Meradiso Mattress Topper 90 x 200 cm, White

Product Information

According to the Sleep Foundation, it’s completely natural for air beds to lose some inflation over time. However, if this happens regularly, it’s probably due to a puncture of some kind. If this sounds like a problem you’re dealing with, fear not, as DIY repairs are very common within the air bed community. Polyfoam: Polyfoam conforms to the body, but not quite as closely as memory foam. This material also feels a bit more responsive. You may find a polyfoam topper comfortable if you want a balance of contouring and surface-level bounciness. Many polyfoam toppers are convoluted with a ridged surface; these models are also known as “egg-crate toppers.” A ratio of around 1:3 between bed and bedroom is sometimes said to look best, but that can be difficult in practice. Following this advice would mean, for instance, that for a king-size bed (150 x 200cm) you'd need a 6 x 8-metre bedroom.

But we've been impressed by basic foam mattresses in the past, and if you're just looking for a cheap-and-cheerful mattress it might be just the thing.

The Shifting Mattress Industry

The topper contains 2 inches of memory foam. This material conforms closely to the body, but shouldn’t trap too much heat due to small perforations intended to promote airflow and an infusion of cooling gel that dissipates body heat. A cotton cover encases the foam. You may remove and machine-wash the cover as needed. Each corner is equipped with an adjustable strap for securing the topper to your sleep surface, which prevents it from shifting when you change sleep positions during the night. Pump: For a super-easy-to-use air bed, you’ll want to opt for one that has a built-in pump, including manual, battery-operated, and plug-in. We’d suggest going for one with an electric option, as this will make the blowing-up-process faster.

Nearly half of Which? members own a king-size mattress, making it the most popular size – and they're widely available. We also measure a third time to assess how supportive each topper is for people who prefer to lay on their front, when used on a mattress. The purpose of a topper is to improve how your mattress feels. As cushioning materials deteriorate and soften over time, the surface of a mattress will become uneven from body impressions and indentations. This can decrease support and lead to aches and pains. Most toppers have soft to medium feels, and are intended to add cushioning to a firm mattress. However, some toppers are on the firmer side and meant for mattresses that feel overly soft. Like bed-in-a-box mattresses, they sometimes need to be aired or left for a fair few hours to regain shape.The average air bed can easily last up to 15 years. Often, if you opt for an air bed that has a built-in pump, the pump will fail before the bed will. How to choose the best air bed for you A super-king mattress is the size of two standard single mattresses side by side. In fact, some super-king mattresses are literally just that, with a growing number of couples opting for two different singles that zip together to form a super-king. This means each person can get the firmness that suits them. Some toppers have a removable washable cover, which will help keep it in the best condition much more easily. Some toppers can go straight in the machine as a whole. Having a friend apply pressure to the mattress or lie on the mattress while the pump is in operation will also help speed up the deflation process. No Pump? No Problem
