What is a pillow top mattress?

Mattresses come with a variety of top layers attached to them. These top layers, depending on their design, add varying amounts of cushioning to the mattress. While the construction itself may be a totally firm mattress, the top layer can give one extra padding or the feeling of sinking into the mattress when getting into bed.

Unlike a pillow-top mattress, which is a mattress that cannot be flipped because of the added pillow-top feature, a mattress topper is completely separate from the mattress. Isotonic memory foam mattress toppers have become very popular in recent years.

While it is true that some of their pillow tops can be extremely soft, almost to the point of no support at all, they do come in different materials and thickness so you can choose how firm you want your mattress to be. They use memory foam of different thickness to achieve firmer pillow pads as well.

The most popular model is the Simmons Beauty rest pillow top, which almost everyone has heard of through word of mouth. Whether you get the pillow top or not, Beauty Rest is simply the best mattress you can purchase today. They are made with pocketed coils, which offer even more comfort and some are made with two layers of coils which add firm support and comfort like never before.

As mattresses of its type, you are not likely to find a much better deal. But it should also be noted that while these pocket coil mattresses cost about half what you could pay, they are also prone to needing replacement in about half the time. Even with the slight chance of a body impression forming after some years of use, a Simmons Beautyrest pillow top mattress is still an extremely comfortable option that is worth checking into.
