Apparently $179 + Tax is the cost of a good night sleep. We bought a premium quality king size mattress about a year ago and have never gotten a good nights rest on it. We tried a few different mattress toppers but none seem to help until this one. The first night with this topper I slept through the night which I haven't done in over a year. No more aches and pains, just a good nights sleep.

We bought a firm bed in a box 2 years ago and it was great for the 1st yr. Then it just went down from there. We could feel the middle support of the frame through the matress and it didnt matter what we did one of us always felt like we were sleeping on a slope. I have severe MS so it is hard for me to move in the bed and could never find a comfortable spot for more than a few minuets. So I am tossing and turning all night. I was worried about adding memory foam to our bed as it made it very hard to move when we tried it a few years back. But this topper is a wonderful. While the height added to the bed makes it harder to transfer from my wheelchair once I got situated I fell right to sleep and didn't move till the alarm went off. Not one single joint hurt or did my spine feel twisted out of shape as it has all week. It is very soft to the touch but adds the needed support. It is harder to get situated at first but well worth it in the end. I was able to lay on my back for several minuets, without the normal sever spine collapsing pain and able to get dressed in bed and roll over when I wanted to just as I did before the topper was added and no extra effort was needed.

I bought this as my mattress had sunken and begun to hurt my back. It perfectly provides support, but if you run hot when you sleep, you may consider a different material -- the memory foam (even with the fabric topper) traps body heat. This is especially apparent when sharing the bed with another person.

We went to PCB for vacation and had to ask the owner of our VRBO what her secret was to the most comfortable bed ever! She told us about this topper. Needless to say all 3 of our families immediately got on SAMS and had this pillow top mattress topper sent to our houses for when we returned home! I highly recommend this topper to anyone that likes a soft bed. However the owner told us it works best if you have a more firm mattress. We LOVE it and feel like we’re sleeping at a 5-star resort every night! A must buy! (:

I bought this because I bought a mattress in a box & it felt okay but I wanted to feel like i’m almost sinking in my bed, bought a featherbed before this and it went flat! So I decided to try this mattress pad read all the reviews and debated, finally bought it, I couldn’t love it more, my boyfriend came straight home and fell asleep within 5 mins! DEF BUY IF YOU WANT SOMETHING SOFT!!!

We bought this over a month ago. After just a few days of use, my husband and I both experienced greatly increased back pain. It is way too soft. No support at all. In addition, it slides all over the bed. I have to remove the bottom sheet and adjust it each time I make the bed. It's super heavy, so that is a very difficult task.

This product arrived very tightly wrapped and in two parts. As I laid in bed tonight, I wondered what I was smelling and thought maybe the pad was gassing out. But then I started having difficulty breathing and finally it occurred to me that I was smelling...MILDEW!! Really really strong mildew. I woke up my husband worried that prolonged exposure could prove harmful and we pulled / dragged the stinking behemoth off the bed. An hour later and I still couldn't take a breath without coughing. We only spent a few hours on it, but it was uncomfortable after about 30 minutes... I do not recommend purchasing this item.

I have been using the Serta 4 inch memory foam mattress topper for many years. I bought them for my sons dorm bed too. I am currently moving and will be leaving my king size bed with topper to my son and daughter in law (they are super happy) I’m downsizing to a queen sized mattress. The best thing about it is I know I don’t have to go spend a ton on a mattress because I have seen this Serta mattress topper turn the oldest, hardest mattress into a sleeping heaven!! They have saved me thousands of dollars on new mattresses, just by adding the Serta topper to the old mattress. I will never own a bed without this topper. Looking for a nice gift to give someone?? This mattress topper will last them for many years AND upgrade their old mattress tremendously!

I got this mattress topper for my back as my mattress is too firm. I’ve had two spine surgeries and was really looking forward to the contour from the memory foam. It was too much!! I couldn’t sleep on my sides because my legs kept going numb, I couldn’t sleep on my stomach and when I slept on my back, I felt like I was folding into the foam. Maybe i would’ve adjusted if I was able to give it more time..... but the foam topper had the most ungodly smell and it would not dissipate for anything! I would wake up in the morning and my clothes would reek of the smell. It didn’t even smell like plastic, like I was expecting it to, it smelled like an old mildewed basement.

Brought this home, laid it out, let it expand come bed time it was time to try it. Laid down and instantly wanted to return it. It was so far from what I was used to. After sleeping good that night I decided to give it another night. Come the second night my body was getting used to the new level of comfort. It was like a shock to my body but once my body got use to the support, I wouldn’t have it any other way. I can’t get enough of this thing. I don’t want to get out of bed. My son absolutely loves it as well. He wants one for his room. I’m a 175lb make 5,”9. Point it, give it a few nights before you make decision your body will thank you. As far as heat, I don’t find this unit keeps my body any warmer than my regular mattress. This is a big deal for me as I couldn’t deal with being hit at night. I think the gel as well as the 1” foam topper helps with that. Happy I spent the extra money and got a Reliable brand.
