The cooling mattress I'd buy just dropped to 40% off in a surprise 4th July sale
As an active runner, occasional hot sleeper and, of course, a mattress tester, if you asked me what mattress I'd pick without a budget in mind, my answer would undoubtedly be the Bear Elite Hybrid, which just dropped to 40% off all sizes at Bear with the code FOJ4TY. Packed with temperature balancing technology (we're talking Phase Change Material, copper foams, breathable coils and Celliant), my team of fellow bed testers and I rate the Bear Elite Hybrid as the best cooling mattress of the year. Regular mattress sales at Bear take 35% off the Elite Hybrid but this 40% off only appears around big-hitting sales like Black Friday and Memorial Day. Honestly, I didn't expect to see it in 4th July mattress sales and I doubt it will stick around long. So, go, go, go if you're in the market for a reliable cooling mattress this summer. Bear Elite Hybrid mattress (queen): was from $2,427 now from $1,456.20 at BearAfter 40% off, a queen Beat Elite Hybrid will set you back $1,637 with the Celliant upgrade or $1,457 without it (was $2,727 and $2,427 respectively). Like the very best hybrid mattresses you can get, there are three firmness levels to pick from with the Bear Elite making it suitable for most sleepers. While 40% is the best discount we see in Bear mattress sales, MSRPs appear to have risen lately, with a queen last month costing $2,305 at MSRP vs the $2,427 today. So the mattress isn't at its lowest ever price (though it's likely the lowest we'll see from now on). Still, 120 night sleep trial, limited lifetime warranty and free and fast shipping are included, making this an excellent review: ★★★★½ User score: ★★★★½ (based on 3,900+ reviews) First things first, to benefit from the Bear Elite's full cooling mechanism you must upgrade with the Celliant cover, which costs an extra $180 for a queen size after the current 40% discount. For this premium, you get a mattress that captures body heat and converts it into infrared energy that helps your muscles recover through the night while removing heat from the bed surface. This mattress also incorporates copper-infused foams which help to transfer heat away from the body to keep the surface of the bed cool. On top of this, being a hybrid mattress means there's plenty of airflow through the bed. The result? A mattress that's able to keep you call even during a Texan summer, according to our lead tester for the Bear Elite Hybrid mattress review. Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro (queen): was $1,332 now £932.40 at Brooklyn Bedding While a Bear Elite would be my ideal mattress, I'm currently sleeping on the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid due to its smaller budget. Today's Brooklyn Bedding mattress sale takes 30% off, bringing the queen size to $932.40 (was $1,332). Yet its quality, feel and features punch above this price point, as I explain in my Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro mattress review. And its perks (a limited lifetime warranty, 120 night sleep trial and free shipping) match Bear's despite its lower price. Our review: ★★★★ User score: ★★★★½ (based on 500+ reviews)

Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid vs Bear Elite Hybrid: Which cooling mattress should you buy?
Type: HybridInternal layers: 7Firmness: Medium-firm (7)Height: 14"Sizes: 6Sleep trial: 120 nightsWarranty: LifetimeSale price: from $699 at Brooklyn Bedding Type: HybridInternal layers: 6Firmness: Soft (2-4), Medium (6), Firm (7-8)Height: 14"Sizes: 7Sleep trial: 120 nightsWarranty: LifetimeSale price: from $1,299 at Bear The Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid and the Bear Elite Hybrid are two top-performing cooling hybrid mattresses offering strong temperature regulation and exceptional comfort. However, a queen size the CopperFlex is up to $774 cheaper than the Bear Elite, depending on current discounts. After testing both of these mattresses, our reviewers have awarded them spots in our best cooling mattress of the year guide. Impressively, the Bear Elite takes the top spot as our #1 cooling mattress of the year overall, while the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid comes in at #4 as the best cooling bed under $1,000. You'll also find the Bear Elite sitting pretty as the top cooling option in our guide to the best mattress for all sleepers and budgets. Both mattresses are persistently discounted in monthly mattress sales by at least 25%. However, the CopperFlex is significantly cheaper than the Bear Elite. So, how do the two compare in terms of design, comfort and performance, and is the Bear Elite Hybrid worth the price hike? That's what we'll dig into here. There's currently 35% off in Bear mattress sales, cutting an Elite Hybrid to $1,578 (was $2,427) in a queen size. While that is an excellent saving, it is a deal we tend to see from month to month. During major mattress sales, such as Black Friday and Memorial Day, that discount can rise to 40% off. It's also worth noting that you'll need to splash an extra $195 for the Celliant cover. Similarly, thanks to regular Brooklyn Bedding mattress sales, you'll rarely have to pay full price for the CopperFlex Pro mattress. Discounts tend to range between 20% and 30% off. Right now the discount sits in the middle at 25%, reducing a queen size to $999 from $1,332. Brooklyn Bedding and Bear are on a par when it comes to benefits. They both include free shipping, a 120-night sleep trial and limited lifetime warranty with all mattress purchases, which really add value to the price you pay. Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress: from $932 $699 at Brooklyn BeddingThe Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid uses breathable coils and copper-infused foam for advanced cooling and motion isolation. It's up to $399.75 off this month, with a queen reduced to $999 (was $1,332). You'll also get free shipping, a 120-night sleep trial and lifetime warranty. Bear Elite Hybrid mattress: from $1,998 $1,299 at BearYou're guaranteed cool sleep on the Bear Elite Hybrid mattress, which is discounted by 35% now. This cuts a queen to $1,578 (was $2,427) as standard or $1,773 (was $2,727) with the Celliant cover upgrade. Not the lowest price we've seen, but great value nonetheless. Both 14" tall with a navy base and white top, these hybrid mattresses share a similar aesthetic. Under the covers, however, these mattresses differ slightly. From bottom to top, the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is built with 7" high-density support foam, zoned coils (up to 760 of them, depending on the size you pick), motion-isolating transition foam, comfort foam, copper foam, quilt foam (yes, that's a lot of different kinds of memory foam) and is topped with a GlacioTex cooling cover. On the other hand, the Bear Elite Hybrid mattress is an innerspring hybrid mattress with Phase Change Materials, copper foam, dynamic transition foam, high-density support foam and individually encased, zoned coils. Each zone targets a specific pressure point and coils have a higher gauge in the center to provide additional lumbar support. If you're a particularly hot sleeper, we recommend upgrading your Bear mattress with the Celliant cover (our tester, who tested the mattress during a sweltering Texan summer, was glad she did.) As two of the best hybrid mattresses you can buy, the CopperFlex and Bear Elite Hybrid both use a combination of responsive coils and cushioning foams to provide a balance of lumbar support and pressure relief, no matter your sleep style. The CopperFlex Pro Hybrid comes in one firmness option — a medium-firm 7 out of 10 on the mattress firmness scale. It is a pillow top mattress, though, meaning you sink into slightly when you lie on it as the foam molds to your body. Our average-weight tester, Eve, found it comfortable in all sleeping positions and didn't have trouble switching between side, stomach and back sleeping during the night. Meanwhile, you can choose the firmness level of the Bear Elite Hybrid, which comes in soft, medium or firm, with Bear rating the different firmness levels as 5, 6 and 7 out of 10, respectively. Our tester, Alex, slept on the medium-firm Bear Elite Hybrid and found it most comfortable when back and stomach sleeping, as her spine remained aligned and she felt considerable pressure relief in her hips. However, she didn't sink as much as she would have liked when lying on her side. Ultimately, the plush pillow top surface makes the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid an ideal mattress for side sleepers and average weight combination sleepers. Lightweight side sleepers would likely enjoy the extra cushioning offered by the soft model of the Bear Elite Hybrid. But heavier side sleepers and strict stomach and back sleepers would benefit from the firmer model, offering a more responsive sleep surface. Besides breathable coil layers, these mattresses use innovative thermoregulating materials to deliver strong temperature regulation. Copper-infused foam is the common ingredient between these two beds. Copper ribbons are used in mattresses due to their high thermal conductivity. This means they are able to dissipate heat from the mattress surface, helping your body stay cool when lying on it. One of the first thing our tester noticed about the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid was how cool to the touch GlacioTex cover is. This cover is laced with high conductivity fibers that absorb body heat, pulling it away from your body while you sleep. Similarly, the cover of the Bear Elite Hybrid is infused with PCM that absorbs heat as it transfers from a solid to a liquid state, wicking heat away from the body. But it's the Celliant cover upgrade where cooling gets serious. This cover has clever synthetic fibers that convert body heat into infrared energy, which is then reflected back into the body to aid thermoregulation and restorative sleep. Despite testing the Bear Elite Hybrid during a warm July in Texas, our tester remain at a comfortable temperature for sleeping through the night. Overall, these are both top tier cooling mattresses for anyone who sleeps hot. Deciding between them will depend on your sleep style and budget. ✅ You're a side sleeper: The cushioning pillow top surface of the CopperFlex best accommodates side sleepers who need ample pressure relief and cloud-like comfort. ✅ You have a smaller budget: The CopperFlex is a cheaper alternative to the Bear Elite (bearing in mind you must pay extra for maximum cooling effect with the latter mattress), yet its materials and build feel luxurious. ✅ You like to sink into bed: The pillow top on the CopperFlex means you slightly sink into the mattress when you lie on it, providing a cushioning sleep surface. ✅ You want customizable firmness options: There are different firmness options with the Bear Elite, whereas you can only get the Copperflex in medium-firm. ✅ You have an active lifestyle: Celliant technology in the Bear mattress is geared towards muscle recovery. Reflecting infrared energy towards the body, it promotes muscle repair overnight. ✅ You experience back pain: The zoned coil system in the Bear Elite offers more targeted lumbar support to ease pain in back muscles.
