You don’t need the fancy brand name one but they are great. We bought one for our guest bed at Target last winter. 3" of memory foam with a quilted mattress pad on top. Was about $150 for a Queen. Wanted to get one for our King this year, but the product has changed to 3" but some is less dense foam and some is the “memory” foam. Very nice addition to an aging mattress but not as nice as the previous product.

On another note, the term “memory foam” has always baffled me. Why would one want a cushion or mattress to “remember” where you had pressed down the last time? Sounds like a saggy old chair or worn-out pair of shoes… I want new memory-free foam!
