Dear All,

cost??

TIA

Having recently bought one, my answer would have to be "No". It seems
you pay an awful large premium for the Tempur name.

Having said that, my back problems are certainly easing as time passes,
but expect this benefit would have been the same for any of the cheaper
memory foam mattresses.

As Mary says, turning and moving around the bed is a sight to see -
think beached walrus - but mine is the thickest available mattress -
25cms and I am on the heavy side so I do sink a long way into it.

However, I used to be a hell of a fidget in bed, but now I'm hardly
aware of moving at all. I guess I only need to turn once or twice a
night, the mattress is so much more comfortable. Heat isn't a problem
for me.

I suspect that a topper would be unlikely to give such pronounced
benefits unless your existing bed is of exceptional quality.

Hope that helps.
