A financially friendlier option, the Comfort Spaces Coolmax sheets are a great option "for hot sleepers in need of sheets to remain cool at night," Casey says.
They're made of polyester and a cooling microfiber, which pulls away moisture from the body and keeps you cool and dry throughout the night.
Each twin set comes with one flat sheet, one fitted sheet and one pillowcase.

Looking for a budget-friendly cooling pillow? Casey recommends this Weekender pillow because it's made with a temperature-regulating and ventilating gel, which prevents you from overheating.
It's also comfortable, thanks to the memory foam, and offers a firmer feel compared to traditional down or down-alternative pillows. It comes with a removable cover, too, making for an easy clean.

While Casper is best known for its mattresses and sheets, its pillows — including the brand's foam pillow — deserve praise too.
Designed with the brand's signature technology, the pillow pushes heat away from your head and neck to help you stay cool while you snooze. The "outer snow layer" tacks on 12 hours of cooler sleep and prevents you from "waking up due to sleeping hot," Casey says.
Beyond the cooling effect, this pillow is extremely comfortable, keeping your neck and head properly aligned.
Even better? You can try the pillow for a 30-night risk-free trial. If you don't love it, Casper will take it back and offer a full refund.

What to Look for in a Product for Hot Sleepers
1. Fits Your Sleeping Needs
Before picking a product, Casey recommends identifying your sleep health needs and taking inventory.
For example, if your blanket is too bulky and isn't doing a great job regulating your temperature, you might want to try a cooling blanket or sheets. If bedding isn't the issue, you can look for non-bedding cooling products, such as fans.
2. Cooling Technology
The best products for sweaty sleepers are ones that have cooling technology.
For example, WEEKENDER's Memory Foam Pillow was engineered with a ventilating gel, which helps to regulate your body temperature and keep the sweat away. Casper's Foam Pillow has a cooling technology that keeps sleepers cool for an additional 12 hours.
Look for products that are specifically made to keep you cool while you snooze.
3. Price
There are affordable and pricier cooling products for hot sleepers, with most products ranging between $20 and $200. Casey recommends choosing a product that meets both your sleep hygiene needs and budget.
