| Comfort | The only smart mattress with advanced cooling and heating technology designed to help you fall asleep faster and keep you asleep. | Our unique blend of foam and innerspring core make for a mattress that allows airflow and sleeps cool all night long. Unlike all-foam mattresses, the Aviya hybrid mattress provides core support using an innerspring system where each individual steel coil is wrapped in its own fabric pocket. Springs provide "active support" versus the passive support of foam, literally pushing back to support your body. The result is a more responsive sleep surface with greater comfort no matter what position your body may move to throughout the night. With 800 coils (in queen size) and a full 8" spring depth, our innerspring system provides deeper and more substantial support than the lower quality linked spring systems or 2-3" tall "micro" coils found in other innerspring mattresses. |
| Support | Dual-Zone Cooling & Heating. Independently set each side of the bed to anywhere between 55°F-110°F. Schedule on and off times from the Eight Sleep app. Advanced Sleep Tracking. Individual sleep tracking on each bed side, supporting two sleepers. Metrics include sleep stages, sleep time, toss and turns, and more. | 3" of foam surrounds all edges of the mattress so you can sleep edge-to-edge on the aviya, making our mattress feel bigger than the competitors. We use a perfect blend of high-density foams to provide both comfort and support. This type of high-quality foam is unheard of in almost any mattress, let alone at our prices. |
