Our Mattress Professionals say: Those with back pain should look for a mattress made with materials that reduce painful pressure points on the body. Memory foam mattresses such as a Tempur-Pedic contour to your body, providing proper spinal alignment while reducing pressure points. If you prefer the feel of a traditional coil mattress, choose one that combines an innerspring with layers of memory foam. You'll get similar pressure-relieving benefits with the familiar support of an innerspring. Shop Hybrid Mattresses >I wake up in the middle of the night in a pool of sweat even with the AC on. It’s uncomfortable and keeps me up at night.”
Our Mattress Professionals say: Many older mattresses are made of materials that don't breathe, which can worsen your night sweats. We have mattresses made with cooling gel-infused memory foam, or a layer of cooling gel. These new technologies absorb and deflect heat away from your body, regulating your body temperature and keeping you cool.

Is there anything I can do to ease my snoring & help her get a good night’s sleep” Our Mattress Professionals say: You’re not alone. According to a survey conducted by Sleepy’s, the biggest pet peeve among couples is their partner’s snoring! One trick you can use to help reduce your snoring is changing your pillow. The right pillow will correct your sleeping posture, align your neck and spine, and open up your airways.

Our Mattress Professionals say: Ah, the beauty of companionship! You'll want a mattress that absorbs your body weight so you're not rolling toward the middle or waking up whenever your companion gets in or out of bed. A mattress with memory foam can help. Memory foam contours to your body and absorbs some of your weight, minimizing the feel of your partner's movements. Shop Memory Foam Mattresses > If foam isn’t for you, a mattress with pocketed coils may do the trick. Pocketed coils (also called wrapped coils or encased coils) provide maximum motion separation because the coils are individually wrapped. Each coil moves independently, making motion transfer a thing of the past. Shop Mattresses With Pocketed Coils > “My back and body are OK, but I’m waking up with neck pain. Is there anything that can help me” Our Mattress Professionals say: Neck pain can be a sign it's time to replace your pillow Choose a pillow that keeps your neck and spine naturally aligned.
If you sleep on your side, use a pillow that supports your neck and spine while evenly distributing the weight of your head. For back sleepers, extra support under your shoulder is necessary to alleviate pressure on your back and neck. Stomach sleepers need a pillow that's thinner so it won't arch or turn yourr neck. Shop Pillows By Sleep Position >Shop our full mattress topper range Think of a mattress topper as the icing on the cake. Layered on top of your mattress, beneath your sheets, it restores comfort and extends the life of your mattress. Our luxury mattress toppers are made exclusively for us to meet our exceedingly particular criteria: they are all cased in 100% cotton, double stitched, and piped. YES… if your mattress is uncomfortable. It could simply be too old and need replacing, but it’s possible that a super-comfortable layer of loveliness might just do the trick….especially if you pick the right one.Toppers can also help to make beds feel warmer or cooler, and provide either more support or more softness depending on the filling you choose.
NO… if your mattress has a dip in it. That means the mattress filling is damaged and a mattress topper would just sink into the dip. YES… if you want to make your mattress last for a bit longer (especially if you’ve spent a lot on it!). A topper can also prolong the life of a mattress AND it’s a lot easier to clean or replace, keeping your bed nice and hygienic. This one's simple - choose a topper to fit your mattress. We've got single, double, king size, superking and emperor in stock and ready for delivery. It's important to match the size to your bed - unlike duvets, which you can scale up - because our toppers feature elasticated corner straps to hold them snuggly in place or they’re made in the same style as a fitted sheet – either way, they are made to fit. Natural feather and down is a popular choice as it provides a combination of softness and support. Feathers give bulk and support while the soft and light down (found on the bird’s breast) gives softness and comfort.
So the firmness of your topper depends on what went into it: the more feathers, the firmer the topper. Bulkier down like duck makes a firmer topper than goose down. The feathers used in toppers are often fairly large as a topper needs to offer a lot of support. To prevent these from poking out, feather and down toppers are often made in two sections. The bottom chamber is filled with chunky feathers and the top with fluffy down. Some toppers have a removable top layer for easy cleaning. If you suffer from allergies then you should steer away from feather and down, but there are other natural choices available that are a lot friendlier to allergy sufferers. Wool and silk are two natural fibres that make great toppers. These toppers are not as thick and fluffy as ones with feather and down or synthetic filling and they tend to have a firmer finish. They offer a thin layer of warmth, protection and support – ideal for a mattress that’s already in reasonable condition. Synthetic toppers can vary dramatically in firmness and support and it all comes down the thickness of the fibres.
Hollowfibre will offer supportive qualities while microfibre offers softness and comfort. The two fibres are often stuffed into toppers in a similar way to feather and down (the supportive hollowfibre in a bottom chamber and the soft microfibre in the top one). Good quality microfibre toppers are sumptuous, hypoallergenic and breathable. They are usually quite thick so can be a rescue remedy for an old and tired mattress. If you're looking for serious support, then take a look at memory foam. This high-tech material was designed for NASA and is now used to provide specialist spine and neck relief. Memory foam toppers soften under your body to provide customised sleeping support. The movement is so localised that you won’t be disturbed by your partner moving in the night. But be aware that a memory foam mattress will keep you quite warm. If you’re a hot sleeper and you want a memory foam mattress, you could get a lower tog duvet to balance your temperature. How firm can you go?
