How does Eight Sleep mattress work?

The Eight Sleep mattress operates by regulating the temperature of your sleeping environment, which is crucial for achieving quality sleep. The smart mattress cover can be programmed to adjust the temperature incrementally throughout the night, helping to drop the body temperature by 1 to 3 degrees for falling asleep and deep sleep, and then increasing it towards morning to help you wake up refreshed 1.

Dr. Andrew Huberman notes that the Eight Sleep mattress cover features precise sleep tracking capabilities, measuring various sleep stages like slow wave sleep and REM sleep. This helps users to fine-tune their sleep environment for optimal rest 2 3.

Additionally, the cover enables dual-zone temperature control, allowing different temperatures for each side of the bed, which is ideal if you share your bed with someone who has different temperature preferences 4. Huberman has personally experienced significant improvements in his sleep quality using the Eight Sleep mattress cover, highlighting its transformative impact 5.
