I honestly don't know why it is but I don't have much luck with mattresses. Our last one started to wear on my side meaning I was constantly lying on springs whilst our current one seems to have developed a noticeable dip in the half where I sleep (and I swear it's not like I'm fat or anything!?!). We couldn't afford to buy a whole new mattress so when I read about these mattress toppers, they seemed like a blooming good idea! I have long had a memory foam pillow and have found it the height of comfort despite some people claiming that they take some getting used to, so figured that a mattress topper made of similar material was the way to go!

Memory foam is a type of foam that moulds to the body following the natural contours. This allows your body to relax and it helps the blood flow easily through your viens as there are no pressure points to restrict the flow.

This has to be the best purchase I've ever made. I always suffered from a bad back and found sleeping awkward due to struggling to get comfortable. All that changed the minute I put this seemingly unimpressive piece of foam on top of my mattress. I woke up the next day having not woken up once during the night, hurray! The more I used it the easier my back pain became. Obviously as the day goes on the pain re-emerges however I now look forward to going to sleep instead of being anxious over whether I'd sleep or be tossing and turning all night. I realised just how much straighter my spine was in the mornings as I have to adjust my rear view mirror when I get in the car ..  Read the complete review
