Feather mattress toppers are used for added comfort to a bed and are often referred to as pillow top mattress pad or a mattress topper, amongst other names. Feather mattress toppers are made similar to quilts. They have stitched divisions, so the feather filling doesn't move around. The topper may flatten after awhile, but all it takes is a quick shaking to fluff it back out. They come in a variety of styles and comfort levels, giving the buyer many options. The consumer must decide what price he wants to pay based on style, and luxury level since each person's comfort level is different. Another factor to consider when purchasing a feather mattress pad is if it will be comfortable for the other person who shares the bed. It usually will be comfortable for both people because these toppers are known to reduce tossing and turning, causing less sleep disturbance.

Some mattresses are too firm, making it uncomfortable for those who experience joint or muscle pain. Feather mattress pads can reduce the stress on the body by adding extra padding to the bed. This item will ease body aches and pains. The mattress topper provides additional cushion for the best level of comfort. For those people who like to be swaddled, it is an ideal purchase. Many people believe they have to buy a new or expensive mattress to get a good night's sleep, but this is not so. Sometimes, all it takes is enhancing what is already available. Feather toppers are a great addition to a mattress. They can also extend the life of a mattress, causing it to feel like a new mattress.

An individual should decide how much he or she wants to spend when selecting a new feather mattress cushion. Prices will vary, greatly. The buyer will not have to purchase all new bedding when adding this item to their mattress. The mattress pad selected will fit under the regular bedcovers. The benefits of this mattress accessory includes: hypoallergenic options, they are highly durable, soft, cozy, keep the body temperature cool, and may be machine washable. The benefits of this topper will be impressive.

Selecting and Caring for a Feather Bed?

If your mattress is a bit too firm for your liking or your current pillow-top has lost it’s cushioning, a feather bed may be just what you need to make your current mattress more comfortable. A feather bed topper is considered a luxury item and it takes only one night’s rest on one to see why. Feather filled bedding is soft, yet supportive and provides excellent insulation while conforming to the contours of the body. When shopping for and using a feather bed, there are a few key things to consider. For those shopping for a feather bed, keep price in mind when choosing the type of feather filling. There are two basic types of feather filling available; actual feathers from birds such as ducks and geese and the under down from the same birds. Down is typically much more expensive than actual feathers, therefore, a feather bed that is comprised of mostly down will be much more costly than a bed that is an even mix. For an even more affordable option, choose a feather bed that is made up of almost entirely feathers, with just a small amount of down. Once a shopper has selected the desired feather bed, it is important to follow a few simple rules to ensure that the bed is properly cared for. The first step in properly caring for a feather bed is to remove it from any packaging shortly after purchase, and allow it to “breathe” or air out. This will allow any odors that may have developed during manufacturing or packaging to dissipate along with any humidity that may be present. The next step in caring for your feather bed is to fluff the feathers by lifting and shaking the bed, allowing the feathers to separate and spread out. This step can and should be done not only before the first use, but each time the bed linens are changed. This step will help to prevent the feathers from clumping and will prolong the life of the feather bed. Feather bed toppers can be dry cleaned when necessary. If cared for properly, a feather bed can transform a common mattress into a luxurious retreat.
