Alright, let’s talk about Eight Sleep here for a second.
I love my bed. Like, love it. Crawling in. Sleeping in. Staring at the ceiling with no intention of getting out. It’s my sanctuary. My recharge station. My favorite place on earth.
So when I first heard about Eight Sleep—this temperature-regulating mattress cover that Elon Musk and Zuck and a bunch of podcast dudes were raving about—I’ll be honest: I rolled my eyes. A $2,600 mattress cover? That’s startup brainworm behavior.
But then I kept hearing about it. From friends that seem like they’re always at the top of their game. Elon’s Twitter feed. The world’s biggest podcast. YouTube reviews that actually sounded human. People who talk about Eight Sleep talk about it with the same obsession I talk about skiing, my fantasy football keeper league, and jam bands. And not just billionaires. People like me. People who wanted to sleep better, recover better, and not wake up drenched in sweat like they just ran wind sprints in their dreams.
Eventually, I gave in.
And let me just say this: Eight Sleep’s Pod 4 is the most important upgrade to my life in last five years.
I’m officially fully on-board the Eight Sleep train.

Let me explain.
What Is It?
First of all, it’s not new mattress. I was confused by this too, but then I did some research: Eight Sleep is a smart mattress cover that fits over your current bed—like a temperature-regulating forcefield for your sleep. It plugs in. It connects to an elegant, state-of-the-art app. It adjusts in real-time as you sleep. It tracks your rest. It makes your bed cooler or warmer depending on what your body needs.
It even helps with snoring. It wakes you up gently. It learns your patterns. It’s basically like having a sleep scientist who tucks you in each night and says, “Hey buddy, I got this.”
And, yes, each side of the bed is customizable for you and your partner with Eight Sleep. So if you’re a hot sleeper and need to cool down at night and she wants to be a toasty bed burrito under the covers on her side of the bed, you can get the best of both worlds. You’ll both be feeling at your well-rested best in the morning.
What’s It Like To Actually Use?
I have a lot of gadgets in my house: Gadgets for making coffee. Gadgets for grilling. Gadgets for cleaning up my mess. Gadgets for shaving my face on occasion.
The Eight Sleep Pod 4 is my favorite gadget, period. That’s how much I treasure feeling well-rested in the morning after sleeping on it.
Setup was shockingly easy. The app walks you through everything: biometrics, goals, sleep style. Once it’s on, the Pod handles all the heavy lifting. No fan. No noise. Just quiet, consistent comfort.
And when I say it cools and heats, I don’t mean “a little chillier.” I mean it goes from 55°F to 110°F. Like sleeping on a glacier or a cozy sun-warmed rock. You choose your zone. Your partner chooses theirs. You both win.

And yeah, the Eight Sleep Pod 4 uses water. Not in a sloshy 1980s waterbed kind of way. More like a genius, NASA-level internal system that you never really think about after setup. Just keep a little room for the hub near your bed and let it do its thing.
So… Is It Worth It?
Short answer: yes. Longer answer: hell yes.
I was skeptical at first. But as someone who actually uses the Pod 4 every night, here’s my honest take: it’s a game changer, just like all the smart podcast bros said. I sleep deeper. I fall asleep faster. I feel better in the mornings. It’s helped me cut out the late-night tossing, the groggy wakeups, the pointless battles with the thermostat.
And look, this isn’t just a flashy tech toy anymore. Eight Sleep recently brought on three of the most respected minds in health and sleep—Andrew Huberman, Peter Attia, and Matthew Walker—as part of their Scientific Advisory Board. That’s neuroscience, longevity, and sleep science all in one lineup. It shows they’re not just making cool gear—they’re doubling down on the science to back it all up. With over 500 million hours of sleep data and 30+ published studies under their belt, Eight Sleep isn’t playing around. I really respect that this company is serious about sleep science to get it message out to the world, not just another gadget company trying to push something you don’t need on you.
I used to treat sleep like something I had to get through to attack the next day. Now? Sleep is the thing. It’s what powers the rest.
Is it expensive? Yeah.
- The Eight Sleep Pod 3 starts at $2,295
- The Eight Sleep Pod 4 starts at $2599
- The Pod 4 Ultra with a Cover, Hub, and Base (basically, a full state-of-the-art Eight Sleep bed) starts at $4599.
But… if you’re the kind of person who values performance—mental, physical, or just lifestyle—you already know that investing in recovery is one of the smartest decisions you can make.
And with zero-down payment plans, a free 30-night trial, and shipping included, Eight Sleep makes it easy to test the hype for yourself.
