Just received this product yesterday. After reading all the great reviews, I decided to pull the trigger on this mattress topper versus others I was researching. Add to the fact that this has exceptional density to thickness ratio compared to other similar products on the market at a lower price point, this was a no-brainer. Further, the shipping was reasonably fast and not to mention FREE. I read from a number of customers that this mattress topper has a noticeable chemical scent to it. So as soon as I received it, I unpacked it from the box and aired it out and sprayed a little Febreze on it, which helped to some degree. I thought it smelled much better but my GF could still smell it. Honestly, it's not that bad and will dissipate over time. This is the only reason why I gave this product 4 stars and not 5. The manufacturer can do a post-manufacturing treatment of sorts to alleviate the smell... I just don't see why not?
Anyway, but let's be honest, it's all about how it feels to sleep on? Right? Well let me tell you... I have a 10+ year old pillow top mattress that was in desperate need of revitalization. The other option was to go spend a lot of money and buy a new mattress. Since money is a little tight at the moment, the best option was to get a good quality topper. First off, I am one happy customer, this topper really works! My GF and I agree that we had a better night of sleep, especially sleeping on our backs with the added support. I read one customer in the reviews here that mentioned it was too soft. I guess that it might feel that way if your mattress is very firm to begin with. Well my mattress, being a 10+ old pillow top, is the opposite and very soft. This topper, in my opinion, added a little more firmness while giving that unique "memory foam" support feeling. Overall, I'm happy with this topper and recommend it. I'm really inexperienced in memory foam technology so I just hope it stays in good shape for a substantial amount of years.
