If you’ve been waking up hot, tossing and turning, dealing with uncomfortable pressure around your hips and shoulders, or sleeping on a mattress that has started to sag, a quality gel or cooling hybrid mattress could be worth experiencing.

But first…

What Is a Gel Mattress?

A gel mattress typically uses gel-infused or therapeutic gel materials within its comfort layers.

Gel technology is designed to improve the performance of the mattress in several ways.

At Mattress Gallery Direct, we generally explain the benefits of therapeutic gel with three main functions:

1. Durability
2. Cooling
3. Pressure relief

When combined with a high-quality hybrid support system, therapeutic gel can create an excellent balance of comfort, support and temperature management.

Let’s take a closer look.

1. Gel Mattresses Can Provide Better Durability

One of the most frustrating things that can happen with a mattress is premature sagging or the development of uncomfortable body impressions.

You purchase a mattress.

It feels great initially.

Then months or years later, you begin noticing that the comfort isn’t what it used to be.

Why?

The materials inside your mattress matter.

Lower-quality comfort foams can lose some of their resilience as they are repeatedly compressed.

Remember, your mattress is supporting your body for approximately eight hours every night.

That is thousands of hours of use every year.

Quality therapeutic gel materials are designed to provide resilient cushioning and can help a mattress maintain its comfort and performance over time.

That makes material quality particularly important for customers who have experienced mattresses wearing out faster than expected in the past.

The lesson?

Don’t judge a mattress exclusively by how soft or comfortable it feels for the first five minutes.

You also want to know:

• What’s inside the mattress?
• What provides the comfort?
• What provides the support?
• What materials are designed for long-term performance?
• How is the mattress constructed?

At Mattress Gallery Direct, our bedding specialists can actually show you the differences between mattress materials instead of simply asking you to choose between “soft,” “medium,” and “firm.”

2. Gel Mattresses Can Help You Sleep Cooler

Are you a hot sleeper?

You’re not alone.

One of the most common concerns we hear from mattress shoppers throughout Middle Tennessee is:

“What mattress will help me sleep cooler?”

Your bedroom temperature, sheets, blankets, clothing and sleeping environment can all affect how warm you feel at night.

But the materials directly beneath your body matter too.

Some traditional foam materials can retain body heat.

Cooling gel mattress technology is designed to help manage and disperse heat around the sleeping surface, helping create a more comfortable sleeping environment.

But here’s something extremely important to understand:

Not All “Cooling Mattresses” Use the Same Technology

The term “cooling mattress” can describe many different technologies.

Depending on the mattress, you could find:

• Therapeutic gel
• Gel-infused memory foam
• Copper-infused foam
• Phase-change cooling materials
• Cooling mattress covers
• GlacioTex™ cooling fabrics
• Breathable natural latex
• Breathable natural fibers
• Individually wrapped hybrid coils
• Ventilated comfort materials
• Advanced temperature-management layers

Some premium mattresses may combine several of these technologies.

That’s why reading “cooling mattress” on an internet product description doesn’t necessarily tell you how that mattress will actually feel.

The best way to know?

Try it.

At Mattress Gallery Direct, you can compare cooling mattresses side by side and actually feel the differences before deciding which technology you prefer.

3. Gel Mattresses Can Provide Excellent Pressure Relief

Cooling gets most of the attention, but pressure relief may be just as important.

Think about what happens when you lie on your side.

Your shoulder and hip naturally press farther into the mattress than many other parts of your body.

If your mattress doesn’t cushion those areas properly, pressure can build.

That can cause you to shift positions throughout the night trying to get comfortable.

A quality therapeutic gel comfort layer can help cushion pressure-sensitive areas such as the:

• Shoulders
• Hips
• Lower back

By providing additional contouring and cushioning around these areas, a gel mattress can create a more comfortable sleep surface.

However, there’s an important distinction:

Pressure relief and support are not the same thing.

You want your mattress to cushion your body without sacrificing the support underneath.

And that’s exactly why we love combining advanced comfort materials with a quality hybrid mattress design.

What Is a Gel Hybrid Mattress?

A gel hybrid mattress combines comfort materials such as therapeutic gel or gel-infused foam with a support system typically made from individually wrapped coils.

This creates two important layers of performance.

On Top: Comfort & Pressure Relief

Advanced comfort materials can cushion the:

• Hips
• Shoulders
• Lower back

They can also contribute to cooling and the overall feel of the mattress.

Underneath: Support

Individually wrapped coils can provide a more responsive support system underneath the body.

Because the coils can respond more independently, quality hybrid mattresses can also provide excellent motion separation between sleeping partners.

Hybrid construction can create a fantastic combination of:

Cooling + Pressure Relief + Support + Airflow + Durability

That’s one reason hybrid mattresses have become such an important category for today’s mattress shopper.

Cooling Mattress Technologies at Mattress Gallery Direct

One advantage of shopping at Mattress Gallery Direct is being able to compare multiple brands and technologies under one roof.

We don’t believe everyone needs the same mattress.

Different people have different:

• Body shapes
• Body weights
• Sleeping positions
• Temperature preferences
• Comfort preferences
• Support requirements
• Budgets

That’s why selection matters.

We carry cooling mattress options from some of the biggest and most respected names in sleep. https://www.mattressgallerydirect.com/sleep-health-blog/sleep-tips/cooling-mattresses/

• Gel materials
• Copper-infused materials
• Advanced memory foam
• Latex
• Individually wrapped coils
• Zoned support

Having multiple brands available gives you the ability to compare instead of being forced into whatever single mattress an online brand wants to sell you.

Gel Mattress vs Memory Foam: What’s the Difference?

This is another common question.

Traditional memory foam is designed to conform closely to the sleeper.

Gel can be incorporated into foam layers to change certain performance characteristics, including temperature management and the overall feel.

But the quality of the material matters enormously.

Two mattresses can both say “gel memory foam” on the label and still feel completely different.

Things like:

• Foam density
• Gel formulation
• Layer thickness
• Support system
• Mattress cover
• Coil system
• Overall construction

can dramatically change how a mattress performs.

That’s why Mattress Gallery Direct encourages customers to focus on the entire mattress rather than one buzzword printed on the label.

Who Should Consider a Cooling Gel Mattress?

A quality gel mattress or gel hybrid may be worth considering if you:

Sleep Hot

Cooling and temperature-management technologies may help create a more comfortable sleeping surface.

Sleep on Your Side

Side sleepers frequently need additional cushioning around the shoulders and hips.

Want More Pressure Relief

Advanced comfort materials can provide cushioning around pressure-sensitive areas.

Have Had Mattresses Sag Prematurely

Better-quality comfort and support materials can be worth the investment for customers concerned about durability.

Like the Feel of Foam But Want More Support

A hybrid can combine contouring comfort layers with individually wrapped coil support.

Share Your Mattress

Individually wrapped coils and advanced comfort layers can help reduce the amount of motion transferred across the bed compared with many traditional connected-coil systems.

Why Buying a Cooling Mattress Online Can Be Difficult

Shopping online certainly looks convenient.

Click.

Order.

Wait for a box.

But choosing a mattress is different from ordering most products.

You spend thousands of hours lying on your mattress.

Yet many online shoppers make their decision without ever feeling the mattress.

The description says:

“Medium.”

But what does medium mean to YOU?

The website says:

“Cooling.”

But how does the material actually feel?

The reviews say:

“Comfortable.”

But were those reviewers your height, weight, sleeping position and comfort preference?

That’s why we believe there is a better way.

Try Before You Buy at Mattress Gallery Direct

At Mattress Gallery Direct, you don’t have to guess.

You can compare:

• Gel mattresses
• Cooling mattresses
• Memory foam mattresses
• Natural latex mattresses
• Hybrid mattresses
• Firm mattresses
• Medium mattresses
• Plush mattresses
• Adjustable base combinations

SIDE BY SIDE.

Our non-commission bedding specialists can help explain what you’re feeling and why one mattress may work differently from another.

We believe mattress shopping should be about finding the right fit for YOUR body rather than simply selling whatever mattress has the biggest advertisement behind it.
