There are very, very few things better than that moment you wake up from a great night’s sleep. The difference between tossing and turning all night and waking up well rested impacts your entire day. Lately, my mattress has been getting up there in years and, not surprisingly, I had not been sleeping so well. So when the folks at Eight asked me if I wanted to give their four-layer mattress a try, I figured why not? Boy, how glad I am that I did.

First off, mattress shopping is the worst. In my experience, going into a store and sitting or weirdly laying on one of the showroom mattresses for a minute is not the best way to try them out. That is what makes Eight so cool. They just ship the mattress to your house.

Eight Mattress review. Here is the box the mattress is shipped right to your door in.

Yup, inside this box is a mattress.

So, after bringing the box inside, the wife and I rolled out the mattress – which was pretty easy…

And we put it on the bed in place of the old mattress…

Here is my mattress from Eight on my bed.

And immediately as we put the mattress in its place, someone knew it was time for him to check it out.

My cat helped me review my mattress from Eight Mattress. He really liked sleeping on it.

Sure, I was going to spend seven or eight hours a night on this new Eight Mattress, but Tiki, well he is well known for spending a good 16 to 20 hours a day getting some zzz’s.  So, naturally, he was very thorough…

And, in the end, he approved.

As for me.  It has now been ten days and I am sleeping great. I have found the Eight mattress to be cozy and supportive at the same time and that is because it is not your typical mattress – rather it was made with four layers after a team spent a whopping 1,864,800 hours of research to build the most comfortable mattress possible – which is something that me, my wife, and my all three of cats agree with.

You can go just for the mattress or you can upgrade and get a smart cover along with the mattress which will track your sleep and give each side of the bed the ability to adjust the temperature all while hooking up to your home’s wifi – which, seriously, what a time to be alive.

I dig this mattress a lot. If you would like to check it out, you can enter code SLEEP15 for 15% off here.

Eight is is pretty darn confident you will like your mattress, so they offer a guarantee: If you don’t love it after 100 days, they’ll refund your purchase and come pick it up for free – which is definitely a better way to try it our than one minute sitting on a showroom mattress – and the mattress is super cozy.

But don’t take my word for it…
