If you want to add comfort or support to your mattress, or you want to help make the mattress last longer, buying a mattress topper is a good idea. They can give you that extra bit of comfort or support you need in order to get a good night’s sleep, and they can add a layer of protection which helps to give your mattress a longer life.

If you want to buy a mattress topper for your bed there are several different types of toppers and pads to choose from. They are made from different materials and tend to fall within different price ranges. We are going to take a look at three of the different mattress toppers you will find in sale and tell you what to expect.

Traditional egg create mattress topper

This is the type of mattress topper you see most commonly. It has the familiar egg crate design. The reason way this type of mattress topper is so popular is mostly because it is usually the cheapest to buy. It provides a sufficient level of comfort and some support. One of the best things about egg crate mattress toppers is that they are really easy to handle. This means that they can be rolled up and taken with you if you want to use your mattress topper at a different location.

Wool mattress toppers

If you suffer from allergies then investing in a wool mattress topper might be a good idea. This type of mattress topper is created using natural products. In addition, the use of wool in making these mattress toppers means that they are really soft. If one of these mattress toppers appeals to you then you need to check out the cleaning instructions. Quite often this type of mattress topper can only be steam cleaned or dry cleaned.

Memory foam mattress toppers

Memory foam is becoming an increasingly popular material in the creation of mattress toppers, just as it is in making of mattresses and pillows. The major selling point of memory foam is that it makes use of the heat of the body to help it mold around you when you sleep. This means that you get high quality support for your body and specifically for your pressure points. If you suffer from back or neck pain having this support can help to ease the pain you are in. Many people aim to buy a memory foam mattress but find the cost too expensive. They end up opting for the cheaper memory foam mattress topper instead. This gives them the additional support they are seeking.

Each of the mattress toppers we have described is a popular choice. People have their own reasons why they opt for a particular type; it could be a cheaper price, a softer feel or more support. Hopefully we have given you enough information to help you be able to make a decision about which mattress topper is the best choice for you.
