Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I did a lot of research before buying. I'm 5"10, 180lbs give or take, mostly give. Hot sleeper with some arthritis. I'm using this on an older but nice futon mattress. Prior to this I was using a Mallard Memory Foam Topper,. I've had it for years and it was time for a new one. It was a good topper-my only problems with Mallard were Smell and it was heavy or difficult to move, change the sheets. The things that make the Red Nomad the best buy are: 1) No Smell. That is a big one if you've never bought a memory foam topper before. Memory Foam Toppers can smell, they may need a week to air out before you can even use it As I understand products made in China are more likely to have the smell. I have problems with allergies. If smell was going to bother me, it would have done it now. No smell. That is Huge. 2) Made in the USA, besides quality, it's about American Jobs. Nuff said. 3) It weighs 11-12 lbs. When I read that in the specifications I was concerned. I thought quality would be an issue. Quality is great. At 11-12 lbs the Red Nomad is so much easier to move. It does not come with a cover but I haven't needed one. I just use a regular sheet. I am a hot sleeper and have not felt warm. The photo is how it looked when it arrived. I think it was about 14x 22 inches rolled up. and 4) Price-it is the best priced topper I could find. I'm not neglecting the fact that it is very comfortable. I'd classify the Red Nomad is medium to firm (ish) I sleep well on an old futon mattress with the Red Nomad on top. Aches and pains have faded away, my wallet still has some money in it and my house doesn't smell like memory foam mattress topper. So maybe you haven't heard of Red Nomad or seen the name in all the reviews but it is a Great Memory foam topper. Pros Quality and Comfort No Smell Made in the USA Weight-11-12 lbs, easy to move Durability
