A mattress and pillowtop assembly includes a reversible, invertible mattress which may have a generally horizontal top and with generally vertical sides extending between the top and bottom to define a central space containing supporting and cushioning components. The mattress also includes a number of spaced, generally vertically extending straps, the opposite ends of which are connected to the exterior of the sides of the mattress adjacent the top and bottom. The straps are used in lifting, turning and inverting the mattress to extend its utility. A pillowtop extends over the top of the mattress, releasably held in place by two sets of connectors. The first set comprises a number of spaced connectors anchored to the periphery of the pillowtop and extending outwardly therefrom. The second set comprises an equal number of spaced rings slidably mounted on the lifting straps for easy movement between the mattress top and bottom. The rings preferably bear T-shaped fittings while the first set of connectors preferably bear generally U-shaped fittings releasably engageable with the T-shaped fittings. When the mattress is to be inverted, the first and second sets of connectors are disengaged from each other, the pillowtop is removed and the mattress is then inverted, after which the pillowtop is reconnected through the connector sets to the surface of the mattress which is now the top.
