I sleep very hot. Will this topper actually help cool me down, or is it simply cooler than a traditional memory foam mattress?

I find it cooler than my regular mattress before I had this topper but I am not sure---

I haven't noticed a cooling system necessarily. I think the ventilation is to keep it from getting stinky maybe? So it can breathe. Where i lay stays warm, when i move to a different spot its cool... sorry if this is of no help.

i haven't noticed any cooling affect. my wife loves it, but because of it's comfort, she's also never mentioned feeling cooled by it

It says 'cooling' because it is not as hot as the older memory foam toppers were. Lots of people complained about the heat retention because it is a closed cell foam. The manufacturers started adding holes in the material, then designing cooling systems to remove some of the heat. So this isn't designed to cool you, it's designed to release some of the heat (ie, cool) retained in the closed cell structure of the foam.

It's on the softer side, you definitely sink into it. It adds a very small amount of support. I bought it to "soften" a very firm mattress and it does exactly that. It is also not "cool" as advertised, it is cooler than memory foam but still holds a lot of heat. Hope this helps!

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.

I found that it does stay cool compared to the previous memory foam toppers that I have owned.

I think it does sleep a bit warm. But I live in a place where it's chilly at night year-round, so this is a plus for me. I'm not sure it would be such a good choice in a hot climate. And I found this topper a terrific, cushy addition for a mattress that is old, but very firm.

Hello there! I was expecting this mattress topper to make me quite a bit hotter but I really haven't noticed a difference. If anything, it will only make a slight difference on the warmer side. The mattress topper comes with some small pencil sized holes so I think that helps keep it cooler.

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.

It does not make it hotter. I tend to get hot and this definitely sleeps cooler than the regular mattress. I purchased this due to back arthritis and it is the best!!,

It DOES stay cooler than my last memory foam mattress. However it is nowhere near as firm. Tradeoff, I guess.

I think cooler than just the mattress or a regular pad, but I can't say as it actually "cools" you.

In my view, the mattress topper provides a cooler layer of separation between your body and the memory foam. That's really the reason behind the topper. I would keep it simple, but not too cheap. I can't recall which one I bought because I had it for a few years before I came across this mattress. You want it to be of decent quality so that it fits securely over the mattress. The memory foam delivers the comfort, the mattress pad keeps you cooler.

I've never slept on any other memory foam so I have nothing to compare it to. But it does seem cooler than my bed was before the topper. Hope that helps!

I do not think so. I tried it on a regular spring coil mattress and it behaved like a gel eye mask. It stayed cool for approximately an hour and it was very pleasant during that time, but eventually it started accumulating heat and radiating it back. By the way, my condolences on owning a memory foam bed - those things are impossible to sleep on because of overheating. Nothing beats regular mattress. I only tried this cooling pad because my bedroom gets hot during summer, but it turned out my bed actually felt cooler without cooling pads on it.

I agree with you about the memory foam mattress. After trying several mattress cover's, BINGO! This one works. It is very thin, and you will be amazed how well it keeps you cool. It also is guaranteed for 10 years! WOW!!!!!!I am so Happy I tried this product. It is Fantastic. I also purchased the pillow protectors, and they work very well. Please give them a try. If by any chance they are not for you you can return them. I bet you won't. Joannie :) Let me know what you think after trying this wonderful product. :)

I definitely do not feel the mattress topper creates heat or makes me hot - but I can't say it keeps me cool exactly either; it doesn't seem to alter the temperature of the bed either way.

Not at all. I used to get hot on my other mattress but I think this one has a cooling layer because I have not, and I got it last summer so I it is not because of weather.

It does make it warmer but not hot like the memory foam. I enjoy cool sleeping temps and I have no problem with this item.
