Q: Buying new mattress or memory foam topper?
My bed is terrible, with the springs on one side completely broken, leading to that portion of the bed pretty much sinking like quicksand every time I lie down on it.
I've been in my apartment a year now, so I doubt I could get my landlord to pay for it. I've heard some people say they bought memory foam toppers instead of purchasing a new mattress and it worked great. Has anyone tried this? Any idea of what the price difference might be between the two, or what big stores generally sell them?
When I moved into my new apartment the bed was a rock even though it was new.
I tried for 2 weeks to get used to it and I finally had enough even though my gf loved it (what's up with that?)
I found a memory foam pad at Vanguard for only 225 yuan and it has made a world of difference for me. It is about 2 inches thick and It is even covered in nylon fabric so its easy to clean.
Memory foam will make even the hardest bed feel decent. I don't have any here, but I do at home, and that mattress is as hard as a rock. I wish I had bought some for my bed in China, but didn't get around to it. I can't wait to go home and sleep on the memory foam.
I do have a close friend from England, and he just bought one of those memory foam mattresses. I was by his home yesterday and laid on it, and it was very nice and comfortable. Until I asked him how much he paid. His bed is 200 x 190 centimeters, he paid 6,000 Rmb for the gitzmo.
I think I will try the two inches thick foam pad first and see if it works the same, One huge difference in price, for that I can spend one week in Thailand.
