I have a mattress that after sleeping for a while my back hurts. Would this work so that I wouldn't have back pain? Is there a cushion/pillow top?

This mattress pad does have a little bit of padding, but it's not firm enough to provide extra support. It's more for luxury and comfort. Hope this answers your question.

It is a very nice mattress cover. It will protect the mattress; was up well and add a feel of rich ess tot he bed. It does not provide any extra support

Very similar to mattress pad with just a bit of padding. Very comfortable but not dense enough for any support

I personally would not use this pad for helping back pain. This particular mattress pad I returned because it did not match what was pictured. For helping with back pain, a memory foam mattress TOPPER not a mattress pad would be the best. However, if your mattress is too old, and needs replacing, no topper is going to help. So first determine if your mattress needs replacing. Then I would look into getting the best memory foam topper I could afford. For my son, I got a tempurpedic mattress topper. It has helped quite a bit. Remember you need a topper not a mattress pad. A pad is just a covering for the mattress. It is not made to give substantial padded comfort to your back.

NO! As I stated this cushion needs major improvements for the ultimate comfort in mind. Since it is too hard by itself, this cushion would greatly benefit from both top & bottom layers of thick latex memory foam as well as a strong but soft cloth cover! DO NOT BUY!

Yes, it will still work. You might not be as comfortable but the important thing is to keep pressure off your sore and this should still work for what you need it to do. My dad, who used this item, sleeps on his back but based on how it looks, I think it should still work for side sleepers.

This foam Is very firm. i don't believe it would be comfortable to sleep on. It is great as a seat cushion.

I don't lie flat so tried this to see if the PadPillow would work. I am not heavy, so have no stigma to rest it on, but I put a small pillow underneath at the back to prop it forward, and it worked fine. I may try this position for myself.

Hi, Katherine!I don't have a pillowtop, but I don't see why not. I'll warn you, this mattress is VERY firm. I ended up buying the firm 3" and put it on top of the 5" extra firm. Now I sleep wonderfully with no hip pain ( I am thin and have bony hips). Also, here's the whole picture: I have my low profile boxspring, then my 13" mattress, then the 5" foam and the 3" on top of that! I have to really lift my knee to hop in, but I love it! High and comfortable! I sincerely hope these mattress toppers work for you; I have not regretted buying mine. I'll be ordering more for my husband soon.Warm regards,Jane Hi, Katherine!I don't have a pillowtop, but I don't see why not. I'll warn you, this mattress is VERY firm.

My back does not ache in the morning since I added to my bed. I have a new mattress that is too firm which is why I bought the foam topper and I love it. If you have a very old mattress that is in bad shape then the topper can only do so much to help.

I am a tummy sleeper as well, and have found my pillow is a bigger problem than the bed. I don't sink into this bed much at all (it's nicely supportive) so my back/neck is more bothered when my pillow is too thick. I've found a thin pillow is best to avoid the arching that causes aches and pains. I use a hull pillow so I can adjust the thickness, and between that and this bed my back has given me very little trouble.

It is comfortable enough without a mattress topper. My head doesn't hurt when I lay on my back so I don't think yours will either.

We bought a mattress similar to what you describe and it had several layers of memory foam on the top. It was not firm enough for us, We turned it over and it is much better. We also bought the foam you mention. I already answered that it wasn't as firm as we were led to believe. Our piece had no cover,cracked easily when rolled up. Both our purchases were from Amazon but to send these products back just is not worth the effort. They are not typical of the many things we have bought from Amazon. My conclusion to answer your question is " it wouldn't be firm enough for us".

Yes I bought it for my mother and she sleeps in it when her back hurts. Hope this helps.

I would suggest giving it a try. Your feet are supposed to hang off the edge, but if you push it under your behind, you'll have more extension. I think it's ok if your feet lay on top of the cushion; often find myself in that position when I wake.

I believe this mattress will help I no longer wake up with aches and pains I bought one for my daughter who suffers from back pain she says she feels terrific when she wakes up in the morning no more pain I hope this helps

Soft, The deeper your body sinks the more support it provides. If you need something extra soft you could purchase one of those pillow tops.

I honestly can't answer your question if this cushion will help your back and hip pain. It has helped me, especially in the car. I've bought several of this style of cushion. Bed, Bath, and Beyond has one in the store that I bought because I had to have it that day. It works but is not as thick as this one and therefore doesn't provide as much cushion.

Nope ! This thing SOLVED my backache problems ! Mine is on top of a new firm mattress.
