The 6 reasons
Why hot sleepers choose an Ella mattress topper
At last, heat can escape from your bed
Most mattress toppers are made from dense memory foam that stores your body heat and holds onto it all night. The Ella Mattress Topper has open-cell foam and Airmesh sides, so air keeps circulating and heat doesn’t build up beneath your body.
The difference you really notice at three in the morning.
A bamboo cover that wicks away moisture
That sticky feeling on your legs often isn’t caused by the heat itself, but by moisture that has nowhere to go. The bamboo cover absorbs and wicks away moisture, neutralizes odors, and is also antibacterial. So your bed feels fresh every night.
7 cm of comfort without sinking in
The deeper you sink, the more contact you have with your mattress, and the warmer you get. That’s why our 7 cm bestseller combines two layers: 3 cm of gel-infused foam that contours to your body and 4 cm of support foam that supports you. You’ll lie comfortably on top instead of sinking in.
View the mattress toppers →Less pressure, less tossing and turning
The more you toss and turn, the hotter you get. By relieving pressure on your shoulders and hips, the topper helps you sleep more peacefully and wake up less often. The foam is hypoallergenic and certified by OEKO-TEX and CertiPUR-US, so you know exactly what you’re sleeping on.
Stays snugly in place on any mattress
A shifting mattress topper lasts about a week. This one has elastic corner straps and a non-slip underside, so it stays snugly in place on your mattress. The cover has a zipper and is machine washable, keeping things fresh in summer.
You try it in your own bed for 100 days
In a store, you can't tell how you'll sleep a month from now. That's why you sleep on the topper in your own bed for 100 days. If you're not satisfied, let us know via the returns portal and follow our return policy. So feel free to sleep on it for a night, or a hundred.

Frequently asked questions
Does a mattress topper really help with night sweats?
A breathable topper can noticeably reduce heat buildup in your mattress, so many people wake up less often because they're too hot. However, heavy night sweats can also have a physical cause, which a topper can't solve. If that's the case, talk to your doctor.
Which topper is right for me?
All toppers have the same breathable base, so your choice mainly comes down to thickness and firmness. The 5 cm topper gives your mattress a slight upgrade, the 7 cm Medium-Soft is our bestseller for side and stomach sleepers weighing up to 90 kg, the Firm 7 cm offers more support for back sleepers and those weighing 90 to 120 kg, and the 10 cm Ergo Topper offers the most comfort. If you're unsure, Ella's team will be happy to help with a call.
Can I wash the cover?
Yes, the bamboo cover has a zipper and can simply be machine-washed. That's especially handy for hot sleepers, as it keeps your bed fresh without any hassle.
How does the sleep trial work?
You sleep on the topper in your own bed for 100 days. If you're not satisfied, let us know through the returns portal and follow our return policy. That gives you plenty of time to find out what it can do for you.
When is a topper not the solution?
If your mattress is sagging or around ten years old, a topper won't fix it, and you're better off saving for a new mattress. We'd rather tell you that honestly up front than afterward.
