What is the difference between your mattress and 3 inch Thick Accu-Aire 3.3 Visco Elastic Memory by Accutex Foam?

the Visco 3" memory foam is meant to be a mattress topper, ie it goes on top of a mattress. this 3" one is much thicker than many of the regular toppers. i was hoping to use it almost like a mattress, but i found memory foam uncomfortable, so it wasn't for me.

I am not sure of any difference. I ordered my elastic memory foam mattress and have used it constantly. It is great. It responds to the original size fast and does not hold any impressions. I had major back surgery and needed one to sleep as I have to sleep always on my back. When I ordered the one I got, I got one I could afford, i.e. under $90.

This foam behaves like a dense memory foam, it deforms slower than regular foam but recovers quickly. So I guess it is a stiffer version of memory foam than what we see in pillows and mattresses. Hope this helps.

Mine took a good six hour to expand to normal size. Memory foam is memory foam. Our memory foam mattress took many hours to become useable. The better the foam the longer it takes.

I bought both , I guess the mattress cover is more depth , but there the same , but to be honest I skipped paying $1000 for new mattress using this.

I guess the best answer I can give for this is that regular memory foam feels "dryer" or "crisper" to me. It's still squishy, but you don't sink into the bed as much and it has a little bit more resistance. This gel infused one feels more dense and that makes it more squishy for some reason. I like it much better than the regular memory foam.

God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam. Only one person mentioned that the mattress was very firm and that was unfortunately after I purchased it. Damn thing kept getting harder, and I kept buying more foam toppers for comfort. Fortunately, my mom needed a new mattress and she has to have very firm. I gave her the hard 11" and ordered an 8" pressure relief memory foam and I love it. Feels so good to sleep on my side and not wake up hurting! So forget trying to "fix" that hard mattress and just get another one. You will quickly forget about the money you threw away! God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam.

I would suggest sticking with a spring mattress if you are concerned about weight/sagging. If you notice the store floor models of the solid "memoryfoams" they all have a bit of a sink from people just testing them --- I went with a combo model - individually wrapped coils/springs with only the outer layer memory foam. for us it was much better and breathes more cooler.

It hadn't occurred to me to use anything other than a nice mattress pad . . . either waterproof or not . . . since the mattress meets my "softness" requirements. I truly think that anything thicker, like some sort of topper, would defeat the purpose of the memory foam. The memory foam is designed to closely conform to the contours of the body, so I would not recommend putting a substantial barrier between myself and the top of the mattress. My previous mattress was the 7" version of the mattress and I only used a regular mattress pad for protection of its surface, as I have with this one. I hope this is of help to you. P.S. The 12" has proved to be much more satisfactory to me.

No. It's thicker than the hospital bed mattress that was supplied with the bed.

I agree with you about the memory foam mattress. After trying several mattress cover's, BINGO! This one works. It is very thin, and you will be amazed how well it keeps you cool. It also is guaranteed for 10 years! WOW!!!!!!I am so Happy I tried this product. It is Fantastic. I also purchased the pillow protectors, and they work very well. Please give them a try. If by any chance they are not for you you can return them. I bet you won't. Joannie :) Let me know what you think after trying this wonderful product. :)

The DreamFoam 3inch memory foam is very nice. It is warm, but not overly warm.I do not know the difference between gel and memory foam.

I believe it's 3" of memory foam and 3" of pressure relief foam. I researched the mattress details when I bought it. It doesn't appear on the item description, but should.

I've tried this out on a hard floor; it's definitely not an adequate mattress by itself. I think 8 inches is about the minimum thickness for a memory foam mattress.IMO, the minimum density for a stand-alone mattress should be 5lb/cu.ft. I think this product is 3lb/cu.ft. The lower density means a shorter life-span and a softer feel.IMO, the perfect memory foam bed consists of an 8 inch thick 5lb/cu.ft. density base with a 3 inch thick 3lb/cu.ft. top.If I may recommend a topper...

I can not tell you about the 8 inch version but from everything I have read the thicker the foam mattress the softer it should be. Hope this helps

I find it no different than any other mattress, but I put a thick padded mattress on it. I use 400ct cotton sheets.

Larry, I bought this to replace the mattress in my camper and have been absolutely pleased with it. I have a very $$ tempur pedic in the house that I do not sleep as well on. Hope this answers your question. I believe the thicker the mattress the more comfortable you will be.

Softer for a memory foam mattress. Very comparable to the tempurpedic cloud allura.
