Firmness Info

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

A soft mattress and a firm mattress in one. Our signature flippable firmness™ means you have two choices in one mattress to find the right fit for you. One side of the mattress has a soft, plush feel, or you can flip it over to the other side for a firmer, even more supportive feel. On a scale from 1 to 10 with 1 being the softest, The Layla Hybrid scores a 4 out of 10 on the soft side and a 7 out of 10 on the firm side. Add the Layla Topper™ to any side to soften up those numbers even more.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

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.
The Hub is the core that powers the Pod.
The Pod Pro includes:
  • 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

The Layla Hybrid has five layers:

  • Soft side: 2.5" Copper-Infused Memory Foam (Density: 3.5lbs, ILD: 12)
  • Soft side: 2" Layla Tri-Zone-Airflow™ Transition Layer - Open-cell Polyurethane Foam with Surface Modification Technology (SMT) (Density: 1.65lbs, ILD: 23)
  • 6" Layla Infinity Edge™ Spring System
  • Firm Side: 1.5" Layla Tri-Zone-Airflow™ Transition Layer - Open-cell Polyurethane Foam with Surface Modification Technology (SMT) (Density: 1.65lbs, ILD: 40)
  • Firm Side: 1" Copper-Infused Memory Foam (Density: 3.5lbs, ILD: 12).

Comfort Info

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.

Amazing comfort for all sleeping positions - with the Variable Support properties of copper infused memory foam, combined with two unique comfort options in one mattress, the Layla Hybrid truly addresses the needs of side sleepers, back sleepers and stomach sleepers.

Support Info

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.

Flip it to the side that feels best for you. Softer and more plush, the soft side of the Layla Hybrid Mattress is great for those who prefer a little hug from your mattress. The firm side offers less sink and increased support for a more traditional firmer feeling mattress.

Comfort Specs

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.

Copper-infused foam transfers heat away from your body faster, resulting in a much cooler sleeping experience. And because copper is naturally anti-microbial, the copper gel in this mattress will form an antimicrobial barrier that resists odor causing bacteria and keeps you sleeping fresh.
Surface Modification Technology (SMT) shapes are cut up to half an inch deep for added support, airflow, and pressure relief.

Support Specs

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.

Memory foam infused with copper reacts under body weight with a firming response. This response is called Variable Support and unlike traditional memory foam, it provides increased support at deep compression areas.
The tri-zone layers provide more support in the center of the mattress (for hips and shoulders).
High quality American-made 14 gauge central springs are individually wrapped in fabric so you get individual support for every inch of your body. The springs move independently so when your partner moves around your side of the bed stays put allowing you to sleep soundly through the night. A double coil perimeter in the two outermost rows using 16 gauge coils make for superior edge support.

Fabric Specs

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.

Our super-soft high quality thick fabric allows for a comfortable sleeping experience and is removable for easy cleaning and maintenance (Fabric: 66% Polyester, 30% viscose, 4% poly lycra). If you're going to flip a hybrid mattress, you need to get a handle on it. We've taken care of that for you too!
