The latest Sleep Number smart bed is designed to keep you cool at night. The ClimateCool smart bed, priced from $5,499, is the latest product from the company famous for adjusting mattress hardness. In a press release, the company claims that the new mattress can maintain optimal body temperature through “scientifically backed” cooling programs that may be of particular interest to people struggling with menopausal symptoms.
This is the second Sleep Number smart bed that offers individual temperature control on both sides of the bed. Climate360, launched in 2020, similarly actively draws heat away from your body to help you stay cool, but unlike ClimateCool it can also warm you up if you feel too cool at night.
But while the 360 starts at $10,000 for a Queen size, the new ClimateCool starts at $5,499. This price includes the base; an adjustable one can be purchased for $1,500 more. Competitors like Eight Sleep, a cooling and heating mattress cover with an adjustable base, start at $2,649, but you’ll have to buy your own mattress.
Sleep Number says ClimateCool uses the same cooling technology as Climate360, and both Climate Series mattresses can take advantage of the active cooling feature enabled by new SmartTemp cooling programs. They were developed based on research conducted at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine, and combined with layers of ceramic gel and a breathable sleeping surface in the mattress, they keep you cool and adaptive to your body temperature throughout the night.

Sleep Number said it had conducted research that showed changes in body temperature during menopause negatively impact sleep quality. A survey of more than 10,550 Sleep Number bed users found that “90 percent of respondents going through menopause or perimenopause suffer from night sweats.”
The company says its active cooling technology can help menopausal people sleep better by sensing changes in body temperature and dissipating excess heat using a dynamic airflow system. As with adjustable firmness, each side of the bed can be set to a different cooling program, so one person can stay cool and their partner can stay cozy.
Users can create their own cooling program or choose from two programs designed to meet different needs, including recovery, deep sleep, menopause, illness recovery and relaxation:
“All Night Cooling”, which keeps sleepers cool and can help alleviate temperature changes and hot flashes.
“Deep Sleep Cooling” designed to help reduce sleep disruptions in the middle of the night.
Like all Sleep Number mattresses, ClimateCool has adjustable firmness and built-in sleep tracking that measures your biosignals and provides a sleep report. These features can be accessed through the Sleep Number app.
The Sleep Number ClimateCool smart bed is available now on Sleepnumber.com and in Sleep Number stores starting at $5,499 (Queen size with integrated base) and $6,999 (Queen size with FlexFit 2 adjustable base).
