About five years ago, when our Simmons Beautyrest (plush) mattress started to develop body indentions (after only 3 years of ownership and plenty of mattress rotating/flipping) we bought a 1.25" (unknown density) memory foam topper for about $50 when memory foam toppers first started becoming popular. It really seemed to help make our mattress more comfortable. Then after about 3 years we felt like our topper no longer felt as firm and resilient so we "upgraded" to a 2" toppper (unknown density) for about $75. The 2" topper actually seemed more uncomfortable than the 1.25" topper since it had more give and halfway through the night you found yourself sleeping in a crater (just like our mattress was without a topper). Plus the 2" topper was much "hotter" to sleep on then the 1.25". We ended up swapping back to the original 1.25" topper and put the 2" to use in the guest room.

My wife and I are very pleased with this mattress topper. Is feels quite soft but does have some support. We put this on top of a relatively firm tempur-pedic mattress. Some very expensive tempur-pedic mattresses merely add a memory foam to the top. We accomplished the same thing by adding this foam pad. The long review above mine is fairly good, but I do not know why the reviewer did not give a 5 star since this pad was superior to the rest. Given the high price of tempur-pedic, this is a very low cost way of achieving the same enhancement as would be achieved using the high priced tempur-pedic beds. The foam is dense yet soft. It is a fine product.
