Compared to memory foam and innerspring, does it sleep hot. The memory foam I just got (Emma), sleeps too hot for my taste, so I will be returning it. I've heard both opinions on how hot latex is.

I don't know, but I imagine most S brands with their PU foam and synthetic tops probably sleep hotter than most other mattresses.
I do believe that wool helps regulate heat and cold.
I sleep hot in the summer but can't say it's because of my foam. I think it's just hot in the summer and one tends to get hot.

One thing I DO know: make sure you don't use too high of a thread count in your sheets because a high thread count does not breathe well. Get the lowest thread count you can feel comfortable with. (Too low and it feels "scratchy" to me; not soft enough.)

real linen made from flax is by far the coolest sleeping sheets you can buy.  and if you get good ones they will last a life time anyway
