Pillow Top
A
pillow top is an added layer of soft padding stitched to the top of a mattress. This layer can be made from various types of materials including wool, silk, foam, latex,
memory foam, gel or air-filled vinyl. The main purpose of a
pillow top is to provide additional comfort and cushioning to the sleeper. It creates a softer sleep surface and can make a firm mattress feel softer. A
pillow top mattress is typically more expensive than a regular mattress due to the extra materials and workmanship involved in its construction.
