All about types of mattress topper
A mattress topper is a must for everyone who has a mattress, especially if it is orthopedic. Why is there such a need for it?
The thing is that the mattress topper is able not only to extend the life of the mattress, but also to make the sleeping surface more comfortable and suitable for sound and healthy sleep.
Consider the main types of mattress toppers that can be found in stores.
Thin
The most common type. As a rule, such mattress covers are used to protect against negative influences. They usually do not have additional "functions".
It is worth noting that they are inexpensive and therefore popular.
Thick
Their second name is toppers. Outwardly, they resemble an ordinary mattress due to their filling inside. Such a mattress topper will not protect against moisture or dust, but will make the surface of the bed more "regular" - it can often be "crooked". It is also used to improve sleep, taking into account all the characteristics of a person.
Classic
As a rule, everyone has such a mattress topper. It is simple, made in one layer, but extremely durable. It looks like a sheet, but this type of mattress topper has elastic bands in both the corners and the entire perimeter. Most often you can see such a mattress topper, made from natural fabrics.
Antibacterial
This type of mattress covers is distinguished by its material used in the manufacture of this item for the mattress. Before sewing the mattress topper, as a rule, it undergoes an impregnation procedure with antibacterial and hypoallergenic solutions.
This process increases the final cost of the mattress topper, but at the same time the user receives a mattress in which there will be no mites, no bacteria, or anything else that can cause allergies and diseases.
Orthopedic
Such a mattress topper, interestingly, can greatly improve the comfort of a regular mattress. True, there are quite a few factors responsible for this. And first of all, it is worth highlighting the filler. The material chosen for filling the mattress topper can directly affect the hardness.
- If you need not only to soften the surface, but also to smooth out irregularities, even if they are insignificant, you should choose mattress toppers filled with polyurethane foam, holofiber, latex or low density "Memory" foam.
- If you need to soften the surface and smooth out more serious irregularities of the mattress, a mattress topper with sisal or coir filling, as well as high density PU foam, latex and high density memory foam will be the ideal choice for you.
Advice! Futons, which are multi-layer orthopedic mattresses, are better suited for heavily uneven mattresses.
Waterproof
This type of mattress topper has earned its popularity because the hydrophobic coating allows you to protect the mattress from problems often created by children and other circumstances beyond the control of people.
For quite some time there has been a debate as to whether this type of mattress has a low air permeability. However, there is only one correct answer - no. Why is it so? It's all about the design of the "cover". The top layer is a natural or artificial fabric that will be pleasant to the touch. It will most likely let moisture inside. The main thing is that the material itself is able to remove moisture and at the same time not reduce the permeability of air to the inside of the mattress due to the membrane coating.
In general, if you are afraid to get your mattress dirty or wet, you should just buy a waterproof mattress topper, with which the mattress will be protected not only from tea and coffee, but also other liquids spilled on it.
About materials used as a filler for the mattress topper
Consider all the materials known to date that are used as a filler for a mattress topper.
Artificial materials
- Holofiber... One of the most popular artificial filling materials. It is a bulky, wear-resistant and durable material. In general, it would be quite right to decide to take a mattress topper with this filler.
- Structofiber... Denser than holofiber, tougher than it. Smoothes out bumps of a medium type. Softens a hard and hardens a soft bed. It can contain many of the materials listed below, which can affect the final hardness of the mattress topper.
- Polyurethane foam. Almost the same as foam rubber, only more modern and "cooler". It is considered a fairly affordable and elastic material that can make the mattress more comfortable to lie in it.
- Foam "Memori"... Premium grade artificial filler as it can be anatomically shaped. In addition, it has a kind of "memory". Adjusting to the parameters of the person lying on it makes sleep much more pleasant and easier. This material is especially suitable for those who suffer from various diseases.
Natural materials
- Latex... It can be briefly expressed with three nouns - versatility, durability and safety. With latex, you don't have to worry about the mattress being too hard - the material will soften it. In addition, the material is quite strong and resistant to various deformations, as well as high loads.
- Wool... Quite a popular material that has not only warming properties, but also healing properties. Suffice it to recall the belt made of dog hair. In this case, the mattress topper will act in a similar way. However, there is one "but" in relation to this material - it is not suitable for those who are allergic to wool.
- Bamboo... Unusual and at the same time soft filler, somewhat reminiscent of the sensations of cotton wool. It is obtained by combing out the fibers found in bamboo pulp. For the price, the material is not cheap, but it is quite high quality.
- Coyra... An equally unusual material derived from coconut fibers. A mattress topper with such a filler is able to "breathe", can regulate the temperature of a lying person, and is also not able to absorb moisture, which means it will not rot. However, coir filler is a tough type that not everyone will appreciate. And it is simply impossible to roll up a "cover" with such a filler for more convenient storage.
- Silk... The best option for allergy sufferers. The reason is in the composition of silk fibers. Everyone knows that silk is 97% protein, and the protein itself is not the best place to breed allergens, ticks and other misfortunes. That's why allergy sufferers love it. What's more interesting - it is loved by those who have increased sweating.
- Pooh.Of course, no market for modern mattress covers can do without fluff. All down mattress covers are completely different from their previously popular downy “brothers”. The high quality of the material and the properties with such a natural filling make the down mattress topper an ideal choice. However, there is one "but" - the prices for high-quality "covers" for a mattress are quite high today, so not everyone can afford such a mattress topper.
About the types of attachment of the mattress topper
One of the points that deserve attention when choosing a mattress topper is its attachment.
Each "cover" must at least somehow be attached to the mattress. And today there are as many as three options for attaching the mattress topper.
All of them are in the table below.
| Mount type | Description |
|---|---|
| Elastic bands in the corners | The simplest mounting option, which is not without a drawback in the form of the need to timely replace the rubber with a new one, since over time they deteriorate greatly. |
| Elastic bands around the perimeter | Fasteners are on the sides of the "cover", which makes its attachment to the mattress more reliable. |
| Zipper on the case | With this attachment, the mattress is provided with “all-round” protection. But it will be difficult to put on a mattress topper with such an attachment. |
Outcomes
The mattress topper is a really necessary thing. It can be extremely comfortable and can greatly improve the quality of a person's sleep. In addition, with a mattress topper, you can significantly extend the life of the mattress and protect it not only from moisture, but also bacteria, as well as fungi and other microorganisms.
True, many nuances must be taken into account, without which the choice cannot be made. But having appreciated the available options, everyone will be able to choose for themselves exactly the option that will make the bed more comfortable and more pleasant to sleep.
