2025’s Top Bed Sheets for Hot Sleepers – A Buyer’s Guide

Do The Type of Bed Sheets You Sleep On Really Make A Difference In Temperature?

Choosing the right bedding & getting a good night's sleep relies on three key points: Comfort, Temperature control & Value for money.

Most people are likely sleeping in cotton, flannel, or polyester bed sheets which are a popular choice because of the price or lack of knowledge. We investigate some of the top bedding companies on the market in 2025 and find out how they're changing the sleep industry!

Bamboo bed sheets are a relatively new product that has started gaining popularity this year because of their superior benefits. The majority of Bamboo bed sheets come with hefty price tags because of their quality, however, we discovered the company 'Cosy House Collection' that have been creating waves on social media and in the news with their high-quality Bamboo bedding that comes with a ridiculously low price tag!

Doctors say that we get the deepest, healthiest sleep when our bodies are cool, comfortable, and able to breathe. There's nothing worse than a set of sheets that hangs on to moisture and make you hot. (Ahem: Night-sweats anyone?)

Finally – you’ll want some sheets which are Cool, Breathable & Temperature Regulating. We've found that cotton isn’t very good at being either of these things and tends to hold pollen, allergens and bacteria until it’s washed! Unless your bedding is being washed daily, you’re likely suffering (from allergens) while you sleep and you just don’t know it.

It can be difficult to know which are the best bed sheets for night sweats. That's why Great Life Tips has compiled months of research about this emerging category. We’ll show you what to look for and what to avoid when picking your perfect set of sheets, and how it can help transform your sleep and stay cool all night.

Benefits of extra sleep & rest:

Helps you maintain weight

  • Better energy control
  • Maintain correct hormone levels

Cognitive Health

  • Boosts Memory
  • Enhances Processing Speed

Cardiovascular Health

  • Aids Cardiovascular Function
  • Helps Maintain Normal Blood Flow

Stronger immune system

  • Bolsters Immune System
  • Helps to fight off illness &  infection

What You Need In The Perfect Bedding

Taking all of the healthful attributes listed above into consideration, we've boiled down a list of four key characteristics you should always look for in a great bed sheet set. Try to seek out all of these qualities:

Temperature Regulation

The problem with most bed sheet sets on the market is they are not very versatile in regards to temperature regulation & temperature changes that come with the seasons. Causing you to constantly wake up hot and sweaty and reducing your overall sleep quality

Flannel sheets can work great for winter months, but they'll leave you overheated and sweaty the rest of the year.

The top cotton bed sheets can be breathable and cooling in the summer months,  but won't help to regulate temperatures the rest of the year when you need them to.

Bamboo sheets are naturally temperature-regulating and wick away moisture allowing you to stay cool and dry year-round.

Softness & Comfort

The best bamboo sheets are silky soft,  even softer than Egyptian cotton while offering a heap of additional features. Bamboo bed sheets are more effective at moisture wicking, and keeping you cool and dry through out the night.

Hypoallergenic

Allergens such as dust mites and mold can thrive when paired with sheets that allow them to thrive causing endless nights of tossing and turning from symptoms like itchy throat, runny nose, and watery eyes. Luckily, bamboo bed sheets are hypoallergenic, breathable, and antimicrobial. It is the combination of these features, working together, that raises their individual benefits exponentially.

Easy Care & Durable

Traditional fabrics are a breeding ground for bacteria causing bad odors, stains, and even acne. The combined benefits of bamboo allow your sheets to stay fresher, for longer (we found about 2x as long compared to traditional cotton sheets) When the time does come to finally clean them, they are machine washable and don't take as long to dry!

What To Avoid when buying Bed Sheets

A High Thread Count Isn't Always Better

The higher the thread count, the better the sheets, right? Actually, no (We were shocked to discover this too!) Thread count is an incredibly out-dated method for measuring cotton sheets. It's actually considered to be an outdated form of measurement for gauging bedding quality, most people now measure sheets by GSM (Grams per square meter).

Higher thread count sheets also means a tighter weave, which reduces air flow causing them to lose any benefit of cooling and breathing.

Chemicals

Many sheets are finished with chemicals that are harmful to your skin & body. Companies process their sheets with chemical finishes to stop shrinking, wrinkling, and pilling in the wash.  It's incredibly important to look for OEKO-TEX or Certi-PUR certifications when buying sheets.

Consumers often think they're safe with Cotton sheets because they're grown but cotton is often sprayed with chemicals & pesticides that carry over into the final product. This is a recipe for disaster when your sleeping in them for 7-8 hours a day.

The best way to ensure your bedsheets are free of chemicals and/or harmful substances is to buy from one of the reputable brands carrying OEKO-TEX or Certi-PUR Certifications. OEKO-TEX certifies that the product has been tested for harmful substances and that they are, therefore, harmless for human health and safe to use.

The Bottom Line

California Design Den was our favorite cotton set we reviewed. However, we were definitely missing some of the features we had grown to love with the Cosy House Bamboo Sheets (Temperature Regulation).

California Design Den does have a variety of sizes to choose from, however, if you have a mattress with deeper pockets you may find yourself fighting the sheet in the corners to stay on.

Their return policy is also only 30-Days, and they do not feature any live customer support options

The Bottom Line

The Resort Bamboo Sheets by Cariloha is silky soft and features a 100-Night trial.

Caution: A Queen size bamboo sheet set from Cariloha retails for around $250, and while they are soft it is hard to say they are 5x better than the Cosy House or California Design Den Sheets.

Some reviewers also state they have had issues with pilling, threads coming loose and holes in the fabric after a short time of use, however, we have not yet been able to replicate these results ourselves.

Cariloha's Resort Bamboo Sheets are a great option for those not worried about a budget.

CONS

The Bottom Line

Purple's Bamboo Sheets are pretty soft due to the added spandex, however, they don't seem to cool as well as the other bamboo sheets we've tested.

Purple has created a great set of sheets, we just wish there were more than 4 colors offered, the other sets all offer much better color & pattern options.

While these aren't our top pick for sheets, it's nice they have a live customer support chat readily available. Though this hardly makes up for the fact there is no trial period or return policy. At $99 for a Queen Size bed sheet set, it's a better value than Cariloha, but you're out of luck if you decide you don't like them.

  • Not As Eco-Friendly As Bamboo
The Bottom Line

Brooklinen's 480-Thread-Count 7-Piece Luxe Bed Sheet Set is very smooth and is a great pick if you're leaning towards cotton sheets.

However, As of writing the Queen Sheet Set is currently $270. Offering top-notch comfort & quality, this may only appeal to those who are not so budget-minded.

We were however happy it's OEKO-TEX certified and offers a Lifetime Warranty, earning it a spot on this list, Though we'd still recommend A Bamboo set over it for the thermal regulating features alone.
