What is a Mattress Pad versus a Mattress Topper?
A mattress pad and a mattress topper serve similar purposes but have some key differences:
Mattress Pad:
- A mattress pad is typically thinner than a mattress topper and is designed to provide a layer of protection for your mattress.
- It often serves as a barrier between you and the mattress, protecting it from spills, stains, dust mites, and other allergens.
- Mattress pads are usually quilted or fitted and are secured to the mattress like a fitted sheet with elastic edges.
- They can add a slight amount of padding or cushioning to the mattress, but their primary purpose is protection.
- If you are looking for an all-natural layer of protection for your mattress, we have Bamboo Filled Mattress Pads encased in 100% Bamboo Lyocell for all bed sizes: OCOCHI Bamboo Mattress Pad
Mattress Topper:
- A mattress topper is a thicker layer of material that is placed on top of your mattress to alter its firmness, provide additional support, or enhance comfort.
- Toppers come in various materials such as memory foam, latex, down alternative, feather-filled or wool.
- They can be used to soften a firm mattress or add extra support to a softer one.
- Mattress toppers are generally thicker than mattress pads and are not typically used for protection; instead, they are mainly for comfort and support.
