What are you all using for covers on these latex toppers? Or can you use them under sheets without a cover?

My latex topper fits perfectly under my zipped up FloBed mattress zipped up cover.  Latex needs to be covered.  I love the new mattress cover I was sent in September.  I have room for up to a 2" topper since that is what comes with the mattress. I actually like the way it feels with the 1" topper and everything is really perfect but the Overstock topper is cheap and I want a sturdier one and I really wish I had a little more cushion on my shoulders but I can live with it now but if this topper from Overstock does not last, I would like to have options available now so I will not be stuck.

I love everything about my latex bed so far but wish I had a 1.25&quot; soft topper. I love my 1&quot; Overstock Topper but it is not that sturdy and is falling apart and is a little small for the bed. I have been reading about this sale only good until Monday. Those that have the Brylane 1&quot; latex topper, do you think the ILD is softer than the Overstock or the same? What do you think the ILD is? Is it man-made latex, blended latex or natural latex do you think?  Do you have any idea if this is Dunlap latex processing, Talalay latex processing or neither?  Does the latex topper fit the size of the mattress or is it a little small like the Overstock topper that is a little short on all sides?  Does the topper have a smell when it arrives and if it does, how long does it take to go away?  IS there one big piece for the Queen or King size or it the topper glued?  </p><p>I am still not sure since it is 1&quot; and not 1.25&quot; or 1.5&quot; but maybe until I have time to call Dave to see if he can find me a softer latex topper than the 1.2&quot; he got me that is wonderful but the 24 ILD seems to squishy to me and I do not sink in enough to feel the very firm support underneath that I love unless I put a 44 ILD under it and then it is too hard but still squishy. Then I go back to my 1&quot; topper with the 36 ILD over the 39 ILD over the 44 ILD and feel this is very comfortable and I can live with this and rather err on the firm side than too soft due to my car accident causing the 5 herniated disks. I really think about a 17 to 20 ILD over a 38 ILD (if there is a 36 ILD that averages higher) over the 39 ILD over the 44 ILD would be best for me in about 1.25&quot; thickness but I doubt if anything like this is made.  :) </p><p>I like that there is only a tiny fee to return it if it is not what I want. I wish the sale was for another week since I want to call Dave first and see if he has any ideas.

If you use the 20% coupon--and there's always a coupon, it's pretty much like free shipping. I'm actually going to order one tonight! I think I can stand 1&quot; of soft Talalay, even if I have to stick it under the memory foam to deaden any latent jiggle. For that price I can afford to experiment. If I don't use it  now I'll just put it away until I dissect my mattress and replace the PU crap.
