Can I buy king size memory foam topper and cut it into 2 piece for double twin bed?
Is it ok if I cut the memory foam topper (king size) into 2 twin size bed because both price are equal. Actually i’m not sure cutting the mattress will effect the bed or not. Thanks for helping. Does anyone ever do this pls tell me……thx again
Hi!
You can find standard US mattress sizes here:

Notice that mattress sizes can vary 1-2″. Also, many cheap mattress toppers sold locally in stores are often cut 3-5 inches too short and to narrow.
If you cut the king down the middle, along the length of the memory foam mattress topper, the 2 resulting pieces will be 38″ x 80″. These 2 pieces would be perfect for a twin XL mattress. To make them fit a twin mattress, cut another 5″ off the length. A twin mattress is 38″ x 75″.
Memory foam is very easy to cut. You can do it with scissors or a sharp knife. But it’s hard to do it well (straight and pretty). I’ve cut many pieces of memory foam down with both a knife and scissors.
I sell foam toppers in my online store:

In the past I’ve tested memory foam toppers from many different suppliers. Some I liked, some I didn’t, and some I thought were just ok. Well friends and family have heard about the little stash I’ve collected here in my warehouse, with nothing to do with it, so they gladly take it off my hands.
But some the king / queen pieces were cut down to twin or full toppers for my friends guest or kids rooms. Use a measuring tape to find where to make the cuts, mark a line with a pencil, and then try to cut as straight as you can. The piece of foam looks a little jagged, but when you put it on the bed, and put a fitted sheet over the top of it, it looks fine. You can put the cut edge toward a wall and you will never notice it.
Happy cutting : )
