Considering a memory foam mattress topper?
If so, you've come to the right place because I have some important news to share with you.
My research team has collected data from over 270 memory foam topper owners. Below, I provide our research results related to comfort, price and topper thickness.
Comfortable
Based on the data, 253 owners report their memory foam mattress toppers to be comfortable and 34 find them to be uncomfortable. In other words, 93% of owners find their topper comfortable. (Interestingly, this comfort rating is higher than the overall comfort rating for memory foam mattresses, according to our related research.)
Price
The clear majority of owners in our research paid between and 0 for their topper. The price range is chiefly due to variation in topper thickness. (The thicker the topper the pricier it is.)
More expensive memory foam toppers are available which can cost several hundreds of dollars, such as Tempur-pedic brand topper. Should you spring for the more expensive brands? Based on the high owner satisfaction that discount toppers have among their owners, according to our research, there is apparently limited advantage in paying more. However, an expensive brand like Tempurpedic will most likely have less off gassing (initial odor) and be less likely to sleep hot.
Thickness
The majority of owners in our research had either the 2 inch or 3 inch thickness. Fewer owners had the 4 inch thickness and even a smaller number had the 1 inch thickness.
An effective way to find out how thick of a topper you need is to put something hard yet quite small (such as legos, matchbox cars, etc.) beneath the topper and then lay on it. The topper with thickness adequate to prevent you from feeling the object is probably a wise selection for you. There is little reason to pay for a thicker topper than you actually need.
