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 WinkBeds PLUS is the ultimate mattress designed for people in heavier weight ranges. It's possibly the most durable mattress on the market. Constructed of the following layers:

  • Tencel© cover
  • Body Impression-Proof High-Density Foam (Density 2.5lb)
  • 2.5" 7-zoned 100% latex support layer
  • Patented 3-Zone TexasQUAD individually wrapped support coil

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.

Triple Layer Heat-Disperse Material that maximizes a cooler sleep.
SleepCalm Motion Isolation technology for a less disturbed sleep with partners.

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.

In a simulation of 20 years of bed use by a 350 lb sleeper, the Plus by WinkBed retained 99.2% of its loft and 98% of its firmness, which is a truly outstanding result. They repeat this test periodically to ensure long term consistency and reliability.
Every WinkBed comes with these features:

  • 3-Step Back Relief System to eliminate muscle tension and align the spine and joints.
  • LumbarLayer for extra support in the middle "lumbar region" of your body.
  • extraEDGE Support System provides an extra 15% more sleepable area through enhanced edge support.

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.

The latex features an open cell design that maximizes heat transfer away from the body.

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.

A 2.5" layer of 100% pure latex that contains 7 distinct support zones. Pure latex has been proven to maintain its firmness and shape better than any other foam product on the market.
A patented individually wrapped coil design that is specifically built to support heavier weights. Every 4 coils are banded together and reinforced to ensure a supremely supportive and durable feel.

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.

A cover derived from Tencel©, a 100% natural, eucalyptus-based performance fabric. It sleeps 30% cooler than linen, is softer than silk, and wicks away heat.
