Hello!

Given what I've read so far, comments are very informative and helpful. Many thanks for your time and effort.

Here is my situation. My wife and I have been using a pillow top mattress (Sealy) for more than 4 years. The mattress started sagging, making us feel uncomfortable and tired even after long hours of sleep (indentations on both sides with a bump in the middle). Unfortunately, I don't think they are severe enough for a warranty coverage. I now realize I should not purchased a pillow top in the first place.

Anyway, I was thinking about getting a topper as a "temp" solution (I don't intend to buy a new mattress within the next year). Here are my questions:

Can I use a topper on top of a pillow-top mattress? If yes, can it be a memory foam or should it be a latex one, or else? (and why?)

If not, can I use the other side of the mattress (non-pillow side) instead with a topper (and which type?)? How about the option of getting rid of the pillow top and replacing it with a topper?

Any advice would be really appreciated. Thanks!
