One of our best cheap cooling mattresses just got a huge price drop, courtesy of an epic Walmart sale. You can buy a queen Cocoon by Sealy Chill Hybrid mattress for just currently just $434 at Walmart– that's less than half what you'd pay shopping direct with Sealy.
The Cocoon Hybrid by Sealy is a cooling bed with a supportive feel that's ideal for back and stomach sleepers. The Cocoon range is one of the best mattresses for temperature regulation on a budget, and this Walmart deal knocks the already-excellent price down even further.
At Tom's Guide, we don't normally recommend buying from third-party retailers as you don't always get the same warranties and benefits. However, this deal entitles you to the same free shipping and 10-year warranty as shopping direct with Sealy. The biggest downside is that you'll get a 90 day trial period compared to 100 at Sealy – and comes with the frustrating caveat that the mattress must be in the box to be returned.
Sealy has run the same evergreen 35% off plus free bedding deal for a long time now, and we don't expect them to deviate from it during the upcoming Memorial Day mattress sales. If you're sure that this is the best cooling mattress for you, this is a mattress sale well worth capitalising on.
Should you buy a mattress from Walmart?
When buying a mattress from a third-party retailer such as Walmart or Amazon, it comes with certain risks. The biggest drawback is that they tend to come with a shorter mattress trial, or no trial at all. Many sites promise a lengthy return period with the caveat that the mattress must remain in the box – which isn't really a trial, just a chance to send it back if you ordered the wrong one.
Third-party sites can also have limited warranties, although many maintain the manufacturer warranty. You also risk poor after care, as you won't have the specialized service of buying from a sleep brand.
However, sometimes deals pop up on third-party retailers that are just too good to ignore – this Cocoon by Sealy Hybrid is one of them. If you do choose to shop third-party, make sure to read the fine print so you understand the kind of trial and warranty you'll be getting.
