Mattress topper is excellent, feels weightless laying on it BUT it came with a horrible chemical smell that kept me awake all night. Ripped it back off the next morning. Hopefully a week or two in the laundry room will air it out :|
I have what is called DISH of the spine where calcification of my lower spine results in spinal fusion. To avoid pain while sleeping I must sleep on my side, never on my back. Over the years I have kept buying and changing mattresses and toppers to stop extreme pain from developing during the night (usually resulting in having to take Tramadol to stop the pain and allow me to sleep). The mattresses/toppers have always been firm since I thought a soft one would just allow my spine to misalign. Then I read about material developed by Tempur-Pedic for NASA's use in space programs and then continued to develop it for commercial use. So, after reading user reviews I decided to try their Tempur Adapt + Cooling Topper. The first night I slept on it: no pain. I did get some pain the second night, but it was due to how I had adjusted my body that second night to the new topper. I had read some reviews that indicated it was difficult to move around on the topper and I found it could be unless you figured out how best to do it: the second night I had not yet figured out how to adjust my body to the best sleeping position. After that second night I have never had another night with any pain (and no need for the Tramadol). This is so great after years of night pain. My Termpur topper is on top of a 11-inch hybrid firm mattress. When I Can afford it I plan to purchase the Tempur ProAapt Soft mattress to replace my current hybrid and topper.
I have a tempur-pedic adapt mattress and bought this topper to help with the life of the mattress but this topper is softer than the mattress and isn't good for my husbands bad back (although for me I fall asleep fast on it). This topper slides off the mattress and I bought a non slid thin pad for underneath and it still slides. Every morning I have to go under the sheets and put the topper back into place. I will call tempur-pedic to see what they recommend. I thought this topper was firmer than the Supreme but I'm not sure now. We had a supreme mattress before and they told me the adapt mattress was firmer, so I thought the adapt topper would be firmer. Thinking about taking this off the bed completely. My husband is disappointed as he is the one who sleeps on it for his bad back.
I bought this as my mattress was getting too old and hard for my liking but I wasn't ready to splurge for a whole new mattress. I thought it was pretty comfortable at first but I like softer surfaces. I had less back pain waking up in the morning which was great. But my husband hated it. It was WAY too soft for him and he felt like he was constantly being sucked into it and starting waking up with shoulder pain. We tried to get used to it but his discomfort was getting worse and even I started feeling like I needed more support. So unfortunately it has been sitting folded up in the corner of our room because we aren't sure what to do with it. I wouldn't recommend unless you like REALLY squishy beds.
Love the Tempur-pedic Tempur-Adapt + Cooling Topper!

Having lived for about 4 years on a poor mattress and with my back pain becoming worse all the time, I bought the topper with the cooling topper. The first night it felt wonderful. By the next morning, my back felt better, and it continues to feel better. Am very thankful for this product and definitely recommend it.
I love this product! If you have an existing firm mattress in good condition and you need supportive softness for pain relief or general bliss, this is the perfect solution. This topper is super soft and perfect for side sleepers. It is great for people in pain. I love the cooling technology, it doesn't get hot under you. The only small negative is it seems to have a fragrance, nothing strong or unpleasant, it's just there but it doesn't bother me. Way smaller investment than a regular Tempurpedic mattress which in itself is worth every penny. They have brilliant technology - way superior to competing brands that I tested. I'm an instant convert to Tempurpedic. I'm enjoying this buy so so much. I'm staying in bed for a few days :-)
