Faster temperature response

The Pod 6 hub is redesigned to fit under most bed frames and pumps temperature-controlled water into the mattress cover. Eight Sleep says the Pod 6 offers the fastest temperature response of any of its products, around twenty percent faster.

Eighteen biometric sensors

The Pod 6 includes eighteen biometric sensors compared to just two with the Pod 5. These sensors track heart rate, breath rate, heart rate variability, snoring, sleep stages and more, all without needing a wearable device.

AI adjusts automatically

The sensors feed Eight Sleep's AI engine and Autopilot system, which automatically adjust the mattress cover based on sleep stage and ambient temperature. The sensors can distinguish two people sleeping close together or separate a human sleeper's signal from a pet.

Solo model costs two thousand

Eight Sleep introduced a smaller Pod 6 size for solo sleepers without dual-zone temperature regulation, making it cheaper. The solo model starts at two thousand dollars, with standard sizes reaching three thousand dollars depending on mattress size.

Monthly subscription required

Every Pod 6 model requires a subscription to Eight Sleep's Autopilot program, costing seventeen to twenty five dollars per month. The Pod 6 is a smart sleep system consisting of a hub and mattress cover, available for purchase now.
