Should I get a mattress topper or a mattress protector?

If you’re looking to make your bed thicker or more comfortable, choose the Joey Mattress Topper.
The Joey Mattress Topper is for upgrading the comfort of your bed. If you’re currently sleeping on a bed that’s too-firm or too-soft, the Joey Mattress Topper can adjust it to a perfect medium-firmness. Plus, the topper will thicken your mattress by a whole 6cm (2.4 inches) for you to achieve luxuriously plush comfort (and it’s aesthetically pleasing too!).

If you’re looking to protect your bed against stains, choose the Joey Mattress Protector.
The Joey Mattress Protector is, as its name implies, for protecting your bed against all dust, dirt, spills, and liquids. Our mattress protector is 100% waterproof, so it comes in handy if you like to snack in bed, or if you have pets, kids, or other special needs. It’s also made with bamboo, which is impressively noise-and-rustle-free and gentle on the skin.

Of course, the best possible care for your bed would be to get both! The Joey Mattress Protector can go over on top of the Joey Mattress Topper for the most complete protection, and this will make your bed comfier and much more long-lasting for the years to come.
