I've only had one night on the pillow but I am burning up. It feels as if it's been setting on a heater. Suggestions? Use very cold water?

We have two of these pillows in use at this time. We have not encountered the difficulty that you describe. Unless you plan to change the water every night, the very cold water is not a very convenient solution. My daughter did notice the pillow did heat up when exposed to the heating vent, but she actually enjoyed that experience. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck.

We haven't actually used this yet. I bought it to replace one (not same brand) that I disposed of. The other one I had "looked" just like this. I blew it up after I rec'd it and it seemed pretty firm. My husband and I slept on the other one I had (combined weight 345 or so) & slept very comfortably. I know this probably wasn't much help & maybe you can get better answers from someone else. I do love the pump, just plug it in & airs up pretty quickly & same with deflating. I actually got it back in the bag it came in. Good luck!!

I have not found this mattress to be hot. That was always a worry I had too. I already had a topper with the "cooling" technology and I have put that on top of this mattress. I am also in the age group where I tend to pull the sheet off and back on a few times in the night even with my topper. I got something called a Chillow a few years ago and if I feel a warm trend starting I put my arm or leg on it and it truly does cool you down.

I have only added water on the initial setup. With this new one, the pillow part was not as thick as the first one I purchased about 4 years ago, so I had to add more water in the beginning. It has never leaked.

Short answer: your mileage may vary on this. I tend to like a colder temperature that's far colder than most other people. That said, I still felt that the pillow was fine because there's a hole cut in the front that exposed my lower face to air. It just didn't feel comfortably cool enough for me, but not by much.

I have used it only once and I had the same problem. I think you have to lock the temperature and I guess I did not do it. Try locking the temperature

Fill it with cold water and let it set until the foam rubber thing inside soaks up the water, Then roll it up until you get the water out. Better yet, send it back and hope you get a refund. It doesn't work and it just makes you sweat more at night.

I had the same problem when i first tried to inflate the pillow. Make sure the plug is dry before you try to close it + try to push it completely inside the pillow. Somehow it stopped popping up after a few attempts and now works fine.

I have actually washed and dried the whole pillow with good results. Use gentle Cybele, cold water and woolite. Tumble dry on warm.

Is the pillow cold? Was it sitting outside on your porch in the middle of winter? Memory foam is notorious for getting rock solid when exposed to cold temperatures. Wait for it to warm up and test again. It should be softer. If this is not the case, then you might have a faulty product.Thank you for taking the time to read my answer; I hope it was helpful to you!

The more water you put in the higher and firmer the pillow gets. I personally like it softer and flatter so I don't put as much water in. You just have to adjust to your comfort.

Try lowering the Temperature setting. I have mine set near center position which is plenty hot unless you need to scald.

Have not washed mine yet so no help here. If I did wash it I would use cold or warm water not hot.

It was too hot for me. It's not noticeable when you first lay down, but by the morning I started waking up repeatedly from the warmth. I tried to move around but any spot I moved too got too warm after 10 mins.

HI!..I felt it did sleep a bit hot, so I got a good mattress cover and put it over the topper. I had major back surgery recently and its been wonderful to lay on. I have new hips too and its helped alot with comfort there too. I hope this helps you too! :)

I think all memory foam holds your body heat to some extent. I sewed some pillow cases for mine so with the extra layer between me and the pillow I haven't noticed it being hot. Although it has been fairly cold here yet, so I guess we'll find out soon enough!

So far I have only used it twice. The first time the night was cool and it was great. The 2nd night it was just a big warmer and it was too hot. I had to take it off the bed. I did use it as a full body pillow which was my intended use and I loved it both times even though it did get too warm. I am really looking forward to it this winter though especially since I am usually cold on the midwest cold winter nights!
