gel mattress

Squishy sleep surface

A gel mattress is a mattress incorporating gel-infused foam or gel layers, designed to provide cushioning while dissipating body heat better than traditional memory foam.

The gel may be distributed throughout the foam or concentrated in a top layer.

Marketing emphasizes cooling properties and pressure relief: We switched to a gel mattress because I was waking up sweaty.
