Materials
A mattress topper can be made of a variety of materials. The shoppers can choose the one that suits their preferences and sleep needs. For example, some shoppers may want to try a memory foam pillow, whereas others may prefer a natural latex or down option.
A memory foam top can provide a thick layer that is comfortable and helps relieve pressure points. It’s an excellent option for side or back sleepers, and it can also aid in relieving pains and aches due to an old mattress. A memory foam mattress will also decrease the chance of deep impressions or sagging.
Some memory foam toppers are available in two different levels of firmness: Plush and Luxury Firm. The latter is more suitable for those who prefer a more traditional feel. This Nolah topper comes in various sizes and comes with straps that wrap around the mattress edges to keep it in place.

It’s also designed to stop slipping from the bed, which is a problem with certain mattress toppers.
Some toppers are filled a mixture of feathers and duck down to give a plush pillow-top feeling. The Brooklinen down topper, for instance is composed of a top layer that is 100% natural European White Duck down and feathers in the base that come from the underbelly (rather than quills) of the bird. This makes it more comfortable.
A mattress pad, protector or encasement can be used in conjunction with a mattress topper in order to protect it and provide more comfort. Mattress protectors are thin layer that is placed over the mattress to keep moisture, bacteria, and dust mites off the mattress. It can add a little cushioning, but it is not intended to be as comfortable as a mattress topper.
Comfort
In contrast to mattress protectors, which protect the mattress’s surface from accidents and spills toppers are made to provide additional cushioning to provide comfort. Mattress toppers come in a range of materials and thicknesses, ranging from 1 to 4 inches thick. They’re ideal for older mattresses that have lost their comfort layers or on mattresses that are firm to make them feel softer and more comfortable.

Storage
A mattress topper can be a great way of extending the life of an existing mattress, and it can also provide extra comfort and support. It also stops sagging or softening with time. However, a topper may lose its shape or become mouldy if not properly stored. It is best to store a mattress topper in a temperature-controlled area, such as an storage unit.

A storage unit can keep your mattress topper cool and dry, preventing the growth harmful bacteria in warm and humid areas.
Before storing your mattress take it off of all bedding. This will help keep the cushion as clean as it can be and will prevent dust mites from getting into the. You might also want to wash any stains off the top of the cushion. If the stains don’t get removed, they can turn into odors which could impact the quality of your sleep.

Be sure to choose one that is the proper size for your mattress topper. If it isn’t the dimensions, you can use duct tape along the edges to make a seal.
