They do make one with gel. In fact, that's what I thought I was ordering but got this one. I don't know what keeps the heat away. I can't stand to be hot while sleeping or wake up in a sweat, and so far I haven't with this one - 4 days, mind you. I did order the gel one but haven't put it on yet. I'll do that in a few days. This one is very comfortable, no motion, not flimsy like some other reviewer keeps saying. Maybe he got something else, sounds like he bought from another vendor so no telling what he ended up with.

Gel foam is more firm (less sinky) and supposedly cooler sleeping. I dont think you want this mattress less sinky, because it already does not sink link a tempurpedic. I never noticed any heat build up in the foam, but i have a mattress pad on it. So that is about it, except the obvious answer, which is....$100.00

True. 100% natural latex does not retain body heat like traditional memory foam. Also, Plushbeds 100% natural talalay latex toppers are healthy by design. Air is infused into the latex compound to create latex foam's open cell structure that provides a cooler sleep surface.

I don't have a temperpedic (but my mattress does have a layer of memory foam) but I don't believe this pad is a "thermal" as you described. This pad was designed to breath...not sure how they do that considering it is supposed to be water proof. I'm laying on it now reading and I can feel it warm up, so there is some transfer of body heat. However, it doesn't make me hot and uncomfortable and I run hot sleeping. The sides are a mesh fabric...probably where it gets its air from. It is relatively inexpensive so I would probably give it a try and return it if you are unhappy with the purchase. If you are using Prime the return is free if you drive it to the delivery service it was delivered to you from...UPS or USPS. I've done it several times and never had a problem. I haven't washed it yet so I don't know how it will hold up but it seems nicely made. Good luck to you.

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

It has minimal padding. Helps a little. If you're looking for a padded mattress cover to help with a hard bed this isn't the one. I bought it as it says, filled with gelled microfiber and has air pockets. Thought it might help make my foam bed cooler. Doesn't seem to help with the heat much but did add a little padding.

Its down alternative. No gel like memory foam. Could be the new process which they coat the filling with gel to keep its shape,but no way to know for sure without ripping open. All I can say is very comfortable,like buying a pillowtop mattress

Sorry, no, it does not. I purchased this for my daughter, and she can wrap it completely around her middle!The moist heat pad is flexible, comfortable, and VERY easy to control the heat level.The cover is very soft and machine washable.I've had mine for many years and it still works perfectly!

I would not buy the Sleep Innovations Mattress again. Sleeps too Hot. Maybe it's just me and my wife. Our next one will be a Serta Gel.

This was my big worry. We don't have a memory foam mattress, but it does not make our pillow top king size mattress hot.

I haven't tried the gel, but I like to be warm at night so that doesn't bother me. This topper is extremely comfortable, that's the main thing.

Yes, we use the Sunbeam Twin XL Heated Mattress Pads with our adjustable XL Twin Serta Memory Foam Mattresses. We each have one on each mattress for our own comfort and these are on separate adjustable bed frames housed inside our king-size bed frame, so that it looks like one king bed. These pads have enough material to fit extra thick mattress so they do not slide around or come off easily. Also, since we have a separate heated pad for each mattress, we each sleep comfortably at a temperature we each like without heavy bed covers. We highly recommend this type of heated mattress pads.

I'm not sure what you mean by gel component; the entire mattress is memory foam.

Ours contains gel beads which is designed to dissipate the heat. The mattress has been great!

I was wondering the same thing. I purchased one over a year ago and just recently learned about all the fire retardants in infant clothing and bedding. I contacted Serta and here was their response: Thank you for contacting Serta. We are glad that you took the time to email us and appreciate the opportunity to respond. Serta manufactures mattresses and foundations. We license independently owned companies to make many types of furniture and bedding accessories using the Serta brand name.

I'll email the company mentioned and post what I find out.

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.

We actually bought the gel to stay cool but it doesnt work. Bed still gets hot at night. The only thing the gel pad provided was more padding and we already have a memory foam mattress so that was of no help to us.
