“the bamboo mattress topper has put a stop to tossing and turning so much. no issues with smell as others stated despite having sensitive sense of smell. my advice... give it a week at least. I actually hated it the first week and was ready to return... felt too hot, little trapped in, and got a backache. But after a week it seemed firmer and i started sleeping better with less waking up during the night. comes with a nice fitted sheet on top of mattress so can wash easily. note: naturally, as it raises the mattress, be aware that your fitted sheet for the bed will become a little small and i have to keep re-doing it in the morning. But all good otherwise”
