Does the filling in the pillow cause heat? I bought an expensive organic toddler pillow for my toddler - and it makes his head sweat like crazy!

I didn't really think this pillow was anything special. It was just a standard stuffed pillow. I bought it because of the descriptions and reviews thinking it was better form my toddler. Seems to be just a basic travel pillow ....however, it does not make his head sweat. Very light pillow.

My son always sweats when he sleeps- pillow or not, so I don't think this pilllow is to blame. I do, however find it to be a bit too thick/poofy for his size. He's 2 1/2 and it lifts his head a little too far forward. He uses it part of the night but then abandons it. I figured he'll grow into it. So if your check child is older he/she should be ok

Cathryn, I like the pillow and am warm natured. I did not notice a huge cooling effect, but I also believe it is better than the tempurpedic. My short answer is "yes." My long answer is that when compared to other pillows I would say it had a cooling factor but that it was not anything revolutionary. That said, I'd buy it again.

I haven't tried the other inserts but we used the Performance insert on our vacation in Hawaii. My daughter is a hot, sweaty baby! She was a little sweaty when we took her out of it after an afternoon at Dole Plantation but she didn't seem to mind...she slept most of the time we were there. I didn't feel uncomfortable (heat wise) carrying her in it either.

I used it for my daughter since she was 1week old. The pillow has many holes for heat release and i felt this is crucial especially in case the baby faces down when she learnt to turn her head-at least can breathe better. My daughter is 9mth old and her head is round so I guess it works with preventing flat head syndrome. She's still using it now!

The memory foam hasn't felt hot to us (we have one on our regular mattress at home). Also, my in-laws had one in their RV, and we were stunned at how comfortable that RV bed was.... this was before we knew that memory foam came in mattress-toppers also. We never felt stifled or hot in either case.

No. It doesn't feel hot. It is so comfortable I haven't even flipped it to find the "cool" side. I've never had a better pillow.

I am loving the pillow, even though I thought I made a mistake at first. The pillow is soft. You have to "fluff it up to move the shredded foam around. No, the pillow is not hot. I snuggle my head down and the pillow cradles my neck. Originally, I bought two queen pillows. After I slept on them for a week, I ended up loving them so much that I bought two king pillows for another bed. Hope this helps

It hasn't gotten hot for me. I use it for my neck/ upper body mostly (because I have another pillow for my lower body), but it can be used for both, no problem. I love this pillow! I have had multiple back surgeries and this pillow helps a lot with my comfort/ pain.

Hard to say if that is a result of the cover, or my hormonal change. Also, we have a Temperpedic matress that heats and molds with your body temperture. My husband hasn't said anything about unusual heat.

I think it is better for kids. My 14 year old uses this one (has since he was 12). He gets serious neck pain (cramps) from large fluffy pillows that elevate his head too much. He is slim. The pillow has helped him 100% with his neck pain. My husband who is also slim uses a different pillow that has a wider neck support.It is not at all hot.

I love this pillow. It does not make my head hot. Although my last pillow was memory foam and it didn't make my head hot either. You might just work differently than me.

It probably depends on the type of pillow case you use. I don't find it it's especially hot to sleep on. Having bought pillows at Walmart I think this one is far better. I like the choice between the fiber filled and the foam. I am very happy with my purchase.

Not any more than any other pillow. It's a fantastic pillow but if you're always hot and sweating, this pillow isn't going to fix it.

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.

It gets too warm for me too. I preferred the original NeckBone I bought 14 years ago. I still have it and it is just now getting soft. I would throw it in the washer and dryer no problem.The new one is too big, says could take some of the stuffing out which I have not tried yet. I just use the newer version on the headrest of my car. Wish could have the older version for my bed.

We have a thick memory foam topper and I do not notice it being hot with this mattress topper on it. It should help with your problem...if not you can return it. Worth trying it out.We do love this topper.

We have two of these pillows in use at this time. We have not encountered the difficulty that you describe. Unless you plan to change the water every night, the very cold water is not a very convenient solution. My daughter did notice the pillow did heat up when exposed to the heating vent, but she actually enjoyed that experience. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck.
