A mattress topper is a wonderful way to enhance the comfort of your mattress. Our Peace Lily Mattress Toppers will hold into place by the weight however for added security we have a few simple tips that can assist in adding that extra bit of security so you enjoy a restful night's sleep.
Steps & Tips for Securing Your Mattress Topper
1. Keep the surface of the mattress and topper clean
This might be stating the obvious, but the first thing to do is ensure your mattress and topper are clean and free of debris. By having the surface clean, it will be easier for the mattress topper to stay in place. We recommend using a fitted mattress protector that covers both your topper and mattress as this will help keep both items clean from any stains or life's little accidents that can get into the material. If you already have a mattress protector, clean it regularly to extend the life of both the mattress and topper.
2. Make sure it is aligned with the mattress
Before you start trying the different methods below, make sure the topper is fully aligned with each corner and the edges of your mattress. This will help prevent any shifting during the night which can create an uneven sleeping surface. Take this opportunity to smooth out any wrinkles or folds in the topper so you can sleep peacefully without bumps.
3. Secure with sheet straps
Another way you can secure the mattress topper is with sheet straps (or sheet fasteners). They are a great way to make sure your topper doesn't move around while you sleep. You can ideally attach these to your mattress protector and have them connected underneath the mattress to ensure that the topper and the mattress remain together. These are easy to find online so it can be relatively simple to try this method out.
4. Use a fitted sheet
The simplest solution is to use a fitted sheet that can secure the topper to the mattress. A deep-pocket fitted sheet, designed to accommodate both your mattress and topper is ideal. The elastic edges of the fitted sheet will hold the topper in place, preventing any significant shifts while you sleep. The Peace Lily Organic Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheet Set offers the perfect blend of silky comfort.
5. Check it Regularly
To keep the topper in place you should check it regularly to ensure it stays secure. Continue to check the alignment of the topper and adjust it as needed. If you notice it has notably shifted, look to re-secure the topper by using the methods mentioned above. While checking it regularly, it is important to rotate and flip the topper every 2 months to maintain its shape and lifespan. You should also follow the care instructions provided to keep the mattress topper clean so it can continue to support your sleep effectively for years to come.
