Mattress Topper Buying Guide

We like to make sure you're spoilt for choice, which is why we supply a large range of topper fillings for you to choose from:

• Feather & down - Our range includes both duck and goose feather & down, and firmer feather-only toppers.

• Synthetic - Choose from microfibre, hollowfibre or memory foam.

• Natural -  Made with pure wool.

A feather-only topper is supportive but less insulating due to the absence of down, so they're better if you want the comfort of feather without extra warmth. Feather & down toppers are perfect for colder sleepers, homes and weather. They're incredibly insulating and feel wonderfully light because of the way the clusters of down trap air to keep you warm without unnecessary bulk.

Synthetic fill toppers are made from very fine polyester fibres resulting in a practical and more purse-friendly choice. They're easy to care for and an affordable alternative to other mattress topper fills. Our synthetic toppers use hollowfibre and microfibre to add support or softness. Hollowfibre is very much like wool, its springiness adds loft and support, whereas microfibre is soft and silky and mimics the sensation of silk and down. 

Synthetic toppers are also a good choice for allergy sufferers as they're easy to wash and dry, making life that bit easier. Memory foam toppers are supportive and adjust to the contours of your body for an almost weightless sensation as you sleep.

Natural fill toppers are breathable and are perfect if you struggle to stay at the right temperature in bed. Their amazing temperature-regulating properties help wick away excess moisture to keep you feeling comfortable all night long. Natural fill toppers work well all year round because they help you stay cool in warmer weather and keep you cosy in winter. They're also a practical choice. As they're thinner and more compact than the lofty synthetic and feather & down mattress toppers they can be stored more easily. They can also be machine washed and tumble dried.

What firmness do we offer for our mattress toppers?

Take your pick! We stock soft, medium and firm toppers.

What are the benefits of a firm mattress topper?

Firm mattress toppers provide the most support to your body and also help add structure to a mattress that feels too soft. If you're prone to aches and pains, you may find a firm topper helps improve your sleeping position and alleviates some discomfort. We offer a range of firm toppers including memory foam, pure feather and microfibre.

Our favourites? We couldn't agree - one half of the office loves our Ultimate Microfibre with Silk topper, but the memory foam fans among us recommend the Classic Memory Foam topper.

What are the benefits of a medium mattress topper?

Not too soft, and not too firm, a medium topper is a good all-rounder. It adds a balance of comfort and support. You'll experience some "give" in the fill as you sleep on it. Our duck down dual-chamber topper is a great all-round medium firmness topper.

What are the benefits of a soft mattress topper?

A soft topper adds a cosy, squidgy layer to your bed. They're a good option if you find your mattress too firm. Soft toppers add the most comfort to a mattress and sleeping on them feels cloud-like as the fill "gives" in response to your body. Because of this, a soft topper may not be your best option if you're prone to overheating in bed.

Are all mattress toppers deep?

Not all toppers are deep, it's best to focus on your specific needs from your topper first. Toppers are best at adding support to a mattress or making it cosier by adding more comfort. Equally the right choice can help to regulate the temperature of your bed or add extra insulation for cold sleepers, a cold house or room.

Our toppers vary in depth, from a slimline 4cm to a super-plush 7cm. The deeper the topper the greater the level of comfort and/or support you will experience. Take a look at individual product pages for more information on particular toppers.

How does a mattress topper attach to the bed?

Most of our mattress toppers attach to the mattress with sturdy elastic straps.

Our memory foam topper is different and doesn't have elastic straps. Instead, there is a textured finish to the underside of the topper that grips the mattress fabric to stay in place.

What is the benefit of a wool mattress topper?

Struggle to find the right temperature in bed? Then you need a wool topper.

Wool is a natural temperature regulator, helping keep you warm in winter and cool in summer. It does this by absorbing and releasing moisture into the atmosphere so you'll always feel just right. Would you believe that it absorbs more water than cotton! It's the topper filling we recommend for bed sharers who can't agree on the right temperature. It's such a good temperature regulator it adapts to two different body temperatures in the same bed. It's also perfect if you're prone to hot flushes or you get too hot in bed.

What is the benefit of a feather and down mattress topper?

Looking for luxury and support? Then feather and down is the topper for you.

Working together, feather and down are the original dream team. Feathers give the topper strength and structure, they create the firm base layer that supports your body. The down adds softness and warmth for the squidgy, soft layer to nestle into for a dreamy night's sleep.

What is fill power & fill weight?

Fill power is a measure of how well the down in your topper recovers its fullness. A high fill power rating is an excellent indication of the level of quality and size of the down. Down with a high fill power is loftier, more insulative and recovers its fullness more easily, it will also last longer than lower fill power down if looked after well.

Are our feather and down mattress toppers ethically sourced?

We believe a good night's sleep shouldn't involve cruelty to animals.

We source all our feather and down products from suppliers who follow industry recognised traceability standards. Our duck feather and down products are Downpass certified and our goose feather and down is certified by the Responsible Down Standard.

Be assured that all feather and down in our products is a by-product of the food industry and will never originate from suppliers who engage in or condone live-plucking, intensive rearing, force-feeding or other forms of animal mistreatment.

For more information, visit www.downpass.com and www.responsibledown.org.

What is the benefit of a microfibre/hollowfibre mattress topper?

Hollowfibre is denser than microfibre and has a full, springy feeling that creates a lovely puffy topper. It's also very affordable, making it a great-value topper filling. Microfibre is finer than hollowfibre and feels different according to the way it's used in the topper. It's typically softly supportive with a lovely squishy feeling. Some premium microfibre is so soft it can be used as a realistic substitute for down in synthetic toppers. Microfibre is more expensive than hollowfibre, but is still more affordable than good quality down.

Both microfibre and hollowfibre are machine washable, making them very easy to care for and a good choice for allergy sufferers.

Which mattress topper should you use for each season?

Spring/Summer

Unpredictability is the name of the game in spring. Don't second-guess the weather and prepare for all eventualities with a wool-fill topper. The temperature-regulating properties of wool will keep you cosy on those nippy nights and help you stay cool and fresh on any surprisingly warm evenings. Prefer a synthetic alternative? Then how about our Ultimate Microfibre topper for a firm topper with a luxurious layer of silk to support your sleeping body and help wick away excess moisture for a cooler night's sleep.

Autumn 

Depending on where you live, the weather can be difficult to judge in autumn. Mild autumn nights can come as quite a surprise, so  the temperature-regulating properties of a wool-fill topper helps take the guesswork out of bedtime comfort. If chillier autumn evenings are more likely, then plump for a feather and down fill topper. You'll feel snug and cosy on even the most miserable of November nights.

Winter

Chilly winter nights mean anything goes but you are most likely to be looking for extra insulation, in which case head towards feather and down-rich toppers.

If your home is warm, then a super-snug bed may be overkill. A wool topper will help regulate your body temperature as you sleep. Be guided by your preferences and enjoy the extra comfort you'll get as you snuggle into bed.

Which mattress topper fillings are anti-allergenic?

Allergies can make life miserable, so make sure your topper doesn't aggravate your symptoms. Choose toppers with washable synthetic fills or naturally hypoallergenic fills. Memory foam and synthetic toppers are easy to keep clean, helping keep allergy-causing nasties at bay. Wool is also a great choice as it's naturally hypoallergenic and washable.

Which mattress topper filling should you get if you share a bed?

Bed sharers can sometimes find things a little heated. After all, with two bodies in the same small space, it's only natural your bed may feel too warm. Or you might find you can never agree if it's too hot or too cold, with one feeling like a hot water bottle and the other a block of ice. Adding a wool topper to your bed will help make bedtimes much more comfortable. Wool is naturally temperature regulating as it absorbs and releases moisture in the immediate environment meaning you'll always feel just right. It's such a good temperature regulator that it adapts to two different body temperatures in the same bed, for a more harmonious bedtime.
