I was telling a friend/coworker that my new mattress was far too firm. She recommended this specific mattress topper to me because she and her husband had purchased one and loves it. I must say that this is an excellent mattress topper, with excellent quality for the price. This is something I would strongly recommend to anyone. I told my friend who recommended it to me that every night it feels like I'm sleeping on a cloud; in other words, my bed is very cozy and I sleep very well. This mattress topper has made a huge difference in my life.
