Take a look at an excerpt from their review below, and click HERE to read the full article. Keep scrolling for expert tips on choosing the perfect mattress and all the details on why the Aurora Luxe Cooling Mattress earned its title as the Best Cooling Mattress.

"If you're a hot sleeper, you know just how hard it is to find the right pillows, sheets, comforter and mattress to keep you cool all night long. Luckily, the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora has built-in cooling features to avoid excess body heat and keep hot sleepers cool.

First Impressions

The Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe looks like a pretty premium mattress with its royal blue edges and bright top white cover. Once you roll it out of the box and it decompresses, you can tell you're about to be sleeping on a quality mattress. However, the cooling abilities really did surprise me. I'm wary of mattress brands that claim their beds are ultra-cool because I'm often left disappointed, but the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora mattress is one of the coolest beds I've tested. It's also really comfortable and versatile at that. I'm honestly surprised this mattress isn't more expensive, but that's Brooklyn Bedding for you.

Feel

Imagine the comfiest couch you've ever fallen into -- the inside is likely made with soft, squishy foam. That's what the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe mattress feels like. It's made with neutral foam rather than slow-responding memory foam, so it bounces back much quicker to pressure than a bed like the Nectar mattress or the Amerisleep. If you press your hand into the mattress, you won't see the shape of your palm and fingers linger in the foam. It's a pleasant feel that I think most people will enjoy -- similar to how it's hard to stick your nose up at pizza or puppies"

Importance of Sleep Quality

What Is Sleep Quality?

Sleep quality goes beyond the number of hours you sleep—it’s about how efficiently your body rests and recovers. Indicators of good sleep quality include:

Falling asleep within 30 minutes of going to bed.
Spending at least 85% of your time in bed sleeping.
Waking up no more than once per night (or twice if you’re over 65).

If sleep disorders like insomnia are affecting your rest, check out resources on our Sleep Science Blog or consult a healthcare professional.

How to Improve Sleep Quality

To achieve better sleep, start with these simple steps:

Stick to a consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends.
Create a calming bedtime routine—try reading or meditating.
Ensure your bedroom is dark, quiet, and cool.
Most importantly, invest in a high-quality mattress designed for your unique sleep needs.

Why a Great Mattress is Key to Better Sleep

The right mattress plays a significant role in how well you sleep. Choosing one of the best-rated mattresses for your needs can:

Enhance spinal alignment and reduce back pain.
Minimize motion transfer, ensuring undisturbed rest.
Provide pressure relief to sensitive areas like hips and shoulders.

Investing in a top-notch mattress leads to better sleep, which boosts cognitive function, physical health, and emotional well-being.

How to Choose the Best Mattress for You

When shopping for a mattress, consider these essential factors:

1. Firmness Levels

Firmness determines how a mattress feels when you lie down. It varies from plush to extra firm and depends on your sleep style:

Back Sleepers: Medium-firm to firm mattresses offer balanced support.
Side Sleepers: Softer mattresses cushion shoulders and hips.
Stomach Sleepers: Firmer mattresses prevent excessive sinking, keeping the spine aligned.

2. Support and Comfort

A supportive mattress is critical for spinal alignment and reducing pressure on your back and hips. Look for features like:

Zoned support systems.
Memory foam layers for personalized comfort.

3. Sleep Position

Your preferred sleep position heavily influences mattress choice:

Back Sleepers require medium-firm options for optimal support.
Side Sleepers benefit from softer mattresses for pressure relief.
Stomach Sleepers need firmer options to maintain alignment.
Combination Sleepers thrive with hybrid mattresses that adapt to multiple positions.

4. Material Options

Brooklyn Bedding offers a range of premium mattresses tailored to every preference:

Hybrid Mattresses: Featuring individually encased coils and foam layers for targeted support and cooling.
Memory Foam Mattresses: Known for exceptional pressure relief and motion isolation, ideal for couples and side sleepers.

Aurora Luxe - Best Cooling Mattress

The Aurora Luxe Hybrid mattress is perfect for staying cool while you sleep, especially for people who sleep hot. Its cover is literally cool to the touch, and the inclusion of gel- and copper-infused foam, along with the pocketed coils, help keep air flowing so you don’t overheat. Hot sleepers will love it, and it has a soft, cozy feel like pricier luxury hybrids (but it doesn’t have that luxury price tag). Customers, especially couples, love how cool it stays, even with two people. Many recommend adding the Cloud Pillow Top for extra cushioning. It’s great for motion isolation and is still responsive enough so it’s not a struggle to switch sleep positions.

Highlights of the Aurora Luxe

Since we own our factory, you can get this luxury mattress at a fraction of what the other guys charge.
Three different firmness options: Soft, Medium, and Firm. We offer customized comfort designed for your sleep style.
Comfort layers are excellent at motion isolation, but are still responsive enough to move without feeling stuck.

What to Keep in Mind
