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.
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.
I intend to be brief and not long-winded about this. One of our family has severe back problems. It is bad enough to cause leg numbness and pain. We have a Tempur-Pedic mattress in the house but we were not sure if purchasing another one was worth the investment. We decided to try this instead. Since we purchased this topper and placed it on the bed the back pain has been reduced, the leg pain happens less frequently and the sleep is better.
My wife and I both suffer from back pain; some as a result of beginning to age and also, in my case, as a result of injury. We had been sleeping on a quite firm, and quite comfortable, conventional mattress. However, we had back pain that I chalked up to age, etc. When visiting our younger daughter, who was pregnant at the time, she said she had terrible back pain after 6 months or so of pregnancy. A friend recommended this topper to her, and she swears it relieved her pain almost completely. Being the skeptic that I am, I refused to believe that a 3" mattress topper could make that much difference. Not only that, but it seemed pretty pricey. To make a long story longer (haha), my wife finally prevailed. I bit the bullet, bought this thing, and have never been happier. Our back pain is virtually gone. I HIGHLY recommend this mattress topper! It's one of the best purchases I have made. And, it is saving me a lot of money in doctor visits and physical therapy appointments!
I almost returned this mattress topper. It's thick. It's very cushy.
I've never been a fan of that sinking feeling provided by foam toppers or foam mattresses; however, I purchased a firm hybrid mattress (online), and just wasn't happy with the amount of pressure relief it was missing. While on vacation this summer, I slept on a (non-Tempurpedic) topper, and had to admit that it was really helping me fall asleep and reduce/relieve join pain.
I chose this mainly for the quality, the brand name, the warranty and the washable cover. My Mom has had a Tempur-Pedic topper (same model) for about a year, and she loves it.
Although my first impression was that it was going to be way too cushy for me, after giving this topper a good try, my joints and muscles are thanking me. Yes, my bed is higher--almost too high now. It's heavy, and can be a bit hard to reposition. Those issues aside, this topper is heaven. GOSH, it's comfy. I can sit on my bed with my laptop, and yet feel supported. When you first lay down, it feels firm and supportive. After a bit, the surface loosens up, conforms to your shape, and your weight feels evenly supported. I never feel like my middle section is lower than my head or feet in an uncomfortable way, like you can get with less supportive toppers.
I am a hot sleeper. Even in 100+ degree, humid weather, I haven't experienced any problems with feeling too hot at night. We set the house thermostat at about 70 degrees at night, and keep the ceiling fans going. The topper has worked perfectly to provide cool comfort. Looks like we'll be purchasing this topper for all of the beds in the house. I'm glad I took the plunge.

This mattress topper is amazing. No more waking up with any kind of aches or pains. It’s like sleeping on a cloud that molds to your body. We’ve had it for almost a year now and I will never sleep without it. The only problem is getting out of bed in the morning.
Worked very well for me! Smell is not an issue as far as I am concerned. Fit was almost perfect for a King, just about an inch difference at either end of the bed, but the sides fit perfectly. I have a Dux bed, which is one of the most expensive beds available, and the Supreme Topper was far better than the top that came with the bed, which had to be rotated constantly, and still would show use marks within a few days. This topper does allow your body to sink when sitting on it, but will conform comfortable to your body when you lie down. A far better bargain when compared to replacing the Dux topper at $2K plus!!!
I didn’t know if 3 inches would be enough to make a difference. It’s delightful! The topper adds the soft cushion you expect of this revolutionary Tempur material. I had a Tempur-Pedic bed for years. I decided to buy a different bed, also orthopedic but it’s not Tepur-pedic. Big mistake. This topper is a life saver. I sleep better and much more comfortable. I’d say just as good as buying the bed itself. I’m very pleased. Highly recommend. And so much more affordable than buying the actually mattress. And by the way, it’s not hot as was previously reported in their 1st models.
I did a lot of reasearch for a topper. I have hip and low back pain. Since one spends a fair amount of time in bed, I decided it was worth an investment. My mattress is in good condition, about 8 years old, and I did not feel it was time for a new one and a full Tempur-Pedic mattress. I have had the topper for three nights and I love it. I feel less pain when I wake in my hips and back. Last night was a bit of a warm evening and I could tell the difference from my plain mattress in term of heat retention. This would does not outweigh the benefits in my eyes. We will see how it goes as summer approaches.
I'm a 64 year old man that weighs 140 lbs.. I try to stay fit and athletic and that comes with pain.
My initial goal is to wake up with less pain not more. My previous bed did not have proper support and I could go to bed with no pain but would wake up hurting. This is what I wanted to remedy.
First I realized that my bed was sagging, I bought 1 inch thick latex foam sheets thru Amazon and placed the foam between foundation and bottom of the mattrice. Once I had the top of the mattrice flat, I put the memory foam on the bed.
Success ! I wake up always with less pain and better rested. I would recommend Tempur-Pedic pad to everyone, but please consider the condition of your existing mattrice to be able to enjoy the full benefit.
