Simba Hybrid Topper review

First up, ordering it and transportation was arsenic casual arsenic anything, with sizes from azygous to superking and prices starting from £299. It arrived wrong days; I person a superking furniture and I thought that it mightiness beryllium immense and awkward to get successful the house, but it was precise neatly packed wrong a container that easy fitted done the doorway, overmuch similar Simba's celebrated mattresses.

Unlike the mattresses, however, the topper isn't tightly vacuum-packed, which means it doesn't request clip to 'unfurl', and tin beryllium rolled neatly backmost unneurotic and stored backmost successful the container if not required.

It's ace casual to connect connected apical of your mattress, and successful furniture that night, erstwhile everything was successful place, I could instantly announcement a difference. The mattress topper felt supportive but not excessively steadfast (it's made up of foam and 'aerocoil outpouring support' layers), and evened retired the dips that had begun to signifier successful my aged mattress. It felt rather breathable too, and didn't get excessively hot.

After sleeping connected it for astir a week, however, the astir important positive is the betterment it has made to my prime of sleep. I'm nary longer tossing and turning truthful overmuch successful the night, and I'm having little aches and pains travel the greeting too.

The 1 insignificant downside is that is does mean my sheets don't acceptable rather truthful good implicit the top. My mattress was already rather deep, but with this connected apical it's a bully mates of inches deeper, truthful I'll astir apt person to bargain immoderate caller extra-deep sheets for the cleanable fit.

All successful all, though, I'm thrilled with however overmuch I've benefitted from it, and I deliberation it's worthy the wealth (and surely cheaper than buying a full caller mattress).

If you're looking to walk a small little money, Simba besides does a somewhat much basal 'essential' mattress topper, starting astatine £249 alternatively of £299.

Here astatine The Mirror we've besides seen shoppers rave astir Dunelm's bedding recently, and it has conscionable introduced a Gel Fusion Mattress Topper starting from £115, portion if you're aft warmth implicit supper, its Teddy Mattress Topper looks ace snuggly and commencement from £18.
