Review on Milliard 2 Inch Ventilated Memory Mattress by Monica Bailey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good fit and softness for my hard mattress

My wife doesn't like a mattress topper at all and I've given up trying to find something that fits both of us so I just went with something I like and cut it in half. I wanted something that would fill in the gaps in my body rather than create a completely different mattress on top of my mattress. I've been looking for the 1" but for some reason there aren't many. I'm 5'9, 180lbs, they say the taller you are the fatter you should get. I used to have a 2" Used flat topper which I liked although the flat did feel a bit stiff at times during the cold months before warming it up.I figured a 2" egg crate lid would give me some of that lovely memory foam. but doesn't take all the firmness out of my mattress What I liked: - the eggcrate style feels more natural than flat foam, - vents, I can't tell from the photo but there are holes, I have no idea if they really do anything other than feel good. Good density, doesn't feel brittle like a lower density, probably made just over 3 lb.. Sounds weird but there are some pretty crappy stained foam topper out there. - Reasonable anfa smell. In the beginning they all smell, this one wasn't bad and after a day it was hardly noticeable. How did I use it if my wife doesn't like it? We have a queen size mattress so I bought a queen size, took a sharp knife and cut it in half, but instead of making a 90 degree cut I cut it at an angle to make it one to make small ramp. wasn't the straightest cut in the world, but the idea worked, and it's not as awkward as you might think to have half the bed with foam and the other half without. We snuggle up to each other and this method didn't affect our snuggle time. UPDATE: My wife asked me to put the other half back! It's been months since she decided to give it a try and she's never looked back. Glad I saved the other half! I can also say that despite sleeping on my side, I haven't had back pain from sleeping in quite a while.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Bad mattress topper
