Some memory foam mattresses have a gel memory foam blend that keeps you much cooler than the older just memory foam mattresses. I have a Simmons gel/foam mattress and I cannot say enough good things about it.

I got a mattress topper of mem foam, about 2-3 inches thick, goes above your regular mattress. Cost about $100 for Cal King size at Costco. It's fantabulous. Get one if you don't have lots of cash. Had mine now for about 5-6 years.

Yeah but my spring mattress is so lumpy and out of whack that I don't think a topper will help me, I need to replace the whole mattress

We have a sprung mattress with a 2 inch memory foam layer built in on top, it was the best compromise we could find cost/comfort.

Yes. Bought one in June or July of 2010 - a knockoff from Overstock.com.

Here's a lengthy review I wrote about the one we got, which we're still using and enjoying immensely.

I had one for about a week before I couldn't stand it anymore. hurt my back, was hot as hell. couldn't jump on that mother f***er.

got an ikea bed and have been happy ever since. Bought a tv with the different between the two lol

it was a cheap one too, not tempurpedic.

Love my Tempurpedic and have had it forever, like 5-10 years or so. The heat thing is an issue but a topper clears that right up and adds a little fluff between you and the foam. Probably not as big an issue with a newer mattress but, like I said, I have had mine forever.

I like how you dedicated several paragraphs just to sex on the mattress. Which one did you buy, do you remember the name?

We've had our tempurpedic for about 5 years now. It's not bad, and we have a cover for it that makes it a one-way heat sink, so we don't get hot at all, but I don't think I'd buy another one. We haven't noticed any improvement in our sleep (in fact it's slightly worse) and it just...isn't quite as comfortable for us as a normal mattress. Not sure how else to explain it.
