Would this make a soft mattress uncomfortable?...

I suppose it depends on what "comfortable" actually is. This particular topper is soft in comparison to a dense memory foam mattress. However, if you place it on top of a soft mattress, the "soft" aspect will definitely remain. This can be good or bad, depending on the sleeper's preference.

Possibly... It really depends on the person's sleeping preferences. For the sofa sleeper, this provides a soft, but pliable feel - really taking away the feeling of the springs and crossbar design of the sofa sleeper.

Yes, I agree that it feels firm, but not in a rock-hard way. You can feel it begin to conform to you. If you don't like firmness, try softening with a mattress pad that is lofty, or a pillow top, or a feather bed.

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.

No. The cushion is very firm and will not compress enough to make this position comfortable.

It is quite stiff. I put it under one of my beds. I suppose you could try it.

I've only owned it for about 9 months now, so I don't have a ton of experience with it yet, but the top lair as I'm sure you're aware is that tempature gel so it takes awhile before it contours to your body.My short answer is no, it doesn't soften. If you set your fingers on the side you can feel that its really soft below the temperature lair. I haven't tried but maybe you could take the cover off switch which side of the mattress you're sleeping on. Hope that helps.

No. It is too soft. It would bottom out. I am not happy with mine. I'm thinking that the next time I add to my review I will lower its rating to a 1. I turned the pad over and it already has low places forming on the new side. I would not recommend the purchase of this pad. I am still sleeping on mine. It is better than nothing on my firm mattress.

No I would not because the mattress is too soft.. It causes mine as well as my husband back to hurt. .If you are having back problems you should consider purchasing a firmer mattress. .

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 have never used it in a soft bed. I use it for support in a recliner. I have a hump from prednisone use so I suspect my use is different from most people. Sorry I can't be more help.

Hi Dan. it depends how thick your memory foam mattress is. if it is normal thick it should not be a problem. I have these thin Ikea mattresses (5 inch thick) and you can feel the slats under you... I need to put a set of special Ikea slats under my mattress so that it will be comfortable or double up on the thin mattress, then it is no problem. Hope this helps.

No.it is pretty good and doesn't squish much. Very comfortable to make a mattress.

Yes, it will somewhat be uncomfortable. It's not hard material but niether is it soft, I for one normally sleep on my sides or facing down but I gave up sleeping face down after purchasing this product. I am not saying you "can't", surely you can but while you move around in your sleep it will move a little around your face. I should have included this on my review..

it probably won't help you soften it. it will keep you warm, though. it's not very thick, it's not 1/8" but can't really measure it.

I think if you had a solid base, like a flora or a piece of plywood, it would probably work well for you, but if you had it on slats or weak box springs, I would worry that you could feel the bumps through the mattress.

Not very. I'm having major low-back problems when I wake up. I'm looking for a way to make it feel firmer or else I'll have to find a firmer one. Good luck!

We feel the mattress is quite firm. Recently a friend told me that it is suggested you break in this type of mattress by walking on it. This instruction did not come with our mattress but I think we may try it.
