From what I have read most recommend a 3" topper for side sleepers. Why will the 2" work for me?

I am a side sleeper too. I think it is denser than memory foam for example and instead of sinking into the topper it seems to give you support. It works very well for me. Also it doesn't have any toxic fumes. I think it is a Wonderful topper!

I don't know why, but I'm a side sleeper and the 2" works fine for me. Besides, if this topper were 3" it would be very heavy and I probably would have trouble lifting it. Maybe it has something to do with density.

I bought this queen size cover for a 3" memory foam mattress topper. I washed it first so it may have shrunk a little. It is a little small for a 3" topper but may work for a 2". It was very difficult to put on the memory foam. I had to get my husband to help and he informed me it is never coming off again!

We haven't had this product for a year...but about a year and a half ago, I bought the 2" Lucid and I can say "yes" it has retain the thickness and comfort. I will say that my husband who is using the 3" is loving it and is sleeping better than he has in a long time. Hope this information helps.

I use it for sleeping on my side. I guess you need to decide how high you are comfortable having your head when you lie on your back.

I sleep every which way, and I find the Cloud to be a terrific deal for the money. I would go by your weight. I weigh 230lbs and it works for me. The toppers cover your mattress from corner to corner. If you weigh more than me then get a 4 inch topper. What I recommend is getting a contour memory foam pillow. They are cheap and will give you the most support . If you are a side sleeper add a feather pillow on top of your contoured pillow and you will sleep like a baby. You can pick up a contoured pillow on line for less than $20.

I bought the 2" and love it. But, in the back of my mind I keep thinking what the 3" would of felt like. I guess I'll never know. Sorry I could not of been of anymore help.

If I had a new pillow top mattress that sags, I would first go back to the retailer. They may replace it and save you money. As to your question, I am not sure. I bought ours for the camper with a low quality mattress and it is the most comfortable bed we own. When I buy another I will get the 3 inch one and put a pad on top before the bottom sheet. Hope this helps.

I'm a side sleeper as well and have been quite comfortable. With a really good padded mattress cover I think you'll enjoy a good nights' rest on your side, back or stomach.

I love my topper. In fact I bought another one for my guest bedroom. Hope this helps.

The 2" is very comfortable for me, but I've read other comments that recommend the 3" for heavier people. On a side note, I need to add something to my review. This topper had no odor when I first got it. After a few months, I flipped it over and the smell was BAD. I left it turned over to allow the smell to dissipate but couldn't stand it after several hours. I finally turned it back to the original side until I find some other place for it to air out.

Purchase the 3 inch mattress from Dream on Me Your baby will love it, its firm and a good thicknessAll the others that are 1 to 2 inches give no support

I think it may work fine if you are putting the topper on a mattress that is already fairly comfortable. I don't think you could go wrong if you bought the Sleep Better 3-inch or thicker for a mattress that hard and uncomfortable to degin with.

I have a double pillow top queen mattress and the queen size mattress top fit great. Not sure how deep your mattress is or if tou will need the 3" foam with this pad, I would recommend getting the full size for a full size mattress though

Then this is not what you want but if you are to add 3-4'' mattress topper this topper had the depth to cover it. I also need a 3-4" topper and am happy I have this already to use to put on top of it. I like it.

It depends. For me, 2 pillows would be too much, but 1 pillow is not quite ideal. If anything, I would get a thin down pillow as a 2nd pillow for side sleeping. The Sleep Innovations pillow has a memory foam + down alternative, so it doesn't compress enough to use 2 of those pillows. I am doing fine with 1 pillow, but I sleep on my back a lot.

I have not found the sleep innovation 4" topper hot. I love sleeping on it and I can honestly say, I have not slept so well in a long time. I love this topper. Amen

I agree with Chris. My bed is really firm and also new, and I find the topper makes it more comfortable. It's a medium amount of "squish," so if you want an ultimate pillowtop feel, maybe go with a thick all memory foam topper.
