In a race like the Tour de France, the days are long and intense. Having a cool, comfortable sleep, and the same type of bed to return to every night, makes a huge difference in how you feel. Somnus Lab helps you disconnect, rest well, and wake up ready to race again the next day.

Elite sport highlights needs that are universal. Sleep and recovery are critical for our athletes, but they are also fundamental to how people function, feel, and perform in everyday life. For us, it is important to work with partners that bring real quality, credibility, and innovation to the team environment.

Nate Wilson
Head of Performance, EF Pro Cycling

Sleep is when the body’s recovery processes are at their strongest. Anything we can do to optimize and add consistency to the sleep environment is a massive help, in a sport where the sleep environment changes day to day. Somnus Lab allows us to have that consistency and have a strong impact on maintaining optimal body temperature overnight, which ultimately enhances sleep and enhances recovery.

Sandra Näslund
Olympic gold medalist and Ski Team Sweden Skicross athlete

At this level, every detail matters, and recovery is part of the training. What I like about Somnus Lab is that this is not just a traditional sponsorship. They are building something genuinely innovative around sleep and recovery, with a strong science-based and technical approach. That makes it highly relevant in elite sport, where small details can have a big impact.

Overall, I love it. The Somnus base unit feels very well designed, and the pad is impressive. Most importantly, the system does what I need it to do: it helps me sleep better by regulating body temperature. The app is intuitive and well designed, and the unit is impressively quiet. As with any beta product, there have been bugs along the way. That said, the team has been very responsive to my bug reports and has fixed issues at what I consider a remarkably fast pace. Managing several nightly stages felt like more complexity than I needed. One thing that took getting used to [FIXED NOW]: the app doesn't display absolute target temperatures like a standard thermostat. Instead, it uses a relative scale from −15 to +15. verall, the hardware feels solid, the software is improving rapidly, and the team behind it is clearly paying attention to user feedback.

Overall very pleased. The cooling and heating performance is impressively fast, and I am sleeping incredibly well! The setup is high-quality and functions perfectly. I love the utility of the independent side controls—it’s a great 'set and forget' system for anyone looking for serious sleep optimization. If you want performance, this is it.

The setup was straightforward and the comfort is excellent—the tubing is much better hidden and the mattress feels robust. I love the utility of the physical buttons, offline mode, and no required subscription. It’s a high-value system with a genuine human touch in support.

I've been beta testing the Somnus and long story short, I'm very impressed with the product. Purely local control means WiFi issues or server outages won't brick the unit, and physical power buttons on the side mean you don't have to fetch your phone. My sleep has absolutely improved—your bed feels like the ‘cool side of the pillow’ all night. Even with NYC’s bonkers weather, the Somnus has kept me comfortable at both ends of the spectrum.

The hardware is very solid with impressive performance headroom, and the cover is very pleasant and comfortable to lay on. Most importantly, the team communicates exceptionally well and actually listens to feedback. If you’re looking for a better system with genuine support and high-quality utility, this is the one.

I’ve used alternative units for years. After living with both machines, the Somnus is the better product. The cooling power gets noticeably colder, and it offers redundant physical controls—if your internet drops, you still adjust temperature normally. Setup and maintenance are genuinely easier, and the cover itself is significantly lighter. The headline for most people is no subscription; Somnus does not gate core functionality behind an annual fee. As an ultrarunner, sleep recovery matters to me in concrete ways. Body cooling drives time in deep sleep, and the subjective recovery curve has been better here. If you're shopping cooling covers and don't want to pay an annual subscription to keep your bed working, Somnus is the one I'd recommend.

I’m late 40s and unhappily in peri-menopause. In recent months hot flushes at night have been brutal. My sleep has significantly improved after 2 weeks with Somnus. I find that a steady max cold works best for me, whereas my husband likes his side warm at first then cooler when it’s time to sleep—the sleep stages feature works great for this. Finally, I am currently full of cold and by popping the turbo on, I’ve been able to adjust the bed temperature quickly to match my fluctuating fevers.

In terms of day-to-day use, the system has been working reliably for the most part. The interface is easy to understand, and the general experience feels smooth and well-designed. A few issues to note: connection issues affected the consistency of the data being recorded initially, but technical support was responsive and it has been much more stable since. One minor issue I've noticed is that occasionally some nights are not logged or recorded properly. That said, these issues have been relatively small compared to the overall experience. At this stage, I'm satisfied with how it's performing.

The pad is soft, you can't feel any tubes. After we got it dialed in, we started enjoying it a lot. Waking up naturally and with energy. During the winter I'll have the bed start out at +8, hop into a warm bed, and it automatically starts cooling down. No more shivering as I got into a cold bed in the winter, GREAT! New features coming out all the time via the app to make it more user friendly (Somnus team taking active feedback and knocking out features quickly). Passionate founder for the product and for sleep. I'm having a hard time coming up with cons. If you are looking for temperature regulation on your bed, this is a phenomenal product.

One of the most important features for me compared with others is the POD itself has buttons to change temperature and even the mattress has it so it can be changed from the bed and even if there's some power outage it will still have the local way to change it in the POD which makes a huge difference and would avoid all the mess during those outages and some connections fails during the storms in my country last year. The sleep track was working and quite aligned with my Heart Rate from my Apple Watch, Whoop, Oura and Sleep AI lamp so all other 4 sources said it was well measured, zero issues there. Most importantly, you can tell they’re actively listening to users and improving the product.

The pad itself was not smelling or anything, just what I hoped for. The first night was quite cool, as there was no sweating. The effect is really noticeable earlier due to the dense pipe layout. 12°C really helps in those hot summer nights—it can’t be cool enough! Since we have two dogs, the pad withstands their scratching and trampling. The station and the mattress pad feel pretty premium, and the effect is really noticeable earlier due to the dense pipe layout. Compared to other brands, it's still a better price and does not require a subscription. The app is pretty good and the devs are listening to feedback.

I tracked my sleep with Whoop and Samsung Galaxy Watch—both showed an improvement in my deep sleep of about 30 minutes after using the Somnus Pad. The setup was quite easy and with no hurdles. The app is really helpful and easy to use. What impresses me the most is that the Somnus Lab is really quiet, which was very important for me due to having a light sleep.

My deep sleep used to be interrupted by overheating and waking up in a pool of sweat—not anymore! I woke up feeling refreshed and ready to go. The sleep improvement is better than I could have imagined—not only for me but also for my wife, who wasn't even thinking about improving her quality of sleep. We’ve both seen a massive difference.

I compared my Somnus Sleep Score data against my Oura Ring for the same night—the numbers were very similar. The Somnus sensor is not just a ‘toy’; it provides usable data for tracking heart rate variability (HRV), breathing, and sleep phases. It’s a serious tool for anyone who takes recovery and biohacking seriously... The noise level is one of the biggest positive surprises. It is completely quiet, only producing a minor, white-noise-like sound similar to a fan running on low speed. It’s virtually silent, which is essential if you are a light sleeper.

I have been beta testing the Somnus Lab system for just over three months.I highly recommend the product, particularly because the people behind the company clearly care very strongly about the quality, and are unbelievably receptive to community feedback. With Somnus, set up was fast, easy, and self explanatory. The cooling function is sufficient at keeping me cool. Even in turbo mode, I have noticed the sound sounds more like white noise, plus you can control the temp with haptic buttons on the side of the bed, which is awesome. The app opens much faster than I remember alternative ones opening, and my Somnus has not disconnected from my WiFi a single time. I currently recommended Somnus to anyone interested in a sleep system like this. Its hardware is comparable or better, the team is fantastic, and the support behind the product is unmatched.

Unboxing the Somnuslab Sleep Pad was a satisfying experience. It was easy to set up, and the pad itself looks premium and well-designed. The dual-zone functionality works well, and it feels much more consistent in how it regulates temperature across the mattress, providing a stable and comfortable temperature. One of the most important factors for me is noise—and this is where Somnuslab truly excels. It is extremely quiet and never disturbs my sleep. It has a few improvements I would like to see: the water tanks are built-in—removable tanks would make refilling easier, and the internal filters were somewhat tricky to position correctly. Overall, we are very pleased with both the product and the outstanding customer service.

I am the 'tech guy' in my friend group—all big purchases I make are the result of thorough research on the product and the market surrounding it. The Somnus unit is the core and the brain of the system, and it looks more like a piece of furniture than a gaming PC. This has a better girlfriend/wife approval factor for sure. It really does its job at keeping me cold and it is very quiet; I can barely hear the pump or the fans. The best thing of it all: No mandatory subscription. All features, including sleep tracking, are included in the price. I really like the team, the spirit, and the device itself.

Impressive results: 45 mins more sleep and wake time slashed in half! The unit is incredibly quiet and maintains the bed's original comfort perfectly. As a biochemistry nerd focused on longevity, I value the ease of setup and real-world performance. Somnus Lab is the missing piece in my sleep optimization toolkit.

I've been using Somnus for almost a month. Overall I think it's a great product. The haptic buttons are fantastic. I actually don't use the app anymore, because clicking the button is so convenient. The tracking function is super fast and easy to get up and running, and the noise level is totally acceptable. As for customer service, they are very responsive. If you look closely, you can see the lines on the mattress topper, but it's not bad. The cooling power is a bit too much for me, so I had to adjust it a little warmer. There is some room for improvement in the app UI, which could be more intuitive. But they push updates frequently, so I'm not too worried. If you're on the fence about getting a cooling bed without a subscription model, Somnus is a very solid choice.

I've always had a tough time sleeping... The Somnus sleep pad has been far and away the most effective tool for my sleep. Being able to cool the bed at bedtime and warm it for scheduled wake-up times has helped me fall asleep way faster and naturally phase out of my REM cycle to wake up feeling refreshed and alert. The hardware feels very high-end. The noise levels are also very very minimal... The mattress topper doesn't have any lumps where the water tubes are, which is great. So grateful for my Somnus sleep pad!!
