Mattress Topper FAQs
You're considering buying a mattress topper, but you're not sure if it's the right decision.
A mattress topper is an affordable way to improve the comfort and support of your current mattress. Toppers are available in a variety of materials, including memory foam, latex, and down. They can also be custom fit to your unique sleep style.
If you're still unsure if a mattress topper is right for you, read our FAQ below for more information about this popular bedding accessory.
-
It depends on the topper. Some are machine-washable and some are not.
If it is not machine-washable, then you should probably replace it every 2 to 3 years, assuming you utilize a cover.
If it is machine-washable, then you should wash it every 6 to 12 months.
-
It is not recommended to flip a memory foam topper, as they are usually designed to be used on one side, with the upper layer for comfort and the lower layer for support. Flipping the topper could damage the foam or decrease its lifespan.
-
A fitted sheet. Fitted sheets are designed to fit snugly on mattresses of all sizes, so they're a perfect choice for use with mattress toppers.
-
Generally, a mattress topper is meant to be placed under the fitted sheet. A fitted sheet over the topper acts as a layer of protection for the mattress topper, which is great especially for non-machine-washable varieties.
-
If you're looking for extra comfort and don't mind the added height, then a 4-inch mattress topper should be plenty. A thicker topper will provide more cushioning and support, while a thinner topper will offer less of both.
