Best Cooling Sheets for Hot Sleepers: Our Expert-Tested Picks

The Luxome Luxury Sheet Set offers a luxurious feel at an affordable price-point. Made from 100% bamboo-derived viscose, the sheets have a cool and silky-smooth hand feel, which is great if you value extra soft bedding.

How It Performed

Since bamboo-derived fabrics are moisture-wicking, these sheets are a strong choice if you live in a humid climate. The silky-soft sateen weave creates a lustrous look and a luxuriously soft feel that our testers with sensitive skin appreciated. We could easily move across the sheets without rubbing and irritation. The fitted sheet also has a larger-than-average pocket depth of 17 inches that could fit most mattresses in our testing lab, including those with thick pillow-tops.

What It’s Made of

Each item in the set is made from breathable viscose derived from bamboo in a smooth sateen weave. Seven sizes are available. All sets come with one flat sheet. The full, queen, king, and California king options include two pillowcases and one fitted sheet, and the split king features two fitted sheets. Twin and twin XL sets come with one pillowcase. The 10-color range features a variety of options, from neutrals to bold blues and greens. All items in the set are washable in your household machines. Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, and line dry or tumble dry on low.

Luxome offers free shipping to the contiguous U.S. and a 30-day return trial. You can return a Luxury Sheet Set in “like new” condition for a full refund during this period.

If you value crispness over clinginess with your bedding, then you’re an excellent candidate for percale-woven cotton sheets. The Silk & Snow Percale Sheets deliver everything we love about this weave, and the set is budget-friendly to boot.

How It Performed

Our team enjoyed the balanced feel of these sheets — crisper than cotton sateen but not as coarse as linen. The set should serve you well during hotter or more humid times of the year, when drapey sheets are less inviting. We’ve also found that cotton percale sheets hold up well over time with proper care and storage, and are less likely to pill than those made of sateen-woven cotton.

One potential drawback is the pocket depth. Many mattresses are covered in the range of 15 inches or less, but some luxury pillow-tops and other high-profile models need deeper pockets for a secure fit. We recommend measuring your mattress profile before buying this set.

What It’s Made of

The sheets and pillowcases in this collection are composed of 100% cotton. Percale is a tighter weave than sateen, so the fabric feels crisper and more breathable, and won’t drape as closely to the body. The set is available in six sizes that correspond with standard mattress dimensions. You can also choose from seven colors, each produced using organic dyes. All items are fully machine-washable for quick, easy care.

In addition to affordable pricing for the Sateen Sheets, Silk & Snow offers free ground shipping to customers in the contiguous U.S. and provincial Canada. You’ll receive a 100-night trial period with your purchase, and an additional year of warranty coverage if you decide to keep the set.

Of all the cooling sheets we’ve tested, the Hush Iced Cooling Sheet Set stands out for its moisture-wicking properties. The breathable fabric is ideal for sleepers who not only run hot but also sweat a lot throughout the night.

The bamboo-derived sheets have a noticeably cool feel that impressed the hot sleepers on our team. The material naturally draws moisture from your body to help keep you dry, especially if you live in a humid climate.

The sheets are machine-washable on a cool, gentle cycle, and you can tumble dry them on low heat.

What It’s Made of

The Hush Iced Cooling Sheet Set is composed of 100% viscose derived from bamboo, a fabric that resists wrinkles and pilling. The sateen weave gives the sheets a drapey texture and appearance. The set is available in twin, twin XL, full, queen, and king sizes, and you can choose from eight color options. Each set includes one fitted sheet, one flat sheet, and two pillowcases.

The sheets are a good choice for people who sleep hot or live in warmer climates, as the fabric is lightweight and breathable. They’re also ideal for sleepers who enjoy sheets that drape closely to the body.

Twin and full sizes come with one pillowcase, while the larger sizes include two. The fitted sheet has a 16-inch pocket depth and can accommodate taller beds.

Each item can be machine washed using cold water and a gentle cycle. Quince advises against using bleach and fabric softener. After tumble drying on low, the sheets should be promptly removed in order to prevent wrinkling. If you prefer a crisp look to your sheets, the sheets can be ironed on a low setting.

Quince offers free shipping within the U.S. The sheet set includes a 365-day return policy, which is longer than average for bedding. Customers are eligible for a full refund at any point during this period, even if the sheets have been used or washed.

The Cozy Earth Bamboo Sheet Set is an excellent pick if you want a luxurious option. Though these sheets have the price-point, Cozy Earth uses high-quality materials that may be worth the cost if you want a premium product.

How It Performed

Our hot sleepers found this set excels at temperature regulation. Viscose from bamboo effectively draws heat away from your body and helps reduce humidity by wicking away moisture, making it a great choice if you tend to sweat at night or live in a humid climate.

The Brooklinen Luxe Core Sheet Set has a 480 thread count and sateen weave, giving the sheets the silky quality you’d expect from luxury sheets. The soft material is ideal for sleepers who enjoy bedding with a buttery smooth feel.

How It Performed

We test our sheet sets on the same mattress for consistency, and we found the breathable and moisture-wicking fabric of these sheets kept our testers cool and dry. One thing our testers really appreciated was the “long” and “short” labels on the fitted sheet’s sides, which made it easier to place correctly on the first try. The fitted sheet has a pocket depth of 16 inches, so it should accommodate most beds on the market.

What It’s Made of

The set is constructed from long-staple cotton in a smooth sateen weave. Available sizes include twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, and California king.
