Temperature has a huge impact on one's quality of sleep. With summer heat in full effect, The Better Show gets ❄️cool ❄️ by testing out the ChiliPad- a mattress pad that promises to keep your bed cool & comfy. Ian was our guinea pig for this test. He explains how the ChiliPad works and shares his experience with it so far.
