How Nuch Sleep do we Really Need?
A healthy sleep is crucial for our physical, mental and emotional health. It is commonly known that an average amount of sleep for an adult is 8 hours. However, mind that the essential factor here is not the amount but the quality of our sleep. Sleep needs can vary from person to person depending on age, occupation, and biological rhythm. And it is often claimed that 8 hours is not necessarily an indicative characteristic of a healthy sleep. Some researches state that a 3-4-hour deep undisturbed sleep might fill you with vigor and energy for the whole day!
Do you Know?
The history of modern toppers is rather interesting and goes back to the 1970s when during a space program development NASA invented the material that we all know now as a memory foam. After some time, an artificial latex production technology was developed. This innovative material featured all characteristics of natural latex and suited even allergic individuals. This great invention became the basis for designing latex foam mattresses that were budget-saving and affordable for the majority of customers. In 1992 Tempur-Pedic created the first memory foam mattress that led the development of comfortable modern toppers to fit all sleeping needs.

What is a Mattress Topper
We all spend at least 1/3 of our life sleeping. For a comfortable reviving sleep we need a high-quality orthopedic mattress. And usually, it is pretty expensive. But what if your favorite mattress is sagging and you do not like it anymore? Or maybe you need to level the surface of your couch that serves as a bed. In this case, pay your attention to mattress toppers. In fact, mattress toppers look like small mattresses and often have similar functions, but still they represent a separate product group. They are much thinner than conventional mattresses and they cannot replace an ordinary mattress. However, a mattress topper is a great way to upgrade the quality of your bed, hide some drawbacks and add a cushioning effect to your couch. Our review will focus on the key parameters you need to consider while choosing your best mattress topper.

What Features to Compare
Material Types
Today we can find a variety of mattress toppers made of natural, synthetic, latex and combined materials. Natural toppers are considered the most healthy as they consist of eco-friendly materials such as silk, cotton, and wool. These products are the best options for highly allergic individuals, though such mattress toppers are not durable. Meanwhile, synthetic mattress toppers boast high durability and high performance. Besides, they are more hygienic as they do not contain organic materials and are resistant to moth and dust mites. Latex mattress toppers are usually the most expensive and at the same time the most durable models. They feature a light memory effect and can contain both synthetic and natural materials. Additionally, there are combined mattress toppers represented by the most popular memory foam models. Commonly, manufacturers combine different materials to get the necessary mattress topper qualities.
Features
Major mattress topper features include a temperature-regulating effect, a softening or hardening effect, waterproof and supportive properties. Mattress topper firmness depends on its density and falls into three categories for individual user choice: soft (up to 4lb/in³), medium (4-5.9lb/in³) and firm (over 5.9lb/in³). For higher mattress topper density manufacturers use latex, cotton, coconut fiber or memory foam. Latex mattress toppers may seem soft but still they become pretty firm under your body weight. Such toppers will suit to rejuvenate your sagging couch or enhance an old mattress. Memory foam toppers or traditional foam toppers, synthetic latex toppers and toppers with a wool layer belong to the soft group of mattress toppers. As for the dimensions, the mattress toppers are available in the variety of different sizes: Twin - 75"x39"; Twin XL - 80"х39"; Full - 75"x54"; Full XL - 80"x54"; Queen - 80"x60"; California King - 84"x72"; King - 80"x76".
Usability
Mattress toppers usability is mainly determined by the material they are made of. Natural mattress toppers are air permeable and convenient for summer. But at the same time, they are not waterproof and will not fit a child's bed. Memory foam mattress toppers have an excellent supportive effect distributing your body weight. Meanwhile, they are temperature sensitive and you may feel hot at night. Latex mattress toppers are usually waterproof and feature ventilation holes allowing improved air circulation. Today you can find a variety of mattress topper sizes on the market from a 1" Twin size to 4" King size. Hence, you will surely find the best mattress topper that will satisfy all your needs and requirements!
