Why our sleep experts loved it

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? With an impressive score of 4.8/5 from 57 customer reviews, it's clear that this product has captivated many sleepers. Users have lauded its comfort, and some even credit it for relieving their hip pain. A reviewer shared that they've been sleeping like a baby since getting the topper. A couple of users did note some initial discomfort and a peculiar smell, but these minor issues were swiftly overshadowed by the product's comfort.

That said, not every user found it perfect. One customer found it less cooling than anticipated and mentioned an initial off-putting smell. However, these seem to be outliers, not the norm.

Why you can trust WantMattress We spend hours testing (and/or researching) every product or service we review, so you can be sure you’re buying the best. Find out more about how we test.

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.

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.

After having a feather and down topper which couldnt 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 werent disappointed. We both had the best nights sleep we had I. Years. Theres 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.

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 doesnt 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.

I have given the topper 4 stars, my reason for this is, its comfortable, my sleep has definitely improved and it doesnt 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

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.Many thanks
