We had stayed in a hotel with a tempurpedic mattress and enjoyed the experience. Since I'd purchased a mattress only a year precious, I was reluctant to get a new one so soon, even though the one I'd bought turned out to be too soft. My hope was that the topper would firm things up. That did not happen. From the first night it was like sleeping on a very squishy marshmallow. Neither my husband nor myself felt comfortable. I ended up giving it away. Expensive lesson learned.
We've had a Tempur-Pedic mattress for 12 years. I've recently found that the mattress did not feel as supportive as it was when we first bought it. I'm not sure if it's because the mattress is getting older or because I am! We purchased this topper with the hope that we could avoid buying a new mattress, an expense we weren't prepared to undertake at this time. The topper was the perfect solution and we are very happy with our purchase.
