Cooling Pad for Bed - Pressure Activated Gel Provides Instant Relief - Ideal for Fevers, Hot Flashes, Night Sweats

I rave about this pillow cooling pad! NO refrigeration needed! Works as soon as your body touches it. I purchased one years back and the gel finally got hard and useless so I was extremely happy to find the replacement. It doesn't show in the photos, but this pad can fold down to 1/3 the width, which comes in very handy for me. I place this on top of my pillowcase. The cooling effect lasts about 10-15 minutes. Since I am a side sleeper I only use half, and then if I need more I rotate it. When not in use I put it either under my pillow or next to me, since it folds up. Yes, it does get warm after that 15 or so minutes of use. But that is because it absorbs the heat from your face, or wherever you use it (sometimes I put it directly on my chest if I am that hot). It cools back down on its own when not in use. Worth every penny and then some to get a good start to my nights sleep. For added comfort, I only buy natural fiber bedding such as linen because of its temperature regulating properties. Hope this review helps.

This cooling pad has been an absolute game-changer for me during menopause. Since I don’t accept hormonal therapy, finding natural and effective relief from hot flashes and night sweats has been a challenge—until now. The pressure-activated gel provides instant cooling the moment I lie down, and it genuinely helps regulate my body temperature throughout the night. I love that it doesn’t need to be plugged in or frozen; it just works on its own. The cooling effect is soothing, not shocking, and it helps me fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer without waking up drenched in sweat. The pad is comfortable, well-made, and fits perfectly on my bed without shifting around. If you’re experiencing menopausal hot flashes or night sweats and are looking for a non-hormonal solution, I highly recommend this cooling pad. It’s simple, effective, and has significantly improved my sleep quality and overall comfort.

Many of these reviews are from women who understably need relief from hot flashes. What I think is lacking are comments from men. Lets face it guys we want the temperature much lower then the ladies begining early in life. I purchased this pad over 2 years ago becuase I find it difficult to go to sleep hot. Yes without the pad eventually my core temperture drops as I relax and stop moving but for me this can take 2 hours. My research found several devices that appear would provide relief but many were very $. I bought this pad based on ths reviews and overall I agree with most of the comments. I lay the pad on by bed on top of the sheet. When I first lay down the cold sensation is little shocking but very quickly I begin to enjoy it and I start to relax. I now look forward to laying down because the relif is instant. Yes the pad does not stay cold and yes it can get a little warm but I find the pad pulls the heat from my body and stores it within the pad. This doesn't bother me becuase what happens is I begin to get cold and the pad begin to provide relief from the cold. Just writing this sounds crazy because I am always hot but it works. Give it try.

It is very cold!!!! Problems... It's very heavy. The material is slick. My wife thought it was a great idea but after 3 hours it turned into a heating pad and absorbed her body heat n radiated it. Also felt wet as is. I made a cover/ case for it, and it helped. Over all great in theory, but needs to be taken back to the drawing board.

I wish I'd bought the smaller ones, because wow do these things cool you down! Too much! Don't lie on these directly skin-to-pad because you will stick to it and get uncomfortable. Don't stay on them too long because they'll heat up to your body temp and be ineffective. I highly highly recommend buying two smaller ones, not one large one, not only because they're dense and unwieldy, but so that you can switch off and allow one to cool you off while the other sits over there somewhere and dissipates its collected body heat. Also, you'll have more control over how much of your body is chilled at once. And if you buy more than one, you can put one in your dog's bed and help your pup cool off too. And I wonder...if I buy a small enough pad, could I maybe ALWAYS have a nice cool pillow???

First thing you should know is this sucker is HEAVY! It's heavier and floppier than a weighted blanket. It's like moving a dead body in the middle of the night kinda heavy (Eh....ok...I'm guessing here, really, I have zero actual experience moving corpses nor do I have any plans to. Ew. I promise, this is just a guess, but it is super heavy and impossible to move half awake! Like trying to move your kid after they fall asleep in the car kinda heavy). So do not plan (like I dumbly did) to move it around when you need it. I already had the "pillow" so I thought I could move this. NO way irl. Next thing is it does get hot after a while because it sucks the heat out of you. So if you heat up it's better to have room so YOU can move since this is a heavy slab of flappy corpse (again, guessing, but you get the idea). But suck the heat out of you? Yes indeed. And it's gloriously cold. The other thing is I would not leave it in the bed in the morning. It feels almost damp and I would worry about mold even with my tempurpedic mattress. SO air it all out, but that said it is 100% worth it if you have night sweats or sudden bursts of heat from medicine, medical stuff, or menopause, or are blessed like me and have all the above. So no one else has to suffer with my turning the air to arctic because I suddenly turn into lava or a furnace-like a pizza oven in Florida in August. I slept so well with this! And the heat build up for my aches and stuff is not a bother. It actually felt nice because I go from super hot to freezing. I hope it lasts and will update after a time. Hope that helps!

This pillow is not soft or comfortable. It’s a bit stiff and cooling does not last long enough. Definitely not what’s stated in the detail. Not worth it.

This cooling mat (small, pillow-sized) performed as described by the manufacturer. But, cooling lasted only 1 hour. The mat is not comfortable directly on skin; I place a thin towel over the mat before laying on it. For longer cooling, one would need at least two mats to use in rotation. I used the mat in combination with a standard ice pack (wrapped in towel) to keep cool all night. Have only been using this mat for about a week, so its durability is untested. Interesting cooling technology, but ice packs work, too.
