The ChiliSleep OOLER checks off a lot of boxes for my personal sleep preferences. Living in TX, where even at night it is still 80+ gives me a lot of sleepless nights. I am one of those that not only love, but have to sleep with the AC and Fans on. I love being cold, as in mid 60s to super low 70s is my perfect comfort zone. The OOLER promises better sleep and can be either cold or if you need the opposite, warm. There is even a warm-wake option which is pretty neat, but I don't use it as I prefer being an ice cube. In the box you get the mattress pad (depending on your bed size), cooling unit, hose is attached to the pad to connect to the unit, power cord, quick start guides and a nice carrying bag for the pad. Setup is really easy. I have a pillowtop queen and the pad fits perfectly on it. 2 straps on the pad holds it firmly in place and so far has not shuffled around at all. I put the cooling unit under my bed near the side I sleep on and the hose connects with a click to make sure it is secured. Please use distilled water! I can't emphasize that enough. Also note, the pad is 2 sided! One is labeled cooler side, and the other is the comfy side. I choose cooler for obvious reasons and is comfortable for me. Once you download the app and complete the setup, you can easily control everything from there. Power on and off, temp control, even self cleaning (uses UV light to kill bacteria) for 45 minutes at 75 degrees. The unit connects to whatever you downloaded the app on via bluetooth so as long as you're in range, everything works perfectly. I do kind of wish there was a wifi option as I could start up the unit while driving home from work to make it nice and cold for me. Performance is where I am on the fence. First and foremost, does it work? Short answer is YES. Since it is a half queen, the side without the pad is room temp and feeling the side with the pad is noticeably colder. As stated above, I want it cold so I set the temp to 55 or low. As you can see in the pics, the coldest it ever got was 68 degrees and when I set it to LOW & Turned on BOOST, the temp rose! I am no engineer or anything, but I think your own body temp plays a role in the temp display. There is a big difference in ~70 degrees and 55 so I don't think it can even get that low. Every time when laying on the bed or waking up, the temps just hover ~68-71 mark. In the end, it is going to boil down to personal preferences but even though I was saddened that I couldn't get it as cold as I wanted, I was still pleased at the performance of the system. It does what it says it can do and is super user friendly. Setup is a breeze so as long you can lift your own mattress.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *****Review***** --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are you an individual where your body temperature tends to run a bit “hotter” than normal folks? Or maybe you are an individual that is the total opposite where your body temperature runs cooler than normal folks so you end up getting cold easily. Now when you combine what I mentioned about body temperature and sleep; it definitely plays a huge role in the quality of sleep you get. That is where the ChiliSleep Ooler comes in. The ChiliSleep Ooler was designed to help improve and optimize your sleep by regulating your body temperature with it’s hydro-powered thermal range of 55-115°F. The main question is really how well does the ChiliSleep Ooler perform and does it really improve and optimize the quality of your sleep? I am going to first talk about the setup of the ChiliSleep Ooler and Hydropower Mattress Pad. There’s really not much to dive into as the setup was EXTREMELY simple. The Hydropower Mattress Pad has straps that go underneath your mattress so that it helps with any shifting/movement. The Hydropower Mattress Pad itself goes on top of your mattress and beneath your sheet/cover. Next you attach the hose to the Chilisleep Ooler and fill it up with water (I used distilled) and hit power. That is literally it! Be sure to download the app after though! I love the fact that everything on the ChiliSleep Ooler can be controlled through the app. For me personally, I didn’t run into any issues at all with setting up the app and syncing the unit. On the app itself you have the ability to turn the unit on/off and set the unit on silent, regular or boost (personally I’ve never had to change it from silent unless I wanted to quickly cool the Hydropower Mattress Pad). In addition you also have the ability to change the temperature, set a sleep schedule so that the unit turns on/off automatically, deep clean through internal UV light (this is where the unit will heat the water up to 75°F for one hour - for additional cleaning since the unit itself automatically and periodically cleans itself through the UV light when it’s on). There’s also additional features within the app such as Warm Awake when you set a schedule so that it heats the bed to assist you with transitioning out of sleep; personally that is pretty neat. Of course you’ll also find device information along with support if you need any assistance. So when it comes down to the performance of the ChiliSleep Ooler and does it actually in fact improve and optimize the quality of your sleep? Simple answer; YES. Personally I’ve set my temperature to 63°F because again I generally run warmer. In addition to running warmer, my home doesn’t have air conditioning. I also set a sleep schedule for myself and opted not to enable the Warm Awake feature since my body generally runs warmer than the average male. I have to say I am thoroughly impressed. I am a fitness enthusiast so sleep is crucial and essential for my well being. Before the ChiliSleep Ooler I most often than not suffered from not being able to fall asleep in addition to always waking up throughout the night. Because the ChiliSleep Ooler is consistently regulating my body temperature; I was able to finally get some quality uninterrupted sleep. Even if you are not a fitness enthusiast and you’re an individual that has trouble falling asleep or staying asleep; I highly recommend you check out the ChiliSleep Ooler. Sleep is crucial and most of us aren’t able to get the quality sleep that we deserve. Overall I have to say I am thoroughly satisfied with the ChiliSleep Ooler as it has exceeded my expectations. If you are someone that has trouble getting the quality sleep you deserve or have trouble falling asleep due to your body running warmer/colder than the average individual; the ChiliSleep Ooler is for you. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *****Quick Features & Specs***** --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The OOLER is our most luxurious sleep system with a hydro-powered thermal range that operates from 55-115°F. It includes a hydronic pad, control unit(s) & OOLER app for sleep schedules. Enjoy upgraded features to improve sleep & optimize it for 1 or 2 sleepers. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *****What's in the box***** --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChiliSleep - Ooler Hydropower Mattress Pad Half Queen (hose attached) Bag for Hydropower Mattress Pad Power Cable Various Manuals

Picked up the Chilisleep Ooler cooling and heating pad; I tend to get hot and sweat during sleep so I thought the Chilisleep would be a good way of keeping me cool at night. It was easy to setup and use as well as it kepted me cool throughout the whole night. Setup Setting up the Chilisleep was simple, simple put the main unit at the base of your bed and lay the cooling and heating pad on your mattress then plug in the pad hose to your main unit and fill the reservoir with water and you're ready to go. Use Using the chilisleep was also simple, you can control everything from the main unit itself or download the Ooler app and connect it remotely via Bluetooth and control everything from bed. I found the app easy to use. Summary I would recommend anyone looking to get a cooler night's sleep the Ooler Chilisleep system but make sure you get the full pad for your bed size. Noise level wasn't much of an issue for me, considering I'm somewhat of a light sleeper. You can set the temp for both cooling and heating but I assume most people get it for the cooling feature.
