Comparison of Mattress Toppers

Which topper suits you best depends on your personal sleep preferences. The Micropocket Topper Cold Foam offers firm support and a fresh sleeping climate, while the Micropocket Topper Latex feels softer and provides pressure relief. Looking for that luxurious Van der Valk hotel feeling? Then the Topper Suite is a comfortable choice with a wonderfully soft feel.

1. Side sleepers

• Best choice: Suite Topper Latex
• Why: As a side sleeper, you need a topper that allows your shoulders and hips to sink in deeply enough to keep your spine aligned. Latex is naturally highly elastic and offers excellent pressure relief. It smoothly contours to your body, preventing pressure points around the shoulder area.

2. Back sleepers

• Best choice: Suite Topper Cold Foam or Van der Valk Topper - Classic
• Why: Back sleepers benefit from medium-firm support to prevent the lower back from sagging too much (the so-called 'hammock effect'). The cold foam toppers from Valk Store provide active counter-pressure and good resilience, ensuring a stable, horizontal alignment of the spine.

3. Stomach sleepers

• Best choice: Suite Topper Cold Foam or Van der Valk Topper - Classic

• Why: Stomach sleepers need the firmest surface. If a topper is too soft, the back arches, which can lead to lower back pain. Cold foam is ideal for this because it feels firmer and more compact than latex, keeping your body well-supported without sinking in too deep.

4. Tossers and turners

• Best choice: Suite Topper Cold Foam

• Why: Cold foam (such as the HR40 variant in the Suite line) has high resilience. This means the material bounces back instantly when you turn over. This makes moving in bed much easier compared to materials that react slowly.
