Cooling Comforters Designed for Hot Sleepers

Most comforters trap heat under the covers, which is what wakes hot sleepers up at 3 a.m. Eucalyptus fiber works differently, conducting heat away from the body and releasing it through the weave. Both of our comforters are built on this principle.

The Breeze Comforter is the lighter pick, with a TENCEL™ lyocell shell and fill, recommended for warmer sleepers and climates. The Cloud Comforter is the all-season pick, with a TENCEL™ lyocell shell and 100% GRS-certified, BPA-free recycled PET fill that delivers airy loft and cooling: 32% higher airflow than cotton and a 1.9°F drop in body temperature, the ideal state for falling and staying asleep.

Both are OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 Class 1 certified, the chemistry tier independently verified to the highest standard. Pair yours with a Breeze Sheet Set to extend the cooling system underneath.

Frequently Asked Questions About Comforters for Hot Sleepers

Eucalyptus fiber and TENCEL™ lyocell are strong performers for hot sleepers, conducting heat off the body and wicking moisture faster than cotton or down. Down traps heat under the covers and is difficult to clean. Polyester blends sit warm against the skin and don't manage moisture well. Cotton breathes but doesn't actively pull heat off the body the way Lyocell does.

Yes. Night sweats and hot flashes cause body temperature to spike, leaving sleepers overheated and damp under the covers. A cooling comforter actively pulls heat off the body. The Breeze Comforter is the lightest option for sleepers who run hot all year. The Cloud Comforter pairs the same eucalyptus-derived shell with a fluffier fill, so it stays cooling even at full loft.

For hot sleepers, yes. Down creates an insulated air layer that traps body heat under the covers, which is exactly what causes overheating. Cooling comforters with eucalyptus-derived shells release heat through the weave.

Yes, when the fill and shell work together. Fluffy comforters get hot when the fill traps heat (like down or dense polyester) and the shell doesn't release moisture (like polyester or sateen cotton). The Cloud Comforter is fluffy and cooling because the lyocell shell conducts heat away from the skin, and the recycled PET fill lets it pass through.

The Breeze Comforter is the lighter pick, with a 100% eucalyptus fiber shell and fill that runs thinner and regulates temperature through the night, recommended for warm climates or sleepers who run hot all year. The Cloud Comforter is the all-season pick, with a TENCEL™ lyocell shell and recycled PET fill that delivers fluffy loft while still releasing body heat. If you run hot all year, choose Breeze. If you want cooling at full loft, choose Cloud.

Every Buffy comforter ordered online comes with a 7-night At Home Trial, so there is no charge at checkout until after your trial. Orders also include free shipping, 50-night free returns, and a Three Year Protection Plan.

The Breeze Comforter should be spot cleaned regularly and dry cleaned when needed. Using it with a duvet cover is recommended to extend the time between cleanings. The Cloud Comforter is machine-washable on cold and can be dried on low heat or air fluff. A cover is recommended for the Cloud, too, to cut down on full washes.
