Those people who struggle with sleep temperature regulation often ask us one simple question – what is the best mattress for hot sleepers?
Overheating during sleep
Overheating during sleep is a common problem for many Australians. Excessive heat can cause us to be restless, uncomfortable, and will ultimately affect the quality of our sleep. In contrast, achieving a comfortable sleep temperature will understandably help us to sleep soundly.
Unfortunately, regulating sleep temperature can be complex. It involves a number of factors that include the occupant/s of the bed, room temperature, humidity, seasonal weather changes, type of linen/bedding, type of pillow, and type of mattress. As such, it can be difficult to predict how each person will respond to a specific mattress and bedding products.
Do certain mattresses build up heat more than others?
Softer mattresses tend to accumulate more heat (than firmer mattresses). This is because the thicker the foam layers in a mattress, the greater chance they have of collecting heat.
Foam mattresses also tend to accumulate more heat than innerspring mattresses. Innerspring mattresses (such as the Dusk&Dawn Signature pictured below) allow for better ventilation as air can circulate freely throughout the network of springs.
