I've had a long disucssion with my daughter about her Sleepez bed.  The issue is she is sleeping too hot at night.  I have a theory about this, because as I mentioned in my previous Flobed/Sleepez Comparison thread, the Sleepez cover is very thin with very little wool actually quilted to the cover.  My Flobed mattress cover is much more luxurious with 2" of wool quilted to the cotton knit on all sides.  I think the Sleepez cover does not have enough wool to insulate against the warm tendencies of latex.  It's just a theory.

The bottom line is, she can't sleep, she's tossing and turning all night, and sweating all night because the mattress is just too hot.

So I sat down with her to discuss the options, which are:

1) return the mattress and get something else (not latex);

2) get a wool topper for the bed and see if that will ameliorate the heat issues.  We have lots of time left on the 90 day return period, so I would like to see if I can address her heat issue by putting some insulating material between the mattress and my daughter before I go the more drastic route of returning the entire mattress for a refund.

I tried searching the site for information about wool toppers, but there is just so much here and I couldn't find any threads that specifically speak to wool toppers.

SO.  Anyone have a nice quality wool topper they can recommend?  Budgy, you are a wealth of information - what do you suggest I can put on the bed to try to address the heat issue?
