Overall, great mask I love the mask, just wish it didn't need to be tied in the back. Velcro or stretchy/adjustable fabric would be much more convenient. Also, what is the little hole on the side for? It looks like there's supposed to be a button that goes in it or something, but unless mine is defective, I don't have a button and the hole seems useless. For those who also use the mask to keep out light...get black. I got the purple one and it does not keep like out. Overall, great purchase and I will continue to use, just a few suggestions for improvement.

Awesome way to get a good sound sleep Awesome way to get uninterrupted sleep. Wish I knew about it a long time ago. Never slept more soundly. Love how it fits so comfortably on my face and just the right amount of gentle pressure on my eyes which makes me feel so relaxed. No need to but darker curtains; all you need NodPod. Planning to buy some as gifts for friends and family.

Sleepy-time Essential I got this as a surprise for my husband. He has a hard time falling asleep and has used many different options to try and block out the light, blankets, pillows, even soft t-shirts. He has a larger head, so face masks were never comfortable. The nodpod has become an instant essential in our nighttime routine. He even took it with him on a business trip. Well worth the price!

I've been sleeping without waking up… I've been sleeping without waking up for the first time in YEARS since starting to use my Nodpod. It has made a huge difference, and I wake up feeling rested which hasn't happened in a long time. The Nodpod is a good weight, and I like having the two fabrics to choose from depending on how hot/cold I am.

Thoughts on the product & nodpod.com experience Thoughts on the product: Eye pods were not as comfortable, and more intrusive than I hoped. I found the eye mask to be a little scratchy and irritating on my face. I also didn't find the polyester "cool" side to be much different than the cotton side. Both felt warm on my face. Perhaps room conditions were a factor as it was a warm night, and was looking for something more cooling and less noticeable on my face. Thoughts on nodpod.com experience: They encourage trial, touting a "guarantee" that says you'll love their products are fully refundable. What they don't mention is that they won't cover return shipping. To ship my order back in the box they sent cost $40 -- nearly half the cost of my order.
