Product description of the manufacturer
The Mister Sandman mattress topper 5 cm is an excellent solution for anyone who wants to improve their sleeping comfort in a simple way. The highly elastic gel foam provides excellent pressure relief and adapts perfectly to the shape of the body. With a height of 5 cm, the topper brings a noticeable improvement in lying comfort, especially for people who need additional padding. Another plus is the regulation of the bed temperature, which leads to pleasant sleeping comfort by dissipating excess heat. The durable gel foam ensures that the topper retains its shape and function over long periods of time. According to the manufacturer, the easy-care cover is also suitable for allergy sufferers and a safe choice for babies and toddlers. The only drawback is that the cover is somewhat more difficult to put back on after washing. Overall, however, the topper offers a worthwhile improvement in sleeping comfort.
Advantages
- Optimum temperature regulation
- Easy-care cover
