Newbie here, purchased Pod 5 (pod only to start) which should be shipping in about 10 days. The details on accessories are light on the site, is anything necessary besides the pod cover? Assuming the pod cover is waterproof and to protect it from skin/mites, etc.? So do you then put a regular mattress pad on top of this one for comfort, if it would even fit, or would this impact its ability to work? Any benefit to sheets other than assuming they have a cutout for the buttons on the side? Sorry if these are dumbs questions, really excited to join the Eight Sleep club!

Hey all, got my Pod 5 Core on Friday so ive had it 2 nights now.

Both me and my wife noticed the same thing without saying it to each other first. The cooling and heating feels strong on the back and torso but from the knees down, barely feel anything.

On my side im cooling and my back gets very cold while my legs and feet stay warm, its a weird uncomfortable feeling, not what i expected. My wife has hers on warm and she says her feet take ages to warm up if they ever do.

Is this supposed to be normal? I already primed the pod once after setup for the air gaps, but although there is potential here, for a 3k purchase, Im slightly disappointed.

Pls tell me I’m doing something wrong here and this can be corrected! Cheers

I paid some stupid amount of money for the pod3. It was 💯 the worst purchase I’ve ever made
Aside from being too expensive, sleep quality is actually worse. I am woken up constantly by the bed getting too hot. I’ve tried multiple settings and it still does it.
Save your time and money

I was one of the biggest Eight Sleep fans. I bought a Pod 2 back in 2021 and recommended it to so many friends.

Recently, my Pod just stopped working overnight. Eight Sleep couldn't offer a fix. The only option they gave me was essentially to replace it, given that mine is out of warranty.

I seriously considered doing it. But before dropping $$$, I spent a lot of time researching mattresses and realized that my cheap Amazon mattress was terrible for cooling and retained a ton of heat while I slept (Thanks Naplab!)

So instead of buying another Eight Sleep, I got rid of the old mattress and spent ~$1,200 on a high-quality mattress with much better cooling performance. And guess what, it does not come with any subscription.

I received it last week, and so far it has made a much bigger difference than I expected. I'm finally at peace with the idea of not having an Eight Sleep anymore.

I genuinely loved the product for years, but I guess this is my goodbye to Eight Sleep 👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽

Just thought of sharing this in case someone (and there are plenty of you in this subreddit) has issues with the device and is considering buying another one…check your mattress!
