I like toppers because they are easier to replace than a whole mattress. If the base is solid but too firm, a topper gives flexibility. If the mattress is too soft, a topper usually will not solve it.
Is a cheap mattress okay if you add a good topper later?

I’m trying to save money and thought maybe I could buy a firm budget mattress and add a topper if it feels too hard. Is that a smart plan?

Be careful because the cost of mattress plus topper can get close to a better mattress. I did this and ended up buying two toppers before finding one I liked. It worked eventually, but it was not as cheap as I expected.
A firm supportive mattress plus a topper can work well. The key is that the mattress underneath must be supportive and not sagging. A topper can add comfort, but it cannot fix a bad support core.
