Buy Sealy
The Cocoon by Sealy Chill Memory Foam mattress is a budget-friendly option with impressive cooling technology, making it ideal for hot sleepers. Priced around $699 for a queen size, it includes free bedding and old mattress removal. The mattress features a cover infused with Phase Change Material (PCM) for effective heat dissipation. It has a three-layer design: breathable memory foam, responsive comfort foam, and robust support foam. It provides good pressure relief and motion isolation but lacks deep body contouring. Rated at 6.5 out of 10 in firmness, it may not suit heavier side sleepers. Edge support is weak, and durability is average, with potential for indentations over time. It comes with a 100-night trial and a 10-year warranty. Overall, it is recommended for those seeking a cooling mattress at an affordable price.
