Memory Foam Pad for College Student?

<p>Wow - thank you, many great responses. I was trying to make up my mind what to do and I thought - ah ha tap into the collective CC brain!</p>

<p>D has the regular foam with a thick mattress pad at home but especially liked the memory foam she tried but I never thought of the feather bed topper. I have a feeling that making her bed comfy will help with the transition.</p>

<p>Those of you who have the memory foam - are they pretty sturdy? I was worried that it wouldn’t hold up with being schlepped around over the years but it sounds like it is fairly sturdy. I had heard of the odor problem but that the American made ones didn’t have the odor. I think one company is Comfort Innovations or something like that - Kohls carries that one.</p>
