Body temperature can really make or break a good night's sleep.
Now, Casper has launched a foam pillow with cooling technology, the first pillow of its kind within the company, and we got a chance to try it out.

In short: this is Casper cooling technology
Like the rest of the brand's cooling products, this foam pillow is designed with advanced cooling features to keep you cool and comfortable throughout the night, and the technology works on both sides of the pillow.
It features snow technology, Casper's signature AirScape breathability, along with three layers of foam to keep your head and neck aligned.
Another important note: adding all this technology comes at a steep price: the pillow is about 30% more expensive than a regular Casper foam pillow and costs:
USD$125 or
MX$ 3,150, with the possibility of paying monthly without interest.
Like all Casper products, the pillow arrived in minimal packaging, neatly rolled up in a small box.
I took it out of the box, removed the plastic cover and unrolled it.
It was quite flat, and as with the brand's mattresses, I let it breathe before using it.

That said, this is a foam pillow, so even after it settles in, don't expect anything big, though the foam layers provide ideal support for side sleepers.
But unlike the classic foam pillow (
USD$80 or
MX$1,652) offered by the brand, this pillow features four of the brand's Heat Delete strips running through the foam, continuously moving heat away from the head and neck for over 12 hours.
Sweaty wake ups are a thing of the past
It's not too hot right now, but I got cozy with my cooling pillow and settled in for the night.
The first thing I noticed was that most of the pillow felt so solid and cradled my neck very comfortably.
Like the Snow mattress, lying down with your head on the pillow feels like lounging on cool gel, even through my flannel pillowcase.
I rolled onto my back and side and flipped the pillow over;
no matter what I did, I felt supported and, more importantly, fresh.

I wear my hair shoulder length in a bun at night, and often a few pieces fall out and get a little sweaty.
With the cooling pillow, my hair stayed cool and dry and wasn't stuck to my neck at all.
For that alone, I would recommend this pillow to anyone with longer hair, or those who tend to wake up sweaty.
The bottom line: a cooling pillow for year-round comfort
With this latest addition to Casper's pillow offerings, summer seems like a breeze;
in fact, I'm looking forward to sleeping cool and comfortable all year round with this pillow (
USD$125 or
MX$3,150).
For those who suffer from heat at night, this snow technology foam pillow offers a respite from hot nights and should give you many restful and cool nights.
A cooling pillow can mean the difference between a good night's sleep or a miserable, sweaty, sleepless night.
If you have difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep due to feeling hot, this pillow is a worthwhile purchase.
