Just shaking by hand and leaving it in a cold room may not get it fully fluffed, that's not the fault of the manufacturer. Mine is now encased in an organic cotton mattress protector (purchased on Amazon), where it lives happily. Another cotton mattress protector encasing the entire 15" is on top of that, which keeps it from shifting on the bed. (So, I am not using the anchor straps.) Note: Only the top fabric with the jacquard print is 100% cotton. The underside of the protector, and the filling are labeled polyester. So if you flip this, it might make you warm or hot, especially in the summer if sleeping on the side where the anchors are attached. This product is exactly what I was hoping for, and meets the manufacturers product description; except for one thing. They show in the second photo, that the print top is "organic cotton". No where on the label does it mention the word "organic". So, either this is a typo on the website, or the manufacturer is not labeling it. Maybe they use the word "organic" differently? Anyway, it is exactly what we were looking for and we do recommend it. Read more
Mmmmkay....so the comfort, pain relief, and sleep quality are great. I gave this 4 stars overall simply because I do not believe it is 3in. Matter of fact, I know it's not because after unboxing and 30mins on a low-heat air fluff cycle in the dryer, it measures almost at 2 1/2in. Despite that, I'm pretty satisfied. I would say it could stand to be filled more and especially around edging...but I purchased this to top a new 10in memory foam mattress. It. Was. Killing. Me. The mattress IS flippable, but one side is TOO soft and the other TOO firm. Maybe the happy medium is to sleep INSIDE the mattress...and don't even get me started on the heat of memory foam. They honestly should market them as a "winter mattress." Online ordering is not for the faint of heart and it either takes great bravery or intense stupidity to buy one's mattress in that manner. Live and learn my friends, LIVE and LEARN. At any rate, this topper has cured most of my ails related to said mattress. My back feels better, I don't toss as much at night anymore and I wake up feeling more rested instead of wanting to put the alarm clock in the microwave for 2.5. This topper is comfortable and cool, it's breathable and seems to be constructed pretty well. The cotton outershell looks and feels nice. The corner straps are a true bonus. They're wide and go under the 10in mattress really great, there is no shifting of the topper. I've only owned it for a week so I can't really speak to it packing down or it wearing internally in one spot or another as of yet, and I hope to not have to. I wash my bedding weekly, as I did today, and I put this on an air fluff for 30mins while sheets washed. If it "had" packed down any, it was puffed back up when I put it back on bed...so unless that gets really extreme, I may never notice. As stated, my only negative is that I had wished for more fill but I'd say I'm rather happy with my purchase. I'm sleeping much harder and much better, I do know that much and THAT is exactly what I wanted to achieve. So this is it. This is what I've trained for, people...the Dream Olympics. I'm out here tryin' to bring home the gold for America! Read more
So I saw this same company makes a mattress topper that 2 inches thick and got tons of 5 star reviews. I decided to get this newer topper that is 3 inches thick, made by the same company. I don’t write many reviews so here goes. Even though when you take it out of the bag its still somewhat fluffy and a real 3 inches, I followed the instructions to put it in a tumble dryer on low heat dry as it came for 20 minutes. If you get it make sure you do this step…so after 20 minutes took it out of dryer and indeed it fluffed up even more. I had a much older topper that was flat and much thinner…I just put this on my queen size bed. It fit perfectly and then I layed down. Now granted I didnt sleep yet on it, but the feeling was indeed as some have reported on the 2 inch version like sleeping on a cloud…I cant imagine a better topper than this one…its well made, the straps were strong. Some have reported the straps broke or were shredded, mine were perfect…All I can say if your looking for a topper this 3 inch thick topper cannot be beat…so happy with the feel of it…hopefully I sleep well tonite.
