Best Cooling Blankets: $28.49 Elegear Tops Consumer Reports

Consumer Reports has identified the most comfortable cooling blankets on the market, with the Elegear Revolutionary Cooling Blanket emerging as the top pick. Priced at $28.49, this blanket uses a dual-sided design, featuring a cool-to-the-touch fabric on one side and Oeko-Tex certified cotton on the other.

The Elegear blanket was found to keep testers cooler than every other blanket in the test, while also holding up well under close inspection. It requires hand care instructions, including air-drying in the shade, which takes roughly a full day to complete.

In addition to the Elegear blanket, Consumer Reports also tested the Costco Life Comfort Cooling Throw, which costs $22.99 and uses a reversible design. This blanket ranked in the middle of the pack for cooling performance, with testers noting that the thicker material was more cooling than its weight suggested. However, a seam ripped slightly when pulled hard during testing.

Other cooling blankets tested by Consumer Reports included the Sleep Number True Temp Blanket, which costs $127.99 and can be folded thin enough to fit its included zippered case.

## What changed The Casper Snow mattress, priced at $2,595, was also a top pick for its minimal heat buildup. This 12.2-inch innerspring mattress ships compressed in a box and was found to have excellent durability, back support, and motion isolation.

## Why it matters Cooling blankets and mattresses are designed to provide relief from overheating during sleep. With many options available on the market, Consumer Reports' testing helps consumers make informed decisions about which products will best meet their needs. The testing process evaluates factors such as comfort, construction, and cooling claims, providing a comprehensive assessment of each product's performance.

The Elegear Revolutionary Cooling Blanket and Casper Snow mattress are just two examples of products that have been recognized for their exceptional performance. As consumers continue to prioritize comfort and cooling in their sleep products, these top picks are likely to be in high demand.
