After upgrading from a queen-sized Purple mattress to the king-sized Aurora Luxe Cooling, my wife and I have found the mattress to be satisfactory but not exceptional. The mattress initially impressed us with its cool-to-the-touch feature. However, we noticed a significant reduction in this cooling effect after adding the recommended Brooklyn Bedding mattress protector and sheets. This was somewhat disappointing as the cool feel was a major selling point for us.

While the mattress does provide a decent level of comfort, it hasn't fully met our expectations for a night's sleep, especially when compared to our previous mattress. The quality is there, but the unique cooling sensation we were looking forward to becomes muted, which has led us to reconsider our options. Given our experience, we are contemplating a return in favor of either a Purple or Temperpedic mattress, hoping for a better match to our personal comfort preferences.
