What size mattress topper should I get for a single bed?

Single bed toppers measure 90cm x 190cm (3ft 0" x 6ft 3"). A single bed is sometimes referred to in other countries as a 'twin bed'. In the UK, a twin bed is used to describe two beds in the same room and doesn't necessarily refer to the size of that bed, so do check before buying your single bed topper. If you’re still not sure, our size guide has all the information you need.

Can a mattress topper help an old mattress?

As brilliant as mattress toppers are, they won’t fix an old mattress. If your single mattress is sagging in the middle, has broken springs or is otherwise past its best, it’s better to invest in a new mattress.

However, mattress toppers are fantastic at improving otherwise lacklustre mattresses. So, if you’ve bought a new single mattress but want more support or softness, then a single mattress topper will help you improve things for far less money that it would cost to buy a new mattress. This makes single mattress toppers a great choice for guest rooms – give your guests a hotel experience without splashing out!

How do I choose which mattress topper I should buy for my single bed?

When deciding which mattress topper to buy for a single bed mattress, you should think about what you want your topper to add to your bed. If extra support is important to you, then a single memory foam mattress topper could be the perfect choice as it provides the adaptive comfort that memory foam is known for. If you'd like additional warmth without the worry of overheating, a down-filled single mattress topper is ideal. These combine super-insulative goose down with supportive feathers for a breathable and cosy layer of additional support. For a cost-effective way to add comfort to your single bed mattress, a synthetic single bed mattress topper is a great option, giving you extra comfort, support and warmth at a great value price.
