From my experience it will give you warmth, so I don't see it cooling down a foam mattress

I have mine on top of memory foam and it's much cooler and very comfortable

I bought a new mattress, it's really comfortable but its on the hot side I bought this mattress topper and it helped cool down the mattress I would highly recommend purchasing one

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.

I have a memory foam bed & my Chillgel stays cool about 6 hours. I always wake up early morning & it's warm, but the time it stays cool is really marvelous!

The blue side is supposed to be down. That's how I used it. It's not actually going to cool you off or keep you cool; it seems to just prevent you from laying in a spot that warms excessively from your own body heat to prevent, or at least curb, the possibility of sweating. It seemed to work that way for me at least. I did not put another mattress cover over it however. That might make a difference if you did that. I just put the sheet over it that I laid on. I would contact the manufacturer for more specifics on this if you have more questions.

Yes, memory foam mattresses can get very hot and warm. But I suspect you didn't have a 15 inch mattress as well. This mattress has a design to have better airflow. I leave my AC off when I sleep, and I generally wake up with it is already 80 outside. With the air off, the bed is not warm at all, my temporpedic pillow actually gets hot, but not this bed. This company released a gel bed I think around the time I bought this bed. That one would be cool too.

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

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

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!

Our mattress pad seems to stay cool, it does not add heat like some mattresses add heat. Even my husband was impressed with the cooler temperature difference and he definitely doubted it would produce results for a better sleeping experience.

If I set it up in the middle of my double bed, it cools the whole thing. If your bed is larger and you set it up more to one side or the other, it would probably only cool one side/person.

Yes the chillgel pad does lose its coolness on memory foam beds. I get hot flashes & find that it doesn't stay cool much longer after one whether it's on the bed or not.

it is very comfortable ,but I have to say that I do not feel it lives up to its cooling potential.Were I to do this again, I would look for a gel mattress pad or bed. Same thing with the cooling pillow I bought from a high-end vendor.It's cool at first,but really adjusts to my body temp as quickly as my other pillows do.

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 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 have found this cover to be cooler than others that I have tried. There seems to be a bit more air circulation. Not a dramatic difference but enough for me. I would definitely put a waterproof cover between this and the mattress. Sweat filters down through the cover and has caused my foam mattress topper to get moldy. This is not unique to this cover. I have found that all covers have the same problem. You will need to provide a way for the area to air out and get dry in order to combat this. An absorbent layer (towel) on top of your mattress that is changed frequently may help.

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
