Need help with topper for very firm mattress.

[phoenix]

Hi Goat,

Topper ?? I have a queen size blended talalay mattress. We have had it for about one year we both liked a firm mattress. We had never had a latex mattress before. So we got 3 layers very firm bottom firm and firm. all was fine for awhile. Now I am starting to have pain in my hips and shoulders my wife’s back from time to time. Now we are looking into a topper. We don’t want something to soft but need something to help alleviate the joint soreness. And I really don’t grasp the ILD rating but we are hoping a softer top will help. Thank you.

Post #2 here and the topper guidelines it links to can help you use your actual sleeping experience on your mattress as a reference point and guideline for choosing the type, thickness, and firmness for a topper that has the best chance of success and also includes a link to the better topper sources I’m aware of as well.
