I’m a hot sleeper – these cooling sheets are already in my Amazon shopping cart

When I say I'm a hot sleeper, I mean it. I used to swelter for hours before I slept, and I woke up in a sweat most mornings. Eventually, I got sick of sizzling, and I ordered some of the best cooling sheets on Amazon to arrive as soon as possible.

My cotton percale sheets have changed the game. Naturally thermoregulating and moisture-wicking, the sheets stay cool to the touch all night long. Out of all the bed sheet types, natural fibers, such as cotton, bamboo, and eucalyptus are best for hot sleepers. Hot sleepers should use these sheets all year round, while the rest of us could do with a cooling sheet set for summer.  

As H&G's resident sleep writer, I've tested countless sets of the world's best bed sheets. I know what I'm looking for in the best cooling sheets: breathable materials, expert craftsmanship, and a reasonable price point. That's why I'm happy to see so many of the best cooling sheets listed for less as part of the Amazon Big Spring Sale. 

Best Amazon cooling sheets 

To save you time and money, I've rounded up six of my favorite cooling sheet sets on Amazon. That's enough to give you the pick of the litter without overwhelming you with options. Several of these sheet sets are tested by one of our sleep experts and assessed for thermoregulation, comfort, and quality of construction. Where we haven't been able to get our hands on a sheet set, we've scoured the specifications and read countless customer reviews to make sure we're recommending quality.

Cooling sheets FAQs

What are the best type of sheets to keep you cool?

The best cooling bed sheets are made from bamboo, eucalyptus, or cotton percale. Naturally thermoregulating and moisture-wicking, these sheets can dissipate heat and absorb sweat to keep you cool and comfortable, all night long. Bamboo and eucalyptus are antimicrobial, too, built to bust the bacteria that breeds in hot, damp environments, such as bedrooms. 

If you tend to sleep cool in the winter and warm in the summer, then you might not want to sleep under cooling sheets all year round. You could always pick up some of the best linen sheets as a spare set for summer. Linen is light and breezy, capable of keeping you cool in hot weather and heat waves. 

Do cooling sheets actually work?

Good ones do. As a hot sleeper, I've had the most luck with the Sijo AiryWeight Eucalyptus Sheet Set. Each flat sheet, fitted sheet, and pillowcase feels cool to the touch and nice and thin between your fingers. It's the ideal solution for hot sleepers who still like to sleep with a layer. 

I've sampled several sheet sets that claim to be cooling, but actually incorporate synthetic materials that trap heat and retain moisture. It's always worth reading the customer reviews on Amazon to assess the thermoregulation of a sheet set before you buy.
