I'm a hot sleeper and I know that the advice is to use wool but I've tried a Hypnos and got hot within 10 minutes
I've tried the vogue vegan mattress - hot
the Jay-be cool mattress - hot
memory foam is supposed to be hot - it is
reflex foam - not as hot
tencel maybe a good option as is gel

my theory is to buy a thin mattress as heat disperses quicker

I'm still trying to find one that is good but I think I will buy a thin one with a topper

sandelf if he and I shared a bed the bed would be on fire. It would only take the slightest movement/friction. I just throw my duvet off and on depending on how hot I feel.

I go to bed shivering with a hot water bottle so it must be my mattress and/or topper. I love it as it is easier to cool down.

You can buy cooling mattress toppers or cooling blankets that might do the trick!

Why not go back to one made of traditional materials? A quality pocket sprung made from either wool or silk for example?
Hypnos used to do cotton, wool, cashmere and silk.
I love their mattresses.

DH finds he very easily overheats in bed. It is interfering with his sleep. He has tried 'Emma' and 'Simba' - any suggestions for a mattress that will be reasonably cushioning yet cooling? He weighs about 75kg.
