BedJet vs Perfectly Snug: Which Actually Delivers Better Sleep?

See how a fan at the foot of your bed promises cooler sleep, but sensor-driven cooling actually delivers it.

→ Same goal: you are looking for cooler, deeper sleep

→ You don't want hoses, large units, or a cooling system that only blows air at your feet

→ Where Perfectly Snug wins: smart temperature control, built-in dual-zone and easy to use controls right on the side of the topper

Set it once. Forget it for months and the sensors do the adjusting, you do the sleeping.

You Wanted Better Sleep. You Got a Fan at the Foot of Your Bed.

BedJet looks like the smart buy - $659 for a sleep-cooler sounds reasonable next to anything else on the market. The problem shows up around 2 AM, a few weeks in.


The hose drifts, your partner's side is a different temperature than yours (and there's no good fix unless you want to spend another $650 on a second unit). You reach for the remote at 3 AM and it's wedged under a pillow…the mattress underneath you, the thing that's actually holding all that heat, has been warm the whole night!


A cooling system that doesn't cool where the heat is isn't a bargain. It's an expensive fan.

Perfectly Snug was built for people who don't want to pay the cost of a product that half-solves the problem.

BedJet problems: hoses, remotes, and a hot mattress...solved by Perfectly Snug

Cooling you is the goal. The question is how much hardware you have to live with to get there and whether it solves the problem. Here's where BedJet's design adds friction, and how Perfectly Snug gets around each one.

The Real Cost Isn't Just the Sticker Price

BedJet's $659 looks cheap up front...but here's what it actually costs you!

Your mattress still holds heat. Peak performance means adding their $100+ sheets on top.

→

Your partner wants a different temp (55% of couples do)? You need a second unit. Now you're past the $1,300 mark.

→

You spend the night fiddling with temperature settings instead of sleeping.

→

You actually sleep worse because the fan is loud and blowing dry air up toward your face.

→

A cooling system should solve the problem and then disappear. Better sleep shouldn't require ongoing management, second units, or a second purchase when the first one isn't enough.

Nice, subtle cooling!

"My wife sleeps hot on our memory foam mattress. We tried the BedJet and it is definitely cooling on top but still felt warm on the bottom. We also tried a non-active “cooling” topper but it felt warmer than without the topper. We also ruled out the water based mattress toppers due to the need for ongoing maintenance and the possibility of leaks. Then we tried the Perfectly Snug topper. The cooling is very subtle, which we both like a lot. I love the burst mode that runs for 5 minutes (can be adjusted in the app) before it goes to the normal setting. We also like the easy to access controls right on the topper, no need to use your phone to make an adjustment during the night. It even has vocal confirmation of the setting change! We had a very cool morning last week so I tried the heat setting and that works well too. Yes, this is pricy, but a good night's sleep is worth it. Customer service was very prompt and professional when I contacted them with a question. We are loving this topper!"

Life changing for my sleep!

"Over the past year, several times a week,I have been waking up at the dreaded 3am and cannot go back to sleep. I've tried all the things, sleep headphones, eyemask, supplements, BedJet, some of it helped and others not so much. I was desperate and bought the Perfectly Snug not expecting that much. Boy was I wrong, it has been game changing. I am sleeping so much better and the air under you is so subtle, you hardly notice it but works. I didn't like the BedJet because it blasted cold air on your feet and didn't cover your whole body. This has breathable netting and covers your whole side of the bed. My husband wasn't keen to the idea initially but now he loves it to and its great you can have different tempatures on each side. Definitely recommend, sleep is so priceless!"

Better than BedJet or Chilipad

"When I saw the ad for the Smart Topper, I was using the latest BedJet with the sheet. Previously I had tried the Chilipad. I like this better than either one. I did not like the maintenance on the Chilipad and did not find it that comfortable. I have not tried the latest version of that. I liked the BedJet but sometimes I would kick it out of place. This works the best!"

Why Perfectly Snug?

Active Airflow

The Smart Topper uses active airflow underneath your body to keep you and your bed cool and dry. This cool air flow under your body, prevents heat build up where you lay and carries away excess humidity reducing night sweating.

Dual Zone Temperature Control

The Smart Topper uses active airflow underneath your body to keep you and your bed cool and dry. This cool air flow under your body, prevents heat build up where you lay and carries away excess humidity reducing night sweating.

Moisture Removal

No more sweat! The gentle cooling airflow underneath and around your body ensures that you'll stay cool and dry throughout the night.

Burst Mode

A burst of cooling or warming is perfect for rapid relief. Simply hold down the up or down button for an instant burst of warming or cooling. 

Schedule Your Sleep

Your sleep temperature changes throughout the night. Schedule your sleep temperature preferences so you can fall asleep quickly, sleep soundly, and wake up naturally.

Smart Sensors

The sensors in the Smart Topper monitor your body temperature to detect when your body temperature has risen or fallen below your set temperature. When it detects the temperature change, it will automatically adjust cooling and heating throughout the night.

Foot Warming

Hate getting into bed with icy cold feet? Turn on the foot heater and say goodbye to icy cold feet. Climb into a cozy warm bed with heating concentrated at the bottom of your bed. Helps you fall asleep faster, increases total sleep time and efficiency, and reduces awakenings.

Noise Level

The Smart Topper is nearly silent when cooling at a low level. At 50% cooling it’s a quiet whoosh. At full cooling, it sounds similar to a stand-alone fan running in the room. The level of cooling selected will determine how loud the fans will run. There is a fan limiter setting in the app for sensitive sleepers.
