Memory Foam Mattress Topper?

I want to get a memory foam mattress topper. I have a fairly new queen size bed that is in good condition but is just way to firm for me. I prefer very soft, plush mattresses and I’ve tried feather bed toppers and alternative toppers and none of them keep their shape for long enough. I think a memory foam topper is right for me. There is nowhere in my town or neighboring cities where I can test toppers (I can test mattresses but I don’t want to get a false hope of the difference between a whole mattress and just a topper).

My question concerns the density… I’ve done a little bit of research but I’m still confused. I know I want/need something that is 3 to 4 inches thick or more to make a difference on a firm bed… what I don’t know about it density… I want something soft and supportive but not firm… I want to feel like I’m sleeping in a cloud. I have heard so many conflicting opinions and I don’t know what density to get.

3 lbs? 4 lbs? 2 lbs? Help!
I just want help determining what type of density I should consider. I don’t want people to try to change my mind. I’ve done my research on the safety risks associated with memory foam.

I bought a 4" Spa Sensations Memory Foam mattress topper and it arrived this morning. It came tightly compressed to about 1 1/2 ". I’ve been letting it air out on a flat surface in my bed room with fans and fresh air all day/evening. I expected a strong chemical smell, but there was very little and it’s completely gone now. I really need to sleep on it tonight and besides, I have no where else I can put it. However, the instructions say to let it sit for up to 48 hours so it can fully expand. I just measured it and it’s almost at 4" now. Has anyone else bought one and slept on it the first night? I’m not going to like ruin it or anything by sleeping on it, am I?

So which looks best? Which would you recommend? Apparently the Serta ones get a bit warm and may or may not sag….Augh, I don’t know.

I have to purchase something to use for a mom and two kids to sleep on on the floor this weekend. I want something that I can roll up and store, not too expensive, but comfortable and useful for guests in the future. I’m thinking of a double memory foam mattress topper. or three twin foamies.

Memory Foam Mattress Topper Question?

I was just wondering how much of a difference there is in sleep comfort between a memory foam mattress topper that is 1.5" versus one that is 4". I found a 1.5" twin memory foam mattress topper at walmart for about and I also found a 4" twin xl memory foam mattress topper at Walmart for about . So I am wondering if it is worth shelling out an extra for an extra 2.5" of memory foam or just going with the 1.5" memory foam mattress topper?

I just got a Memory Foam Mattress Topper (only 2" thick), and the directions say to let the mattress topper air out for 3-4 days before putting it on your bed. It doesn’t say why. I was very anxious to start using it right away to alleviate back pain, but now I am bummed I have to stare at it sprawled out on the living room floor for a week. Is there a real purpose for this, or will it not hurt to go ahead and use it? It has been "airing out" for about 12 hours now.

My 2.5 inch memory foam mattress topper came with a cover. I like using the topper without the cover because it feels more comfortable and the sheets don’t get as wrinkled. Do I need to use the cover that came with the topper or can I just place it under the sheets?

I bought a memory foam mattress topper online (4 lb density, 3 inch thick) from Overstock. the picture showed a white foam. What arrived was a yellow-brown. Is this memory foam or something else? I read that over time, mem. foam can turn yellow, but didn’t expect it to arrive like this. Could it be latex? Allergic.
