Best Giselle Bedding Mattress Toppers & Protectors

I bought this mattress topper to go on a Koala foam mattress that was set to medium but was far too firm. I bought it from Kmart (online) but there… Read more

are other sellers out there, I just went with them because they were cheapest.

PROS: - Its latex. It looks, acts and feels like pure latex.

- It is marketed as 7.5cm and it measures at 7.2ishcm

- It arrived pretty quickly rolled up in a nice neat box. Unrolled easily and was immediately ready to go.

- It has no smell straight out of the box and I could sleep on it that night (unlike the bed it went on)

-It breathes really nicely. I am a hot sleeper even in 18c aircon but I don't overheat on this topper at all.

- It comes in a removable meshy style cover, so you don't actually touch the latex itself. The listing says that cover is anti-bacterial and anti- dust mite as well, but not sure how that works. It looks to be a basic polyester mesh.

-Includes a 7-zone comfort zone that comprises thousands of vent holes that provide multiple degrees of firm and soft support to suit your body shape.

-Its heavy but not too heavy having said that, I got a single bed size.

- Although I bought a single size, it is on a king single mattress and surprisingly, it still fits and covers all the length just fine, its just a smidge skinny but that's really not an issue.

-It was reasonably priced at $175. Elsewhere the same topper costs at least $200 or more.

- Comes with a 1 Year warranty.

- Distributes weight evenly when you lay on it, there are absolutely no pressure points anywhere and you sink down into it without feeling like you're sleeping on a pillow top that will flatten out after a few months.

CONS: - The bag/cover the topper is in is not cotton. I wish it were some sort of natural fibre. The cover is removeable for washing, but I do wish it were cotton. For both breatheability, longevity and planet reasons.

- Latex can be heavy in the larger sizes but that isn't really a fault of the material. It is however something that should be taken into consideration if you are frail or unable to lift/manipulate heavy beds for things like sheet changes etc.
