Memory Foam Mattress Topper

Memory Foam Mattress Topper

My ageing mattress was starting to get a little lumpy, and I couldn't afford a new one. So instead of spending that amount of money, I got a mattress topper, figuring it would ease things for a while. A couple of hundred dollars you know, hoping it would do till I could afford a mattress.

All it does is make me sweat. I can be lying in bed, cold, and when I roll over the sheet beneath me is soaked! $200 down the drain....

Basically the exact same thing happened to my grandmother. She bought a mattress top, the foam ones you always see advertised on television. She spent about $150 on it, and it did not work at all. She hated the way that it felt, and the little pockets collected so much sweat that it started to smell really bad. She eventually threw it out a month after she bought it.

So far I am keeping it going because having spent this much money I REALLY can't afford a new mattress now! So I have four sheets over it, to soak up the sweat. My poor washing machine doesn't know what has hit it!

I also have tried to save some small cash but ended up spending a lot more . I think that it is better to spend a good amount once and for all ,

Being in back pain is one of the most uncomfortable experiences on the planet. If you want my honest opinion, instead of purchasing a miracle bed go and speak with a professional about how to best deal with your back pain.

She didn't really mention being in back pain, she just said her bed was getting lumpy. Sometimes a mattress pad can make the bed more comfortable, just not this one in her case.

I would never spent that money without checking to see if you could just buy a new mattress for that price. I know where I live you can buy a good one for a couple hundred. That is something you should have checked into before buying.
