Anyone care to comment on Foam By Mail Memory toppers?

They say the 4.5lb isn't as much temp sensitive as the 5.5lb, which is "closer" to T-Pedics patented foam (I know no one has that exact one).  They deny they're made in China (if that counts).  But it would be nice to hear from users.

BTW, I see all sorts of posts using mem foam under latex, that doesn't make sense - does it?  I thought the mem had to conform to the body and used body heat, so it had to be the top.

I have a zillion combos of FBM latex and have found that they are all firmer than their ILDs would seem.  Once I knew that I could plan better, but I would have saved $$ ordering softer at first.  So I understand this is all  very subjective anyway from my latex trials, but doesn't hurt to ask.

I purchased 2 - 4.5lb memory foam toppers from Foam By Mail.  After using for 1 month they flattened and would not expand.  I decided to weigh the mattress and found out it was not 4.5lb foam.  I purchased a 3" king pad which is 76"x80"x3" or 10.55 cubic ft.  A 4.5lb pad would therefore weigh about 47.5lbs, but my pad weighed about 36lbs.  I called and complained and they allowed me to return the pad and even paid for return shipping.  Good customer service but it was a real pain to repack the pads.  I purchased from Bergad\Isoform and have been pleased.
