# If it’s cold outside, some defend the practice of those who are lenient not to sleep in the Sukkah, however, many hold that one should make an extra effort to sleep in the Sukkah (either by making a insulated Sukkah, or by bringing in heaters or by toughing it out). <Ref> Rama 639:1, Nemukei orach Chaim 639:1, Chazon Ovadyah pg 195 </ref>
# If it’s cold outside, some defend the practice of those who are lenient not to sleep in the Sukkah, however, many hold that one should make an extra effort to sleep in the Sukkah (either by making a insulated Sukkah, or by bringing in heaters or by toughing it out). <Ref> Rama 639:2 defends the practice of those who are lenient in not sleeping in the Sukkah saying that where it's too cold it's painful to sleep there and so one may sleep outside the Sukkah. Mishna Brurah 639:17 comments that this is so if one doesn't have proper pillows and blankets to keep one warm (implying that if one has proper coats and balnkets one should sleep in the Sukkah.)[see Nemukei orach Chaim 639:1 who discusses this at length.] Chazon Ovadyah pg 195 rules like the Rama. </ref>
