LINENSPA Memory Foam Mattress Topper - 2 Inch Gel Infused Memory Foam - Plush Feel - Cooling and

I once bought a used twin size innerspring mattress on Craigslist for $100 and used that to replace the flimsy mattress that was on a hospital bed. It was comfortable. I would throw myself onto the mattress (sitting down position) and I would sleep comfortably and very well each night. But after 8-9 years, I started having severe back problems. I then threw away the mattress and the hospital bed. I then slept on the floor on a 3' x 6' yoga mat for a while. Then I bought a tall, metal, folding bed frame and I put the yoga mat on top of that. I thought the yoga mat was a good idea because it was near impossible to find any innerspring mattresses, and the ones that were in my price range looked like they would be terrible and bad for my back. I also did not have any confidence in hybrid mattresses and thought they would not offer enough support for my back. So even though the yoga mat was hard and uncomfortable, I thought that it was doable. I thought that I could also do some yoga mat exercises in bed. But I eventually gave up on the yoga mat exercises in bed and now I only do yoga mat exercises on a different yoga mat on the floor during the day. Eventually, I did get a twin size hybrid mattress, but there were some problems with it. One, it felt too soft and was a bit uncomfortable. And the edges did not have any support, despite having firmer foam in that area, so anytime I sat on the edge, I would slide right off. Also the thick hybrid mattress, despite being the thinnest one available made my bed too high. So I sold the mattress a day later and went back to using the yoga mat on the bed frame. But it oftentimes was a slow and painful process getting in and out of bed because of back and body aches. Lying on my side was painful on my left shoulder because I damaged my collarbone around 9 years ago. And sometimes, not often, my back would go out of alignment. So for a long time, I wondered what I should do. Should I get rid of the bed frame and get a shorter one and then get the twin size hybrid again? But I didn't want to do that. Should I get a down mattress topper? Should I get one of those mattress toppers that are mostly just cheap foam with only a one inch layer of memory foam on top? Or should I get a mattress topper that is 100% memory foam, like this one? Also, how thick should I get it? I never trusted memory foam. I felt like it would be a weird feeling having my body parts sink into the foam like that. But I decided to give it a try and I ordered a 3" memory foam mattress topper for $70 and it's been worth it. The sinking feeling doesn't bother me at all. In fact, it is a good thing because it puts my body in a more natural position instead of putting pressure on a lot of body parts. It's 100% comfortable getting in and out of bed now. I can now lie on my left side without my shoulder hurting. I can now sleep on my back, side, or stomach comfortable. I sleep better. I haven't had any back problems, and my back is recovering from my previous misalignment fast. And I haven't had any problems with heat retention in the mattress topper and my apartment temperature is usually 82 F in the winter time. So overall, very happy. I am tempted to believe that this memory foam topper on wooden planks would be better than a hybrid mattress because hybrid mattresses consist of a lot of cheap layers of foam that wear out fast and are just unnecessary fluff, whereas the memory foam is all one really needs I think. Also, my hybrid mattress I bought weighed like 250 lbs (exaggerating), but the memory foam topper and the yoga mat I am using underneath it (instead of wood planks) is so light and easy to move. I like that. I hate lifting or dragging around really heavy mattresses when I have a bad back from a roofing accident that I was in. And now I don't need to buy a shorter bed frame as the mattress topper didn't add a lot of height. UPDATE: It's been 10 days and I've been in pure heaven each and every day. I don't think I will ever have back problems again and even if I get back problems they will probably be solved as soon as I sleep on this memory foam mattress topper. UPDATE: It's been almost half a year, and I never slept on anything so comfortable in my life. It's so great. I want to use this for the rest of my life. I like it better than actual mattresses.

Very comfortable topper. I had this (2 inch gel) on my main queen size bed, tried a 3 Inch and 4 inch, and went back to another 2 inch gel infused cooling topper for my 2nd home. I am purchasing a 3rd topper for a guest bedroom. After many trial and disappointments with different mattresses and toppers we have found that a medium firm mattress with this memory foam topper provides the best support and keeps us comfortable throughout the night. We rarely wake up with back pain. It took a couple days for the factory smell to dissipate but it wasn’t unbearable. Read more

This is what we have been looking for. My wife and I purchased a new mattress recently, which proved more firm than medium firm, so we needed something soft for a topper. As we are both side sleepers I opted for the three inch thickness. She sleeps well and we fall asleep quickly. Children and pets have a more difficult time waking us up, now. lol The material is cooling gel foam, of good quality, nice and thick. You may wipe it down, if needed for spills, but washing in a machine is out. We put a mattress topper cover over it to help protect it. It swelled quickly to the size of a queen sized mattress. It offers a gentle support, soft and forms around you without making you feel as though you were wallowing in the foam or struggling to get up and out of bed. Read more

Ladies and Gentlemen, LEND ME YOUR EARS. I do NOT want to sell you this product. I have some basic advice that can make it work like a dream. Sellers are motivated by profits so they're never going to tell you the key factor that determines whether this item is a good fit for you. The short version goes like this; If your mattress is saggy, worn, with dead springs then this topper WILL NOT HELP, it will MAKE THINGS WORSE! If you have a firm mattress and are looking for something to add support, it is a DREAM. I began this process with a worn out mattress. So I will share what happened below. At first, I was deeply disappointed to the point of anger. I wanted a FIRM mattress topper to make up for a sagging mattress. I also sleep hot and was counting on the "cooling gel" (or however they market this as reducing heat). Without a cover it's an insulator. As soon as I let it rise and air out, I installed it under a cotton sheet. I laid on the topper and it really felt like a pleasant cloud and it was cool. It was not the firm sensation I sought but I liked it. 15 minutes later and I noticed I was sinking deeper into the mattress than before. Then coolness rapidly turned into a heat trap! It must have similar material as wet suits as my body heat and moisture began to heat the material. Now, I was furious. As I became increasingly frustrated my body got warmer and warmer. All I could think about was "the reviews MUST have been bots!" I also dreaded the hassle of returning it due to the way it's packed etc. I spent hours the next day after a poor night's sleep looking for a Queen mattress under $350 that was extra firm but I didn't trust any of the reviews. I did remember reading one 5-Star review for this product (here) that I believe is up near the top in rankings due to its helpfulness. The person explains this exact point I'm trying to make very clearly. I'm trying drill this point home so you don't make the mistake I made. At one point I remembered that there was firmer queen mattress in my guest room. So I swapped the mattresses and placed the topper. Thats when my frustrations made a full 180°. It may be essential for one to purchase a special cover for this pad that provides a layer for air exchange so that it cools. In my case, a fine sheepskin blanket provided satisfactory airflow to negate the heating effect produced when the body's warmth is trapped in this material. I'm writing the review from the bed. It's ridiculously comfortable. I don't want to get up. Yet, please folks, understand it WILL NOT work to transform a soft mattress into a firm one. Don't make that mistake or you'll be so frustrated you won't have the energy to leave a negative review. You'll make your situation much worse! You'll also miss out on the chance to experience the effect when this product does work which is deserving of all the superlatives in the reviews. I didn't try this but the 3" is dense enough I suspect that placing it atop the box spring would have been better than trying to make it work in with my old worn out mattress. If you can afford to get a very basic firm queen mattress or swap one from your home then this can work. If not, just find a new mattress. There's no method I'm aware of to ressurect a bed where the springs are toast. I'm tall, muscular and heavy as lead. I have a fast metabolism and exercise often. I need a firm and supportive bed that's cool. If one takes a moment to consider that we sleep roughly half our lives, and that so much of our health is contingent on the quality of sleep we get, this is one of the few things money can buy to make a meaningful difference in your quality of life. Not necessarily "this" exact product. I'm sure there are products with far better design and materials where the effect ultimately supports multiple body frames perfectly. Perhaps there is a mattress topper that will work on a flimsy mattress just NOT this one. Yet the potential options I've found are expensive. I'm taking the time to write this to potentially save YOU time and frustration. I'll circle around to the top. I honestly think a piece of plywood would suffice over putting this on a saggy mattress. It DOES add additional support to the contours of the body IF you have a firm underlying foundation. Read more
