Those in the market for a tech-enabled mattress will have new options to consider, as online retailer Eight added four new mattresses to its product line Wednesday, including two new smart mattresses.

Among the new offerings are the Saturn+ and Mars+, “the most technologically advanced mattresses on the market,” according to a press release.

Eight was founded in 2014 as a company that utilizes technology and data to help people sleep better. They launched their Eight Sleep Tracker, a smart mattress cover, in 2015 and their Eight Smart Mattress (now called Jupiter+) in 2016.

The retailer says they used customer feedback and 10 million hours of sleep data to help them create their new line of products.

“At Eight, we are focused on revolutionizing the sleep experience through technology. Our products are developed using studied data from thousands of users,” said Matteo Franceschetti, CEO of Eight, in the press release. “By leveraging data like this and proprietary technology, we’ve been able to engineer innovative products that create the most proven sleep system on the market.”

The Saturn+ and Mars+, which join Eight’s best-selling smart mattress, Jupiter+ (formerly known as the Eight Smart Mattress), to make up the Eight Smart Collection. The Smart Collection starts at $699 and, according to Eight, is the only smart technology bed delivered directly to customers homes in a box.

According to the company, the collection “includes the company’s proprietary technology layer that tracks sleep, manages the temperature of the bed and connects to users’ smart home devices like Amazon Alexa and Nest.”

Eight says the accompanying app (available for iOS and Android) provides feedback to users on each night of sleep.
