    I feel like they could've definitely made the pump/pod a horizontal orientation to fit under the bed, or an outright nightstand so you can use it without taking up additional space.

      Most beds do not have space to store things underneath. But you do make a good point it could be better if it were more square so that you could put it flat against a wall or in a bed-side table even.

    Although exorbitant in cost, I find the temperature regulation great for adding on to a standard mattress. I'm interested in knowing if it makes any sounds or changes the feel of the mattress when laying on top and or during the night. Thanks for the review

    • @firefox2462

      It does interrupt the feel of ur mattress especially if it's like a memory foam. But as for the sound, it's very quiet and if you have a fan on you can barely hear it

  • @Daddymack1881

    Giveaway: I would say my favorite thing is that these covers function like a waterbed. As old school as it sounds I’m turning 57 this month and have slept exclusively on a waterbed since I was probably 20. So having a cool mattress in the summer and warming it up in the winter is something I’ve always been able to do. However, going to their website it seems these Pods aren’t compatible with adjustable frame beds which is what I will be looking to transition to when I make my change.

  • @TheGoldishFish
    @TheGoldishFish 3 роки тому +6

    I have a Eight Sleep Pod Pro Cover i have mine set to -10 for maximum cold and my body heat over powers the Peltier Module that heats and cool the cover. so if you sleep hot this helps but doesn't solve the issue.

    How about the two membership options? Do you guys think ordering the matress only without getting the monthly subscription is worth it? The subscription gives us the Temperature Autopilot. With it, the mattress/cover should become smart and self-adjust to provide us with the best sleep. I would love to hear your opinions.

    I never had any issues with being a hot sleeper until mattresses started coming onto the market with a high content of foam. This is especially so when I used to sleep on those foam toppers. Latex foam toppers offer little relief in this area as I’ve tried two so far. Loved the cushion and pressure point relief but hated waking up at 3am feeling like a turkey on thanksgiving day.
    This sounds like it would be exactly what I need but there’s just too many components that can, and will eventually fail. I purchased a NightAir adjustable mattress last year and love the ability to adjust the firmness of the different areas of the mattress but in less than a year I’ve needed to replace the air controller twice and will need to call the company to send yet another controller as I type this. Why is it so had to find a good mattress that doesn’t contain any foam?

I have an adjustable base and after seeing your review this may not work for us. Shoot!! I was really liking this pod cover.

  • @StefanLopuszanski
    @StefanLopuszanski 2 роки тому +1

    The fact you can't use it at all with an adjustable base kills it for me. Haven't seen like anyone talk about this except your video. I thought you might be able to like "turn off" the device to use your adjustable base, but since there's that metal bar in the middle you can't even do that. I get why they don't have it working for an adjustable base since it needs a flat flow of water to work, but it would be nice to have an "off mode" for when you just want to use an adjustable base without it activate. Oh well... will wait for their next model I guess.

    • @StefanLopuszanski
      @StefanLopuszanski 2 роки тому

  • @herbertbell9438
    @herbertbell9438 11 місяців тому

    I'm guessing this cools water by refrigeration rather than evaporation as some systems do. It's a pretty dramatic difference of course as with an evaporative cooling system you have to constantly pour water into the tank. This system seems pretty good except for the whole "phone app" thing. That's OK for some , not for others. Some people want the data on their sleep but a lot of others won't want someone else gathering that data as well or the hassle of wi fi disconnecting, setting up apps etc. At the end of the day it's a data harvesting device for the company that sells it not for you. Anything you have to connect to your phone is a data harvesting device.

    Hello! Thanks so much for your deep-dive review, I really appreciate it because like so many here, I'm a little hesitant to pluck this much from my bank account unless it would be really worth it to me. You are really providing a responsible, objective analysis for us. Question: (and I so hope you're still answering questions) I've seen you say several times that those people who own a memory foam mattress might be a bit dissatisfied because the inner workings might feel a bit more noticeable--- what about people like me who own a hybrid, latex mattress with some memory foam? And 2. Wouldn't a low profile mattress pad alleviate the problem? Thanks sooo much!!!

    Giveaway: what I like most about it is the active cooling feature for a more reasonable price then the pod pro mattress.

Really really want one of these once I have a new mattress to combat my night sweats/hot flashes and monitor my narcolepsy.

    I got the POD 3 the week it came out and they sent me the wrong mattress. It’s supposed to come with an 11 inch mattress to go with the 1 inch comfort topper. They sent me the 10 inch mattress that goes with the cheaper PRO model, it even said PRO on the box. I notified them that the box said PRO and it seems like they sent me the wrong mattress. They said it was correct and I want ahead with the setup. I slept on the mattress for 3 weeks before I decided to measure it and well I was right, wrong mattress. It took forever to get a hold of the customer support and I had to provide video and pictures of the mattress measuring 10 inches. They finally shipped out a replacement mattress, and again the box said PRO on it. I notified them the box said PRO, and I have the POD 3, and once again they assured me it was the right mattress. I went ahead with the setup, and after 2 weeks I measured the replacement mattress and once again it was the 10 inch pro model.. I wonder how many people are paying for the POD 3 and getting a cheaper, wrong mattress. At this point I decided to return the complete system for a full refund, which they did do as I was within my 100 night trial. I do not recommend eight sleep mattress, but I did however love the cooling technology. I would recommend everyone to get their own mattress then purchase the POD COVER..

    Wonder if they were smart with the design of the pump in that if one side is hot and the other is cold that it acts like a heat pump siphoning heat from one side to the other.
    Example being I like cold, my wife likes hot, I generate a lot of heat, so would it work effectively in pumping my heat into her side.

    Giveaway: my wife and I both are heavy people and recently purchased the king size Casper Select 12" while it was on sale for $650 from Costco. About 2 weeks in so far and no real complaints other than I feel I am sleeping a bit on the warm side, and I imagine the Eight Sleep Pod Pro Cover might help with that. We had the Zinus 12" Green Tea Memory Foam before the Casper and it lasted about 2 years for us before it started to sag and another year before it was almost unusable. In our spare bedroom we have the Zinus 12" Gel Memory Foam and it feels far better than the Green Tea memory foam mattress.

  • @vancewalker7045

    People sleep better at certain temperatures throughout the night. Most people need it cooler for better sleep- my main interest in this, but it isn't mentioned. From sleep expert Matt Walker: "Your body needs to drop its core temperature by about 2 to 3 degrees Fahrenheit to initiate sleep and then to stay asleep. And it's the reason you will always find it easier to fall asleep in a room that's too cold than too hot. So aim for a bedroom temperature of around 65 degrees or about 18 degrees Celsius

    After reading a bunch of customer reviews, I'm very leary of buying something this expensive.

    • @FirstMM
      @FirstMM 2 роки тому

      According to their website the subscription is included in the price now, presumably after complaints about ongoing costs. Regarding the phone screen, I think the idea is that you set it up to automatically do what you works and tweak as neccessary, rather than wake up in the middle of the night uncomfortable.
