What our reviewers found

Pros

Luxurious ActiGel foam provides instant pressure relief, improving comfort for all types of sleepers.

Breathable cover aids in temperature regulation, creating a cool sleeping environment.

Hypoallergenic properties offer a peaceful night's sleep for those with allergies.

Cons

Several owners say the cooling is weak or hard to notice. One wrote, "The cooling element is yet to wow me".

Some owners noticed a new-foam smell at first, and for a few it lingered even after airing.

A few owners say it slides around on the mattress because the straps aren't tight enough.

Folks, let me introduce you to the TheraPur ActiGel Cool Mattress Topper. If you've been endlessly searching for a more peaceful slumber, your journey might finally come to a halt here.

When it comes to cosiness, this topper isn't just another slab of foam. It's constructed from premium ActiGel foam, designed to offer instant pressure relief, giving you that comfy, cushioned feel night after night. Regardless of whether you're a back sleeper, a side sleeper, or a restless sleeper, the specially designed ActiGel foam offers top-notch support right where you need it. Also, it's hypoallergenic, ensuring an uninterrupted, restful sleep.

Now, onto its cooling properties. The TheraPur ActiGel Cool Mattress Topper is akin to a refreshing breeze on a sweltering summer night. Its breathable fabric guarantees a pleasantly cool sleep, managing moisture to maintain your comfort throughout the night. It's an all-season companion, designed for year-round comfort.

And guess what, it's not just about the core functionality. This TheraPur topper comes with user-friendly elastic straps and a machine washable cover for effortless upkeep. Plus, it's backed by a 1-year guarantee, so you can rest easy.

So, what's the word from those who live with it? Owners mostly talk about comfort. Plenty bought it to soften a mattress that turned out too firm. One owner wrote that it "takes the edge off a hard mattress - though doesn't turn it super soft", and some say it eased back or hip pain. "My back pain has melted away," wrote another.

The cooling is where opinion splits. Some owners say it keeps them cool, but others can't feel any difference, and one went further: "I actually found myself sweating more at night." The new-foam smell comes up too. One owner found it "gone within a few days", but for a few it hung around after airing: "But still the smell lingered." A smaller group say it slides about because the straps aren't tight enough. A few found it thinner than they expected.

I've been sleeping on this topper for around a month! I had a very firm mattress...also I suffer with hip pain...I really feel its helped as I haven't been waking up pain whereas before I would wake up at least once every fortnight. Only negative thing is I feel it could have been a little thicker. Though so far so good! If it last 3 years I'll be happy

I bought this topper to soften up the very firm mattress we recently purchased from Dreams. The mattress was proving to be too firm and was exacerbating back and hip pain. Staff in store recommended this topper. It is very expensive for the super king bed but makes enough of a difference to ease at least the hip pain.

When first opened the smell was awful like it had gone mouldy even after stripping to air the foam for 24 hours & washing the cover there's still a slight smell, I don't find it very cooling either the only plus side is it's very comfortable & I am getting a better nights sleep

Bought this topper from Nottingham about a week ago, where the staff were really helpful. It really is comfortable supporting well but soft too. It's cool to start but doesn't keep you cooler than any other mattress, but we love it for extra comfort would highly recommend.

Purchased for a guest bedroom - the underlying mattress was quite hard and uncomfortable but my parents didn't want to replace it for the couple of times a year the bed was used. With this topper, I can visit them without having backache for weeks afterwards!

The mattress we chose did not have an internal memory foam layer, so we bought this topper and have been very satisfied. I felt a little discomfort the first couple days of use, but have since enjoyed some lovely night's of sleep.

Nicely made, but in my feeling is too soft. I bought a hard mattress and wanted to sleep in hard surface but the topper made it soft again :). I don't think its a toppers problem, the problem is probably with me.

An absolute game changer!!! So glad I invested in this mattress topper. I didn't want it for its cooling effect. I wanted to improve my sleeping comfort and be sure I was supporting all the main pressure points when I sleep.. iv been having problems with nerve pain down my left leg and I'm a back sleeper so found in a morning before I got my topper my back was particularly bad when I first got up..In less than a week of having this topper on my mattress I am "Pain free!!" Its like a miracle...its because it's totally contouring my lower back and supporting it...I would 100% recommend this Topper. Plus The salesman at the Chesterfield branch was AMAZING...So helpful I tried before I bought I had all the different options of toppers explained to me and so realised this was absolute the one for me. No pressure sales I was very happy indeed with the customer service of Drew a real knowledgeable salesman. Thank you.

I bought this to put on my firm mattress to make it more comfortable and, in all fairness, it does the job. However, when you open the pack it tells you to leave for 24 hours before using in order to get rid of the "new foam smell". This I did, even leaving it out in the fresh air for several hours. But still the smell lingered. Nevertheless I decided to use it and hope that it would now dissipate. Alas, no - it is still there. Not only that the smell is being passed onto the bedding and it also stinks the house out. If you buy this be prepared to air it for an absolute age before you use it.

I had great hopes for this topper but sadly it makes me hot and weirdly makes my legs ache - not sure how this happens. It is cool to the touch when I get into bed (using good quality cotton sheet on top) and this seems to make me sweat more. After reading the reviews I had hoped it would be the answer to my interrupted hot sleeping patterns but no. Nothing containing any sort of foam is good for me it seems. I have tried a variety of toppers and will need to continue the search It was a lot of money so I will persevere but so far very disappointing....

After having a feather and down topper which couldn't be washed and after trying memory foam toppers we visited Dreams in Caerphilly on a recommendation. The salesman was very helpful and informative and we purchased the Therapur Actigel and we weren't disappointed. We both had the best nights sleep we had I. Years. There's a bit of a funny smell when you first open the packaging but you do not notice it when you get into bed. Highly recommended

It really is cool and soft. They did give me the choice of two and I am glad to have chosen the softer variant that I like. Now, its a real pleasure to go to bed, and to move the hands and legs to search for cooler areas in the middle of night. It doesn't make me feel cold but just cozuly cool to touch feeling as an added bonus to the soft cushioning effect. I still preferred this to the other more expenditure options, surprisingly.

I have to give a five star rating, purely for the relief of the back ache for both myself and my wife.We have tried various mattresses over the past few years,but to no avail.However,the quality is assured when you purchase the Silentnight gel foamed topper.So far, this seems to have worked regarding relieving back pain.To arise in the morning pain free combined with the quality of sleep is a blessing. Fresh as a Daisy.

I went back to dreams in Walton-on-Thames to ask a topper and I was met by two friendly staff members who advised me on what to get I was surprised that it was so expensive however on using it I've realised it was correct everything the ladies told me especially the Somalian lady who was the one who served me she was extremely helpful and pleasant and nothing was too much trouble I can't complement the staff there enough

Brought a good nights sleep back.Topper with actigel brilliant as previous topper too hot( woman of a certain age!) Daughter had the Dreams Therapur mattress and she has the most comfortable bed in the house. I used to use her bed when she was away as could guarantee a good sleep. Our mattress new but too hard for me so the topper a great alternative to buying another new mattress

After doing a bit of research, I decided on this mattress topper as although it was expensive, it had the best reviews. I bought two one for a mattress I had that so firm I couldn't sleep on it and one for my main mattress which was lacking support. It's been a fantastic purchase as the firm bed is now extremely comfy & my main mattress now has more support. Excellent product.

Would reccomend. I could feel all the springs in my mattress but couldn't afford to buy a new one. This mattress topper is a good thickness, I can't even feel my mattress underneath and it's so comfy. There might be cheaper mattress toppers available but I'm glad I spent a bit more money on this as I'm sleeping so soundly, it's really changed my life.

The topper itself is lovely to lie on - soft, cosy and makes the bed feel much more relaxing. It definitely adds comfort and helped take the edge off my mattress. The only issue is that it doesn't always stay in place and tends to move around a bit in the night, so it needs adjusting every now and then. If it stayed put better, it would be perfect

The topper is a welcome addition to an old mattress and was an absolute bargain at half price. I didn't find any problem with smell - it dissipated after a few hours following the guidelines for airing. I think the topper has helped lessen the pain and stiffness of arthritis, though not to the extent I had hoped after reading some reviews.
Go to sleep!!

I have given the topper 4 stars, my reason for this is, it's comfortable, my sleep has definitely improved and it doesn't make you sweat. My reasons for not giving it the full 5 stars is, it could most definitely do with being a little bit thicker and I think the strap system could do with being improved as I am a restless sleeper

Horrible factory/chemical smell that didn't go away. I thought to try washing the outer cover and when I did, my washing machine was full of tiny microplastic bits everywhere that had come off. Not a good product. I tried asking to return it but they didn't allow as I'd already taken it out the original packaging.

I bought this to go on top of the mattress in my camper van. I hadn't had a decent night's sleep I the van since we owned it - this mattress topper completely revolutionised that. so pleased I bought it. I've slept really well in the van ever since. it was pretty expensive, but I think totally worth the money.

This makes any bed super comfortable without taking away from the support of the mattress. I sleep a lot on my side and sometimes a hard mattress is painful for my shoulder. This mitigates the problem very well. As an added bonus, if you have an air mattress this massively improves the quality of it.

Takes the edge off a hard mattress - though doesn't turn it super soft. I don't now get the hip aches I used to get so it must be working well I think. The smell people complain about has gone within a few days - air it well to start with and no problems after that at all.

Is this mattress topper firm or soft? I'm looking for a firm mattress topper that's not going to completely absorb my shape.

Answer: This topper is more medium to firm feel. Due to the type of foam used in this topper it is more supportive than absorbing due to the foams open cell structure.
