Creating a Luxury Mattress

Amazon.com
Flipping the mattress is the first place to start when building a luxury bed. Not only will it feel new again, but it adds years to the life of a mattress. To add freshness, sprinkle baking soda over the top and let it sit for an hour then vacuum it off.

Westin Hotels offers its guest a 13-inch pillow-top queen size mattress and box spring unit for $1275. To recreate their concept we suggest selecting a memory foam mattress topper or a feather mattress topper.

Feather or Foam?

Deciding on a feather or a memory foam mattress topper is a matter of personal preference.

Memory foam mattress toppers (four inches or higher) help relieve pressure points and will improve the feel of a not-so-comfortable older mattress.

Feather toppers are fluffy and soft and will enhance a mattress which is in good condition.

Mattress toppers are a cost-effective way of adding a more luxurious feel to your bed and can add years of life to an older mattress. When deciding on how thick of a topper to get, remember that the thicker you go, the more bed linens will cost to cover it.

Suggested Products

We found the Visco Elastic Memory Foam Queen Size Mattress Topper which is four-inches of memory foam for $130.00, regularly $389.95. We found a Quilt-Top Baffle Box Featherbed on sale for $79.98, regularly $169.00.
