Hi Jenniskinni--I just read your mattress review, and I have a question, if you have time to answer. The pillowtop on my mattress has developed two deep sags where my husband and I sleep, and I'm thinking about removing it, and replacing it with a mattress pad, so I wondered if you had any pointers about the process. I'm also curious about what kind of surface you found under the pillow top--is it pretty unfinished, or will the mattress pad be enough to make it usable? Thanks in advance--cheri@deepgraysea.com
