This bed is hot and now I'm stuck with it.  I bought a Tempurpedic last year and I have been struggling with the reality of getting so hot in my bed that I wake up.

I did some research and experimented a bit to try to relieve. First I took off my mattress cover (you need to protect these mattresses as they cannot get wet, and no I don't pee the bed) That did not help. I tried getting an ikea mattress pad to create some space between me and the mattress but I still cook every night. I even wrote an email to Temperpedic and their reply offered no solution.

You may be thinking that a fan might work or I should try lighter blankets. I tried and it only helps a little. The heat that is bothersome is the heat that is trapped between you and the mattress. Unless you learn how to levitate, you're S.O.L.

So, if you can handle the heat then the bed is very comfortable in every other way. But, if you get hot in bed, be warned that the big bucks you'll spend on a Temperpedic mattress will be blown.
