Is a 6-inch mattress thick enough for an adult?

For lighter adults and back or stomach sleepers, yes. Heavier adults and side sleepers usually want 8 inches or more for pressure relief.

Does it work on a bunk bed?

Yes. The low profile keeps sleepers below the guardrail on most bunk and loft beds, which is the main reason to pick it.

It is on the firm side of medium. Side sleepers may feel pressure at the shoulder and hip and often prefer a softer topper.

No. It works on a slatted frame, platform bed or bunk base. Use closely spaced slats or a solid base for even support.

New memory foam often has a mild smell. Air it out flat for a day or two before making the bed.

No. The memory foam layer sits on top, so rotate it head to foot instead of flipping it.
