Aslan 10" GEL Memory Foam vs Eight Pod 2

The Aslan mattress is a medium-firm (comfortable, yet supportive) sleep system comprised of the latest in sleep technology.

The Pod Pro was designed to be comfortable for most people at a medium firmness.

The Aslan Mattress is the result of 11+ years being involved specifically in the online mattress industry. Eleven hard, yet exciting years of designing, creating, and testing (at 3rd party labs) dozens of mattress prototypes and materials. It is the very best combination of the newest sleep technologies on the market offered at a very fair and sensible price. Three layers of state-of-the-art foam:

• 2" GEL Infused Phase Change Memory Foam
• 1.5" Next Generation Memory Foam
• 6.5" Active Suppot Foam.

Five layers of CertiPUR-US®-certified foam for the ideal medium firmness and contouring support.

• 1" Comfort Blend™ Integrated Topper
• 2" Airflow Top Layer
• 1" Supportive Air Technology™
• 4" FlexSpring technology core
• 4" Durable Premium Base.

• Room Climate and Weather Response
• Daily Health Check & HRV Monitoring
• GentleRise™ Wake Up Technology
• Dual-Zone Cooling & Heating
• Advanced Sleep Tracking
• Free iOS/Android App

You will only find high quality CertiPUR-US®, American made foam in our mattresses. Foam selected for the Aslan mattress is considered a specialty foam, very durable, and contains the latest visco-elastic and cooling technologies, like Phase Change Material (originally developed for space suits), GEL, and advanced air flow - features that are necessary to regulate sleeping temperature and help you be cooler at night.

The Pod's hydro-cooling technology can heat and cool each side of the bed from 55 to 110 degrees Fahrenheit - keeping you at a comfortable temperature all night. With its Smart Temp technology, the Pod continuously and automatically adjusts the temperature of each bed side based on signals from your body and environment. Water flows through the Hub's hydro-engines to the Active Grid to keep the bed as warm or cool as you desire. Fits next to your night stand. Refill with water every 2-3 months.
With twice as many sensors as the original Pod, the Pod Pro is the first mattress with built-in HRV monitoring, alongside other biometrics such as Resting Heart Rate, Respiratory Rate, Sleep Stages, and Sleep Time. HRV variations can help you track your health to understand your body's fatigue level and anticipate illness.

Our foam has been pressure mapped to ensure the layers of foam perform well for all sleeping positions and body types.

Like a premium topper, the integrated Comfort Blend™ pairs with the other four layers of premium foam for the ultimate contouring support while continuing to deliver a personalized microclimate on each side of the bed.

Our top layer of memory foam combines 3 cooling technologies; phase change material, open-cell viscoelastic and beaded gel-foam technology - providing improved temperature regulation and reduced pressure points.

The Pod Pro features an additional layer of foam in its Active Grid - the thermoregulating layer of the bed. This layer dynamically heats and cools during the night.
The Pod Pro features a proprietary smart alarm. This first of its kind wake-up experience uses gentle vibration at chest level to wake you up while gradually cooling or warming the bed to ensure a smooth morning experience with no disruption to your partner. Set it and control it from the Eight Sleep app.

The Next Generation Memory Foam provides a little bounce, quick rebound, and exceptional durability. This layer has a very high pressure relieving index and is the perfect transition (for all body types) to the Active Support foam.
The Active Support foam is a high quality, tried and true durable support foam that holds its physical properties over time and is designed to correctly align your spine for an ideal sleep position.

The Airflow layer is soft to the touch and outperforms other foam on airflow, elasticity, and instantaneous response to your body impressions.
The Supportive Air Technology™ comforts your body while millions of air cells reduce pressure in sensitive areas.
The FlexSpring technology core is uniquely responsive and features enhanced cradling performance and high support.
The premium base layer absorbs movement while still providing a natural bounce feeling.

The Aslan Mattress features a soft knit, breathable cover that is designed to prevent heat buildup in the mattress. It is made in the USA and does not contain chemical fire retardents. Spot clean only.

The Active Grid cover with Comfort Blend™
A premium and breathable cover. Water flows from the Hub to this thin and contouring layer to keep you at your ideal temperature. It also includes the sensors that track your biometrics and an integrated layer of foam for superior comfort.
