Firmness Info

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

One perfect bed, no more morning blues. Purple gives the best of both firm and soft with our pressure-erasing Smart Comfort Grid™. Wake up on the right side the World's First No Pressure™ mattress.

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

Three layer construction:

  • Top Layer: 2" Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ material in Smart Comfort Grid™ Non-toxic polyethylene copolymer powder coating
  • Middle Layer: 3.5" 1.8 lbs density polyurethane foam
  • Base Layer: 4" 2.0 lbs density polyurethane foam

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.

Ventilation is the key to sleeping just right - not too hot, and not too cold. Purple achieves the ultimate sleep comfortability by combining a totally new material with a totally unique design. Purple remains temperature-neutral so you don't sleep hot and sweaty at night.

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.

A revolutionary mattress designed for just about everyone. It's designed to not only help you get better sleep, but to soothe joints, release pressure on the hips and shoulders, and support the neck and back. It's designed to make bedtime the highlight of your day!

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.

Purple's column design allows air to flow freely, preventing moisture trapping, extending the life of the mattress, and providing cleaner, more comfortable sleep. Thanks to the free air flow design and patented polymer materials, Purple naturally sleeps much cooler than memory foam, latex, and other mattress technology.

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.

The Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ Purple is a pressure-releasing material. This material is organized in a grid formation, which creates walls that can support or fold, depending on how much pressure it receives. It's durable enough to last decades so you won't develop a body impression. And it buckles under specific pressure, which provides excellent motion isolation so you don't feel someone else move in the bed.

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.

NEW SoftFlex Wave Knit: 29% Viscose, 67% Polyester, 4% Lycra (all +/- 5%). A custom, super-soft knit with tons of stretch so it can flex with both your movement and the Grid's. Its breathable material is also the perfect complement to the Grid's 1,800+ air channels.
