Summer is finally here following a hot spring and I can honestly say that, thanks to the Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid, I've been sleeping brilliantly regardless of the increasing temperatures. If you're looking for a good deal on a cool bed then the Copperflex Pro Hybrid at up to $480 off at Brooklyn Bedding is worth a look. The best mattresses you can buy online this year are all excellent at regulating temperature and the Copperflex Pro Hybrid is no exception. This 30% discount with the code JULY30 reduces the cost of a queen to $932.40, which is a return to the cheapest price I've seen it sell for in the last year. Let's take a closer look at the deal now and see how it compares to this month's top mattress sales... Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid: twin from $932 now $652.40 at Brooklyn BeddingI rate the 14" Copperflex Pro Hybrid as the best cooling mattress under $1,000 for a queen. It's built with heat conducting copper-infused foams and a GlacioTex cover cover that wicks away heat. Individually encased coils deeper in the mattress allow air to circulate freely, cooling down the bed. As for comfort, there's a pillow top for ample pressure relief and three zoned lumbar support. I'm a combi sleeper who likes to switch positions through the night and have felt comfortable on my side, front and back when sleeping on this mattress. This new Brooklyn Bedding mattress sale reduces a queen to $932.40 (was $1,332), which is great value for a top-rated hybrid mattress (we awarded it a 4.5/5 score in our Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid mattress review). We usually see 25% off this bed, with the current 30% saving appearing only around major sales. A lifetime warranty, free shipping and 120-night trial are also included.

Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid vs GhostBed Luxe: Which pillow top cooling mattress should side sleepers buy?
Type: Copper Foam HybridInternal layers: 7Firmness: 7/10 medium-firmHeight: 14"Sizes: 6Sleep trial: 120 nightsWarranty: LifetimeSale price: from $699 at Brooklyn Bedding Type: All-foamInternal layers: 8Firmness: 6/10 medium-plushHeight: 13"Sizes: 7Sleep trial: 101 nightsWarranty: LifetimeSale price: from $1,349 at GhostBed The Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid and the GhostBed Luxe Foam are two top-rated cooling mattresses, both featuring a cloud-like pillow top that offers excellent pressure relief. While the GhostBed Luxe is our recommended luxury option in our best cooling mattress 2025 guide (with a premium price tag to match) the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is rated as the best luxury mattress for under $1,000. Either one would be a strong option if cooling features and a pillow top are your priorities when finding the best mattress for your sleep needs. Both mattresses are great value in this month's mattress sales, with 25% off at Brooklyn Bedding and an extra 20% off the usual sale price at GhostBed. However, the CopperFlex Pro comes in at a much lower price than the GhostBed Luxe. So, how do the two compare in terms of design, comfort and performance? Stay tuned... Brooklyn Bedding mattress sales tend to stick around no matter the time of year. Yes, they get better around major sale periods, but you can almost always bag great value on the CopperFlex mattress — affordable luxury is its USP, after all. There is 25% off right now, a pretty standard Brooklyn Bedding discount, reducing a queen CopperFlex Pro Hybrid to $999 (was $1,332). Similarly, big savings aren't uncommon in GhostBed mattress sales. You'll never have to pay 'full MSRP for the Luxe mattress and, even better, there is an extra 20% off beds in the GhostBed early 4th July sale. This means you can get a queen size for $1,199.20 now (usually on sale for $1,548). Despite its lower price point, the CopperFlex comes with a longer warranty and trial period than the GhostBed — a particularly generous lifetime warranty as opposed to 25 years (though this should be ample), and a 120-night sleep trial rather than 101 nights. That said, GhostBed will ship free within 24 hours, whereas you'll have to wait five to seven business days for Brooklyn Bedding to dispatch your bed for free. Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress: from $932 $699 at Brooklyn BeddingThe Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is a pillow top mattress with specialist cooling technology at an unbeatable price. It's 25% 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. GhostBed Luxe mattress: from $1,349 $1,079.20 at GhostBedThe GhostBed Luxe all-foam mattress is laced with cooling technology to help you sleep comfortably. But, unlike the CopperFlex, it has premium price tag attached. Alongside the standard discount you can now save an extra 20% with the code GB20, reducing a queen to $1,199.20. There's free delivery, a 101-night trial and 25-year warranty. Both of these 14-inch tall mattresses have a contouring quilted cover infused with heat conducting fibers for cooling relief. The main difference between the two is the fact one (CopperFlex) is a hybrid mattress, while the other (GhostBed) is an all-foam mattress (although there is a more expensive hybrid version available). Beyond a GlacioTex cover and copper foam, the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is made up of quilt foam, transition foam, high-density support foam and a zoned individually-wrapped spring layer composed of 760 coils. This mixture of materials provides a cool, yielding sleep surface that's able to keep many sleepers comfortable, regardless of sleep style or body weight. Moreover, the GhostBed Luxe is a seven layer mattress comprising many different different types of memory foam. Specifically, the first three layers form the quilted top. The next layer is where you find the patented Ghost Ice cooling technology, followed by two inches of gel memory foam. Finally, there is a two-inch bounce foam layer and a 7.5-inch-high density base foam. At such a height of 14 inches, both are sturdy beds with a reliable balance of support and cushioning. As pillow top mattresses, you do slightly sink into them upon laying down but the foams respond to your movements through the night and bounce back when pressure is removed. GhostBed says its new ProCore Elite Layer "delivers 33% more support in the center third of the mattress," providing targeted support and relief for your back. Our reviewer rates the mattress a 6 out of 10 in terms of firmness and says: "There is a soft give to the top layer that creates a hug or cloud-like experience." For this reason, we recommend the GhostBed to lightweight side sleepers who like a cushioning bed. Heavier side sleepers and back sleepers will benefit from the firmer, more responsive CopperFlex Pro Hybrid, which means their hips won't dip too much. The medium-firm (seven out of 10) CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress molds to your movements through the night, offering ample pressure relief while the coils provide spinal support. Our average-weight tester is a combination sleeper and found it comfortable and supportive in every sleep position she took up during the night. However, strict stomach sleepers should generally avoid pillow top mattresses, opting instead for a firmer bed like the Plank Firm mattress to ensure their spines and hips are supported as well as possible while they sleep. As its name suggests, the CopperFlex Pro is infused with copper ribbons with high thermal conductivity properties. Coupled with heat conducting fibers in the GlacioTex cover, this mattress effectively draws heat away from your sleeping body. Breathability is also abundant thanks to an airy coil layer. Our reviewer slept on the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid in a stuffy attic bedroom and credits the bed for helping her sleep through a British heatwave. Hence, it earns 4.5 out of 5 for temperature control. The GhostBed, on the other hand, features more unusual cooling tech. This includes patented Ghost Ice technology, which claims to respond to your body heat through the night. But what actually is the material? It's a combination of graphite and gel-infused memory foam. Graphite works in a similar way to copper, conducting heat away from you. Pushing the GhostBed to the max to see if it lives up to its label as the 'coolest bed in the world', our tester slept on this mattress with a heavy comforter and the thermostat set to 78-80 degrees. They report remained comfortably cool all night long, scoring the mattress 5 out of 5 for temperature regulation. ✅ You sleep on your back: The slightly firmer surface of the CopperFlex Pro ensures your hips don't dip when laying on your back so you an avoid back pain. ✅ You're on a tighter budget: A queen size CopperFlex Pro is $200 cheaper than a queen GhostBed Luxe. In fact, it offers some of the most outstanding value for money in the mattress market overall. ✅ You want a longer trial period: You get 19 nights longer to decide if this is the mattress for you. Plus you're covered by a lifetime warranty with Brooklyn Bedding, compared with 25 years from GhostBed. ✅ You like a soft bed: The memory foam GhostBed is the softer of the two mattresses here, suited to lighter weight sleepers and side sleepers who enjoy cloud-like comfort. ✅ You want your new mattress to get to you ASAP: GhostBed mattresses are dispatched for free within 24 hours, whereas Brooklyn Bedding can take up to seven days to send your bed on its way to you. ✅ You struggle to sleep due to poor temperature regulation: You'll pay more for it, but the GhostBed's advanced cooling tech outperforms the CopperFlex Pro's. The extra few hundred dollars would be worth it for particularly hot sleepers.

The Best Cooling Pillows To Keep Even The Hottest Sleepers Comfortable
If you constantly flip your pillow throughout the night in search of a chillier surface, then you might want to consider upgrading to one of the best cooling pillows. They feature advanced cooling materials and technology to keep you comfortable all night without sacrificing necessary support, ultimately helping you sleep better. Our top pick overall is the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud Dual Cooling Pillow, as it features cooling layers on both sides, a breathable cover and a medium firmness perfect for various sleep positions. The best cooling pillows not only help with temperature, they also keep you comfortable all night. The Tempur-Cloud contains the brand's signature memory foam, which might not appeal to everyone. For that reason, we rounded up six other cooling pillows with different materials, firmnesses and feels to accommodate more sleepers. Read on to find the best match for you. Tempur-Pedic Fill material: Tempur foam, cooling gel | Washable: Yes, cover | Height: 6.4 inches | Trial/warranty: No trial, 5-year warranty Pros: Cons: Tempur-Pedic is known for its high-quality proprietary materials, and this Tempur-Cloud pillow is packed with them. The cover is made from 100% cotton, which is a naturally breathable material; it's also removable and machine washable. Then there is a layer of cooling gel on both sides of the pillow, which helps draw heat away from your head. Sandwiched in the middle is a 6.4-inch tall piece of Tempur Material, a proprietary memory foam that offers a hugging sensation and a medium firmness. 'If you overheat at night, the Tempur-Cloud is a great option,' says one of our testers. 'I've slept hot for as long as I can remember. I'd flip my pillow over countless times, trying to find the cool side. With the Tempur-Cloud, I find that the surface stays cool all night.' The Tempur-Cloud doesn't come with a return policy, but it is backed by a five-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Just note that though the brand says it can work for all sleeping positions, we think it's too lofty for most stomach sleepers and is best suited for back and side sleepers. GhostBed Fill material: Gel memory foam, phase change material, mesh | Washable: Yes, cover | Height: 6 inches | Trial/warranty: 101-night trial, 5-year warranty Pros: Cons: GhostBed mattresses have impressed us with their cooling abilities, and the brand's Ghost Pillow is no different. It features a cool-to-the-touch cover that protects a memory foam core. Unlike traditional memory foam that's known for trapping heat, this foam is perforated and has phase change material and mesh covering it. The different layers work together to pull heat away from the head and allow for air to pass through. Mattress and sleep editor McKenzie Dillon says, 'This was the first pillow that made me believe they could truly be cooling. My husband sleeps hot, and the Ghost Pillow has worked wonders for him. The cooling material in the cover has also stood the test of time, as it's still cold to the touch after two years.' Note that you can unzip the outer cover and machine wash it on a delicate, cold cycle (then hang dry). Coop Sleep Goods Fill material: Gel-infused memory foam, cooling gel, microfiber | Washable: Yes, cover | Height: Adjustable | Trial/warranty: 100-night trial, 5-year warranty Pros: Cons: Coop Sleep Goods regularly tops our best pillows lists with its adjustable, conforming microfiber fill, but the Cool+ model takes it up a notch with a cool-to-the-touch cover and gel-infused, plus-shaped memory foam. It has a very similar look as the bestselling Original Adjustable Pillow, but with added cooling prowess. The pillow comes with extra fill, so you can plump it up (or down) to your liking. I tested this pillow and found it has a cooling sensation and is a very breathable option. The plus-shaped foam offers a fluffy, contouring memory foam feel without any quicksand tendencies. The cut-out shape also allows for healthy alignment as a side sleeper. If you switch to your back throughout the night, Coop Sleep Goods also offers a similar crescent version of the pillow for both sleep positions—or if you'd prefer a standard pillow shape, it offers that, too. Regardless of the shape you choose, the brand provides a 100-night trial and five-year warranty, so you can remain confident in your purchasing decision. Just note it takes time to figure out the best level of fill for your individual needs. Purple Fill material: Hyper-elastic polymer, ventilated Talalay latex | Washable: Yes, cover | Height: 5.5 (low), 6.5 (medium), 7.5 (tall) inches | Trial/warranty: 100-night trial, 1-year warranty Pros: Cons: I was initially hesitant to try the Purple Harmony Pillow, as it gives a nontraditional feel that seemed far-fetched for comfort, but, wow, was I quick to change my tune. It's been my favorite pillow now for almost a year. Along with a breathable cover made with moisture-wicking mesh, it features Purple's GelFlex Grid (a gel-like, honeycomb-pattern material) wrapped around Talalay latex; the blend does an exceptional job promoting airflow and maintaining a cool sensation. The pillow's supportive yet airy and offers a bouncy feel. It comes in three different heights designed for different sleeping positions and body frames. The low is recommended for smaller body types along with stomach and back sleepers, while the medium and tall are recommended for side and combination sleepers or folks with medium to larger frames. Purple offers a 100-night trial and a one-year warranty. Similar to others on this list, only the cover is machine washable on a cold cycle and should be air dried. Plufl Fill material: Memory foam, microfiber | Washable: Yes, cover | Height: 9 inches | Trial/warranty: 100-night trial, 1-year warranty Pros: Cons: Foreshadowed by its name, the Hugl is a body pillow you can comfortably hug, and feel hugged in return (thanks to its ergonomic shape). It's a cozy hug but not a warm one—the cover's made with moisture-wicking bamboo and cooling polyethylene fabric, while the fill is adjustable and promotes airflow. One of our testers says the pillow kept her body temperature comfortable during the hottest summer nights in New York City. But it doesn't just shine in temperature regulation—the memory foam and microfiber fill offer a supportive, medium-firm feel that can keep you comfortable all night. Our tester especially appreciates the contoured shape of the Hugl Body Pillow, saying, 'This makes sinking into it incredibly comfortable, with the bonus of also being comfortable when adjusted against my headboard into a more upright position that's suitable for reading or watching TV.' The cover's also machine washable. You can choose between a standard or large size but, depending on the size and color combination, you may have to pre-order. Sleep Number Fill material: Foam | Washable: Yes, cover | Height: 4 to 5 inches | Trial/warranty: 100-night trial, 1-year warranty Pros: Cons: Rather than having removable shredded fill like most adjustable pillows, the True Temp Adapt Pillow (ultimate model) has three removable inserts that you can experiment with to find your best fit. As for its firmness, one of our testers who prefers extra-soft pillows says, 'While this pillow is a tad firmer than I would like, I really appreciate that I can adjust the loft depending on whether I'm sleeping (I use two inserts) or using it under my knees when my lower back sometimes bothers me (in this case I use all three).' She notes it's helped relieve her back tension as a side-back combo sleeper. On top of its foam inserts, the True Tempt Adapt has a cooling cover made of polyethylene, polyester and spandex, along with interior layers consisting of cotton and lyocell (a material made from wood pulp) that are breathable and moisture wicking. Our tester notes, 'I always sleep hot and wake up sweaty. I like the cool-touch cover because it's true to its name; that said, it is a bit slippery and tends to slide a bit. Luckily, it is still temperature regulating even with the linen pillowcase I put over it.' The cover is also machine washable and can be tumble dried on low. Bedgear Fill material: Foam, cooling gel, silklike fibers | Washable: Yes, cover | Height: 4.75, 5.25, 5.75 and 6.5 inches | Trial/warranty: 30-night trial, 1-year warranty Pros: Cons: Every layer of the Bedgear Night Ice Performance Pillow has advanced tech and thoughtful cooling touches in it, from the ventilated cover to the cooling gel foam and silklike fibers inside. Our tester says it delivers a cool-to-the-touch sensation that she compares to leaving your pillow in the car overnight during the winter. And not only does she report that it stays that way while sleeping, she notes that she felt its cooling powers through three different types of pillowcases. (She felt the washable cover was a little scratchy without one.) The Night Ice Performance Pillow is offered in four different height profiles; you can fill out three questions to get a recommendation from the brand on which one to choose. In general, though, side sleepers do best with a loftier pillow, back sleepers with a medium loft and stomach sleepers with a low profile. If you choose the wrong loft and/or don't like it, you can return the pillow within 30 days. Bedgear also offers a 100-night return window for unopened pillows and a one-year warranty. Our team of editors is dedicated to providing the best sleep recommendations and advice to help as many people as possible achieve their greatest rest. We've delved into everything sleep, from the best mattresses to sunrise alarm clocks, and we have a robust library of mattress and sleep stories and guides. When choosing the best cooling pillows, we started by looking at top-rated products from reputable brands. There are many considerations to take into account when choosing a pillow in general, but even more so when also wanting a cooling option. From what makes the pillow cooling to your own sleep style, here's what to consider. Most of the pillows on this list feature cooling technology that's either popular in the cooling fabric space, such as Outlast or 37.5, or is a proprietary material from the brand. Fabrics infused with this tech actively work to pull heat away from the body and maintain a cooling sensation. Some of the foam pillows on this list also include gel infusions or perforations to help promote airflow and prevent body heat from trapping. There are also more natural cooling materials and fibers often used in cooling pillows' covers, such as bamboo, Tencel or cotton. 'Cooler fibers like those found in natural fibers like cotton can be helpful mainly because of their structure," says Bea Ovalle, CEO and founder of O-valle. Cotton's hollow, tubular structure in particular promotes breathability and keeps moisture from trapping. The fill material is important for cooling, but it's also what provides the necessary support and comfort for your head and neck. There are different types of fills brands use for cooling pillows, with these being some of the most popular: Sleeping position plays a huge role in the pillow you should choose: 'Depending on your preferred sleep position, the needed support will likely be a little bit different,' says Dr. Angela Holliday-Bell, a board-certified physician and certified sleep specialist. She says back sleepers need medium-firm support, side sleepers need firm, thicker support and stomach sleepers need softer, more compressible support in order to maintain healthy sleep posture. It's important to find the right support and firmness level for your sleeping position to prevent neck or back pain. Yes, we've tested several cooling pillows that actually work, including the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud Breeze Dual Cooling Pillow. It features gel cooling layers along with a cool-touch cover. We think the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud Breeze Dual Cooling Pillow is a great pillow to keep you cool and is best suited for side and back sleepers. If you're a stomach sleeper, the Purple Harmony in the lowest height is a better option. A cooling pillow with a low loft, or height, is the best for stomach sleepers, such as the thinnest Purple Harmony Pillow model or the Coop Sleep Goods Cool+ Adjustable Pillow (standard model) with less fill inside.
