Are you supposed to use it bumps up and with sheets directly on top of the pad? Do you feel the bumps? Or do you need another mattress cover over it?

I use it bumps up, like a hospital egg crate, and I did put a mattress cover over it. If you buy, I hope you enjoy it as much as we are ours.

We use it with the bumps up and and a mattress pad between it and the bottom sheet. Can't feel the bumps. Good luck! I don't know if there is a right or wrong way. We just feel it is cleaner with the mattress pad over it.

I put a regular mattress pad over the cloud foam mattress topper. Then my normal sheets. The pad and sheets don't affect the comfort in a negative way. Adds more cushion I suppose.

Place it under the mattress cover. This is still a good way to protect your mattress and have a comfortable separation between between to the topper/mattress and your sheets. I put a thin mattress pad cover over the mattress and topper combination and then a very plush one over the whole ball of wax. I couldn't be happier!

You do not need an additional mattress pad. The pebble top is a matress pad :)

Sorry, I have never used a mattress pad. I guess if you use a fitted bed sheet, the pad will stay in position over the encasement. I used the mattress and box spring encasement to get rid of the bedbugs. I hope this helps.

We Had A Mattress Pad So We Used It. But I Do NoT Know If You Really Need One. The Top Is A Soft Velvety Top Not Plastic.

This goes on top, the mattress pad version is the one you sleep on top of. That being said I find it best to put this between the sheet and whatever blanket you're using. Trapping all the warm awesomeness in :-)

I also have a memory foam on top and I do not have an issue with it feeling too hot and I over heat pretty easy. I do have sheets that don't keep heat and I run a fan on me at all times when I'm sleeping.

This mattress pad is just a cover. It doesn't really add "extra" comfort or softness to the mattress. We just bought a new mattress from Amazon...It was delivered in a box. Medium firm 10' foam...and I bought the mattress pad to protect it. FINALLY we are getting restful sleep. If you can swing a new mattress...I would do that first. Sorry I am not much help.

If you are talking about putting the topper on top of your padding that is built into your mattress, like a comfort top, then absolutely no problem. if you're talking about putting it on top of another piece of padding that might slip, I'm not so sure about that because this padding does move around some... very little but definitely a little bit. As for the sheet, the deep mattress sheets will fit very comfortably over this mattress topper. If you put it over topper and padding, it should still fit, but, of course, I'm sure it would be a very tight fit. Incidently, the topper is awesome!! My daughter had a very hard, uncomfortable mattress....brand new and harder than she thought it was going to be. It has completely alleviated the problem and I find her very bed very comfortable and I like the soft bed. Enjoy!!

No, this serves as the only sheet you need. I would suggest a mattress pad laid underneath, of course. Just the flat sheet type of mattress pad, not the fitted type. Buy an extra zip sheet!

Not at all. I do have a standard mattress pad on it though. Nothing special just to protect the mattress. Very comfortable.

There is no cover with this and I don't think one is available. I just used a mattress pad over it

It goes over the mattress like a sheet with corners that tuck down under. Mine goes down along the sides but stays in place. Then put the sheet on top of this. I love it. Extra padding under the sheet makes it nicer for better sleeping also.

Hi Loren, no it doesn't come with a cover, but the mattress pad I originally had fit over it and tucked under the mattress, sheets go over that and it is extremely comfortable.

If your sheet barely fits now and you want one sheet to cover both the topper AND your current mattress, I would suggest using a flat sheet and tucking it in around the entire mattress or get a set of deep pocket sheets. Another alternative is to just put your fitted sheet on the topper and tuck in the rest as you will be sleeping on that and not the regular mattress. Best wishes.

I actually bought the cool shield mattress protector first since my toddler sneaks into our room at night & on many occasions has wet our bed, but I also have the mattress cover that came with the memory foam pad as well. It seems like overkill, but I don't want my mattress pad to get ruined & the cover they sent me helps the over heating I was having while sleeping on this & I'm not sure that alone would be enough protection against my toddler wetting the bed every other night! With all that plus a fitted sheet it does not affect the comfort whatsoever.
