Still searching for a pillow that stays cool all night long? Truth be told, they're hard to find. The best cooling pillows my colleagues and I have tested excel at regulating temperature to avoid overheating, and five of them are on sale. They include the Nectar Tri-Comfort Cooling Pillow, with a twin-pack down to $129 (was $258) at Nectar, designed with polyethylene-infused fabric to draw away excess heat.

While there are many so-called 'cooling' pillow available, as a bedding tester who has slept on some of the best pillows on the market, I've found that effective temperature regulation only happens when specialist active cooling elements are used.

For that reason, specialist cooling pillows are generally pricier than regular ones. However there are some decent discounts to take advantage of in this year's Memorial Day mattress sales. For the latest price cuts, we're tracking the best value Memorial Day mattress sales and deals of 2026 LIVE and chosen by our sleep experts.

5 Memorial Day cooling pillow deals I'd snap up

1. Nectar Tri-Comfort Cooling Pillow Two Pack
Save 50% ($129)
1. Nectar Tri-Comfort Cooling Pillow Two Pack: was $258 now $129 at Nectar Sleep

Nectar's shredded memory foam pillow with adjustable firmness is a great choice for most sleepers. The washable cover feels cool to the touch, and that's likely due to conductive polyethylene fibers that draw heat away from your body. Air flows better through the shredded foam too, as opposed to pillows that are one big slab of memory foam. For Memorial Day Nectar is offering a buy one get one free on the Tri-Comfort Cooling Pillow, saving you $129.

2. Tuft & Needle Original Foam Pillow
Save 30% ($24)
2. Tuft & Needle Original Foam Pillow: was $80 now $56 at Amazon

Memory foam pillows can sleep hot but the Tuft & Needle Original uses breathable open-cell foam infused with graphite and cooling gel to allow heat to escape. It comes in a single loft, and we think the firm-yet-plush design will suit side sleepers most. The CertiPUR-US certified foam should adapt to your head, neck and shoulders for an uninterrupted night's rest, just like the best pillows for side sleepers. Amazon's 30% off deal is better than the price on the brand's website and drops the price to $56 for a standard size cooling pillow. Plus, you get a 30-night sleep trial and a three-year warranty.

3. Tempur-Pedic Tempur Cloud 9 (2-pack)
Save 50% ($79)
3. Tempur-Pedic Tempur Cloud 9 (2-pack): was $158 now $79 at Tempur-Pedic

Finding a pillow for stomach sleeping is tricky, as the wrong one can tilt the head upwards, causing neck pain. Our stomach sleeping tester said the Tempur Cloud pillow provides a great balance of comfort and support for correct neck and spinal alignment. Tempur material on its own does sleep hot so add the cooling upgrade (for an extra $20, heat-wicking fibers are woven into the cover). This Memorial Day you can get two Tempur-Pedic Cloud pillows with cooling tech for $99 (was $198). Benefits include a 5-year warranty and free shipping.

4. Saatva Latex Pillow 2-Pack
Save 12% ($40)
4. Saatva Latex Pillow 2-Pack: was $330 now $290 at Saatva

Latex is a natural cooling material, making the Saatva Latex Pillow an excellent choice for people searching for organic bedding. It earned a 5 out of 5 score for temperature regulation during our review, with all members of our testing panel reporting that the Saatva Latex Pillow reduced sweating and overheating. It's rare to find this pillow in the Saatva mattress sale so $40 off when you buy two Saatva Latex Pillows together is not to be missed. 45-night trial, free shipping, and a one-year limited warranty are included.

5. Coop Sleep Goods  Cool+ Adjustable Pillow
Save 20% ($29.80)
5. Coop Sleep Goods Cool+ Adjustable Pillow: was $149 now $119.20 at Coop Sleep Goods

Coop Sleep Goods is the brand behind the top pillow we've tested, the Coop Original Adjustable review. I found it to be plush yet supportive, like the best pillows for back sleepers. But if you're a hot sleeper I recommend the Cool+ variant, which not only features the same adjustable design (add or remove foam and fiber blend to suit your sleeping comfort) but also heat-wicking, ventilated change gel memory foam, a cooling top cover, and Oomph Cool+ fill offering 50% more breathability than before. Grab it now at 20% off along with Coop's industry-best benefits: 100-night sleep trial, 5-year warranty and free shipping.
