Comfort foam topper

Comfort foam toppers are made of PUR foam. They have a high restoring force and differ in the material properties of cold foam toppers. The strength and uniformity is less determinable than with molded foam, whereby the elasticity is lower. Since the comfort foam has an open-pore structure, toppers made of comfort foam can also deal well with high humidity and are also breathable. Toppers help with protection and care of mattresses, or sofa beds. As a rule, these toppers are quilted and can be machine washed. The mattressstays clean and is spared. The bedis one of the most important pieces of furniture. That is why comfort foam toppers are available almost everywhere, and also in different designs and in all price categories. Of course, such a topper not only provides extra protection, but also to increase the comfort while lying down. However, care must be taken to ensure that the mattress is compatible with the comfort foam topper and what effect is to be achieved. A comfort foam topper is no substitute for a new mattress if it causes old problems. For example, it is only possible in special cases to make a mattress that is too soft with the help of a comfort foam topper stronger. Of course, it depends on the type of topper. For example, a 8cm Latex Topper is softer than a 5cm Visco Topper. Since a topper should provide more comfort and relief, it should be at least 6cm and no more than 12cm high.

For which mattresses is a comfort foam topper suitable

Only ten percent of all mattresses can, or should, be used with a topper. The biggest problem with ninety percent of the mattresses lies in the then lack of ventilation. If a foam pad is placed on the mattress, this can no longer provide for a good climate compensation. The breathability is lost. Mattresses that have a breathable 3D fabric, instead of the normal quilted mattress cover, are best suited for comfort foam toppers, because here no moisture can accumulate in relation. In addition, attention must be paid to the quality of the topper, otherwise, after a short time already foxing can be seen. A comfort foam topper should never be placed on a cold foam mattress. That brings only disadvantages. On the one hand the ventilation is missing, on the other hand comfort foam toppers are unsuitable for cold foam mattresses, because the ergonomic lying is negatively influenced. The zoning of the foam core in cold foam mattresses loses its effect through a topper. Pocket spring mattresses are better for toppers. The functionality of these mattresses is designed for the use of comfort foam toppers. Which topper is best suited for your own mattress can best be determined by a knowledgeable consultant in a specialist shop. This can make a recommendation, as long as he knows how the mattress is constructed, so what mattress it is. But it does not only depend on the mattress, which topper is the right one, but also on the desired lying result. Whether a latex, gel, cold foam, or viscose foam topper is suitable can be best judged by a specialist. Since many refrain from this advice, eight out of ten purchased toppers do not bring the hoped-for success. So get some advice before deciding on a topper.
