I’m looking for a king size, 4-6 inch memory foam mattress pad. Right now Walmart has the best price of 5 for 6". I checked Amazon, Target, and Kohls and they are too pricey. Are there any other stores or trusty online sites that have what I’m looking for at a reasonable price (0 or below)? Thanks in advance

I need help selecting a mattress!?

So I’m getting a new bed and mattress and I was looking around. I found a really pretty canopy bed that I want that needs a box spring. Then I found a Serta memory foam mattress that says it works great with slatted or platform beds. Does the memory foam mattress ONLY work for those type of beds, or would it be fine with a box spring underneath it? Here’s the links, just in case.

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?

I have looked into overstock.com and their serta memory foam matress toppers and they have received mixed reviews.

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.

Memory foam mattress woes?

I bought a memory foam mattress for a considerable amount of money and I think I hate it.

Its so firm, if you flop onto the bed you’ll knock the wind out of yourself.

So many writeups say that after 5 mins you heat it up and you sink into it.

This doesnt seem to be happening – especially because of the layer of convoluted egg-crate foam it has as a pillow top.

I only weigh 140 lbs. I dont "depression" the bed much nor "heat it up" I dont have a whole lot of body heat or insulation to spare myself. And with the convoluted foam layer "pillow top" I dont think im heating the memory foam at all

I can’t sleep on my side because it doesnt ‘sink’ enough. My shoulder and hip start to hurt within 20 minutes. The couch is more comfortable for side sleeping than my bed =/

You watch the commercials and see them push their hand into the bed…. that room must be preheated 90° or something. Theres no way you could do that with mine.

Now I dont know what to do. Can’t return it.
Stuck with a giant queen size 12" memory foam matress

Any advice?

I would like to buy a memory foam mattress and when researching which would be the best to buy i discovered they contain harmful chemicals which are even worse for people with asthma….which is what i have. I have looked for organic memory foam mattresses/toppers but can only find them at £1000-£2000 and was not looking to pay that much for one. Would really appreciate if someone could tell me where i could get one from at a reasonable price
