Topper 180x200

Mattress topper 180x200 cm for large mattresses and box spring beds

A good mattress is essential for healthy and restful sleep. But even the best mattress and the best box spring bed can be noticeably improved by a suitable 180x200 cm mattress topper.

What is a 180x200 cm mattress topper?

Figuratively speaking, a mattress topper is a second mattress on top of the mattress. In principle, the mattress topper 180x200 cm, which is also often referred to as a mattress topper, is very similar to a conventional mattress in terms of structure and material. There are mattress toppers 180x200 cm made of cold foam or comfort foam, as reversible toppers with different firmness levels (H2/H3) on the top and bottom, with a summer and winter side for seasonal heat regulation as well as with a 7-zone comfort core to provide optimum support for all areas of the body from head to ankle. However, a 180x200 cm mattress topper is significantly thinner with a thickness of around 6 cm to 10 cm, but is exactly the same size as a 180x200 cm mattress or two 90x200 cm mattresses lying next to each other so that the edges of the mattress and topper fit together perfectly.

Why do you need a 180x200 cm mattress topper?

With a 180x200 cm mattress topper, the firmness of a sleeping surface can be individually adjusted to suit your needs. In addition, a suitably selected mattress topper 180x200 cm has numerous positive effects on sleep quality and the sleeping climate.

In contrast to box spring beds, where a mattress topper is part of the basic equipment, conventional double beds and sofa beds only have a mattress as a sleeping surface. This is sufficient as long as the firmness, support and sleeping comfort of the bed meet your own sleeping needs. However, if one of these important parameters for good sleep changes, for example because the mattress is worn out or the sleeping position or body weight has changed, this has a direct impact on the comfort of the mattress. Incorrect support can lead to back or joint pain, circulatory problems and even numbness. Difficulty falling asleep and waking up at night are also often the result of a mattress that is too hard or too soft. These sleep-disrupting problems can be remedied with a 180x200 cm mattress topper. The additional foam layer of the mattress topper ensures that the firmness of the bed is optimally adjusted to your preferred sleeping comfort. A suitable topper with the respective lying firmness can make mattresses that are too hard softer and vice versa. At the same time, a 180x200 cm mattress topper improves the pressure relief of the musculoskeletal system so that pain-sensitive areas such as the back, shoulders and hips are optimally supported. A 180x200 cm mattress topper is also useful for covering the annoying visitor's crack that occurs in double beds with two adjacent mattresses.

How thick should the 180x200 cm mattress topper be?

The height of the 180x200 cm mattress topper has a significant influence on the lying sensation. The thicker the topper, the greater the effect on the lying sensation. Mattress toppers 180x200 cm are available in thicknesses from 6 cm to 10 cm. People with a higher body weight should choose a thicker 180x200 cm mattress topper so that the body receives better support during sleep. For children and people with less weight, on the other hand, a thinner topper 180x200 cm is recommended so that they can still benefit from the support of the mattress underneath despite the mattress topper - provided it still has sufficient elasticity and support.

Good to know: Even the best mattress will eventually wear out and should then be replaced. The experts at TÜV Rheinland recommend that mattresses and mattress toppers should be replaced after around five to eight years.

A thicker topper is the best choice for anyone who wants to significantly improve the comfort of their sleeping area. However, if you are looking for an inexpensive mattress protector to protect the mattress from premature wear or soiling, you can choose a thinner topper without hesitation.

What material is the 180x200 cm mattress topper made of?

In addition to the thickness, the individual material properties of the 180x200 cm mattress topper are decisive for how sleep quality is improved. The most common materials for high-quality mattress toppers include cold foam and comfort foam. The main difference between the two types of foam lies in their structure and physical properties.

Cold foam topper 180x200 cm

A mattress topper 180x200 cm made of cold foam is particularly breathable and has a heat-regulating effect, and due to its good thermal conductivity, the topper has a pleasant cooling effect in summer and an additional warming effect in winter. These properties are advantageous for people who perspire heavily in their sleep or who are cold despite a comforter. Cold foam has a high density combined with good elasticity, which provides improved support in the sleep system. Mattress toppers 180x200 cm made of cold foam are therefore recommended for people who prefer a rather firm sleeping surface.

• Material properties of cold foam:
• good pressure relief
• High resilience and dimensional stability
• Breathable material for improved air circulation
• good body adaptation
• Allergy-friendly material
• long service life
• reasonable price

Recommended for:

• People with back pain
• preferably side sleepers
• People who like to sleep a little firmer
• Allergy sufferers
• People who sweat or freeze while sleeping

Comfort foam topper 180x200 cm

A 180x200 cm mattress topper made of comfort foam is slightly softer than a topper made of cold foam. The material is characterized by good body contouring and pressure relief, which is particularly helpful in the case of tension. Due to its softer texture, sleep is noticeably more comfortable. Mattress toppers 180x200 cm made of comfort foam are therefore recommended for people who prefer a softer sleeping surface.

Material properties of comfort foam:

• good pressure relief
• high dimensional stability
• hypoallergenic
• breathable
