Since I moved into my new apartment, I've been sleeping on the rental mattress: an old-fashioned innerspring. While I had hoped to get used to its firm, inflexible feel, I've been waking up with aches and pains in my joints most mornings. Even if I could afford to buy my own mattress, I doubt my landlord would let me replace it. So, when I was assigned to test the Coop Retreat Mattress Topper, I jumped at the chance.
Known for their best-selling memory foam pillows, Coop also makes a mattress topper, filled with the same cross-cut memory foam and microfiber blend. At five inches thick, it forms a plush pillow-top to soften up your sleep surface. For the first few nights, I found the Coop Retreat Mattress Topper a little lumpy, but the foam soon flattened around my body and I was sleeping better than I had in months.
