Pros
  • These Brooklinen sheets are soft. As stated by the brand, they did get softer with washes.
  • My sheets feel like satin and shimmer like a velvety night sky.
  • Long-staple cotton — less likely to pill and maintain a smooth texture.
  • I upgraded to Pod 5 and it was worth it for me; I wouldn't want to sleep without Eight Sleep now.
  • I don't realize how good it is until I stay in a hotel and miss the temperature control.
  • Heating performance is excellent and cooling is still the hardest thing to replicate with alternatives.
  • Cooling is great, but many users still complain the Autopilot subscription should be included at this price.
Cons
  • Sheets were thinner than they expected.
  • If you don't pull them out of the dryer immediately, they will wrinkle.
  • After moving from Pod 4 to Pod 5, the bed felt like it took longer to cool down.
  • The topper can make the bed feel stiffer, and some users say comfort takes time to adjust.
