This generous depth provides ample cushioning but doesn’t ever make you feel like you’re sinking too far into the bed. What’s more, mesh walls around the sides of the topper help to improve airflow and ensure you remain cool, even if you happen to share your bed with a human radiator.

In this review, we take a closer look to see if the Silentnight Airmax Topper is a great addition to your mattress, why it's so popular and if it's really as good as people say. The Airmax collection also includes pillows and duvets to keep you comfortable in every season. Silentnight are the UK’s most trusted bed brand with over 75 years’ experience in creating products for every sleeper. Silentnight Airmax 800 mattress topper is intended for all those who want to improve the comfort of their mattress – the topper will give you the impression that you are sleeping on a new mattress. In addition, it is a cooling and a hypoallergenic topper that is used for improved air circulation and that is very helpful in the fight against mites and allergies. About the company Although it’s made from 100% polyester, it’s actually made up of two layers – the top one being extra soft, while the core provides the firmness. So there’s no need to worry about the kind of sponginess that can leave you feeling suffocated and we found it’s particularly good if you’re prone to aches and pains. The elastic straps keep it secure on the bed and it’s nice and warm (a good job as you can’t use an electric blanket with it), although that can be a downside if you get clammy at night. The Silentnight Company always tends to combine its rich heritage and traditional approach to the modern breakthroughs in the field of mattress manufacturing. The company is environmentally conscious and uses only the high-quality and tested materials for sleepers' good night's sleep.SUPREME COMFORT: Breathes new life into your mattress by adding an extra layer of cushioned comfort. The Silentnight Airmax Topper as its name suggests is a revolutionary topper geared at providing the most optimal sleeping climate with a temperature-regulating function. It is designed to increase airflow and allow for extra breathability. BREATHABLE: Experience unparalleled breathability with Airmax technology for a comfortably refreshing night's sleep.

When we compare Silentnight Airmax 500 and Silentnight Airmax 800 mattress toppers, we can say safely that the latter provides more of an additional comfort for the existing mattress and better durability. Thanks to its unique design, Airmax 500 can be washed many times in a washing machine and it won't shrink or get damaged. Therefore, if you want an extra durability for a bit higher price tag, we highly recommend Silentnight Airmax 800 mattress topper. Though we’ve called this a “cooling mattress topper”, no topper will work to actively cool you down throughout the night. But as silk can help to regulate body temperature, it’s a better option than memory foam for those who get too hot during the night. We like the fact that this topper also has an added bottom chamber that’s filled with a generous layer of gently supportive microfibre – the upshot of which is that it’s much comfier than many of the thinner pure silk toppers available. The elastic straps keep it firmly in place, too. And as you are much less likely to perspire when sleeping on silk, the silk filling remains free from dust mites – great for allergy sufferers, who will also be pleased to learn that silk is naturally hypoallergenic.This aside, the Emma Flip Topper did add a good degree of comfort to a rather rigid and slightly bumpy mattress, so we have to give it credit for that. The only issue we had was that the topper we tested (a size double) didn’t quite cover the full surface area of our mattress. This doesn’t impact its comfort greatly, but it does slightly undermine the topper’s edge support.
