The 10 Best Cooling Pillows

Made from material that adapts to the user's head, neck, and shoulders, the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud Breeze (appx. $116) is suitable for most styles of sleepers. It has cooling gel on both sides, making it ideal for warm climates, even if you perspire quite a bit.

The Purple Cradling is made from a hyper-elastic polymer that is arranged in a triangular grid pattern, which results in a pillow that is firm around the edges, yet cushy in the middle. This also allows for a lot of airflow to your skin.

Because the TruContour Advanced (around $40) comes in a soft or firm option, sleepers who prefer either variety can enjoy the comforting features of this model. Its cover has micro mesh over the gel to help that material meet its full cooling potential, and honeycomb on the other side.

An eco-friendly option, the Xtreme Comforts Kool-Flow (around $60) has a case made from sustainable bamboo that's pleasant to the touch and micro-vented to help circulate air and regulate temperature. Plus, it's filled with highly-supportive memory foam.

Tested by an ergonomist to ensure its comfort and support, the Casper Sleep Three-Layer (around $89) is designed to properly align the neck and head to reduce the chances you wake with aches and pains. Also, its core has channels that allow air to circulate throughout.

The Sleep Innovations Reversible (around $29) is designed with memory foam on one side and a gel-infused material on the other, so it's suitable for individuals whose temperatures fluctuate throughout the night. This American-made option has a nice density, too.

You won't be stuck with one firmness level with the Coop Home Goods Eden (about $70) because it lets you access the microfiber fill, so you can remove or add it to your liking. This makes it a smart choice for those who sleep in a different position one night to the next.

If you sweat a lot while you snooze, the Classic Brands Ventilated (around $38) may be the solution you've been looking for. Not only is it soft and supportive, but it is made with a special fiber that wicks away moisture. Also, its knit cover works to evenly disperse body heat.

The Classic Brands Reversible (about $25) sits at a lofty five inches high and has an elegant trim. One side contains a gel pad that dissipates warmth, and the whole thing is enveloped with a mesh cover to keep the surface from overheating.

Side sleepers should find the solidity and height of the Perfect Cloud Double Airflow (around $55) to be just right. It combines ventilated visco foam with mesh trim to do just what its name promises and is a good balance of supportive and soft.
