    It might be worth checking what the density of this is. Unless a minimum of 65Kg/m2 then (so I understand) they are rubbish.

    I'm also told that the actual memory foam should be between 2 and 3 inches thick. Less, and there's no benefit from the foam. More and it will be too hot and therefore uncomfortable.

    Hope that helps. Please post back if you find the density.

    If they are the same as those advertised earlier in the year, they got pretty bad reviews.
    Gone ... or have I?

    60 to 70kg per m3 is the optimum, although 55 to 80kg is acceptable depending on personal preference.

    2" is the optimum, but you can go up to 2.5" (no more).
