The 10cm Microfibre Mattress Topper Extra Deep is one of the mattress toppers we stock at Daffodil Collections. It sits in our Microfibre Toppers range, and this is the short version of what you need to know before you choose a size.
How to choose
A topper changes the surface of a bed, not its support. If the mattress underneath has gone soft in the middle, a topper will follow that dip rather than fill it — what a topper fixes is a mattress that is too firm, or a surface that has stopped feeling comfortable.
Depth is the decision. A few centimetres softens a mattress that is close to right; a deeper one is a bigger change and needs a deeper fitted sheet over the top of it. Measure the mattress, add the topper, and buy the sheet to that number.
The sizes it comes in
UK bed names are consistent between retailers; what is not consistent is the mattress underneath them, so measure yours before ordering. These are the sizes this one is made in, with the mattress each is cut for.
| Size | The mattress it fits |
|---|---|
| Single | 90 x 190 cm (3ft x 6ft 3in) |
| Small Double (4ft) | 120 x 190 cm (4ft x 6ft 3in) |
| Double | 135 x 190 cm (4ft 6in x 6ft 3in) |
| King | 150 x 200 cm (5ft x 6ft 6in) |
| Super King | 180 x 200 cm (6ft x 6ft 6in) |
If your bed falls between two of these, size up: a fitted sheet that is slightly generous tucks, and one that is slightly tight pulls its corners off in the night.
What the numbers mean
10cm is the depth of the item itself. On a topper that is the number that decides how much it changes the bed: a few centimetres soften a mattress that is close to right, where a deeper one is what you reach for when the mattress underneath has gone hard.
Looking after it
Microfibre washes warm and dries fast, which is most of its appeal. Keep it off a high heat — the fibre is a polyester and high temperatures glaze it — and wash it apart from towels, because it picks up lint from everything.
Always follow the care label on the item itself where it differs from this — the label knows what is in the fabric, and we would rather you trusted it than us.
For hotels, B&Bs and holiday lets
Bedsheets for hotels and B&Bs are washed at a temperature and a frequency no household matches, so the things that matter are the seams, the elastic and how the colour holds. That is why the hospitality trade buys in quantity and in one colour: a matched stock of quality hotel beddings is what makes a linen cupboard workable.
If you are buying for a business, our trade account is where the wholesale beddings pricing lives — the terms are on that page and they are read from the account, not from this article.
