Mattress toppers

What is a top-of-the-range mattress topper?

What is a top-of-the-range mattress topper used for? A mattress topper is an additional layer of bedding that is placed on top of the mattress to enhance the comfort of the bed. Varying in thickness from 1 to 6 centimetres, this bedding topper increases the feeling of softness and completes the comfort of a firm mattress. Our grandmothers used to use mattress toppers to provide extra comfort and warmth in bed. At the time, it was called a "feather bed". It has been rethought over the last ten years or so, particularly in the luxury hotel industry, where it brings real luxury comfort to bedding.

How do I choose a mattress topper?

Choosing a mattress topper depends on your sleeping habits and your own sensitivity. The size must, of course, be the same as the mattress. So, for a 140x190 mattress, you'll need to choose a 140x190 mattress topper. Its thickness will depend on its filling. Feather mattress toppers are thicker than synthetics, by between 2 and 6 centimetres. The former provides extra warmth, thanks to the thermoregulating properties of feathers and down. In this way, it adapts its calorific contribution to the sleep cycle and therefore to variations in body temperature. You'll feel soft and plush. The synthetic mattress topper overlay has a more energetic, elastic feel. It retains a certain firmness, while adding a little extra softness to the mattress. As well as remembering your body shape, the mattress topper adapts to it.

Which top-of-the-range mattress topper should I choose?

Which top-of-the-range mattress to choose depends on a number of criteria, including the choice of filling, firmness and size. Feather and down provide a feeling of softness and extra warmth, while adapting to the sleep cycle and therefore to variations in body temperature. The synthetic filling, made from siliconised fibres, gives a pleasantly elastic, puffy feel. The size simply depends on the size of the mattress, making sure they are identical. Firm mattress toppers offer a resilient welcome, while soft mattress toppers are more enveloping and softer.

What size top-of-the-range mattress topper should I choose?

Choosing the right size is particularly simple: it should be the same size as the mattress. For example, a 180x200 centimetre mattress topper should be used with a 180x200 centimetre mattress. The length of the mattress should also be taken into account, as some mattresses are 200 centimetres long and others 190 centimetres (in standard sizes). So, for a 140x190 centimetre mattress, it's absolutely necessary to use a 140x190 centimetre mattress topper. The height should also be taken into account, as feather and down mattress covers are at least 6 centimetres thick, which can be a lot for some fitted sheets made for the height of a standard mattress.

How do I wash a mattress topper?

It's very important to realise that you need to follow our instructions for use carefully to ensure that this product lasts as long as possible and provides unparalleled comfort. All top-of-the-range feather and down mattress toppers are not machine washable or dry cleanable. It must therefore be protected like a mattress, in particular with the protective cover supplied by Maison Dumas with every purchase of this product, which can be machine-washed at 40 degrees. The synthetic mattress topper can be machine washed at 40 degrees and dried in a tumble dryer on a gentle cycle, until all traces of moisture have disappeared. To ensure the mattress overlay lasts as long as possible, it is important to shake the filling vigorously every day, as it settles under the weight of the body every night. Interchanging the head and foot and turning the mattress over every week also helps to maintain the filling's plumpness.
