Mellow 4" Ventilated Memory Foam Mattress Topper, Twin

A couple of months ago, we moved our daughter up to a big girl “princess” bed from her convertible crib/toddler bed. We shopped around to find the most economical box spring and mattress (she's three, so it didn't make sense to spend too much. We got Walmart's least expensive mattress, which is of good quality but very thin, and our daughter really preferres our much “cushier” bed in the master bedroom. I began looking for a mattress topper to make her more comfortable (and to hopefully get her out of our bed), and I found the “Best Price 2-inch Mattress Topper” for around thirty bucks. You can't beat that. The very compact box arrived about a week ago, and we finally had time for the “unboxing” today. The topper was folded and vacuum-sealed inside this small box! At first, we were a little disappointed because the topper seemed paper-thin and much too narrow for a twin bed. However, as we watched, the topper “ inflated to the full two-inch depth and twin-size width. After it inflated and aired out a little, we placed it in our daughter's mattress and remade her bed. She loves it! It's so soft and cozy now, and the topper really makes up for the thin mattress. Maybe I'll take it over tonight if she still insists on staying in our bed....

The information provided in the box with this mattress topper said it should relax back to its full size and shape in 24 hours. It actually only took about 5 hours until it was fully poofed up, which was nice. It also said there might be an odor that will dissipate, which I've found to be true with many plastic and foam items; but this mattress topper had no odor whatsoever, and I have an overly keen sense of smell (a blessing and a curse). So I was pleased from the start. I'm arthritic and have back and hip problems, so I'm always looking for items that will make me more comfortable, especially when sleeping. This mattress topper didn't disappoint! Others I've tried have been TOO soft. This one is firm yet comfortable and conforms nicely to my body offering the comfortable support I need. Generally I'm only able to sleep 3 to 4 hours at a stretch before pain and discomfort wake me. With this mattress topper I slept through the night in absolute comfort, and when I woke I just wanted to stay in bed because I was so comfortable! If you've been searching for something to help you get a good night's rest, and you suffer from old age back and joint problems like I do, I highly recommend this mattress topper! You won't be disappointed.
