Memory Foam

Admiral Huddy · 13-11-2008, 10:32

We bough a new super king size bed last year but the matress is a bit on the hard side, and I've not been sleeping too well. Anyway, we tought we might get a memory foam topper.

Do any of you have one? Are they as good as they sound?

This one's only £200.

Also, does anyone know if there is any differecve between the 4gb and 7gb memory foam.. Opps sorry course of habbit- 4cm and 7cm, apart from the 3cm

We have a memory foam topper over a pocket sprung bed and it's the ideal compromise IMO. We found a full memory foam bed to be too "enveloping".

£200 seems expensive to me though.

do you have a 4cm or thicker?

That sounds about right I think.

what the 4cm or thicker

phykell · 13-11-2008, 11:30

LOL - it's around 4cm I reckon. The only issue is that combined with a really thick quilt and soft cotton sheets, it's really difficult to get out of bed

Loads of good info here, our new memory foam topped pocket sprung mattress should be here next week

Although you need to make sure its a good quality memory foam you don't need to spend £200!

They all seem to be around £200 if not more. Remembering this is super king size.

Actually, the 5cm is cheaper :

Is that any good?

Looking around you seem to be right about the price, you want the the most dense foam available as this means the best quality, that thread I pointed you at on MSE has a lot of information about both mattresses and toppers, Yanis seems like a reputable brand from what I have seen but there are loads of others, byy all accounts a lot of the stuff is produced in the same factory and rebranded but still look for the heavier foams as they are better.
