Serta Memory Foam 3-inch Mattress Topper

Rating

I purchased this topper after having bought a brand new mattress that I hated and couldn't return! The first mattress I bought was too soft and I was allowed one exchange. I *thought* I was choosing carefully, but the mattress ended up being way too hard. I gave it some time so my body would adjust, but nothing. I was not sleeping at all, in pain, frustrated to the point of tears....and left feeling like I had just thrown $1,100 away. I bought this topper and it completely saved me!! I read the great reviews, but did not expect it to make this much of a difference. I took it out of the box and let it unfold on it's own as it says on the instructions. I let it air out like that in a sparebedroom for about 2 days. The smell went away soon enough. It fits perfectly on my queen bed and now.....I actually love my bed!!!! Also, I had mentioned the purchase to a friend of mine and he said he had also bought it sometime ago from Overstock and swears by it! Also, bought one for his parents.

I had been wanting to buy one of these mattresses for a long time but would only do so when I found one for approximately $100 and at least 3 inches thick. We got this, it arrived in a timely manner and weighs more than you think (lift with your knees). Once opened, it needed to be aired out as it is rather smelly but just letting it breathe for a few hours did the trick. We noticed that it arrived with a couple of nicks (sp?) in it but they were small, so we didn't bother making a big deal over it as a sheet would be on top of it anyway. Well, we loved it for the first 3 weeks before the foam started softening up where our body naturally lies each night. I love the mattress but my husband doesn't nor does he get a good night sleep like i do. The topper is now waiting to be given away. If either you or your partner like firm mattresses, don't bother wasting your money on this, however, if you are like me, and like softer mattresses, you WILL love this and the quality is pretty good

I didn't realize that the mattress on the guest bed really wasn't that comfortable (never was - not that old) until I decided to test it. Priced new mattresses and decided that a topper was the way to go. I already knew that the foam had to be at least 3" think to mean anything and I knew about density. This wasn't a task for store to store shopping; company was on the way the next weekend. Zipped over to the Overstock.com website and did a bit of searching and there it was. The right thickness and good density. The shipping speed was AWESOME! These pads need time to unroll ON THEIR OWN. And a bit of time to air. You have to have a mattress cover which is deep enough to accommodate both the foam topper (this is really a bit more than a topper) and the mattress. (Ordered that from Overstock.com as well) I placed the pad on top of the mattress and let it do its thing. The next day it had completely unrolled and I was able to make the bed. Lay down and was amazed. It wasn't the same mattress. Be advised, without a cover which some do come with for quite a bit more $$$, it isn't a pretty sight. Since you're going to want a cover anyway, it really doesn't matter. This 3" memory foam topper/pad is fantastic. I stopped writing in order to lie down on it just for the sake of this review (Ah, the sacrifices we make) and it felt even better for my spine/neck than I remembered. And yes, my guests did appreciate the new feel - they'd slept on the bed before. I already know that I will have several good years for the guest bed now. An excellent value!

I had a memory foam mattress topper before but it was 5 yrs.old and it was time it needed to be replaced. My old memory foam topper was definitely not as good of quality as the Serta Memory Foam 3-inch Mattress Topper. I had shopped around before making this purchase and found that this was an excellent buy. I would recommend this to anyone! It is like sleeping on a cloud and will automatically allow you to get a much better night's sleep. Overstock rocks!
