The Octacell™ Aerocell® layer brings unique support, reduces pressure and thanks to the 10,000 air channels helps you get to the right sleep temperature faster. You choose whether you prefer this layer to provide you with a firmer or plusher feel. If you’re unsure, Tempur gives you plenty of time to make your decision, with a 100-night trial period. Evolved from the patented award winning Octaspring® Aerospace technology, Octacell™ is the next generation of sleep innovations. The 3D modular comfort layer at the top of the mattress is symmetrically divided across 10,000 cells to provide instant ergonomic pressure relief for your entire body and superior air circulation to help you sleep cooler, deeper and longer.

The Octasmart® Plus Mattress Topper combines three next-generation sleep technologies into one smart topper: 1. Luxurious Memory Foam The Octacell™ comfort layer is designed to support your body so perfectly, that even if you get out of bed, your partner will not feel it and so get a more restful night's sleep. There really aren't many things wrong with this one. The topper is well-made and designed, and standing at 7 cm tall; we'd say it's ideally deep for a memory foam mattress topper. Made from good-quality memory foam, the Tempur 7 offers superb levels of comfort and support. However, it does make your bed noticeably warmer so is perhaps not the best option for hotter summer nights, or for those prone to becoming too hot in bed.The Octasmart® Essentials Memory mattress cradles your body with a softer and more luxurious feel. The plush foam Octacell™ layer made from the highest quality memory foam creates a comforting sleep surface which is soothing and supportive all night long. Filling is the next most important thing to think about, and there are quite a few options out there to choose from: We use 25% less material in the Octacell TM technology and create no waste. These weight-savings contribute to our ongoing efforts to reduce CO2 for a greener planet. We also care about your health and only use materials, that are safe for your well-being. Our sleep products are all Oeko-Tex certified for your complete peace of mind. It’s important to bear in mind that a topper isn’t a fix-all solution. If a mattress is on its last legs and is starting to sag, a topper won’t do you any favours. Similarly if your mattress feels too soft, plonking a mattress topper down on it will likely only make it softer. What different fillings should I look out for?

Thousands of micro-air channels built into the sides of the cover constantly provides fresh air circulation expelling hot air and keeping your body cooler and more comfortable.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.

Evolved from the patented award winning Octaspring® Aerospace technology, Octacell™ is the next generation of sleep innovations. The 3D modular comfort layer is symmetrically divided across 10,000 cells. Octacell™ technology enhances comfort in all our Essentials products providing instant ergonomic pressure relief for your entire body and superior air circulation to help you sleep faster, deeper and longer. We've tested this topper with several mattresses, including Dormeo Octasmart Plus Mattress, several Octaspring mattresses, and a few other ones, as well. Breathability, pressure relief, durability and motion isolation Since mattress toppers are fitted as an extension on top of a mattress, rather than lying loose like a duvet or a blanket, they must match the mattress size. For reference, we’ve included the sizes below:

The topper’s cover, made from breathable and sustainable bamboo, can be removed and washed at temperatures of up to 40 degrees. The corner straps that secure the topper to your mattress are also a fantastic feature and one that we haven’t seen from many rivals. On the support side of things, we were actually pleasantly surprised just how supportive this topper is. Even though the overall support will primarily depend on your mattress, this topper will bring some significant changes to it. It will provide firmer, optimal support. You will be adequately supported, but you’ll also be gently cradled, as the topper will follow your body’s contours perfectly whilst you get the best night's sleep in a while. A few other familiar benefits that come with the topper are a machine washable cover and a 100-night trial period that gives you plenty of time to try the topper out before you decide whether or not you want to commit to it. What’s more, thanks to Emma’s regular promotional sales, you will rarely have to pay full price for it. Memory foam provides comfort and support as well as pressure relief, by moulding to the contours of your body rather than pressing on them. As such, it’s a good choice of material for those who sleep on their side, suffer from painful joints, or are easily interrupted by a partner who moves around in bed a lot. It’s noticeably softer than some of the other foam toppers we tested, so don’t expect it to completely revive a worn out mattress. And if you’re after more support, we’d ultimately recommend paying that little bit extra for the Panda topper. That said, if you’re looking to pay as little as possible, it’s still one of the cheapest memory foam toppers you’ll come across.

The OCTAsmart® Essentials memory topper will upgrade your existing mattress to first class sleep.
