Foamma 2 in x 24 in x 72 in Gel Memory Foam Base - Cooling Support

In this review of the Foamma 2 in x 24 in x 72 in High Density Gel Memory Foam Base, the bottom line is simple: it is a practical, budget-friendly solution for trimming and adding targeted comfort to couches, chairs, and DIY upholstery projects. The single biggest reason to buy is the combined layered construction that pairs a ventilated 1 in gel memory foam layer with a 2 in high density foam base, delivering a medium feel that softens pressure points while keeping a supportive core. It ships compressed in a box and is CERTIPUR-US certified, which makes it appealing for indoor projects where durability and low VOCs matter.

Key Features

• Layered construction: A 1 in ventilated gel memory foam layer over a 2 in high density support foam balances contouring comfort with underlying support for seating or padding projects.
• Cooling gel infusion: Gel infused memory foam helps regulate temperature and reduce heat buildup where the body presses most.
• Ventilated design: Perforations in the memory foam layer increase airflow through the foam to improve breathability during extended use.
• Supportive high density base: The firm high density foam provides a durable foundation with a density around 1.8 and a compression rate of 44 lb for long-lasting support.
• CERTIPUR-US certified: Made without ozone depleters, heavy metals, and regulated phthalates, with low VOC emissions for better indoor air quality.
• Versatile use: Can be trimmed or shaped to serve as a mattress topper, couch padding, recliner pad, or chair replacement foam for DIY and upholstery tasks.

Who It's For

This product suits DIYers and upholsterers who need a manageable foam block to cut to size for couch filler, chair cushions, or temporary mattress toppers. It is also a good pick for someone converting a sofa into a temporary bed or refreshing seat cushions without replacing an entire cushion core.

Those seeking a very plush, thick mattress topper or a luxury mattress substitute should look elsewhere, since this product is only 3 in total thickness and offers a medium feel with a firmer high density base rather than deep sinkage. People who need a finished cover included should note the packaging states the cover is not included.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comfortable medium feel that relieves pressure points where the gel memory foam contacts the body.
• Good airflow from the ventilated memory foam helps with temperature regulation during use.
• High density support layer offers durability and keeps cushions from bottoming out quickly.
• CERTIPUR-US certification reduces worries about heavy metals and high VOCs for indoor use.

Cons

• At 3 in total thickness some buyers find it too thin or not dense enough for a permanent mattress solution.
• Cover not included, so an additional step is required for finished upholstery or a mattress-like surface.

Our Verdict

The Foamma 2 in x 24 in x 72 in Gel Memory Foam Base is a sensible, value-oriented choice for DIY upholstery, couch padding, and temporary sleeping surfaces. Its ventilated gel layer and firm high density base strike a practical balance of pressure relief and support, and the CERTIPUR-US certification adds reassurance about indoor air quality. Buy it if you need an easily trimmed, supportive foam block; skip it if you want a thick, plush mattress replacement or a finished cover included.
