Are Mattress Toppers Worth It? Spoiler: Your Back Thinks So.

by Natalie Shipley-Younan 07 May 2025

Let’s talk mattress toppers. You’ve probably heard of them, maybe even Googled “can mattress toppers fix my bed” at 2 a.m. when you’re tossing and turning. Whether your mattress is sagging like a week-old birthday balloon or your back feels like it’s aged ten years overnight, a good topper might just be the upgrade you didn’t know you needed.

We get asked a lot of questions about these magical mattress enhancers, so let’s dive into the most common ones—with a wink, a smile, and a whole lot of comfort.


1. Are Mattress Toppers Really Worth It?

Short answer? Yes. Long answer? Yeeesss.

Think of a mattress topper as a little hug for your bed—and by extension, your body. They can revive a tired mattress, help regulate temperature, add plushness, or even firm things up (depending on the material). And the best part? You don’t have to fork out for a whole new mattress.

2. Do Mattress Toppers Help With a Sagging Mattress?

We’re not saying a topper is a miracle-worker, but if your mattress has more dips than a chip platter, a quality topper can definitely help smooth things out. Memory foam and latex toppers, in particular, are great at redistributing weight and adding supportive structure.

While they won’t fix the root cause of a saggy mattress (especially if yours is older than your dog), they can buy you more comfy nights while you weigh up a replacement.

🛠 For structural support with comfort, try our Giselle Latex Mattress Topper (Double)—firm where it matters, soft where you want it.


3. Can Mattress Toppers Help With Back Pain?

Oh, sweet relief—yes they can! If your current mattress is too firm, too soft, or just not “right,” it could be contributing to aches and pains. A supportive topper can help align your spine and relieve pressure points.

Memory foam toppers are especially beloved by back-pain sufferers thanks to their contouring magic.

🌬 If cool comfort and back support are on your wishlist, our Giselle Cool Gel Memory Foam Topper (Queen) delivers all that with a refreshing touch of cool gel.
