Can I put this topper under my foam mattress to make it firmer?

It's so firm on it's own that it might not need one on top. It's very thick and very firm. I'm 155lbs and it's very stiff.

I don't see why not. This topper is very, very firm and should support a foam mattress. Remember to lay this mattress out across some chairs, saw horses, or something similar for the shape to return. Try to position it so air can reach both sides. 48 hours is ideal. If you want the best mattress ever, buy the 5" extra-firm and buy the 3" firm to put on top. Heaven!!!

I do not know how placing this foam under your mattress will work for you. If your mattress is soft then it will still be soft if you place it on a piece of plywood. This foam will prevent a soft mattress from bottoming out on a hard surface. This foam is great for a mattress on it's own.

This isnt a bendy kind of foam this is more of firm foam. I think this mattress would be to big as a topper.

I can't make any promises, Patricia. In the case of my own mattress it didn't appear to be sagging, but I could feel it when I would lay down on it. If your side is sunk in as you say, this memory foam topper may not give you all the support that you need. It might make it somewhat better, but then again it might not provide all the improvement that you need. You might be better off applying the cost of the topper towards a new mattress.

I bought a mattress cover (just a cheap one) at walmart just to save it from getting dirty. It worked well. Mine was a little padded and I think it help firm up the topper. I love it actually.

Maureen, I'm assuming you can put a thin topper on the mattress. I have no need to, but if you want one I don't see why not. Maybe this question is better aimed to the folks at tempurpedic, as they could give you a more direct answer. I am happy with the comfort I received when I switched from the traditional spring to the tempurpedic brand.

In our case, YES, this did help! We recently purchased a Beautyrest Recharge Ultra King mattress. Not only was it too firm, but it was HOT. This topper is awesome. I love it! Would love to hear your opinion if you decide to purchase.

I put a mattress pad on it. It will keep the foam clean longer. I suppose you wouldn't have to. But I do

John, my guess is not. The foam mattress will bend to the contour of your foam mattress and you will end up with a deeper sag. Have you flipped the mattress? To be sure, I would call or stop in a mattress store and ask for their thoughts. Good luck. David

Depends on what you want to accomplish. I put mine under my mattress because I wanted it for height. However if you need it to make mattress then I would put it on top of. I would tho put a mattress pad over the foam. Good luck

I would think it would certainly add quite a bit of softness. However, it feels like jell foam pockets and it probably wouldn't fill up where it dips down and make it level. It would have to be an improvement as it was a big improvement on an old mattress.

No you cant! Plus its very thin, and not well padded!You will need a mattress pad for underneath!

I had just bought my son an actual foam mattress and it was a bit on the firm side, so I bought this to soften it and it helped a great deal.

This mattress pad is fine quality & made in America; I would recommend it to anyone. As for using over a foam topper I would think it would secure the foam and make it feel like part of the mattress; should work well.

I suppose you can. It is pretty thick and I would even call it firm. It's I'd about an inch thick. However I feel if used as a seat (daily use) it will become flat. Hope this helps :) u use it for drying sugar flowers for my cakes.

I rather doubt it, this topper is not very soft. It is softer than the very hard mattress I put it onto, but the base is not a memory foam mattress, just a normal hard mattress. It helped a little bit, but I felt it was still just a bit on the firm side. Hope that helps.

Are you speaking of a Pillow Top mattress or a Pillow Top mattress topper? If you are speaking of a pillow top mattress topper, then yes it would add firmness to your topper. However, keep in mind this memory foam will mold to your body and is "activated" by body heat and once you lay on it, it starts to take instant mold to the pressure placed on it. It molds to your body. I really don't see the use for a pillow topper with this memory foam, unless you just need that added softness.

It is firmer than a memory foam topper. I bought a used camper and wanted a new mattress and have sleep well on it.
