Your bed should be a sanctuary – a place of pure comfort and relaxation. However, it’s hard to enjoy a blissful night’s sleep when your mattress isn’t the comfort level you desire. Luckily, there are many ways to change the feel of a mattress by using a mattress topper. Adding a mattress topper is one of the simplest ways to boost comfort and improve your sleep experience without having to invest big bucks in a brand new bed.
In most cases, you can transform an older, innerspring mattress into a much softer, more pressure relieving sleep surface. Whether you choose a memory foam, latex or goose down feather bed topper, you’ll soon be slumbering away in cloud-like cushioning. Here at Mattress World Northwest, the leading mattress retailer in Portland, Oregon, our sleep specialists offer tips on how to make your bed exceptionally comfortable. If your mattress isn’t as soft as you’d prefer, follow these steps to create a luxuriously indulgent bed, and remember, it’s all in the layering! Get Started with a Sleep Analysis Make a mattress softer: tips Step One – Rotate your mattress 180 degrees first, to help promote more even wear. Step Two – Buy a waterproof mattress protector; not only will it protect against accidental spills and extend the life of your mattress, it can add an extra touch of comfort. Step Three – Add a mattress topper to increase comfort and overall cushioning.
There are many styles and materials to choose from, including conventional egg-crate toppers, memory foam toppers, latex mattress toppers, and natural wool toppers. Step Four – Add another layer of cushioning with an additional mattress topper for double the comfort! Hint: for 5-star hotel luxury put a thick feather bed topper on top of a 2 or 3-inch memory foam pad. Step Five – For the ultimate sleep experience, ensure your sheets are super soft and not scratchy. Only select high thread-count cotton sheets (Egyptian and Pima cotton are softest), or those made from bamboo. Step Six – Invest in quality pillows made with latex or cool gel memory foam, depending on your sleep position and preferences. Types of mattress toppers Mattress toppers offer pressure relief to the surface of an overly firm bed. Egg crates – By far the most cost-effective choice, egg crate toppers vary in thickness and offer an easy solution to a hard bed. Be warned, they tend to sleep hot!
Memory foam – If you can’t afford a high-tech memory foam mattress, a topper is the next best thing. These also vary in thickness and provide excellent relief for painful joints while helping to reduce motion transfer. Be sure to look for hypoallergenic versions if you’re sensitive to chemicals. Feather topper – While more expensive, a down topper offers exquisite comfort and a touch of luxury. Pro: feather toppers sleep warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Con: they are not mite and dust resistant, and can provoke allergic reactions in some people. However, several companies sell down alternative mattress toppers made with a polyester fiber fill. Hybrid topper – Get the best of both worlds with a hybrid topper that combines the pillow-like comfort of feather with the body-conforming support of memory foam. Latex mattress topper – Healthy and eco-friendly, mattress toppers made with natural latex can quickly transform an uncomfortable bed. Highly recommended for people who suffer from arthritis and sciatica.
In general, latex sleeps cooler than memory foam since it doesn’t trap heat. Wool mattress topper – These toppers are typically made with soft Merino fleece, and are excellent for allergy-sensitive individuals. Wool is breathable, helps with temperature regulation and wicks moisture from your body. Adding a cozy mattress topper adds just enough to cushioning to make even the hardest beds feel soft. And with the right sheets and pillows, you can transform your bed into an oasis of comfort.

Well, I say dreamy but if you’re in the same situation I was some months ago, the chances are you’re feeling anything but! Just to give you a bit of background information on why you see this creation before you today, I was in a pretty bad place some time ago and if this is the same with you, I am happy to let you know that a good mattress can really turn your world around.
It could be that you’re the same as I was and you’re fed-up with those aches and pains that bug you every morning when you wake-up. It could also be that you’re just looking for a new mattress and have already done a whole load of research on the internet, or have been to your local store and still can’t find a mattress that will suit your needs. Either way, I happen to be an avid lover of memory foam and I also believe that you don’t have to take out a second mortgage so you can pay for it. So, in the following pages you won’t just find reviews on what I think are some of the best brands of foam mattresses on the market right now, but also a good smattering of other pages that are there for information alone. In fact, I like to think of my website as a place where you can find all the information you need in one place. If you already know what type of mattress you would like, or you don’t have the time to navigate through my website until you find the right one, I have added a comparison table for you.
In this table you will be met with straight to the point facts about model, type, size and a whole host of other easy to see facts on the foam mattresses I have here. At the end, if you do have time for that cup of coffee I have also added a link so you can read the full review on the product you’re interested in.I have plenty of informational pages that will help you understand how to choose a memory foam mattress, what type might suit you best and much more. Below is a list of what I have included and you’re more than welcome to click on the link if you would like more information. If you’ve managed to wade through all of the information above without falling asleep, I now move onto my best picks for memory foam mattresses. Best Memory Foam Mattress Overall For my best overall I choose the Sleep Innovations SureTemp because it’s a high quality mattress for a very fair price. In the review you will find three different depths: the 12 inch, 10 inch and 8 inch model, but the reason I chose this model isn’t just because the sizes will suit a wide range of people, it also comes with a 20 year warranty – something that’s not very common in this price range.
Best High-End Quality Foam Mattress OK, so this isn’t the cheapest model I have in my selection of reviews, but the Ultimate Dreams 13” Gel Foam mattress has got pretty much everything. It includes a cooling layer, is available in no less than six sizes and really will help to keep those night-time aches and pains away. In fact, it has been compared to some of the large and expensive brand names out there but comes at a fraction of the price. Best Mattress for the Money I know many people who have spent well in excess of $1500 on a memory foam mattress, and even more than that in some cases. The models I have reviewed here will not cost you anywhere near that much, yet you still have the benefit of memory foam technology. Even 12 Inch of that if you want, but you can also choose for 6 or 8 Inch and save even more! Best Therapeutic Foam Mattress You may recall that I have mentioned my aches and pains which hardly ever bother me anymore, and I’m a firm believer that it’s because I switched to the DynastyMattress Therapeutic Deluxe.
This is why it earns a place as my best therapeutic mattress, although I will say this is for those of you who prefer a firm mattress. That aside, in my opinion this mattress has been my savior this past few months! Best 10-Inch Budget Memory Foam If you get time to go through my website, you will notice that I constantly mention the fact that people complain about becoming overheated when sleeping on a memory foam mattress (especially those in the lower price range). The LUCID by LinenSpa gets my vote for the best 10″ budget mattress because I think the manufacturer has done an excellent job at using technology that will keep you cool all night long. Best Kids Memory Foam Mattress I couldn’t forget the children could I? After all, we have to remember that growing bones and joints need to be protected and that’s why I have chosen the Sleep Master 6 inch as my best kids mattress. Apart from offering the best overnight support for a little body, this model also comes with an easy zip-off Jacquard cover (for those little accidents), and it won’t break the bank!
You thought I had forgotten didn’t you! Well, my website wouldn’t be complete without reviews on mattress toppers as well, and you can find the whole selection here. However, my favorite is the Density Visco 4lb which is 3 inches thick. If you can’t afford a completely new mattress right now, this is the answer! I also happen to think this topper is a great idea if you’re considering moving to memory foam for the first time and just want to give it a try. Unlike a traditional mattress, a memory foam mattress will need to be cared for slightly differently, and surprisingly maintenance in general can differ from brand to brand. However, there are some basic rules to follow, and you will find out what they are on this page. You can also take a look at this video page I’ve added which shows you how to steam clean a mattress. For those of you who are considering a memory foam mattress for the first time, and would like to know what the differences are between certain types, I have also added these pages for you:
And if you’re someone who likes to know how the finished product eventually arrives at your door, you can also take a look at this great video I found that details how latex and memory foam mattresses are made. It doesn’t stop there on the information front! You can also find out more about the different types of foam (and there are quite a few to consider) or the considerations for side-, back- and stomach sleepers. This last one is probably the most important to at least have a quick look through. The reason for this is the position you sleep in has a lot to do with the type of foam mattress you should consider looking into, and the last thing I want is for you to come away from my website with the wrong product! Gaining the perfect level of comfort does have an awful lot to do with the type of mattress you have, but here are other things to remember that will help you finally get that uninterrupted night’s sleep you’ve been “day-dreaming” about. For one thing, your pillow could be the source of some of the discomfort you experience, and I have added another video with tips on finding the right pillow.
