pillow-top

Plush bed surface

Pillow-top describes a mattress with an extra layer of padding sewn onto its surface, creating a plusher sleeping area: We upgraded to a pillow-top mattress.

The cushioned layer sits permanently attached, unlike a removable mattress topper.

The term also applies to similar constructions in furniture upholstery.
