My current bed uses a thin layer of memory foam on top of a high quality mattress (as part of the construction of the mattress). It is the most comfortable thing for my bad back that I've ever tried, well happy with it. However, I agree that it is very warm stuff. A thin layer isn't so bad though. I tried a thick memory foam mattress before, and also agree that with a thick layer, it's hard to adjust your position. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

I found out that the way I turn around in bed - by arching my back like a banana, balanced on the back of my head and my heels, then swinging my shoulders around without them touching the mattress, so that I'm chest down on the other side - takes far more effort on a memory foam mattress, and I ended up with neck pain for the first few months, before my sleeping brain learned different ways of turning.
The mattress feels a bit like how you'd imagine quicksand or similar. It absorbs movement. If you want to be "active" on your bed, it'll fight you all the way.
OTOH, if you can sleep on your back without trying to inhale your tongue or waking yourself up from snoring, it's probably the most comfortable thing. I don't mind the heat either, but I'm very insensitive to heat compared to most people I work with (it's cold I don't like - I hate a/c in the office).
Overall, it was a neutral to net negative purchase for me. ____________________ Bikes: S1000R, SH350; Exes: Vity 125, PS125, YBR125, ER6f, VFR800, Brutale 920, CB600F, SH300x4

If you're a sweater, then avoid like the plague. The one on my single bed at my my mums when I still lived there
went mouldy because it couldn't dry out enough between each of my teenage hormonal night sweats, and before
long I'd almost burned my way through it. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

We tried a lot of beds in our recent replacement search and we were prepared to pay big bucks for a Tempur set up.
The last port of call, Carpetright, revealed the perfect solution for both of us.

I had my heart set on a decent memory foam bed but im glad we went with this as neither of us has had a bad night's sleep since its arrival. |

For 10+ years I had a tempur one at my parents house.. was silly expensive (like £1500 I'm told) but it was damn good. |
We have two 90x200cm Tempur mattresses side by side on a superking frame. Cost was about £2700. They are warm, make no mistake. Our bedroom is on the second floor of our townhouse, which means in warm weather it's hot - there's a substantial climate difference between each floor. My GF finds the mattress a bit too hot right now, but I don't mind it. OTOH my GF finds her mattress very comfortable, whereas I'd prefer something softer yet springier.
I may yet swap out my mattress for something else, if I can find a decent choice with the same height. ____________________ Bikes: S1000R, SH350; Exes: Vity 125, PS125, YBR125, ER6f, VFR800, Brutale 920, CB600F, SH300x4
