I have heard that some mattress toppers hold in a lot of heat, so Iam wondering if this product gets too hot in the summertime? I tend to sweat alot in the night, and am looking for bed products that breathe and would not make me sweat so bad.~Thanks!

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

I live in the desert south of Las Vegas and I haven't experienced that problem. My wife has a high metabolism and often has to kick off the covers but she hasn't had a problem either. We love this mattress pad, and would buy another.

Hello,I have to be honest and say I am not sure the mattress topper will cool down a memory foam mattress but I can tell you that the mattress topper is very thick and perhaps in conjunction with a mattress pad, it may be suitable for your needs. A bamboo mattress pad or the bamboo version of the mattress topper may work for you as I understand them to be cooler than other fabrics. I have three layers over mine - an thick Egyptian cotton mattress pad, a bamboo mattress pad, and then the mattress topper. I hope this was helpful and I hope you find the right solution for your situation. :) Hello,I have to be honest and say I am not sure the mattress topper will cool down a memory foam mattress but I can tell you that the mattress topper is very thick and perhaps in conjunction with a mattress pad, it may be suitable for your needs.

I don't find the topper to be too hot at night. It has lost its plushness though.

I love the feel but I have it under my mattress pad and sheet. Does not feel hot. I am not using it because I have a child (so I can not say anything about being waterproof!), just using it because I wanted good protection for my new mattress.

I guess it all depends on your mattress. Our mattress has a cotton blend material on top so Yes...I'm sure this helps the protector to be more breathable & much cooler for us (no more mattress hot spots)However, Not sure how it works with memory foam mattresses, I know that they can get quite hot during sleep which is why we steered away from those (been there done that). We are Very Happy with this product & believe its worth a try! Getting our Zzzzzzzz's

I do not have a memory foam mattress, but I do not find this to be hot at all. And that's saying something since with my hot flashes and night sweats, I'm tossing off the sheet and blanket most of the night. I believe bc this is cotton, it breathes and wicks away moisture. My body pillow does retain heat, but I haven't noticed it with this mattress pad. Best pad I've EVER had.

Julian, I purchased this comforter a month ago and if you are looking for something breathable this is the one to get! Not too heavy or hot at all. Very well made. You will be happy with it! Might I also suggest you look at getting bamboo sheets. After much research, we also purchased this at the same time and I could not be happier with the quality and results. The sheets feel like satin and keep us cool all night. Apparently they have a wicking property that lets heat escape. Still haven't found a pillow that actually works yet in keeping my head from getting too hot. (I've tried them all!)

I used to wake up in a sweat frequently on my plain sheets/mattress.. i feel comfy warm on this topper.. i don't know if it's cause it breathes a little bit or it absorbs.. i still turn frequently as always but less than before, it won't fix a bad mattress, certainly increases comfort though. I am happy with my purchase still after over a month.. i did have to give it some time as the change in bedding configuration revealed some aches I didn't know I had.

I get really hot when I sleep too and I sweat under this comfort but not as bad as I did when we had a heavier one. Hope this helps.

I had a super puffy goose down mattress cover on mine and I did not overheat. (But I did return it because it was so hard.)

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.

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.

I haven't noticed an odor, but it has a pretty heavy zip cover and I put it in a pillowcase as well so maybe that helps if there is an odor. As for it getting hot, I sleep so well and so sound due to this gel memory foam pillow and the gel memory foam mattress topper I am unaware if it gets hot. If it does get hot it certainly is not noticeable enough to disrupt my sleep.

I would say that it depends on where you live. We are in Arizona and it has been fine for this winter. I don't find it to be to hot at all. However, I have not had the mattress through a summer here in Arizona. If you live somewhere that the temperature cools down at night I would say you won't have a problem. If it's still 105 degrees at 10:00 p.m. it might be warm. Sorry, can't give a better answer than this. Check back in July! :-)

I have not found this mattress to be hot. That was always a worry I had too. I already had a topper with the "cooling" technology and I have put that on top of this mattress. I am also in the age group where I tend to pull the sheet off and back on a few times in the night even with my topper. I got something called a Chillow a few years ago and if I feel a warm trend starting I put my arm or leg on it and it truly does cool you down.

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.

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.
