Air mattresses can be cold to sleep on (air chills from floor contact). Is that true for this mattress?

Yes, we found using a mattress pad and a flannel fitted sheet the chill doesn't come thru.

I have a carpet on the floor. Added to this I have a cotton cover over the mattress, that is then covered by a bedsheet. With all this the mattress is not cold.

Any air or water mattress will pull heat from your body. Always use a mattress pad, foam topper, or even a comforter to get some air space between you and the mattress. It also limits sweating due to close contact with the non breathable mattress material.

Hasn't been a problem for us. Sleeping surface is elevated and with bed linen, cold has not come thru.

This mattress is elevated high enough, that I don't see that as an issue due the floor contact.

David - the mattress does not have cool gel in it as far as I know. However, my wife and I sleep cool on it.

No, this mattress is not hot to sleep on. It maintains regular temperatures throughout the night like most spring mattresses.

We have 2 of these mattresses. And no they do not have cooling effect. But we do have one that does. Search amazon for cool memory foam mattress. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00828AQ9M/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?qid=1396974197&sr;=8-9π=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70

i feel very comfortable -- it is hard for me to say whether it is cold or warm as people feel differently. It is breathable - I would say it will keep you cool. I have used for more than 4 weeks now. It has improved my sleep quality. Good luck!

Ive had no problems with it being too warm but I sleep with my a/c set pretty low. I have in the past had mattress pads that I thought were hot, I havent noticed that with this one

Don't know. I use mine on a SleepNumberBed! But I don't believe it would do any harm on an air bed. It does not get hot enough. If you have a good quality air mattress (not the kind you would take camping for example) I feelm it would be fine especially since it has three temp levels.

Myself, I froze on this sleeping Pad. I also bought an insulated one (around $166), but I still froze. I Returned Insulated one, because I still Froze with it. Now I just use a foam pad because with the air sleeping pads - I freeze (could be just me).

From what I see, the frame has pretty good paint coating on it. However, the thin wire and butterfly screws seem risky, especially while put weight on the mattress. I would not recommend air mattress having direct contact with the frame.

I didn't notice it being any warmer than our regular mattress. Since I am hot nearly 95% of the time anyway, I would have noticed it. :) It wasn't cool though. However it was supremely comfortable. I say was, because we got a new extra firm mattress and haven't put that back on yet.

Its a valid concern! But, I live in south Mississippi and I never get hot because of the mattress. However, I do sleep in a very cool room year round because I cant sleep hot!

I did not experience any air leaks with this mattress. I used it for 4 months it was very comfortable but then the bellows inside the mattress started to pop leaving a large bump in the center of the bed which I couldn't sleep on. My brother bought the queen size version and had the same experience.

First your question. I don't have an insulated one but I can tell you if you intend to sleep on the snow the non-insulated one will let the cold circulate right up to your body. I'm a warm person so I would never need an insulated one for very cold nights as long as there isn't snow on the ground. One other note, these have a tendency to develop very slow leaks which can be impossible to locate. I have to blow some more air into my during the night.

Not sure, matter of fact I have to contact manufacturer to find out myself, air mattress have a slow leak.

I honestly don't know how to answer that question. My mattress is on a houseboat and I typically sleep out on the water. So I don't mind the mattress keep me a little warmer since it's so cold outside. I'm usually very comfortable with my mattress its still sleeps very well and I always look forward to heading down to the boat and getting a good night's rest on it. I hope this helps!

I think the flooring under the mattress might be a factor. If it's carpeted with great padding, I'd say go for it. BUT, if it's a wood or tile floor, the cold may permeate the mattress. Our mattress came in a big duffle bag but we can't get the mattress to go back into it. When we are not using it, it goes into two bags, one from each end!

It doesn't ruin the firm feeling of a mattress. It has enough thickness to not feel the wires, though. One thing I recently noticed (not sure if it's a recent defect, but I think it is) is that it doesn't heat to the end (or top) of the mattress by about a foot on either end. Leaves my feet freezing cold!
