Best cooling pillows to buy
1. Qutool gel pillow
Memory foam that offers support for head and neck
Specifications

This is a shredded memory foam pillow that offers full support for your head and neck. It boasts not only hotel quality softness (although if you're after one of the best travel pillows, take a look at this guide) but also firm support that will reduce pressure points. You'll be relieved to fall into this pillow after a hard day! This pillow is also perfect for those of us who sleep on our sides, backs, or stomachs. This pillow also has a zippered inner and outer cover so that you can add or remove the foam filling if you wish. One side of the pillow is made up of gel particles, while the other is made of bamboo fibres. Overall, the pillow regulates temperatures so that heat doesn't build up.
If allergies keep you up at night as well, the Qutool pillow can help with that as well. It's made of 40% bamboo fibre rayon and 60% polyester. This also makes it eco friendly. This pillow has 437 ratings on Amazon and 4.5 out of 5 stars. One reviewer wrote, 'I was looking for a pillow that was soft but supportive, and this fits the bill. It's nice that you can customise the height of the pillow by taking out some of the stuffing.'
2. Kally Sleep Cooling Pillow
A brilliant affordable option

The Kally cooling pillow is another great affordable option to help combat those pesky night sweats. This pillow is layered with an outer 100% cotton cover. The next layer contains blown hollow fibre that absorbs heat and will regulate surface temperature. Then, at the centre is a cooling foam core designed to keep you at your best body temperature for an excellent night of sleep.
The foam layer is also flexible and will mould to your head and neck, making it one of the best pillows for neck pain. In addition, the Kally cooling pillow also has air vents along the sides. However, the Kally cooling pillow has medium firmness that can't be adjusted. It is also best for side and back sleepers. So, this pillow won't do for people who prefer to sleep on their stomachs. While the website only has 78 reviews, the pillow has been given 4.3 out of 5 stars.
3. Simba Hybrid Pillow
A space-inspired pillow that will regulate your temperature

If you want to go all out for a cooling pillow, this fancy pillow may be just the right one for you. The Simba is an astronaut and space-inspired pillow that will regulate your temperature throughout the night. It does this by absorbing, storing, and releasing heat as you need it. Not only does it have a hypoallergenic microfibre fill, but it also contains nanocubes that can be added or removed. This way, you can customise the height and firmness to fit your needs.
You will also receive a drawstring storage bag to keep your extra nanocubes in. The Simba hybrid pillow has a whopping 5,805 reviews on its site and 4.7 out of 5 stars. In addition to improving their sleep and keeping cool at night, a few reviewers also found the pillow helped relieve neck pain.
4. Elegear Cooling Pillowcases
A good option if you don't want to replace your pillow

If you are on a budget or perhaps just aren't ready to get rid of your current pillow, you could opt for a cooling pillowcase. The Elegear cool pillowcase has six different colours to choose from and a few size options as well. One side of the pillowcase is excellent for the cold winter months and will keep you warm with 100% cotton while the other side is perfect for the hot summer nights.
This cool side is made out of a Japanese cooling fibre, which is silky in texture and will help you fall asleep more quickly. Not only does this pillowcase allow for breathability and temperature regulation, but it is also beneficial for your hair and skin. The cooling material reduces friction for your hair, lessening tangles and breakage. It also doesn't absorb moisture. The Elegear cool pillowcase has 1,007 reviews on Amazon and 4.1 out of 5 stars. One reviewer wrote that she was sceptical at first, but the pillowcase definitely helped reduce her night sweats.
