The Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid and the Bear Elite Hybrid are two top-performing cooling hybrid mattresses offering strong temperature regulation and exceptional comfort. However, a queen size the CopperFlex is up to $774 cheaper than the Bear Elite, depending on current discounts.
After testing both of these mattresses, our reviewers have awarded them spots in our best cooling mattress of the year guide. Impressively, the Bear Elite takes the top spot as our #1 cooling mattress of the year overall, while the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid comes in at #4 as the best cooling bed under $1,000. You'll also find the Bear Elite sitting pretty as the top cooling option in our guide to the best mattress for all sleepers and budgets.
Both mattresses are persistently discounted in monthly mattress sales by at least 25%. However, the CopperFlex is significantly cheaper than the Bear Elite. So, how do the two compare in terms of design, comfort and performance, and is the Bear Elite Hybrid worth the price hike? That's what we'll dig into here.
There's currently 35% off in Bear mattress sales, cutting an Elite Hybrid to $1,578 (was $2,427) in a queen size. While that is an excellent saving, it is a deal we tend to see from month to month. During major mattress sales, such as Black Friday and Memorial Day, that discount can rise to 40% off. It's also worth noting that you'll need to splash an extra $195 for the Celliant cover. Similarly, thanks to regular Brooklyn Bedding mattress sales, you'll rarely have to pay full price for the CopperFlex Pro mattress. Discounts tend to range between 20% and 30% off. Right now the discount sits in the middle at 25%, reducing a queen size to $999 from $1,332.
Brooklyn Bedding and Bear are on a par when it comes to benefits. They both include free shipping, a 120-night sleep trial and limited lifetime warranty with all mattress purchases, which really add value to the price you pay.
Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress: from $932 $699 at Brooklyn BeddingThe Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid uses breathable coils and copper-infused foam for advanced cooling and motion isolation. It's up to $399.75 off this month, with a queen reduced to $999 (was $1,332). You'll also get free shipping, a 120-night sleep trial and lifetime warranty.
Bear Elite Hybrid mattress: from $1,998 $1,299 at BearYou're guaranteed cool sleep on the Bear Elite Hybrid mattress, which is discounted by 35% now. This cuts a queen to $1,578 (was $2,427) as standard or $1,773 (was $2,727) with the Celliant cover upgrade. Not the lowest price we've seen, but great value nonetheless.
Both 14" tall with a navy base and white top, these hybrid mattresses share a similar aesthetic. Under the covers, however, these mattresses differ slightly.
From bottom to top, the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is built with 7" high-density support foam, zoned coils (up to 760 of them, depending on the size you pick), motion-isolating transition foam, comfort foam, copper foam, quilt foam (yes, that's a lot of different kinds of memory foam) and is topped with a GlacioTex cooling cover.
On the other hand, the Bear Elite Hybrid mattress is an innerspring hybrid mattress with Phase Change Materials, copper foam, dynamic transition foam, high-density support foam and individually encased, zoned coils. Each zone targets a specific pressure point and coils have a higher gauge in the center to provide additional lumbar support. If you're a particularly hot sleeper, we recommend upgrading your Bear mattress with the Celliant cover (our tester, who tested the mattress during a sweltering Texan summer, was glad she did.)
As two of the best hybrid mattresses you can buy, the CopperFlex and Bear Elite Hybrid both use a combination of responsive coils and cushioning foams to provide a balance of lumbar support and pressure relief, no matter your sleep style.
The CopperFlex Pro Hybrid comes in one firmness option — a medium-firm 7 out of 10 on the mattress firmness scale. It is a pillow top mattress, though, meaning you sink into slightly when you lie on it as the foam molds to your body. Our average-weight tester, Eve, found it comfortable in all sleeping positions and didn't have trouble switching between side, stomach and back sleeping during the night.
Meanwhile, you can choose the firmness level of the Bear Elite Hybrid, which comes in soft, medium or firm, with Bear rating the different firmness levels as 5, 6 and 7 out of 10, respectively. Our tester, Alex, slept on the medium-firm Bear Elite Hybrid and found it most comfortable when back and stomach sleeping, as her spine remained aligned and she felt considerable pressure relief in her hips. However, she didn't sink as much as she would have liked when lying on her side.
Ultimately, the plush pillow top surface makes the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid an ideal mattress for side sleepers and average weight combination sleepers. Lightweight side sleepers would likely enjoy the extra cushioning offered by the soft model of the Bear Elite Hybrid. But heavier side sleepers and strict stomach and back sleepers would benefit from the firmer model, offering a more responsive sleep surface.
Besides breathable coil layers, these mattresses use innovative thermoregulating materials to deliver strong temperature regulation. Copper-infused foam is the common ingredient between these two beds. Copper ribbons are used in mattresses due to their high thermal conductivity. This means they are able to dissipate heat from the mattress surface, helping your body stay cool when lying on it.
One of the first thing our tester noticed about the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid was how cool to the touch GlacioTex cover is. This cover is laced with high conductivity fibers that absorb body heat, pulling it away from your body while you sleep.
Similarly, the cover of the Bear Elite Hybrid is infused with PCM that absorbs heat as it transfers from a solid to a liquid state, wicking heat away from the body. But it's the Celliant cover upgrade where cooling gets serious. This cover has clever synthetic fibers that convert body heat into infrared energy, which is then reflected back into the body to aid thermoregulation and restorative sleep.
Despite testing the Bear Elite Hybrid during a warm July in Texas, our tester remain at a comfortable temperature for sleeping through the night. Overall, these are both top tier cooling mattresses for anyone who sleeps hot. Deciding between them will depend on your sleep style and budget.
✅ You're a side sleeper: The cushioning pillow top surface of the CopperFlex best accommodates side sleepers who need ample pressure relief and cloud-like comfort.
✅ You have a smaller budget: The CopperFlex is a cheaper alternative to the Bear Elite (bearing in mind you must pay extra for maximum cooling effect with the latter mattress), yet its materials and build feel luxurious.
✅ You like to sink into bed: The pillow top on the CopperFlex means you slightly sink into the mattress when you lie on it, providing a cushioning sleep surface.
✅ You want customizable firmness options: There are different firmness options with the Bear Elite, whereas you can only get the Copperflex in medium-firm.
✅ You have an active lifestyle: Celliant technology in the Bear mattress is geared towards muscle recovery. Reflecting infrared energy towards the body, it promotes muscle repair overnight.
✅ You experience back pain: The zoned coil system in the Bear Elite offers more targeted lumbar support to ease pain in back muscles.

I just tested this hybrid mattress — and it packs elite cooling powers for an affordable price
It's no secret that many of the best cooling mattresses can cost a hefty sum, but instead of shelling out for a high-end bed, hot sleepers will likely find that the Glacier Apex Hybrid keeps them just as cool for a fraction of the price. This mid-range cooling mattress comes packed with copper and graphite fibers to regulate your body temperature and ventilated gel foam that helps circulate air through the bed (and prevent trapped body heat). I found the cooling technology in the Glacier Apex Hybrid superior to my much more expensive Tempur-Pedic LuxeBreeze, though I still felt somewhat hot while testing the bed through a major heatwave. Yet as temperatures dropped, I felt the cooling lived up to its promises. Best for: Hot sleepers, side sleepers and lightweight sleepersType: HybridMaterials: Memory foam, gel foam, copper-infused foam and innerspringsFirmness: Soft (3/10)Height: 14 inchesWeight: 81-139lbsSizes: Twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, Cal king, split king Glacier Apex Hybrid is billed as a medium mattress, but my husband and I, who share a bed, agreed that it felt more like a true soft or plush bed. I'd rate it a 3 on our firmness scale. The softness was heavenly for side sleeping since it offered gentle cradling around the shoulder area, but it may be too soft for stomach sleepers who need more hip support. There was also noticeable motion transfer that may disrupt sensitive sleepers. The edge support, or sturdiness of the perimeter of the bed, is good enough for most sleepers. As a side sleeper, I never felt like I was going to roll off. But if you're seeking out a firmer bed or mattress with better motion control, our best mattress buying guide has other options to try. While Glacier Apex Hybrid is the brand's most expensive mattress, its mid-level price is highly affordable compared to other cooling beds. It's also on sale almost year-round with 50% savings or more (take a look at our mattress sale guide for the best times to buy a mattress). Considering the discount, a queen size Glacier Apex Hybrid is still about $300 less than other cooling beds in its price range, and up to $4,000 less than more premium cooling mattresses (such as the Tempur-Pedic line). With the affordable price point comes an industry-leading lifetime warranty and 365-night sleep trial that make the initial investment worth it. Still, be prepared to pay an extra $225 if you opt for white glove setup and old mattress removal, but read on to discover if this service is worth it. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. I've tested the Glacier Apex Hybrid since June and it's consistently been on sale for 50% off. Yet the brand offers even steeper savings around major holidays, including Memorial Day when there was 65% off. But how does this compare to other mid-level cooling beds on the market? The Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe mattress, for instance, is a hybrid at a similar price point. At the time of our review, it was only 25% off and a queen model cost $300 more than the Glacier Apex Hybrid. The Aurora Luxe Cooling also offered a 120-night sleep trial compared to the Glacier Apex Hybrid's much more substantial 365-night sleep trial. The Helix Midnight is another comparable mattress that offers an optional cooling pillow top for an additional fee. In total, a queen model of this bed with the cooling pillow top costs $1,280 at the time of our review (25% off the original price). While you may pay less upfront for the Helix Midnight, you won't get the elite cooling technology of the Glacier Apex Hybrid that includes graphite fibers and copper-infused foam. For these reasons, we believe the Glacier Apex Hybrid has superior value to both mattresses. If you want to snag the best deals on the Glacier Apex Hybrid, the upcoming Labor Day mattress sales could see improved discounts. Glacier Apex Hybrid mattress: twin was $2,198 now $1,099 at GlacierThe Glacier Apex Hybrid offers high-end cooling technology that should keep most sleepers cool. Its soft feel provides gentle cradling and support for side sleepers, while a sturdy bed perimeter can help prevent premature mattress sagging. It also has a lifetime warranty and 365-night sleep trial. The Glacier Apex Hybrid comes with seven layers that make up its tall 14-inch profile. At the top is a plush Euro top with cooling fibers, while just beneath is a graphite-infused memory foam layer that helps dispel body heat. Next is copper-infused memory foam that wicks away moisture (a great feature for folks with night sweats), followed by a gel-infused memory foam layer that contours around the neck, back, shoulders, and hips for pressure relief. The fifth layer is a ventilated gel foam layer that helps circulate air through the bed, further breaking up any trapped heat. Beneath the multiple foam layers is a layer of individually-encased coils to help elevate the spine into neutral alignment (essential for preventing back pain and neck cricks), plus two rows of thicker coils at the edges of the bed to beef up the perimeter. Finally at the bottom is a base layer that helps keep the upper levels in place. Want to compare the Glacier Apex Hybrid to other hybrid builds? Take a look at our best hybrid mattress guide for the leading options. Glacier Apex Hybrid is labeled as a bed with medium firmness, but it has a significantly softer feel that I'd rank as a 3/10 on our firmness scale. If you're looking for a true medium bed, look elsewhere, because this mattress is seriously plush. The good news is that both my husband and I, who have very different sleep styles, both found it largely supportive for our needs. My husband and I got some of the best sleep we've gotten in a long time on this mattress, even through the heat wave I mentioned earlier. While I was initially worried about neck or back pain from sleeping on such a soft bed, we felt supported and that our spines stayed in neutral alignment. However, my husband, who is a 6'1', felt like his hips were slightly sinking into the bed while sleeping on his back. I also noticed the same while stomach sleeping. For those reasons, I'd recommend a firmer bed if you fall into the back or stomach sleeping category, or you're a heavier individual. Still, it's hard to beat the heavenly feel of the Euro top, which grew on me even though I'm a dedicated memory foam mattress fan. I found the plush nature of the Euro top slightly harder to change sleeping positions on. This is known as responsiveness, or how quickly and easily a mattress adapts to your movements. I change sleeping positions often through the night, so while I had to put in extra effort to move around, it wasn't a deal breaker. A queen model of the Glacier Apex Hybrid weighs 115lbs. It arrived on my front porch in a box that my husband managed to carry upstairs to the bedroom on his own. While I definitely recommend having two people move this mattress for safety reasons, it's not impossible on solo terms. Therefore, I don't think white glove delivery is truly necessary unless you have mobility issues, back pain or simply prefer the convenience of it. The mattress arrived vacuum compressed and sealed in plastic that was easy to remove. Within seconds of cutting into the plastic wrapping, the mattress began to inflate. While most mattresses in a box can take anywhere from 24-72 hours to fully expand, I was pleasantly surprised that the Glacier Apex Hybrid sprung into full form in just 30-45 minutes. Therefore, we slept on it the very first night after it arrived. The mattress can also be placed straight on a base and doesn't require a box spring. Mattress off-gassing refers to the odor a new mattress releases when unwrapped. Luckily, the Glacier Apex Hybrid had minimal off-gassing that dissipated once the mattress reached its full form (less than an hour). I didn't notice any odors while sleeping on it. This mattress is made with CertiPUR-US certified foams , which adhere to specific environmental and health safety standards. This was a big bonus to me since both my husband and I suffer from seasonal allergies, and my husband has asthma. In fact, I found that the Glacier Apex Hybrid had significantly less off-gassing than other mattresses I've tested, including the all-memory foam Tempur-Pedic Luxe Breeze that I've slept on since 2023. Score: 5 out of 5 I slept on a queen size Glacier Apex Hybrid for three weeks. I tested it in all major areas of performance, including rating it on pressure relief, motion isolation, edge support, cooling and ease of set-up. While durability is hard to gauge during a three-week testing period, the bed has a sturdy build and high-end materials (such as gel-infused memory foam) that are likely to perform well over the years to come. Most mattresses can last 7-10 years with proper care, and I believe buyers can get that lifespan with this bed. While the Glacier Apex Hybrid is marketed as a medium mattress, I rated it as a soft 3 on our firmness scale. I placed a 50-pound kettlebell in the middle of the mattress to simulate the feel of a person's body sinking into the bed. It sank three inches, which is fairly reasonable given the softer build. Glacier Apex Hybrid is highly cradling, so you can expect some general sinkage. Overall, I felt the Glacier Apex Hybrid offered excellent pressure relief for side sleeping. Its softer and contoured build cradled the shoulders, which tend to be some of the most sensitive joints (this is why very firm beds generally don't work for side sleepers). However, there was slight hip sinkage while back and stomach sleeping, which is why I docked a point from the score. This is likely due to the soft firmness and plush Euro top. Don't let the softness scare you away, though. Although my husband and I could have used more hip support while back and stomach sleeping, neither of us ended up with any hip pain during the testing period. My husband also said his back pain disappeared while sleeping on this bed. The Saatva Classic is another excellent choice for pressure relief. This luxury hybrid has zoned technology where the center-third of the bed is firmer to help elevate the low back and hips into neutral alignment. The Glacier Apex Hybrid has comparable pressure relief to the Nectar Classic and DreamCloud Premier Hybrid, but isn't as pressure-relieving as the Tempur-Pedic LuxeBreeze, which I found best supports all three primary sleep positions. Score: 4 out of 5 I used a 10-pound kettlebell and an empty wine glass to simulate motion transfer. I dropped the weight at various distances from the glass to recreate the feel of someone changing a sleep position next to you. When dropped at a distance of four inches, the wine glass immediately fell over. At 10 inches, the wine glass wobbled but didn't fall (meaning you'd probably feel movement sleeping a foot or so away from a bed partner). At 25 inches, the wine glass also moved slightly but didn't fall over. If you have a restless bed partner, significant motion transfer will likely be noticeable. While hybrid mattresses generally don't absorb movement as well as memory foam mattresses due to their bouncy nature, I was surprised to see the degree of motion transfer on the Glacier Apex Hybrid with its multiple memory foam layers. Even my husband gently changing sleeping positions from his back to his side was enough to wake me from sleep. If you're a bedsharing couple where both partners are sound sleepers, this may not bother you. However, if you're a light sleeper like me or have a fidgety partner, you may want to opt for a slow-moving memory foam bed like the Nectar Classic, which I've found to have low motion transfer. Score: 3 out of 5 The Glacier Apex Hybrid is packed with cooling materials like graphite and copper, which help break up trapped heat, and a cooling cover. It also has ventilated gel foam to push air through the bed, keeping it cool to the touch. Most sleepers will find the cooling good or even excellent on this mattress, though my husband and I found that the cooling wasn't always consistent (some nights, the bed just didn't stay cool). Nonetheless, I never woke up sweaty or felt like I was overheating on the Glacier Apex Hybrid. During the testing we used a cotton mattress protector, cotton bedding and a lightweight down duvet. My husband and I sleep in breathable bamboo pajamas and keep our home at 68°F. Surprisingly, I felt the Glacier Apex Hybrid did a better job cooling than the much more premium Tempur-Pedic LuxeBreeze that I've slept on for the past two years. This is likely due to the hybrid build, since coils help move air through the bed (memory foam is notorious for trapping body heat). Score: 4.5 out of 5 Edge support is an important feature that helps you get in and out of bed, sit supported on the edge while getting dressed and have more sleeping surface so you can stretch out and sleep up to the edge of the mattress. It also helps prevent premature sagging around the perimeters of the bed. As a side sleeper, I never felt like I was going to roll off when curled up at the edge of the bed (a bonus for folks who bed-share like me). I generally found it easy to climb in and out of the bed even with its taller 14-inch height. I could also sit at the edge without slipping off, but there was a bit of sinkage while sitting that I attribute to the soft nature of the bed. To simulate a person sitting at the edge of the bed, I placed a 50-pound kettlebell along the perimeters of the mattress to get some hard data. It sank three inches, which isn't surprising given the cloud-like feel. For this reason, I docked a point from the score even though I didn't personally experience any major issues with edge control. Score: 4 out of 5 The Glacier Apex Hybrid has a high-end look and feel thanks to its quality materials. Though I've only tested the mattress for a few weeks, it looks and feels the same way it did when it arrived on our doorstep. There's no noticeable sagging, tears, odors or any indication that its durability won't hold up to regular use. I believe this mattress is well-made and will easily last 7-10 years, which is the average lifespan of a mattress, with proper care. The reinforced edge support will also help prevent premature sagging. Score: 4.5 out of 5 64 users gave the Glacier Apex Hybrid an average rating of 4.9 stars on the Glacier website at the time of writing. The mattress is only available direct from the brand, which is why we're featuring user reviews posted on the brand's website. Some users claim they've had the best sleep of their life on the Glacier Apex Hybrid, though they note it takes some time to get used to. Others say the mattress has good cooling capabilities and bounce. However, one user said the cooling didn't hold up overnight, which is consistent with the experience my husband and I had with fluctuating cooling. Many buyers praise the quality of the bed and the fast shipping. Others cite comfort and supportive cushioning, especially for side sleeping. Overall, a majority of users note improved sleep and a reduction in sore joints. If you're looking for a cooling mattress with high-end materials at an affordable price point, you'll definitely get your money's worth with the Glacier Apex Hybrid. Its cooling technology should keep most sleepers cool, and its reinforced edge support offers excellent stability for side sleepers or people with mobility issues. The soft nature of this bed further lends itself to side sleeping and keeping the shoulder area pain-free. Still, if you're on a mission to find a firm bed for stomach sleeping, you'll want to look elsewhere. While I didn't experience any hip or back pain sleeping on the Glacier Apex Hybrid, I question whether its softness will be firm enough to support stomach (or even heavier back sleepers) long-term. It also has noticeable motion transfer, which may be a deal breaker for sensitive sleepers, couples who bedshare or people who sleep with pets. However, it's hard to beat the lifetime warranty and 365-night sleep trial. Even if you're not 100% sold on the Glacier Apex Hybrid, you'll have a full year to ultimately decide if it's right for you. For a cooling mattress with three firmness levels to match your sleep style, consider the Saatva Classic, or try the Nectar Classic for great motion control that won't disrupt sleep. The WinkBed Original is a breathable hybrid mattress with a moisture-wicking eucalyptus-derived Tencel cover (a type of cooling fabric) and individually wrapped coils that circulate air through the bed. It comes in four firmness options that you can tailor to your sleep position, as well as a quilted Euro top that will give a similar cloud-like feel as the Glacier Apex Hybrid. Our WinkBed mattress review has all the details. This crowd-pleasing medium bed is for seriously hot sleepers. It features a cooling cover, phase change materials that help pull away body heat and three aluminum graphite bands built directly into the mattress. It also has zoned support with a firmer center-third of the bed to keep your spine in neutral alignment, regardless of your preferred primary sleep position. Find out more in our Casper Snow mattress review. As an even more budget-friendly alternative to the Glacier Apex Hybrid, Leesa Studio Chill will give you many of the same features at a lower price point, including a cooling cover, copper-infused foam and breathable springs. It also has a medium firmness suitable for most side, back and stomach sleepers alike, as well as a limited lifetime warranty. Our Leesa Studio Chill vs Legend Hybrid mattress comparison can tell you more.
