Remember seeing all the memory foam ads with the handprint and the hand just above the print? Remember how they showed the print in the foam, how it takes a while for the print to disappear? Well, you won't get that with this pad.

I've done my research now, and turns out the density matters, yet most cheap ones don't advertise their density because it's low (higher density = better foam = more expensive). I believe someone estimated this pad's density at about 2 pounds/square foot. Premium quality is about 5 lb/sq ft. This low density pad won't keep your hand print, instantly returns to its shape as you pull of your hand. In fact, it is literally impossible under normal conditions to make a photograph with this foam topper like you see with other foam ads... its just too low quality. So yeah, the price is great, and yeah, if you want a bit of padding, it might do for you. But for me, on my ultra-firm (read: too firm) mattress, I wanted to soften it up with this, and the result was my entire ribcage hurt after an 8 hour sleep.


I tend to sleep on my stomach, but I toss and turn, so sometimes on my side, sometimes on my back. The other night, sleeping on my side, just the side I slept on, my ribcage on that side, ached all day. I had to by Tylenol to compensate for the new pad. I'm better off without the pad, so I'll be returning. I argue it isn't what you'd expect from memory foam, especially if you've sat in memory foam beds in the store, where they use premium foam of 5 lb/sq ft. Buyer beware!

Side note: I experienced very low smell, and it instantly expanded for full Queen size for me. I let it air out in my room with window open all day before putting it on the bed, underneath a waterproof mattress pad. I did flip it midway through the day when I was airing it out, but I just laid it on my bed to air out. I had no problems with odor or expansion.

One important thing that people need in their life aside from food, air and water is sleep. Getting a good night sleep is very important to each people because this is one way of gaining back their energy after working all day

It is nice to know that after a hard work in your office you'll go home with a warm comfortable bed. So choosing the right mattress for your bed is very important, some does not mind the price as long as the quality and comfort the mattress gives suit them.

Mattresses have many sizes one of this is the queen size mattress. A queen size memory foam mattress is approximately 80 inches long and 60 inches wide. It is 5 inches longer and 6 inches wider compared to a full sized mattress. This mattress is usually good for close quarters couples or a single that sprawls around the bed when he/ she sleep.


If you want to get yourself a queen size memory foam mattress for your bed then here are some tips and advice for you.


1. Bed Frame

You cannot simply place your queen size mattress on any bed frame you may have at home because it might not fit. If you have a standard sized double bed, your queen size mattress might be too big for the bed frame. You should check the size carefully before making purchase so as not to face the problem of having a mattress that does not fit your old bed frame. Ideally, your mattress should rest on a box set which is not only inexpensive but it provides you with the necessary foundation as well.

2. Mattress Make

Where the make of the mattress is concerned, it can be made of innerspring, memory foam or latex. What material you choose depend largely on your personal preference but a typical memory foam mattress can generally last for around 25 years or so. However, that is also dependent on whether you take good care of the mattress.
It will benefit you to learn that there are many options available when you are considering the bed sets, such as waterbeds, foam mattresses, airbeds, futons and adjustable beds, etc.

3. Budget 

A queen size memory foam mattress will cost you between $300 to $1500 and the higher the quality is, the more it is going to cost you of course. Therefore, you need to set a budget first so that you can spend within your means.

4. Warranty 

Since the mattress costs you a great deal of money, it usually comes with a warranty so before making your purchase, you should find out how long the warranty is and what areas does it cover. A queen size memory foam mattress of high quality is expected to last you over 10 years and thus should come with a 10-year warranty.
