Who buys it, and why
Mattress topper refers to a removable layer of memory foam, latex, down alternative or wool placed on top of a mattress to change its firmness, add comfort or extend its life. People search it to compare materials, thickness and firmness, find options for back pain or sleeping hot, and read reviews. In practice buyers are adults who want better sleep without buying a new mattress, students in dorms and people furnishing guest rooms. The category is large and sold heavily on Amazon by many brands. It offers steady buyer intent, with room for cooling materials, niche sizes and honest comparison content.
