I know there are many threads relating to mattress toppers, but I haven't been able to find an answer to my question anywhere.

I am considering buying a mattress topper purely for the warmth/'snuggle' factor, to put on a brand new mattress. Assuming that feather or feather & down would be warmer, I have been searching around for a good deal on a good quality one, but so many reviews mention feathers poking through the cover; I am coming round to the idea of buying one filled with 'fibre'.

Can anybody give their opinion based on personal experience as to whether a fibre-filled one would be as soft and comfortable as a feather-filled?

Oh, and can I use an electric blanket on top of a mattress topper? :) (Yes, I do feel the cold)!
