Can this pad be used over a Serta Gel mattress?

I would contact Serta directly and ask them, because you wouldn't want to ruin your mattress.

I just contacted Serta customer service at 1-888-557-3782. I have a Serta Perfect Sleeper with Gel memory foam. After consulting with a 'manufacturing team', the customer sales rep called me back and stated this should not 'melt' or damage the gel memory foam in the mattress but over time may soften it a bit and over time may not feel as firm. She stated this was just a possibility but they did not show any issues of this happening with other customers. she also stated this pad is not manufactured by Serta but another company who was approved to use the Serta name for endorsement.

I have no idea if it can be placed on top of a gel pad. Suggest contacting the manufacter directly. I LOVE the heating pad and today with windchill at zero and below, it's our go to comfort zone. Oh yes, it is a rapid producer of heat which is welcome in cold times. Good luck!

Yes I used it over a latex foam pad until an electric surge destroyed the control. I was never able to replace the control - customer service at Biddeford is non-existent. Google it and you'll see all the complaints. I gave up and switched over to Sunbeam.

Yes. I don't see why not. I bought a cover for the mattress so if you do that, the heated mattress pad won't be directly on the foam.

No. my mattress is not a really thick one and the mattress pad still works very well.

As with any fabric, the mattress pad will absorb odors, however it is machine washable. It will not heal or prevent pressure ulcers for a patient though. In general....wash it when she poops the bed and also when you wash your sheets. This pad will also absorb moisture...so if you are looking for her comfort and a clean mattress then you may still want to put a plastic cover over the existing mattress before the pad. I hope this helps to answer your question. :)

I don't see why not. My daughter loves this mattress pad. You can't really even feel the wires. Dual settings. It has been great for over a year.

That would always depend on the depth of your existing mattress and sheet type. Thi pad adds a bit of loft,probably takes up an inch or so of your sheet!Hope that helps..

Yes! My elderly Mother has been using this gel pad for 2 years. It was a great deal.

No. It is too soft. It would bottom out. I am not happy with mine. I'm thinking that the next time I add to my review I will lower its rating to a 1. I turned the pad over and it already has low places forming on the new side. I would not recommend the purchase of this pad. I am still sleeping on mine. It is better than nothing on my firm mattress.

well to be honest I am not sure. But I think this would work anyway . It is incredibly sticky stuff and not the gel that comes on the pads. For the price I would give it a shot.

This mattress pad is fine quality & made in America; I would recommend it to anyone. As for using over a foam topper I would think it would secure the foam and make it feel like part of the mattress; should work well.

Hi James, I do not think this would be advisable. The sliding and shifting of the pad would make sleeping very uncomfortable. You would be forever adjusting the mattress pad under your sheets. BL

Sorry, I have never used a mattress pad. I guess if you use a fitted bed sheet, the pad will stay in position over the encasement. I used the mattress and box spring encasement to get rid of the bedbugs. I hope this helps.

It could be used but might be easier to try a small amount of silicon sealant on the back of the pad, spread very thinly (should have the same effect)

I am using this on a Cal king Memory Foam mattress. Perhaps a thinner model might be a better fit for you. My mattress requires deep pocket sheets. Good luck.

Yes you can, especially the connector at the foot of the bed. We have a sleep number split king which I love but these heated pads are thin so you feel the wires and connector. Also the thin nylon mesh type material used to make the sides will tear easily. The elastic is too stretchy so not a snug fit. I recommend Beautyrest brand as that was my last king which is 10 years old and is still in use plus held up to washing each year after use.
