Mattresses toppers

Sleep is an important process that allows a person to regain efficiency and health. Its quality depends on several external factors, among which today special attention is paid to the surface. This is due to the large number of diseases of the back, which appear under heavy loads. One of the options to improve the quality of rest are Topper mattresses. The modern market offers many of their modifications, which you can learn more.

Topper is called a relatively thin mattress, which is used as the top layer on the main surface. Very often they are confused with mattress covers, but these are different products. The latter is used only to protect the main mattress from dust.

The main purpose of toppers is to create optimal and comfortable sleep conditions.Very often they are used to change the characteristics of the main mattress. With this product you can make the surface softer or tougher.

Some modifications are equipped with special mounts, allowing to fix the topper on the bed. Such products are great for leveling sofas that are not adapted for sleeping.

Toppers are very common modifications of mattresses. According to the reviews, they perfectly adapt to the contours of the body and make sleeping much more pleasant. But among the many positive aspects of it, several main advantages should be singled out:

• Topper restores the characteristics of the old mattress. This is especially important for spring systems, which over time lose elasticity and become rigid. When using the models in question, it is possible to reduce the pressure on the human body, as well as improve comfortable sleeping conditions.It should be noted that the cost of such a “rehabilitation” is much less than the cost of a new high-grade orthopedic mattress.
• The change in surface hardness. Orthopedic mattresses purchased earlier may not be suitable for all people. Therefore, if necessary, it is possible to adapt an old surface with the help of a topper.

• Good orthopedic characteristics. This feature is found only in some modifications. They are made of special foam or natural raw materials, which not only keeps the body in the right position, but also remembers its shape. Thus, the quality of rest is significantly improved.

Toppers are not a universal solution to all problems with a berth. When buying them, it should be understood that these are not full-fledged orthopedic mattresses, therefore it is not recommended to use them as independent sleep products.

Thin mattresses have several significant drawbacks:

• The level of their effectiveness is not always what manufacturers point to. Today, many customers are not suitable for such products, so it is important to purchase toppers, after testing their work. Please note that if springs are bobbed on your bed, then no upper layer can improve comfort. It should completely change the whole structure to a new one.
• Custom sizes. Many manufacturers produce mattresses with dimensions that do not coincide with the area of ​​the bed. Therefore, before buying it is important to consider all sizes. If you want to get a quality topper, then purchase it to order with the manufacture of individual sizes.

• Unpleasant smell. A similar phenomenon is very often present in new models. This affects the quality of sleep. But the smell disappears in a few days. If this does not happen, it indicates a poor quality topper. Therefore, you need to contact the store to exchange the product.
• Some models during sleep slide from the main surface. This is not a critical issue. If you want to completely eliminate it, purchase toppers with special clamps.

The quality of the mattress mainly depends on its internal filling. Today, in the production of toppers, several natural substances are used:

• Latex. The product is foamed rubber. Differs in hypoallergenicity, ease and softness. Use the same surface people who have no health problems.
• Algae and agave fiber. Completely natural product, notable for safety. Therefore, it is often made toppers for cots.
• Coconut fiber. This is one of the most popular products, which is used in almost all types of orthopedic mattresses. For bonding fibers using natural latex. The filler of this type is hypoallergenic, durable, resistant to moisture. It should also be noted that there are practically no harmful bacteria inside. Coconut coir is a very tough material, so this surface is not suitable for everyone. It is recommended to use it for people with spinal problems or for the prevention of diseases of the musculoskeletal system.

• Wool. Such toppers are very rare, as they have a high cost. The material perfectly softens hard surfaces and also has a very long service life.Among the disadvantages are the minimum level of depreciation in the first days of service and the possibility of an unpleasant odor.

As a filler for mattresses of this type are increasingly using special piece substances. Today, many foam products have been synthesized, among which there are several main ones:

• Artificial latex. The material is a polymer whose properties are almost the same as natural rubber. Differs artificial analogue rigidity, which is slightly higher than that of the natural product.
• Polyurethane foam. Foam has unique characteristics. It should be noted that in its manufacture, you can change the stiffness. The products are hypoallergenic and durable. One of the disadvantages of polyurethane is that it sinks very quickly.

• Memoriform. This is a type of polyurethane, which is characterized by high elasticity. The material perfectly adapts to the curves of a person, and then quickly returns to its original form. This product has a memory effect.
• Combined products. Almost all of these substances can be combined with each other. This allows you to change the basic characteristics of the topper (stiffness, elasticity, etc.). Sometimes manufacturers also use holofiber as an extra pad. It increases depreciation rates and extends the life of the product.

Mattresses of this type are produced by many companies that optimize them for specific human needs. This led to the fact that a fairly large number of sizes of toppers appeared on the market. Among all the variety, the most popular size is 120x200 cm and 140x200 cm. They can be perfectly adapted to double beds or large sofas.

If you have a single design, you can find smaller modifications on the market. As for the thickness, it depends on the manufacturer and filler. Often it does not exceed 10 cm. But there are toppers, whose height can reach 20 cm.Such products are practically no different from orthopedic mattresses.

This element is very important, as it protects the filler from rapid wear and gives the surface a pleasant appearance. Most models of covers are made of special synthetic fabrics. They do not slip, which makes it easy to fix the mattress on the surface of the bed.

Still, many experts argue that it is better to use products made from natural fabrics. The most prominent representative of this category is cotton, which is completely hypoallergenic and perfectly breathable. Covers are also made of satin and silk, which perfectly absorb water and provide high-quality air exchange.

Some children's modifications of toppers are additionally equipped with multi-layered covers. The top layer is made of safe natural product, and the lower elements are impregnated with special antibacterial substances.

Today the market is oversaturated with various models of toppers. Each of them has its own unique features that distinguish it from others.

Today, Dormeo is one of the most popular manufacturers of such a business. Among the entire range of their products can be identified several well-known modifications:

• "Dormeo Roll Up Comfort". The model is intended for use as a topper, as well as an independent design. It has excellent support for the head, neck and lumbar. This is achieved through a special Ecocell foam.
