The Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid and the Purple Mattress are cooling mattresses with strong motion isolation, making them great beds for restless couples. While both offer exceptional cooling and comfort, there are some key differences between the Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid and the Purple Mattress that set them apart, particularly their height, materials and design.
Both of these mattresses make it into our best cooling mattress of the year guide thanks to their innovative climate control and top-quality materials. While the Purple uses a stretchy gel grid, the CopperFlex Pro features heat-conducting copper foams.
While both mattresses offer excellent value for money, they are still hefty investments, so it's important you're sure on which is the best mattress for you before splashing your cash. Plus, it's worth timing your purchase to benefit from regular mattress sales so you bag the best deal, and here we'll help you do just that.
The Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid is an affordable luxury mattress that delivers a premium feel, look and sleep experience for less $$$, and it's almost constantly discounted in Brooklyn Bedding mattress sales. There is 25% off now, cutting a queen size to $999 from $1,332.
This isn't the cheapest we've seen it, as it dropped to $932.40 after a 30% discount around Memorial Day. However, we can confidently recommend this bed whatever the discount. Even at MSRP (which it never is) you'd be getting outstanding value on a bed of this prestige.
Purple mattress sales aren't as persistent as Brooklyn Bedding. But you're in luck if you're shopping right now as there's $300 off a twin to full size Purple Mattress and $500 off a queen size and above. This reduces a queen to $999 (was $1,499).
If you're after a smarter sleep set-up you can currently add a queen Purple Premium smart adjustable bed base for $995 (was $1,195). For this extra dough, you'll be able to customize the head and foot elevation of your bed and stop snoring with help from Purple's anti-snore technology (features that will turn your mattress into a sleep set-up akin to some of the best smart beds you can buy online).
Brooklyn Bedding tops Purple in terms of extras. Both come with free shipping but Brooklyn Bedding offer a reassuring lifetime warranty, while Purple's warranty is just 10 years, which is one of the lowest in the mattress industry. Plus you get an extra 20 days' trial with Brooklyn Bedding.
Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid mattress: twin was $932 now $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.
Purple Mattress: twin was $999 now $699 at PurpleThe 9.5" Purple Mattress is made with the brand's signature GelFlex motion-quelling layer alongside foams and a breathable cover. It's not often discounted, but right now there's between $300 and $500 off. You can add an adjustable bed frame from $499 and enjoy benefits like free shipping in 1-2 days, a 100-night trial and 10-year warranty.
Both mattresses are built with quality yet affordable materials and are delivered in a box. The main difference between the two is height, with the Copperflex standing 14" tall and the Purple is shallower at 9.5".
We think the Copperflex Pro Hybrid is one of the best hybrid mattresses around, with a thoughtful balance of coils and foam to suit different sleep styles and sleep needs. On top, there's a contouring honeycomb stitch GlacioTex cover, followed by quilt foam, copper foam, a layer of up to 760 encased coils and high density support foam. Overall it feels like a premium mattress straight out the box, punching above its price point.
The Purple Mattress has a more unusual build featuring the brand's patented GelFlex grid, a dynamic and durable hyper-elastic layer that flexes under pressure but springs back into shape immediately. Next is a mixture of different kinds of memory foam for different purposes, including comfort foam and support foam. This is all wrapped up in a soft, breathable cover that optimizes the GelFlex grid's performance.
Despite their different builds, both these mattresses are rated medium-firm, coming in at 7/10 on the mattress firmness scale. Providing a balance of support and cushioning, these mattresses suit most sleep styles.
The Purple Mattress's polymer grid is reportedly very responsive and "bouncy". Our reviewer says it "gives the impression that you're floating while you sleep: there's a simultaneous sensation of feeling completely supported, while hovering on the top of the mattress." This makes it a good bed for combination sleepers who switch their sleep style up through the night as they won't have to fight their way out of foams.
Meanwhile, the Copperflex Pro Hybrid is a pillow top mattress, meaning you do slightly sink in when you lay on it as the foam contours to your body. For this reason, we primarily recommend it to side sleepers, even though our average-weight tester felt supported and comfortable in all sleeping positions.
With strong motion isolation ratings in sleep studio and real-life tests, both these mattresses are top-rated mattresses for couples. Our tester found they could sleep peacefully on the Copperflex Pro Hybrid even with a wriggling toddler next to them. Additionally, our Purple mattress reviewer says: "The unique polymer technology was excellent for reducing motion transfer."
Note that heavier sleepers or strict stomach sleepers should look elsewhere. If this is you, you're better off with an extra firm sleep surface that pushes back against your movements through the night, keeping your spine aligned. The Plank Firm mattress is our number one recommendation here.
Both these mattresses are designed with hot sleepers in mind, employing innovative cooling technology to help you beat the heat in bed.
The Brooklyn Bedding has foams infused with copper ribbons and a cool-to-the-touch GlacioTex cover, which work together to conduct heat away from the mattress surface and your sleeping body overnight. Our tester slept on this mattress in a stuffy attic bedroom through a British heatwave and didn't have trouble regulating their body temperature.
On the other hand, the Purple Mattress's polymer grid has over 2,800 open air channels providing serious airflow and heat dissipation. On top of that there's a breathable cover, which helped keep our reviewer "cool and comfortable" during the two-week testing period.
Overall, these are both great cooling mattresses for anyone who runs a little hot at night. That said, if you're battling severe night sweats you may benefit from more advanced active temperature regulation, found in the likes of the Eight Sleep Pod 4 mattress cover.
✅ You or your partner weigh 230lbs or more: How thick your mattress should be depends on your body weight and sleep style. Experts recommend people heavier than 230lbs sleep on a mattress that is at least 12" deep, for optimal support.
✅ You don't want to buy right now: Discounts stick around permanently at Brooklyn Bedding, so you can always bag a good deal.
✅ You want more financial reassurance: The Brooklyn Bedding comes with a longer sleep trial and warranty, giving you more time to change your mind.
✅ You like to sleep on top of your mattress rather than sink in: The Purple Mattress's polymer grid keeps you on top of the bed rather than sinking into foams.
✅ You have a smaller bedroom: The 9.5" design is relatively slim, making it a better fit for small spaces and light sleepers.
✅ You want a smart bed bundle: You can add an adjustable base to the Purple mattress with extra savings — a good choice for people with mobility issues.

Summer travel isn't as easy as it used to be for airlines
Making money in the summer is not as easy as it used to be for airlines. Airlines have drawn down their schedules in August for a variety of reasons. Some travelers are opting to fly earlier, in June or even May, as schools let out sooner than they used to. Demand for flights to Europe has also been moving from the sweltering, crowded summer to the fall, airline executives have said, especially for travelers with more flexibility, like retirees. Carriers still make the bulk of their money in the second and third quarters. But as travel demand has shifted, and in some cases customers have become altogether unpredictable, making the third quarter less of a shoo-in moneymaker for airlines. Airline planners have been forced to get more surgical with schedules in August as leisure demand tapers off from the late spring and summer peaks. Labor and other costs have jumped after the pandemic, so getting the mix of flights right is essential. Carriers across the industry have been taking flights off the schedule after an overhang of too much capacity pushed down fares this summer. But the capacity cuts are set to further drive up airfares, which rose 0.7% in July from last year, and a seasonally adjusted 4% jump from June to July, according to the latest U.S. inflation read. U.S. airlines' domestic capacity is down 6% in August from July, according to aviation data firm Cirium. The same period last year, they cut domestic capacity just over 4% compared with just a 0.6% downsize between the months in 2023, Cirium said. From July to August in 2019, airlines cut 1.7% of capacity. Carriers that bet on a blockbuster year were left disappointed earlier in 2025 when consumers weighed President Donald Trump's on-again, off-again tariffs and economic uncertainty. To attract more customers, many airlines slashed prices, even for flights in the summer peaks in late June and July. Demand has improved, airline executives said on earnings calls in recent months, but carriers including Delta, American, United and Southwest last month lowered their 2025 profit forecasts compared with their sunnier outlooks at the start of the year. Further complicating matters, some travelers have been also waiting until the last minute to book flights. "It really was, I would say, middle of May, when we started seeing Memorial Day bookings pick up," JetBlue Airways President Marty St. George told investors last month. "We had a fantastic Memorial Day, much better than forecast, and that really carried into June. But it does have the feeling of people just waited a long time to make the final decisions." Now, some airlines are already thinking about how to tackle ever-changing travel patterns next year. "Schools are going back earlier and earlier but what you also see is schools are getting out earlier and earlier," Brian Znotins, American Airlines' vice president of network planning and schedule, told CNBC. Public schools in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas, returned on Aug. 5, and Atlanta public schools resumed Aug. 4. In 2023, more than half of the country's public school students went back to classrooms by mid-August, according to the Pew Research Center. Southwest, with its Texas roots, ended its summer schedule on Aug. 5 this year, compared with Aug. 15 in 2023. American, for its part, is shifting some peak flying next year. "We're moving our whole summer schedule change to the week before Memorial Day," Znotins said. "That's just in response to schools letting out in the spring." Those plans include additions of a host of long-haul international flights. "We are a year-round airline," he continued. Znotins said the carrier has to not just make sure there are enough seats for peak periods, but know when to cut back in lighter quarters, like the first three months of the year. "For a network planner, the harder schedules to build are the ones where there's lower demand because you can't just count on demand coming to your flights," Znotins said. "When demand is lower, you need to find ways to attract customers to your flights with a good quality schedule and product changes." American said its schedule by seats in August was on par with July in 2019, but that this year it was 6% lower in August from July. American forecast last month it could lose an adjusted 10 cents to 60 cents a share in the third quarter, below what analysts are expecting. CEO Robert Isom said on an earnings call that "July has been tough," though the carrier says trends have improved. The capacity cuts, coupled with more encouraging booking patterns lately, are fueling optimism about a better supply and demand balance in the coming weeks. "The mistake some airlines make, you tend to try to build a church for Easter Sunday: You build your capacity foundation for those peak periods and then you have way too many [employees]," said Raymond James airline analyst Savanthi Syth. She said it was unusual to see airlines across the board pruning their summer schedules before even the peak period ended, but she is upbeat about demand, and fares, going forward. "Time has passed and people are getting a little more certainty on what their future looks like and they're more willing to spend," she said.

Oil prices little changed as industry report points to slowing U.S. demand
Oil prices were little changed on Wednesday after falling in the previous session after an industry report showed U.S. crude stockpiles climbed last week illustrating the end of the seasonal summer demand period is nearing. Brent crude futures gained 3 cents to 66.15 a barrel at 0102 GMT after dropping 0.8% in the previous session. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures fell 3 cents to $63.14 after declining 1.2%. Crude inventories in the U.S., the world's biggest oil consumer, rose by 1.52 million barrels last week, market sources said, citing American Petroleum Institute figures on Tuesday. Gasoline inventories dropped while distillate inventories gained slightly. Should the U.S. Energy Information Administration data set for release later on Wednesday also show a decline, it could indicate that consumption during the summer driving season has peaked and refiners are easing back their runs. The demand season typically runs from the Memorial Day holiday at the end of May to the Labor Day holiday in early September. Analysts polled by Reuters expect the EIA report to show crude inventories fell by about 300,000 barrels last week. Outlooks issued by OPEC and the EIA on Tuesday pointed to increased production this year which also weighed on prices. But both expect output in the U.S., the world's largest producer, to decline in 2026 while other regions will increase oil and natural gas production. U.S. crude production will hit a record 13.41 million barrels per day in 2025 due to increases in well productivity, though lower oil prices will prompt output to fall in 2026, the EIA forecast in a monthly report. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries' monthly report said global oil demand will rise by 1.38 million bpd in 2026, up 100,000 bpd from the previous forecast. Its 2025 projection was left unchanged. The White House on Tuesday tempered the expectations for a quick Russia-Ukraine ceasefire deal, which may lead investors to reconsider an end to the war soon and any easing on sanctions Russian supply, which had been supporting prices. U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin are due to meet in Alaska on Friday to discuss ending the war. "Trump downplayed expectations of his meeting with President expectations of additional sanctions on Russian crude continue to fall," ANZ senior commodity strategist Daniel Hynes wrote in a note.
