4 things you don’t know about a mattress topper


Introduction:


The bedding is the most essential part of the bed and the mattress gives complete support and comfort to the sleepers. In addition to this is a mattress topper which most often is least talked about. This may not be very necessary but it will surely keep the body very cosy and regulate the body temperature as well. A very good mattress topper can give an extra year or more before there is a need to replace the mattress. Mattress pads and toppers are two different items. Mattress pads also offer cushioning, but they are thinner than the mattress toppers.



Benefits of mattress toppers

With the age of the mattresses, they lose the cushioning support. A mattress topper will not make the mattress return to its best days. However it can significantly increase the level of comfort allowing the user much more time before they actually buy a new mattress.


Different types of mattress toppers


Choosing the right topper is very important as one gets very confused when they see so many varieties in the bedding stores. There is no use buying a mattress that ruins the sleep instead of making it a peaceful one. The most popular materials of toppers are memory foam, latex, polyester blends, wool and feathers.


Memory foams are very popular ones. It is very soft as well as comfortable. It reduces pressure on sore joints and arthritis. Also provides comfort to the hard old mattresses. However these are expensive and gets very heated up in the hot weathers.


Polyester blends are least expensive materials and also the least supportive. Another name of polyester blend is fiberfill. These are good substitute for those who love the feathery feel but are allergic to real feathers. Also these have no odour and tend to compress with usage or become lumpy with time.


Feather toppers are also known as feather beds and are super soft. Little support is provided by these toppers and since these feathers are directly plucked from the birds it is not a feasible option for the vegetarian, vegan or animal right activists. These do not retain heat and are less expensive than memory foam or latex. However the disadvantage is that the feathery stuff can poke the user through the fabric. Also these compress with time and require to be shaken periodically. Also many are allergic to feathers.


The most important buy for the bed is a good mattress. Extra comfort can be added to the mattress with the right topper. It offers necessary support and also allows the sleeper to snug comfortably inside the bed. In short as mentioned by a mattress topper Dubai Company, it is surely a very small investment with a large return when it comes to having a good night’s sleep.
