Give your mattress an organic cotton upgrade

Questions and answers

Will a 2-inch topper fix a sagging mattress?

Only partly. Two inches of medium-firm latex adds support and pressure relief, but it will not hide deep dips or a worn-out core. It works best on a mattress that is still structurally sound but too soft.

Is it good for side sleepers?

Side sleepers who need soft cushioning at the shoulder and hip may find medium-firm latex too firm. Back and stomach sleepers, or side sleepers on an already-soft bed, tend to do better with it.

Does latex sleep hot?

Less hot than memory foam. Dunlop latex is open-celled and the organic cotton cover breathes, so heat moves through better than with a dense foam topper.

How does it compare with a memory foam topper?

Latex is bouncier, cooler and more durable, and it pushes back rather than contouring. Memory foam gives a slower, deeper sink and more pressure relief for some sleepers, but it traps heat and tends to break down sooner.

Will it stay in place on the mattress?

Latex has good grip against most mattress surfaces, but a 2-inch topper with no straps can still slide. A fitted sheet over both layers helps hold it.

What sizes does it come in?

Twin, Full Double, Queen, Eastern King and Cal King. Check your mattress size carefully, since Eastern King and Cal King are different dimensions.
