My Back and Hips Really Needed This
My mattress is what it used to be, and within the last 6 months or so it's really started to hurt my back and hips. I've never tried memory foam before, but I decided to take the plunge, and I do not regret it.
In the box, you get the bed topper which is rolled up and vacuum sealed, an instruction manual, and a small cutter to carefully open up the vacuum-sealed bag to allow air inside so it can start regaining shape.
I highly recommend having this placed on your bed before breaking the seal on the vacuum-sealed bag. You'll thank me for the suggestion because this thing regains its basic shape really quickly. The big thing I noticed upon taking ahead of its plastic seal was that there was a big crease straight down the middle center that was also folded over onto itself. Thankfully, I waited a day before opening this, so I could open it early in the morning and let it have all day to set and regain shape. By the time I went to bed that night around 15 hours later, it had gained its proper shape with no creases in sight.
To properly install the topper, it's as simple as lighting up with your mattress and taking the straps in the corners and then down under the corners of your mattress. Straps can be adjusted to accommodate the size of your mattress I have a very thick mattress, and I was still able to fool them down over it and slide in and under the corners without any issue. I've been sleeping on it for nearly a week at this point and it hasn't offered to move once.
One slight downfall I found is my sheets no longer fit on my bed properly. So I can no longer tap them in under my mattress, I instead have to tuck them in under the topper, which doesn't allow them to set nearly as tightly as I need to. So you may need to order a bigger size sheet if you get this topper because of the extra 4 inches of depth it provides to your bed.
At first, I wasn't getting much sleep while using this thing, and it's because whenever I switch her mattress out or switch any part of my bed out, it takes my body a few days to get used to it. After those few days though, I've been sleeping considerably better. I used to wake up with my hips hurting a lot because my mattress was getting kinda lumpy and the padding was all over the place. This memory foam condors to my body beautifully and it's thick enough that it prevents my hips from hurting when I sleep on my side. I'm a side sleeper at that, so it's a huge blessing. I've also had considerably less back pain since installing this memory foam topper.
Overall, I would highly recommend this. It's considerably cheaper than having to buy a new mattress, and it adds a level of comfort that I've never experienced before as I've never used memory foam. It condors your body well and if you're a person that rolls around a lot in the night like I do, it quickly reshapes itself to your body and you don't even realize it.
you won't feel any mattress springs through it...
BedStory 4’ mattress topper
Pros:
-cooling
-thick, and sufficient padding
-nice material
-easy to put on top of the mattress (my 12 yr old was able to put this on her mattress, without any help)
Cons
-it’s a little too firm for her liking
-the fitted sheet doesn’t quite fit right anymore, despite being a deep pocket style
- the topper folds, so it has these cuts in it to make it easier to do so. Because of this, the separation between the pieces is felt. I did suggest turning the mattress topper upside-down so maybe it wouldn’t be as noticeable, but she said it didn’t work because of the elastics or something
Impossible de coucher sur le matelas dur qu’on s’était acheté sans ce dessus très confortable!
My smart watch tells me that this alone has increased my deep sleep quite a bit. I know it's time for a new mattress, however it's just not in the budget. This has been the answer to my problem. I'd do it again happily. I'm so much better off than before.
Our mattress is getting old but we're not quite ready to change it out, so I bought this topper to extend it's life. I am SO happy with the results. We have been sleeping better ever since we installed it.
Only thing I wish I would have thought of sooner is that this adds extra thickness to the mattress and our current fitted sheets don't really fit anymore.
Added this to our son's mattress, he loves it. He said it's very comfortable and has the best sleep.
I am picky about my pillow. I don't like too soft or too firm but this pillow is just the right balance and very comfortable.
These pillows are great. It was funny to see how they were packaged - squished into a plastic bag. Once they were out of the packaging, they fluffed up instantly. They are very comfortable pillows. I sleep on my back and sides and this pillow is perfect for both.
AExactly what we were looking for! After multiple times trying to replace our existing comfortable very old pillows, we finally found these! They do not cause you to wake up with a neck or back ache, just enough support and very soft. Thank You, will be buying more!
After a week’s stay at a higher end resort I really liked the pillows there instead of the ones I had at home. As I just bought a new king mattress I was on the hunt for new pillows too. After scouring looking for the same pillows at the resort and finding they were sold strictly to that resort, I began to look at other pillows.
I scoured Amazon going through a ton of pillows before dec9mg on these from Bedstay. I ordered them and they were delivered before 8AM the next morning. I hope this review helps you decide.
Packaging: I cam honestly say the pillows were more protected than most high end bodyguards could do! The layers were shipping box, the item box, each pillow was individually bagged and then the pillow themselves.
Initial use: after opening all the boxes and bags they were shipped in I unrolled them (they are shipped flat and rolled up). Opened the bag and let them sit for about 5 minutes. I fluffed the -I’ll owe for 2-3 minutes each and like a hot dog at the ballpark, they plumped up nicely.
How do the sleep? I’m a side sleeper that lays pretty much with the pillow and they are firm enough that my body doesn’t crush them and it really gives a lot of support to my body, back and neck. This gave me a pretty good nap the first day and then a good night’s sleep at night.
I’m planning to order a couple of more to really make good use of these pillows on the king size bed.
Love it
We bought a new mattress which I found too firm and hubby liked it. Ordered this topper and it was firm enough for hubby yet gave me that bit of cushion I needed.
