good price on a combo deal. mattress pads are great, pillows are below par for a final rating of good.

I have a very stiff mattress. This foam pad worked really well with my stiff mattress. The only problem I have with it is that the foam moves around and I need to realign it with my bed every other day and my bed sheets always end up wrapping itself around the pad itself.

I do recommend this pad to anyone looking for a pad to soften their mattress. It was money well spent

I think we own the worst mattress ever produced but this makes it feel like a top of the line mattress! I definitely recommend it to everyone! The two contour pillows are very nice too! Now we can’t sleep without it on our bed! And my pregnant wife was having hip issues and couldn’t sleep without this thing. It was a life saver!

My wife was 5 months pregnant and starting to get a little uncomfortable while sleeping. A friend of mine bought one for his wife while she was pregnant and really made a difference for her (and him.) We got the pad and my wife immediately began to sleep better, and continued to do so for the rest of the pregnancy.

As good as it was to begin with, after my wife came home it was almost too good. Having little strength, it was a little too hard to push out of the foam and was also difficult to nurse, so since then the pad has been been in the basement, occassionally being thrown on the floor as an extra mattress when we have guests. If I had to make the purchase over again, I would go for the 2″ rather than the 3″, but I’m giving four stars because it did do the job for which it was purchased for.

This mattress has definitely improved the pain in my upper back and neck. But it is difficult to sit on it as it sinks it too much. And also very difficult to change positions if you do that while sleeping.

But a great bonus for us was the nice big box it was sent in. The box packaging the foam was covered by another huge box. It is quite sturdy and we are now using it as a convenient table for keeping stuff/eating. It is rigid and spacious. In retrospect, this box is coming in more handy than the foam mattress itself so we are very happy. Highly recommended !

My son had back surgery two years ago. This fall he became a freshman in college & the beds were extremely uncomfortable. With this memory foam mattress enhancer he is able to sleep comfortably & wakes without pain.

Before purchasing the 3" Visco2 Ventilated Mattress Enhancer I checked similar 3" pads at Target and Bed, Bath and Beyond. Their prices were higher and the pads came with outer covers. The pad sold here is just foam, nothing else. At the stores they have these 3' to 4' sample sections you can feel before purchasing. I laid them on the floor and put my body weight against the pad. In both stores I sunk straight to the hard tile floor. The pads were just too soft for me. The pad sold here, I found out, is about a pound more per cubic foot in density. In other words, for probably most people, you're getting a better foam pad here for less money.

Bed comfort is highly personal so your mileage may vary, but for me laying down on this always feels good. It's made my bed the most comfortable and inviting it's ever been - and that's important because I have always had insomnia. This pad was worth every penny for me.

Unlike others, I found no strong odor and I have a sensitive nose. Once it was on my bed and covered by a mattress pad and sheets that was it, never smelled a thing. Before using this I had slept on a foam/down combination pad that made me sweat even in winter. While this pad does seem to absorb and reflect a little more heat than my regular mattress, it's a million times better than my old pad.

The only negative is the lack of a cover like the kind that comes with 3" pads at the major stores. Not enough of an issue to detract even one star given the great price and the superior product.

College daughters loved this for on top of the standard dorm mattress. Very comfortable and good value for the price. Highly recommend using it with an extra padded mattress pad.

It’s like sleeping on a cloud. I feel like my bed love’s me again.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this foam topper! It truly is Visco and not a cheap knock-off. I tested it by checking my hand imprint and it left one for about 4 seconds. It fully expands when unpacked and shows no signs of being folded up in a box. I read all the reviews and took other reviewer’s advice. I ordered the 2″ foam and couldn’t be happier. It’s like sleeping on clouds! I weigh 104 lb. and wasn’t sure I weighed enough to feel the benefit but I can. The 2 inch foam isn’t too soft or too firm. We have a very good mattress but I felt like it could be a little softer. I was having aches and pains and now I wake up feeling fully refreshed and have no pains. It doesn’t come with a cover so just put a mattress pad over it and your existing mattress so the two become one. It comes with instructions to air it out and I did that outside in only 6 hours. I will NEVER be without this again. If it wears out, I’ll just get another one from this same company. Don’t hesitate to order this because it’s a VERY SMART buy!
