So I bought one of those "memory foam" mattress toppers yesterday

So I bought one of those "memory foam" mattress toppers yesterday ... but as soon as I got into bed I knew I was going to hate the thing. And then I slept for ten solid hours. :)

    The weirdest thing is changing positions after you've settled in ... at first, I almost felt trapped inside the foam.

    the main reason i have not tried it is worry about the heat in summer...

    I'd wondered about that, too, but the new designs claim to be "temperature neutral." I guess I'll find out next spring ...

    Susan Dennis I just got the one Costco sells ... Novaform brand, 2-1/2 inches thick. If you try one, I'd like to know what you think!

    Cool! One piece of advice: after you unseal the shrink-wrap it comes in, unfold it and lay it out on the balcony or somewhere for a few hours, so the "chemical" smell will dissipate before it goes in the bedroom. Not a big deal, but it did bug me some yesterday.

    The motel in Fort Benton has th' memory mattress covers too...I found it more restful than I'd ever imagined...'course, I'm always more relaxed there too...but sleep was noticeably better overall.

    It's just hard to visualize a rugged, backwoods fellow like you using any kind of mattress topper, much less one made of memory foam. ;-)

    Scott Murdock Hey, even us rugged, backwoods types like to be pampered once in a while. :-p

    Jennie Goff That's exactly how I felt at first, too. But after a couple of nights, now, I'm hooked on the thing.
