Why Add a Foam Topper?
A foam topper is a cushioned layer that sits on top of your mattress to make it softer, firmer, or just more comfortable. It's a quick and easy upgrade for tired beds that need a new lease on life.
Here’s what makes them a smart addition to your bed setup.
Pressure Relief & Spine Support – Medium-density foam toppers reduce hip and shoulder pressure by around 25 percent. That means less tossing and more sleeping.
Temperature Management – Memory foam toppers with gel or graphite infusion pull heat away from your body, perfect for humid Philippine nights.
Mattress Lifespan Extension – Adding a mattress foam topper protects your mattress from wear, spills, and sweat, which can delay costly replacements.
Cost Advantage – A topper costs only a fraction of what you'd pay for a new mattress. You get comfort and support without breaking the bank.
Easy Bed Upgrade – Just unroll and lay under your fitted sheet. It’s the fastest way to boost sleep quality without changing your whole bed setup.

Setup & Care Guide
Like any sleep essential, your mattress foam topper performs best when it is kept clean and properly supported.
Here’s how to set it up and maintain its quality.
Unroll & Air – Let your topper expand for 4 to 6 hours in a well-ventilated space. This helps restore its full shape and allows any slight factory scent to fade.
Anchor Corners – Choose a fitted sheet with deep pockets (at least 14 inches) or add elastic straps to prevent shifting through the night.
Rotate Quarterly – Rotate the topper every few months to distribute pressure evenly. This helps extend the lifespan of the comfort layer.
Spot-Clean Only – Gently clean surface stains using mild soap and water. Avoid soaking or using bleach to preserve the foam’s integrity.
Use a Breathable Protector – A lightweight, waterproof protector keeps sweat and spills out without trapping heat.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Foam Topper Fix a Sagging Mattress?
It can help if the sag is minor. A thick foam topper can add a supportive layer that reduces the feel of dips or uneven spots. However, if the mattress is severely worn or has broken springs, a topper may only provide temporary relief.
Is Memory Foam or Latex Better for Back Pain?
Memory foam toppers are excellent for providing pressure relief and promoting spine alignment. Latex feels firmer and adds bounce, which some people with back pain prefer.
Can I Use It on a Sofa-Bed or Pull-Out?
Yes, especially if your pull-out feels too firm or thin. Just check the folded height to make sure it still fits when closed.
