I got a dormeo mattress topper about a month ago, that opened my eyes to the possibility of living with less back and hip pain, after a month of hardcore research i pulled the trigger and got this to go on my new small double bed and I've not woke up with a throbbing hip since, I'm not saying I'm cured (i wish) but quality of life is 10x better sleeping on the correct mattress, the people saying it's softer upside down or etc obviously expected a cloud like experience, this is for people who know what a bad back is and need a premium mattress, but even better still, it's a quarter of the price of the big named brands.
