The Gransnet guide to buying a mattress topper
Whether you're plagued by a lumpy mattress, or struggle to get up in the mornings for all the wrong reasons, there's a topper out there to solve the problem (though we make no promises when it comes to the OH's snoring).
Firmer or softer, warmer or cooler, here's how to make your bed so cosy you won't want to get out of it... <don't mind if we do>

For summer and winter nights |
If you're a hot bod |
| Luxury reversible topper | Coolmax memoryfoam topper |
|
"My first mattress topper was sheepskin, and it was just glorious in winter, but too hot in summer. I have since heard that I should have turned it fleecy side down in the warmer months." |
"Make sure you get Coolmax which stops you being hot in bed!" |
|
Buy: Amazon, from £47.50 |
|
For softening up a hard mattress |
...without feathers |
| Duck feather topper | Supremely washable topper |
|
"I have rheumatoid arthritis and have a feather mattress topper and it is wonderful, I wouldn't be without it. I would recommend them to everyone." |
A squishy polyester option for those who prefer not to have down. Happily, you can wash and dry this beauty in one day, so no need to miss a good night's sleep. |
|
Buy: Loaf, £55-85 |
|
Good for painful joints
|
And comfort...just because!
|
| Dormeo Octaspring Body Zone topper | The Bettersleep Company microfibre topper |
|
"I love my Octaspring topper, I bought it to add softness when I had tender hips." |
"I bought a microfibre topper which is like sleeping on a cloud." |
|
Buy: Dormeo, from £179.99 |
Buy: Amazon, £24.99 |
Tip: invest in some 'deeper' sheets to allow for the height that your topper adds to the bed. No more sheets pinging off!
