Tempur Sealy Unveils Tempur-Ergo Smart Base at LV Market

Combined with adaptive Tempur-Pedic mattresses, the Tempur-Ergo Smart Base creates a completely-integrated system with personalized sleep analytics and coaching plus a responsive foundation that can now automatically respond to snoring and may help people sleep more comfortably. 

"Tempur-Pedic has a rich history of delivering the best options for transformative sleep, and we continue that tradition today," said Scott Thompson, Tempur Sealy president and CEO. "With the advent of our Tempur-Ergo Smart Base Collection with Sleeptracker technology, and our recently-launched Tempur-breeze line of mattresses, we are tackling two of the biggest obstacles that prevent people from getting a good night's sleep:

The new bases automatically sense and respond to sleepers during the night to deliver the following benefits:

• Automatic Snore Detection and Response: Discrete sensors automatically detect snoring vibrations and the base silently responds by adjusting a sleeper's head position, without having to wake either the person snoring or their sleeping partner. 
• Customized Sleep Report: Each morning, sleepers receive a personalized sleep report and sleep score, based on a range of bio, sleep and environmental metrics. These include heart and breathing rates; time spent awake, in REM, light and deep sleep phases, and sleep efficiency. 
• Personalized Sleep Coaching: By infusing AI to analyze this data, each sleeper receives personalized insights and advice on sleep strategies to help them achieve deeper, more rejuvenating sleep. 
• Smart Home Connectivity: With their compatible Google Home and Amazon Alexa devices, people can use simple voice commands to adjust the position of their base, get their daily sleep reports and receive personalized sleep tips.

The collection consists of two options and will be first available at Tempur-pedic stores across North America in August 2019, with expanded retail availability planned for later this year and in 2020:

• The Temour-Ergo Smart Base will retail for $1,799 (queen-size). 
• The Tempur-Ergo Extend Smart Base features additional benefits, including four massage zones, PerfectSeat technology to optimize the mattress shape for a more natural position in which to relax, Pillow Tilt and increased weight capacity, will retail at $2,199 (queen-size).
