Why we recommend the Bear Elite Hybrid to hot sleepers

After re-testing every inch of the top 5 mattresses at the end of last year, the Bear Elite Hybrid emerged as the best cooling mattress on the market.
This 14″ hybrid mattress is comprised of responsive coils, cushioning foams infused with copper, and a cover that uses moisture-wicking HydroCool® technology, and — if you pay an additional fee — Celliant, which has exceptional thermal effusivity.
That means that it draws heat away from you, before dissipating it across the surface of the mattress. Our temperature regulation tests showed that the Bear out-performed every other mattress for its cooling rate.

As well as being exceptionally cooling, the Bear boasts a zoned coil lumbar support system and excellent pressure relief, making it one of the best mattresses for back pain you can buy.
It comes in three firmness options, so is suitable for practically every type of sleeper. We found it to be responsive, which is great news for anyone who likes to shift positions throughout the night. However, the downside to that is that you will feel a little bit of motion transfer.
Still, if you’re a hot sleeper (particularly one with back pain), then this is an excellent option and a crowd-pleasing price.
