My memory foam bed is too hot! Will the extra plush topper (not the bamboo one) keep the heat away from me on top of my memory foam mattress?

In our case, YES, this did help! We recently purchased a Beautyrest Recharge Ultra King mattress. Not only was it too firm, but it was HOT. This topper is awesome. I love it! Would love to hear your opinion if you decide to purchase.

We have the memory foam mattress and with this topper I have not noticed the heat as before. This sore hip and shoulder is no more and it is so comfortable, I do not want to get up. As far as the heat goes, I do have a physical problem with heat, it comes and goes, so don't count on me.

I don't know; I had no trouble with my bed being too hot (it is not a foam), and I did not notice any temperature change with the mattress topper.

This topper is really thick and high fluffy so you are at least a couple inches removed from the mattress. So yes I think it should keep you a bit cooler and for sure comfy. Thanks for the heads up about those memory foam mattresses. It is exactly why we never bought one.

I love this mattress pad, but I purchased because my new gel memory foam mattress was hot. My husband doesn't seems to have an issue, I'm still warm!

We have a 4 inch gel memory foam topper on our bed with the protector and it is fine. Do not notice any heat issues at all.

I too have a memory foam mattress. It's very lightweight and so far I haven't had difficulties with it making the bed too hot.

My mattress that I bought this for is a memory foam, and it does not make me hot. So I would recommend it.

I have not had any issues with overheating using this topper. I put a foam topper on my futon under the topper and that has worked out quite well.

I added a pillow top (Hollander Ultimate 400 Tc Cuddlebed) for extra comfort. Completely changed my bed and the comfort. Highly recommend. If you are concerned about protection and are only using the memory foam topper I would definitely get a mattress cover.

Not due to heater, but I have to say that the material made me hot. I put it on the bed this year without plugging it in because the plushness of the pad feels so nice, but I woke up with whatever side was making contact with the bed all sweaty. This happened every night for a week before I took it off and then I didn't sweat anymore. It is really plush and nice, but I guess it doesn't breathe very well. Everyone is different though, and this is just my experience. It might be fine for you.

I don't find the topper to be too hot at night. It has lost its plushness though.

I have it on top of what is called plush on my new mattress. I can't say I notice anything that effects the plush part of the mattress. I sleep on a memory foam when I visit my daughter and I think it would help to have this on top. But I don't know for sure.

Before purchasing, I was quite hot on my memory foam mattress, and then got this cover and it has definitely been cooler!!!

In my opinion, no. It comes with a unique cover (?made of bamboo fibers I think) that insulates any heat that might build up. I am a very HOT SLEEPER, and was on "high alert" for any increase in warmth caused by this pad, and have not noticed any uncomfortable increase in heat since I put the pad on my bed.

I don't know that it's any cooler, but neither is it hotter. If you have your room temperature set to a cool, comfortable temperature (I like to keep mine about 66 at night, year-round), you should do just fine. I know that many of the foam mattresses/toppers tend to retain heat. I don't believe this one does - at least not to any noticeable extent. On the flipside though, it doesn't seem to dissipate heat any better than you'd find sleeping on a standard mattress. BOTTOM LINE: Temperature-wise, I'd say it's neutral. The benefit comes in the better sleeping surface that contours to your body - a good benefit for the fraction of the cost of a full foam mattress.

I think all memory foam holds your body heat to some extent. I sewed some pillow cases for mine so with the extra layer between me and the pillow I haven't noticed it being hot. Although it has been fairly cold here yet, so I guess we'll find out soon enough!

I am actually disappointed in the softness of this topper because it forms to you body and smushes down after a few nights and winds up hard. You have to shake it out and knead it to get it fluffy again. It does solve our specific problem of our tempurpedic mattress being too hot, but I would suggest you try a natural foam topper for some softness.

Hi, The topper does get warm, but not as warm as the regular memory foam. It helps with pressure points from a mattress that is too firm, but I don't know about the morning aches and pains.

I to was concerned about being to hot on a foam mattress. I am post menopausal and hot on any bed, however the foam is not any different then my regular bed for heat. I purchased a nice think mattress pad maybe that's helping.
