Benefits of Gel Memory Foam. A gel memory foam mattress can support each part of the body evenly and individually. Gel Memory foam slowly and automatically adjusts to your body weight and temperature. In addition to the slow, conforming response, gel memory foam offers complete, luxurious and stress-free support. Additionally, when you do move in bed, memory foam gently ‘fills in’ and reshapes itself to your new sleeping posture, cradling every contour of your body. The Latest Gel Memory Foam Technology Gel Memory Foam is a unique material that infuses gel particles into visco-elastic memory foam, creating a plusher and cooler sleeping material. Gel memory foam is more porous or open than conventional foam meaning the cells are interconnected unlike closed cell foam; thereby is more breathable and comfortable than higher density visco-elastic foam. The open-celled physical structure of our foams is self-ventilating. Air travels throughout the material and dissipates body heat regulating your body temperature. Gel Memory foam is naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to allergens, mold, bacteria and dust mites. Why Buy a Cool Gel Memory Foam Mattress? Cool Gel mattresses with gel infused memory foam disperse body heat and create a cooler sleeping surface while retaining the pressure-relieving properties of traditional memory foam. Tossing and turning are dramatically diminished and disrupted sleep patterns are greatly eliminated so you can sleep longer without moving and enjoy the benefits of a deeper, more restful sleep pattern. Adjustable Base Friendly. Classic Brands 14-Inch Cool Gel Memory Foam Mattress is adjustable base friendly, which means it is the best choice to be paired up with an adjustable base instead of a traditional bed frame for added lifestyle and health benefits. The mattress is flexible and durable enough that it will maintain the support and integrity even after bending with the adjustable base. CertiPUR-US Certified. Classic Brands gel memory foam mattresses are CertiPUR-US Certified. The CertiPUR-US program is a voluntary testing, analysis and certification program for flexible polyurethane foam used as a cushioning material in home furnishings such as adult mattresses, crib mattresses, upholstered furniture and some accessory comfort products. Certified flexible polyurethane foams have been independently laboratory tested. Get it Right the First Time. It is also a good idea to know the size and the height of your mattress ahead of time to make sure you are ordering the correct size. Keep in mind that you should combine the height of your bed frame, foundation, or adjustable bed base with the height of your mattress to get a gauge of the how tall your sleep system will be.

If you have trouble staying asleep because you’re just too hot, this Classic Brands mattress is for you. It has all the pressure-relieving benefits of memory foam but with a high-density, cool, gel-infused layer that helps regulate temperature, so you never get too warm. We also love its 14-inch thickness, which offers maximum comfort.
The mattress is silent and, as previously mentioned, the motion transfer is minimal due to the great base layer which holds it all together.

Overview

Cooling mattresses have gained popularity because they are very good at regulating body temperature. This helps people sleep better at night, especially those who are prone to overheating. These mattresses are made of different materials like foam and coils, plus breathable cover fabrics that add to their cooling effects.

The memory foam used in these mattresses provides a “hugging” feel, which many users love. It conforms to the body and may ease pain and relieve pressure. It can also trap heat, though, so manufacturers often add certain materials that have cooling properties. These include charcoal, copper and graphite.

The edges of cooling mattresses often depress down, so keep this in mind when ordering. You may want to go up a mattress size, especially if you share the bed with a sleeping partner. That said, these beds are great for motion isolation, so you probably won’t feel the other person’s movements during the night.

Like other beds, cooling mattresses come in varying levels of firmness. Some are better for back sleepers, while others work best for side or stomach sleepers. If you are happy with the firmness of the bed you already have, stick with that level when purchasing a cooling mattress.

Options like individually-wrapped coils, pillow tops and extra layers of support can all add to your comfort. If you have a real problem staying cool enough to sleep, you may want to consider these extras.

Buying Advice

  • Cooling mattresses are generally easy to set up. Most arrive in vacuum-packed and sealed bags, and you can simply remove the mattress and let it unfold. Be sure to remove it from its packaging within 72 hours.
  • Your mattress will expand in a few minutes. However, it may have a noticeable scent. This will usually diminish within a few hours. You can allow the mattress to off gas for a few days before you use it.
  • The mattress will need to decompress, or fill out to its intended shape. This can take from 48 to 72 hours.
  • Traditional memory foam mattresses offer support, but they may not have the cooling properties you want. Look for gel memory foam mattresses; these provide the cooling effect.
