sleep cool, you've come to the right video. Today, I'm going to be talking about mattresses
that are going to sleep cool throughout the night.
I'll be telling you everything you need to look out for. If you want to sleep cool at
night and buy a mattress, then run through some of my top picks. They're going to help
you sleep cool at night. Basically, by the end of the video, you're going to have a pretty
good idea of which one of these you might want to get, so stay tuned.

that information is available if you just head on over to mattressclarity.com.
Some tips for sleeping cool outside of mattresses, there's something called phase change material.
You can get that in a mattress protector. It's another way of how you could possibly
sleep cool. That same material can be in sheets as well, so take a look at that.
There's also something called a bed jet and other similar devices that can actually blow
air into your mattress at whatever temperature you set. A couple of other devices that can
help you sleep cool outside of a mattress.
The other thing to note with mattresses, different types of materials can sleep hotter. Memory
foam, for example, is known to trap heat. If you are concerned about sleeping hot, avoid
memory foam or just make sure that you've definitely addressed the issue there.
Having said all this, let's jump into some top picks. First up on the list is the Helix
mattress. Helix is all about customization. With Helix, you have two options. You can
pick from one of their selected models.
They have a bunch of models available, or you can take a quiz, answer a bunch of questions,
and then you get a customized mattress based on the answers to your quiz. If you say you
sleep hot, for example, you can put that in your quiz. They'll give you a mattress that's
not going to sleep hot.
They also have a Luxe option. No matter what mattress you get, you get a Luxe option with
an ultra cool cover as well, another reason why you're going to sleep cool at night. With
Helix, there's a lot of options as well, a lot of customization. It's a great experience
overall.
Next up on our list is the Nolah mattress. Nolah is made with a proprietary foam on top
called AirFoam. It's like memory foam, but it's more responsive and it's not going to
trap heat. Based on the chemical nature, it's going to be a temperature-neutral situation.
If you want a very comfortable mattress that's like memory foam, has very good pressure relief,
a little bit softer than average, very good for side sleepers and back sleepers, but you
don't want something that traps heat, has very good pressure relief at the same time,
I'd take a look at the Nolah mattress.
Next up on our list is the Purple mattress. Purple has a gel material called Hyper-Elastic
Polymer. The top of the mattress, two inches of that, it's in a grid format. If you look
at it, there's just so much room for air to flow through that it just produces a temperature-neutral
situation.
The gel itself will not trap heat either. If you're worried about sleeping hot, this
is not going to sleep cool necessarily. It's just going to sleep completely temperature
neutral. That's very good as well. It's also a very good fit for all three sleeping positions
just based on the way that the gel works.
If you're on your side, this gel is going to collapse underneath your shoulders and
hips and give you good pressure relief. If you're on your back, it's going to collapse
underneath your butt and stay flat and supportive across the rest of your body, very supportive
as well.
If you're on your stomach, it's going to stay flat and supportive. It's a very good fit
for all three sleeping positions. It's also going to sleep temperature neutral.
Next up on our list is Amerisleep. Amerisleep has a line of five memory foam mattresses.
I would say if you're looking for a memory foam mattress and want to sleep cool, this
may be the best out of all of them. They have about four different ways of how you're going
to sleep cool on all the different mattresses.
They have a Celliant cover which can potentially provide a cooler night of sleep as well. They
have open-cell memory foam and then partially bio-based memory foam. They also have little
air channels in their mattress for air to flow through. Four different ways of how you're
going to sleep cool.
They've set five different mattresses, all with different firmnesses, caters towards
different types of sleepers. If you're a side sleeper, they're going to have the AS4 and
the AS5 for you. If you're a combination sleeper, maybe the AS3. If you're back-stomach sleeper,
maybe the AS1 or the AS2.
They have a mattress that's going to be built for any type of sleeper. It's definitely going
to sleep cool. If you want to have a nice memory foam mattress and want to sleep cool,
I'd take a look at Amerisleep.
Next one on our list is the Saatva mattress. Saatva is a traditional innerspring mattress
with a Euro-style pillow top. It has two sets of steel coils. If you look at those coils,
there's lots of room for air to flow through, so tons and tons of airflow here.
It's more of a sleeping on top of the mattress feel rather than sleeping in the mattress.
Your body is going to be exposed to more air on top. A couple of different ways of how
it's going to be a very breathable experience overall. It's also a very good fit for all
three sleeping positions.
It's very supportive when on your back and stomach, and pretty good pressure relief because
of that Euro-style pillow top when you're on your side. It's a very good fit for a combination
sleeper as people who sleep in any position. If you're used to traditional innerspring
mattresses, I'd definitely take a look at Saatva.
Next on our list is the Zenhaven mattress. I want to include an all-natural latex mattress.
That's exactly what Zenhaven is. It's an all-natural latex mattress, four different layers of all-natural
towel laid latex, which is a very breathable open-cell foam. You're not going to sleep
hot with this mattress whatsoever.
It's very supportive. It's innovative. It's a flippable mattress, so it has a softer side
and a firmer side. Any position that you sleep in, you're going to find pretty much the right
side and right firmness for you.
There's a lot to like about this mattress. It's free of those harmful chemicals that
people may be worried about because it's all-natural, more of an organic offering, eco-friendly,
and very supportive and comfortable at the same time.
Last on our list is the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora mattress, which sleeps cool for a number of
reasons. The cover has something called a phase change material in it. If you touch
the cover, it's cool, even cold to the touch. Just based on that alone, you know it's going
to sleep cool.
The top layer is also infused with copper, which is a conductor to draw heat away, and
then something called TitanCool, which is another phase change material. Lots of different
reasons of how you're going to sleep cool.
It's a very substantial mattress with very good comfort and support, did very well on
our pressure map testing, for example. Could be good for even the light, medium, and heavyweight
sleepers as well. There's a lot to like about this mattress.
Marten: Hey guys, Marten here to offer a different perspective. Joe's 5'9, 160. I'm 6'7, 250.
I'm a larger person than Joe. He made this list of the best cooling mattresses. Out of
these mattresses, six are a particularly good option for heavier people like myself. Let's
go through those one by one.
First off, we have the Helix mattresses. What's great about Helix, as Joe mentioned, is they're
customizable. They're made to fit whatever your sleeping positions are, also whatever
size you are. They even have the Helix Plus made specifically for larger people. It's
also a cooler sleeping mattress.
Then we have the Purple mattress. Purple is great because it has so much room for airflow
with that gel grid on top. A lot of room for airflow, so it's completely temperature neutral.
I personally don't sleep hot at all on this mattress. Also, it's good for all three seat
positions even for someone of my size.
Then we have the Aurora and the Amerisleep. I like the Aurora and the Amerisleep because
they're great for side sleeping. As the larger person, I usually bottom out on mattresses,
but these both have very thick comfort layers. I lie on my side, I sink in. I feel great
pressure relief on my shoulders and my hips. At the same time, I'm sleeping quite cool.
Then we have the Zenhaven. The Zenhaven is great because it's very supportive even for
someone of my size, really good for back sleeping and for stomach sleeping. In addition, it's
a flippable mattress, so multiple firmnesses in one mattress. It has a natural cooling
of latex, good for hot sleepers.
Last up, we have the Saatva mattress. I like Saatva because it has two sets of steel coils,
very supportive for someone of my size. These coils promote airflow throughout the mattress.
I'm not sleeping hot on the Saatva.

Joe: Before I close out this video, let me go over some frequently asked questions as
it relates to mattresses and sleeping cool. Why are you getting so hot at night? It could
be a medical condition, definitely possible, but it's probably your sleep environment.
Probably it's your mattress, or your sheets, or whatever you put in as your bedding as
well.
Does cooling gel make mattresses sleep cooler? If you have something like gel memory foam,
is that alone going to help you sleep cool? It may. The impact is going to be a little
bit less than companies may want to claim on their website.
If you have a gel memory foam mattress and nothing else that's going to sleep cool, I'd
be a little bit skeptical of how cool it's going to sleep.
How can you keep your bed cool at night? There's something called a BedJet, which is a nice
device that actually blows air at whatever temperature you want into your mattress. That's
an option.
You get sheets, a mattress protector that can help you sleep cool. Then there's the
mattresses that we've listed in this video as well.
All right, that's basically it. Hopefully, I've given you a good overview of what you
need to look out for if you're looking to buy a mattress and you want to sleep cool
at night. Hopefully, you have a pretty good idea of which one of these mattresses you
might want to get.
