Memory Foam Density=Quality,

I gave this product 3 stars because, I returned it before even opening really- so I don't think it is fair to give it 1-2 stars since I didn't give it a full trial. However, when it comes to memory foam, one of the key factors in deciding the quality of the foam is the density. The higher the density, the better the quality. A top quality topper is usually about 5-5.5 lbs per cubic foot. This is going to be a firmer (more supportive) foam with more of a gel-like feel to it. 5 lb. foam will also last a longer period of time, generally speaking.
Medium quality foam is about 4 lbs per cubic foot. As the foam becomes less dense, it is softer and may not last as long. Some people actually prefer the 4 lb foam over the 5, due to the softness. If you go much lighter than 4 lbs though, you will be lacking in quality. I personally look for 4 lb. foam, minimum.
I bought this with high hopes, since you can calculate a topper's density if you have the dimensions, and...Read more

I was really dissappointed in the quality of the Comfort Clinic topper. It doesnt state what density this memory foam is made of, but it is not very supportive at all. Cannot recommend this product at all.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Comfort Clinic 2-Inch VE Memory Foam Mattress Topper, King (Kitchen)
Bought this and have had it about a week or so. My bed was pretty comfortable before, but my guest room has a pillow-top mattress and I was a little jealous of how nice and soft it always felt. I was here purchasing something else, and wanted to get another item when I remembered feeling one of these memory foam mattresses while shopping for a couch. I went ahead and got this one off of Amazon since the price was right.
Anyway, slapped it on the bed, waited for it to expand (it comes in a very small box, with the foam mattress rolled up and compressed.) After it expanded I noticed that it wasn't the same size as the mattress. It's short by like an inch on every side. The instructions say this is on purpose, although what purpose it serves is beyond me, other than to be annoyingly smaller than the mattress. It's definitely noticeable if you sleep with one or both hands under your pillow, because there's a gap between the headboard and the foam topper.
The topper...Read more
