The best summer sheet sets for hot sleepers and sticky nights

There's almost nothing quite as frustrating than a hot summer's night where you just can't seem to fall asleep due to the heat. No matter whether you try a wet cloth, flipping over your pillow to the cool side or your fan on full bore, it can seem like falling asleep is impossible.

However, one thing you can do that will make all the difference is to change your sheets to a set made out of cooling materials such as linen, cotton or bamboo. Considering the average person spends 26 years asleep with an additional seven years trying to get to sleep, investing in good bedding in a true investment in your wellbeing.
