I had the same prob. The manufacturer suggested an extra mattress pad on top. I put two and it worked like a charm!

Call the manufacturer, see if there is any form of a partial trade in for something else?

Michele - i live in Honolulu - 80 degrees F most days. at night, goes down to '70'sF. it's fairly warm. i use the foam pad under my mattress pad and sheet - it is comfortable, doesn't make me feel hot. i got it because i'd broken my shoulder and was in severe pain for months - the pad, plus a "body pillow" helped a lot. it seesm like good "memory foam - hasn't flattened out at all. i hope this is helpful to you. i have it on a "queen-size" bed (actually a futon mattress on a box spring). aloha from honolulu!! - john

I called Sleep Experts 214-237-5294 was and told you can use the heated mattress pad to warm the bed up, but do not leave the heat on all night or you will compromise the gel.

My memory foam bed is too hot! Will this keep me cool on top of memory foam? My bamboo pillow doesn't stay cool, and gets hot after awhile too.

We thought the same thing. I could not possibly sleep on it! This foam is so very, very hard. I advise against it for a bed.

I am currently using it with a memory foam mattress and have had no problem yet. I turn it on high for about a half hour before I go to bed and then either turn it down or all the way off, so mine isn't on the high setting for very long.

Hey...same thing happened to me. Shake it to 'fluff up' the down. Puff it w your hand too. I did that for about 10 min. Mine ended up expanding. Mine is actually too warm for me. I have to run the heat down 4-5 degrees more than I used to.. but then I don't want to get out of bed in the am. Good luck w it...should be fine. Morrison

I also have a memory foam on top and I do not have an issue with it feeling too hot and I over heat pretty easy. I do have sheets that don't keep heat and I run a fan on me at all times when I'm sleeping.

The cover makes what was unbearable, bearable. If you had used a comforter on your old mattress, it will make the Tempurpedic too warm even with the cover. You need to use a thinner blanket along with the cover.

I don't find it hot at all. I sleep on a temperpedic mattress and find it sometimes too hot as the foam holds the heat. With the down feather bed on top of the temperpedic mattress, I am much more comfortable. Perhaps the down allows for air circulation the foam doesn't.

Yes, memory foam mattresses can get very hot and warm. But I suspect you didn't have a 15 inch mattress as well. This mattress has a design to have better airflow. I leave my AC off when I sleep, and I generally wake up with it is already 80 outside. With the air off, the bed is not warm at all, my temporpedic pillow actually gets hot, but not this bed. This company released a gel bed I think around the time I bought this bed. That one would be cool too.

I wish my memory was as good as yours. I felt for continuing use that the medium setting was fine. I thought the High setting was OK when you first put it on, but that it did get quite warm. Of course this is subjective, my hot might be your medium, but for the price I think it is an all around good pad.

NO! not at all, that's one of the key characteristics I love about it. I've always had heat issues with mattress pads, foam, etc. I will definitely buy this again when my current one needs replacing.

I don't feel like it does. My mattress is memory foam, and the pad works perfectly well with it.

Our mattress pad seems to stay cool, it does not add heat like some mattresses add heat. Even my husband was impressed with the cooler temperature difference and he definitely doubted it would produce results for a better sleeping experience.

We recommend you do not use either electric blankets or heating pads with our memory foam toppers. The memory foam material responds to your body temperature, and the additional heat from electric blankets or heating pads causes the mattress to respond to that heat instead of conforming to your body. Longer periods of exposure to the heat from electric blankets or heating pads may damage the memory foam material.

I'm not the best person to ask about this, as I am always cold and sleep w/a heated mattress pad on my side of the bed, but my husband, who is always warmer than I, has never complained about being sweaty on his side of the bed. My daughter, who has a different company's memory foam mattress, doesn't mention anything like that either. Hope this is helpful! Much success to you!
