TEMPUR-Adapt 3" Memory Foam Mattress Topper, Twin, White

I purchased this product due to moderate - severe back pain (left over remnants from the Marines). The current mattress I have is still good, but with my back getting progressively worse each year, I needed some sort of relief as it was taking me more and more time each morning to wind up a bit before I was fully mobile. I've slept on memory foam mattresses before as well as toppers. They were okay, but nothing that made me want to go out and purchase a similar product. Another colleague (former Marine as well) stated that his back pain (in the morning) has almost disappeared since he bought the TEMPUR-Topper Supreme. I did a quick search after speaking with him and found a too-good-to-pass-up price via Amazon (other sites to include TEMPUR-PEDIC had this going for $399.00 - queen size) so I bit the bullet and purchased it with the option of being able to return it if it didn't measure up. So, it came secured in 3 separate boxes. The original, another around that one, and then an Amazon shipping box. No damage or issues with delivery. It arrived 2 days after ordering it (Prime). Opening and unwrapping went well with no issues and the mattress topper was without any discrepancies (tears, stains, etc.). No odor whatsoever. I have been around new memory foam before, and this topper had no strong smell at all. I still gave it time to expand and air out (it comes wrapped / rolled up). After a few hours, I put it on the bed. My current mattress is a bit thicker than normal (plush hybrid) so I use deep pocket sheets. I wasn't sure if the additional 3 inches of memory foam would be an issue with size and fit of the sheets. While it is a bit tight, everything still fit and the sheets stayed down / didn't roll up at night. I gave this product 4 stars out of 5 because this topper still sleeps a bit hot (if I could give it 4.5 I would). Not piping hot, or where you're drenched in sweat hot, but a bit warm. That is a better description. Not hot, but warm. I normally run hot anyway, so this was a concern for me, but the pain in my back takes precedence over that so I gave it a shot. I'm very glad I did. I wouldn't say this took ALL the pain in my back away, but getting up in the morning is about 85% easier and with less issues / pain than before. So that to me is a major plus and solidifies this as a good buy. If they had a product like this that kept cool or did not generate any heat at all, I would give it 5 stars no problem. I would recommend this product to others who are looking to relieve whatever pain (neck, back, hip, etc.) they may have while sleeping or those just looking to refresh their current mattress with a updated fit / feel. *** UPDATE 1/22/2019 *** So, I've slept on this topper the past year and can honestly say that this has helped lessen the pain and discomfort I experienced every single morning prior to making this purchase. I have also changed my rating of 4 stars to 5 as the topper does not sleep as warm as it initially did in the beginning. I'm not sure if that is from my body getting used to the topper and regulating my internal temperature, the topper airing out after a few weeks of use and better circulation getting through the material, or a little bit of both. Either way, I actually look forward to going to bed each night and enjoying a comfortable nights rest. I would continue to recommend this product with the same endorsement I provided above.

The most plush mattress topper out there!! I actually discovered this at an Air BnB where I had to ask the owner where it came from and they gave me this information. I ordered one from Amazon and it remains one of the best purchases I've ever made. Period. We've owned it for over 2 years now and it's still as soft as the day we bought it! If you like a firm mattress, this is NOT going to be for you. It's very very soft, and you sink into it for a sleep like you're on a cloud! The cooling cover keeps you comfortable and it's easy to wash and put back on the pad. If you don't want to replace your mattress and want to extend the life of it, this will be your answer. Worth the splurge!!!

This is not at all what I expected. There’s absolutely no support, it’s so soft I sink and make it paper thin when I sleep on my side. Leaving my spin out of line. TOSSED MORE THAN EVER WITH THE TOPPER, THAN WITHOUT. My shoulders compress the front and my hips compress the center but my legs aren’t as heavy as those two pressure points and there’s no density to support my weight at 6’1, 230lbs - no comfort and no conformity to my body. Don’t be fooled by the band name. The smell and cover over the foam are nicer than others but what’s inside and that’s what matters, just isn’t there. As others of stated you can press the foam with two fingers pinching it and there is basically no resistance at all. Squeeze it and it turns into paper thin foam. Never would have known based off the advertised pictures - was expecting True Tempur-pedic foam not a Swiss cheese pad - Definitely Let it expand fully, 24 hours and in a room that stayed at 72 degrees with plenty of ventilation. This one is a HARD PASS!!

UPDATE: 02/13/2021 I've had this Tempur 3" mattress topper for a little over three years now and even though it's slept on nightly (and I think sometimes during the day when I'm out my dog jumps up for a nap! LOL) it still looks and feels brand new. I totally recommend it! ___________________________ ORIGINAL REVIEW: FEB 2018 I ordered this in late November 2017, and received it shortly thereafter, but instead of leaving a review for it right away based on my initial impression, I decided to give it some time - sleep on it, so to speak. LOL And wow does it sleep good! My initial impression was 5 stars from the moment I pulled it from its box, and nothing has changed for me to reduce that. While I would love to be able to afford the full TempurPedic mattress, they're just not in my budget, so when I saw this topper was available from the same company, it seemed like a safe bet that it was going to be the quality I'd expect but at a more attractive price. It is being used as a topper for a relatively new mattress that is still in fine shape (no sagging, etc) - one of the "S" brands, though I don't recall which, off-hand. Tempur didn't skimp like some of the less-expensive topper brands available; it is a full and dense 3", and meets all corners of my full size mattress underneath, giving the bed clean lines when made. It doesn't bunch up during sleep (like the cheaper store-bought "memory foam" topper it replaced), and it fully returns to its original smooth flat surface within seconds of removing weight. The cover is very nice, and washes easily, but is slightly challenging for one person to put back on only due to size and weight of actual topper pad; it takes a minute to slide it on like a pillowcase, just needing to go a little at a time from each side until its all the way back on. But the best part is how it sleeps... and how I sleep because of it. Exactly as expected, upon laying on it, it slowly starts to mold itself to me until there are no discernible pressure points - and that's the beauty of *real* memory foam, which is what to expect from Tempur. Often times, I wake up in the morning in the exact same place and position I laid down in the night before, meaning I slept the whole night through without shifting around trying to relieve uncomfortable pressure points, and well, because there aren't any. As for its sleeping temperature, it doesn't seem to 'heat up', or extract body heat, for that matter, and I use it in a non air-conditioned house in the Caribbean. It took a few nights to get used to it at first, mostly because I was so used to being uncomfortable during sleep prior to it that it felt weird to actually be comfortable. Now, each morning, I wake up feeling like I actually slept. And that's a really nice feeling. Not trying to start any trouble, but I've read through most of the reviews here, and my guess would be that at least some of the poorer reviews are from those who are either trying to rejuvenate an already saggy, worn out mattress, or are just not familiar with the technology behind this type of pad. Putting this pad on an already sagging mattress is only going to accentuate the sag even more as the pad conforms to the body - it'll feel like sinking into a pit. It's going to need a stable and uniform underlying surface. And as for the technology that makes this type of memory foam desirable and unique, that absorbing/conforming to the body is exactly what it's supposed to do; that's the whole 'relieving pressure points' from earlier. It's not quite a weightless feeling, just a feeling like there are no specific spots on the body that feel uncomfortably digging in - it's complete full-body support because it molds itself to the body. For the moment, at three months in, I'm very pleased with this Tempur pad, and do expect that to continue throughout its 10 year warranty period. If anything changes regarding quality or comfort, I will update my review accordingly.

Background: My talalay mattress had become really uncomfortable. To the point that sleeping on the couch was better. So I decided to advantage of the July Fourth Mattress Sales and get a new mattress. After some YouTube reviews, I went to local mattress store that had some solid deals with the intention of only buying a Tempur-Pedic Breeze Hybrid. After explaining my needs, issues and aches I ended up testing 6 different mattresses. The two mattresses I ended up deciding on was the Aireloom Cardiff Luxury Firm mattress & the Tempur Breeze, both roughly $4500. In the end I was convinced to not purchase the Tempur-Pedic Breeze Hybrid and go with the Aireloom Medium Firm for 50% off & an adjustable base. I'm a bigger guy and was told that this type would suit me better and having slept on a similar mattress at friend's house, it seemed like a good idea. So I took the deal. I figured it would be a bit of an adjustment to go from a pure talalay/memory foam mattress to a hybrid mattress so I was expecting an adjustment period. After two weeks, I didn't have anymore neck issues or arm numbness and it was much easier to get out of the actual bed however I started to wake up with horrible hip pain which was a totally new thing. At this point, I'm stuck with the Aireloom mattress due to the deep discount I did not get 100 day trial. So I decided to look at into mattress toppers. This is how I ended up back at Tempur Pedic. The Topper: First off, I was nervous about this purchase due to the amount of toppers people received that arrived damaged or with torn covers etc. However 50% price drop I went ahead & took the risk. Thankfully when I unboxed it, mine had arrived in perfect condition. The topper itself on this firm of a mattress is a perfect match. It amazingly provides the softness needed to reduce the hip issues and provided comfortable support that was not squishy in the least and restful sleeping experience. Contrary to what I assumed would happen, it did not completely flatten. The first night/morning after using the topper I literally didn’t get out of bed until noon, it was that comfortable. The Issue: The one thing with this topper that I can’t figure out how to remedy is slippage. My new base is an adjustable base so when I’ve adjusted to watch a movie, read a book or work using my ‘bed desk’ from home, the topper moves. It moves more way easily than I thought it could considering the fact that it’s underneath a very tight mattress protector and it is quite heavy. Dependent on which side of the bed in get on, it pulls that direction. The topper's cover base has ‘no slip traction' which is clearly not enough to keep the topper from sliding. It’s has become a pain to constantly have it sliding off the edge but the comfort outweighs that bit if of frustration. Looking for remedies and will update if I find one. TLDR: Great topper but only at the reduced price. Wish I had just purchased the Tempur-Pedic Breeze Hybrid mattress and forgone the topper altogether. However, the topper has a created such a different feel with the Aireloom mattress that I have no idea if this combination just happened to be complimentary or if the Breeze Hybrid would actually be any better.

Part of me expected this to be a $500 return. We have an extremely expensive bed. We were looking at replacing it because it has some things we don’t like about it and wanted memory foam. We have been sleeping better from day one. It’s remarkable. And I would almost argue might be the best $500. I’ve spent recently on ourselves and worth every penny ironically to us. It’s like sleeping on a cloud. It’s that comfortable.. it’s a little weird to puff up, but it pops up nicely.

After taking in delivery of this item, I no longer believe that "you get what you pay for". Cheap doesn't always mean bad, and expensive doesn't always mean better. Tempurpedic charges outrageous prices despite cheaper competition because they can. Most name brand anything can charge what they want because they know the name alone is enough to sell their product. And while I don't know where Tempurpedic chooses to invest its profits, the one place they're clearly not focusing on is quality control. I had been looking to upgrade my comfortable, but old 2" memory foam topper. I decided I wanted to try a 3" topper instead because I felt like I sank right down to the mattress with 2". After reading countless reviews and comparing prices I decided to bite the bullet and try this one out. I have a super firm hybrid mattress that I love but it's just a bit too firm for me. I'm partial to memory foam toppers as long as they're high density; I hate foam that's too soft and feels like quicksand. When I received it the box was a little banged up, but not too bad. The mattress topper comes compressed and rolled up in plastic wrap. Upon removing the wrap, the topper immediately expands to its normal size. The cover comes pre-installed but I recommend removing it right away for two reasons: 1) it absorbed the off-gassing odor from the foam so it's worth washing right away (the off-gassing isn't the worst I've smelled, but it's definitely there) and 2) to check for defects in the foam. Honestly removing the cover is the only way to do a thorough inspection. As you can see from my photos, mine arrived with a significant tear. Right on the edge, and large enough to put my entire arm through. This tear was located right at the top of the topper and I would not have seen it without removing the cover. It arrived in this exact condition, and I was honestly shocked. There's no way this tear occurred in transit as all the packaging was intact. It MUST have occurred wherever these are packaged, and I wonder if they have a quality control department to inspect products prior to packaging them up. It's obvious from reading other reviews here that people have been receiving damaged products, whether it's the foam itself or the cover. It actually makes me seriously question whether Tempurpedic truly cares about quality, or if they're more focused on quantity. As for how comfortable it is, this is going to be very subjective. It's definitely a medium-firm as advertised, and I think it's extremely comfortable. However, my husband does not like it. We both like firmer sleeping surfaces so the reason I think I like it and he doesn't has to do with our body size. I'm a heavier person, and he's tall and skinny. Because I'm much bigger, I don't get completely sucked into the topper. I find it to be very supportive actually. But being a thinner person, it takes longer for him to sink and he sinks in too much. He finds it more difficult to get up out of it compared to me. We are actually considering cutting this topper in half so that I can have the Tempurpedic side and he can have the old topper we were using. I mean, the gigantic tear begins at the halfway mark so it's almost like the work is done for us. Thanks, I guess? Anyway if you decide to purchase this on Amazon, make sure that Amazon is the actual retailer and not a third party. That way if yours arrives damaged and you need to return it, they can arrange for a "large item" courier to pick it up since there's no getting it back in the box once it's opened. It's a great topper, but just make sure you're ready to deal with the hassle if it doesn't arrive in perfect condition. At this price point I expected quality, and what I received was damaged garbage.

I have a queen size "firm" posturepedic Plus Hybrid Sealy mattress and although it's an excellent mattress, I still experienced some loss in circulation and pressure on my hips and shoulders as a side sleeper. I had been planning on buying this mattress topper for about a month before purchasing. I watched a video of someone reviewing it outside of Amazon and I'd like to share some notes he stated that are true to this topper. If you want to watch that video, look up "Tempur adapt mattress topper review - the best pressure relief?" by Mattress Clarity. The video as of writing this review is 5 years old. For reference, I am 5'6", 107lbs and I'm bony. I sleep on my side but sometimes roll over onto my back during the night. I have osteoarthritis in my left hip and I've had a history of cervical nerve issues, which makes my left arm numb when I sleep wrong. Your mattress underneath has to be firm because this topper is SOFT. You probably don't want to be trapped inside your mattress if it's too soft. If your mattress is, for instance, 8 out of 10 on the firmness scale (10 being closer to that of a tabletop), then this topper will reduce that number to around 5. My mattress is soft in comparison to other brands, so there was a concern that this topper would make my bed too soft, but that hasn't been the case. When I first put this on top of my mattress, I was concerned my hips and especially my shoulders would poke through the foam and be touching the mattress. It might be two inches thick but I haven't actually done that. I'm well-padded. The softness is perfect for me. It did take a few nights for my body to adjust, as I was still waking up with sore hips, but after a month of sleeping on this combo, I wake up refreshed. I was concerned that I'd maybe need the 3 inch topper instead, but the 2 inches work perfectly fine. Maybe in the future when I might wear this one out, I'll get the 3inch. But for now, this works. I also love how, like the tempur-pedic mattress, it's motion isolating. I wouldn't trust that a glass of wine wouldn't topple over, like they used to demonstrate in old tempur-pedic commercials, because my Sealy mattress is a bit springy. So if you're expecting this to be perfectly motion isolating, I think it largely depends on your mattress. If you were like me and were concerned that this topper might shift around without mattress straps, it's ok because mine hasn't budged. However, I do not flop around much while I sleep, so I'm not sure if a flopper would experience the same thing I have been. The box came with a nice fitted sheet that keeps it in place. But for me, this topper has so much grip, I struggled getting it onto my mattress because it decided it didn't want to move. I would recommend someone else help you, especially if you have a queen or larger. But it is doable solo. Speaking of the fitted sheet it came with, you might want to look into replacing the fitted sheet you already have with something with deeper pockets because this topper does heighten your bed. Deeper pockets or size up, like from queen to king. There is minimal smell right out of the package. I didn't mind it at all. I couldn't immediately access my package when it arrived. So this topper was sitting in its packaging for several days. I was worried it wouldn't decompress. Luckily, it decompressed almost immediately by itself. I didn't need to do anything for it to spring into working order. As for my medical issues, I experienced some arthritic pain at first, but that slowly disappeared. I've had zero issues with my cervical nerve to the point where I forget I even have that issue. I would recommend this tempur-pedic mattress topper to those who have similar features to me and for side sleepers. Larger builds will benefit from this as well, but if you're bigger, I'd suggest watching that video because the guy reviewing it is a bigger guy. Update (April 19 2025): Tempurpedic foam, I've learned, makes you sweaty at night. I haven't really stopped sweating with this topper. I am normally a cold sleeper, so this surprised me. Also, it did shift a little bit and it's hard to move it back in place, so I've kept it where it decided to sit. The comfort of this item is too precious for me to get rid of it, that being said.
