The mattress protectors can be had in single,double and kingsize for feck all euros in Homestore & More and also Penneys.

Ok, not to be thick (and tks for the pic btw) and maybe this is not the place for it but can you have a mattress, then a mattress protector on top and still make use of fitted sheets? It seems like a awful lot of depth with one on top of the the other?

I have a 10 inch thick kingsize mattress and the mattress protector fits over it just nicely.

So you should have no probem with adding a mattress topper to that memory foam mattress.

YUCK!!! I'm now afraid to open the image for fear of what it is!!!!

Have you ever spilled a cuppa tea or a cold drink while siting up in bed in the morning time?

Or the kids jumping up and down on their beds or your bed and they spill some of their fruit juice?

You ever sweat in bed at all???


Your body can expell around 1 litre of sweat/fluid a night when you are sleeping.


All the above are why a mattress protector is a good idea.

My husband and kids have done all of the above and I find mattress protectors on all the beds a MUST. Our new memory foam mattress is still in the box but can't wait to use it

Bought mine today-thanks OP! I knew there would be a slight chemical smell from it, it'd be grand to leave in the room but Jayzus, the smell is powerful .. hope it wares off soon cause I wanna do some serious snoozin on it!

What kind of prices are the silent night brand? Is yours a double or king?

its kinda hard to see it in the picture. but I am wondering because this is in a box.. is that basicly just a matress topper?
hardly yea just open this and put it on a bed base? I got the pillows last time they were on in HS&M and i can feel the pillows are not reutrning to their great shape anymore(and that just from the head lying on it) I would imagine the whole body weighing in more

Have you not been reading the thread then???

It is a propper mattress.

Its vacume packed and when its rolled out,it expands to 17cm in thickness which is just on 7 inches in thickness.

Its a propper memory foam mattress.


Read the thread will you.

King : €200

I've seen those useless 3" mattress toppers for nearly that price.

It comes vacuum packed in a box with built-in wheels so it can fit in the back seat of a car.

I know some people say that pure memory foam mattresses can be a little too warm in the summer, just in case that's a factor for anyone.

Not sure it's the great deal they're making it out to be. Those memory foam mattresses are only 17cm thick.

You can get 20cm Hypnia memory foam mattresses on amazon with free delivery (unlike Homestore)..

Single €150

Large Double with free pillows €187


King size with free pillows €220
