A Smart Sleep HatThe Sleep Hat is the first at home sleep device that monitors your brainwaves in real time and uses a biofeedback loop to help you fall asleep quickly through the use of specially engineered binaural beats.The Sleep Hat is unique from other sleep aids in that it works with your brain's natural structure to slow your brain down and guide you to sleep. How it worksThe hat incorporates Virtual Hammock Technology invented by Dr. Michael Larson (a Mechanical Engineering professor with a Ph.D. from M.I.T.). This technology induces a rhythmic sensation within the brain by utilizing the natural workings of the brains auditory center. Specialized nerves hard-wired in the part of our brain stem called the medial superior olive (MSO) get excited when they are stimulated by signals arriving from our two ears. The rhythmic pulse you hear when wearing the Sleep Hat is actually your brain deciphering the difference in frequency between the two tones that are played into either ear. The Sleep Hat is an all-natural, homeopathic sleep device that takes advantage of cutting edge sleep technology. Unlike sleep trackers, that simply report how poorly you slept, the Sleep Hat is the first sleep gadget to actively help you sleep. Components and AdvantagesThe hat is made of a stretchable and breathable fabric (85% Nylon, 15% Spandex) with built-in sensors and hi-fidelity speakers. The Sleep Hat can be worn with most CPAP masks. The Sleep Hat is the first commercially available sleep device that uses brainwave activity in a biofeedback system to actively help you sleep.The Sleep Hat has been featured on Engadget, Science Dump, Slash Gear and Gadget review. The Sleep Hat was selected as a semi-finalist at the Last Gadget Standing competition at CES Vegas 2015.Please note: The Sleep Hat is not a medical device or a clinical intervention of any kind.

EVERYTHING WRONG W/THIS
so much wrong. its expensive. worked ok for two weeks but then it ceased to help me fall asleep. i think your brain gets used to it. then, 4 months later, it stopped working. After charging it fully (it was powered off), and a few hours later turned on again to use, and no charge! the lithium ion battery cant be replaced, the company has short and strict warranty rules and they know the battery has to be replaced eventually so theyre knowingly ripping people off. you cant open it. the worst part? its fabric and you cannot wash it. they should have thought about that. it gets disgusting and smelly after a while even if your the cleanest person in the world. imagine never neing able to change your pillowcase or wash your hair. its just not realistic and they need to develop it much more before releasing on market. forget this, get the fisher wallace stimulator instead!

May be a good product but not for me.
I read every review of this product. Some were critical others were wonderful. I have not slept well in so long that I was willing to try anything, especially with the assurance of Amazon Prime and free returns. I am having to return the hat because it is simply too small, even though I ordered the largest size. Granted, I have a large head (hat size 7 5/8) but not that large. I tried adjusting the position for a more comfortable fit. I was never able to place the speakers over my ears. The hat was so tight that it gave me a headache within minutes. Needless to say, the hat did not help my sleep. The sound produced by the speakers was higher pitched than I expected, but not annoying. This product may work well if your head is of average size or smaller. My recommendation is to give it a try but order a larger size than you think you need. Good luck. I know that you need some sleep or you would not be reading this.

I love this thing!
I really like this hat. It is very comfortable to wear, does not make your head to hot at night, the material is soft and breathes easy. The headphones in it are comfortable and moveable to fit right over your ears. Very comfortable.Since using the hat, i have gotton a much better sleep at night. I find i dream more (which i love) and wake up more refreshed than without sleeping with it. You can adjust the volume to cancel out surrounding noise as well like a snoring wife (sorry honey!). I really enjoy the hat and it is very comfy and works great!

Good but not great.
Didn't seem to help with getting to sleep but my wife thinks I sleep more quietly. A chin strap might help keep it in place.

Hat vs pills? Hat wins!
I've had issue getting to sleep forever. Since I erroneously happened upon a page for the sleep shepherd, I was interested in giving it a shot; I've tried everything else to no avail.Though it takes some getting used to if you've never slept with anything on your head, it absolutely works. Either that or it's such a good placebo that I don't know the difference, and I don't care. I'm sleeping! I awake feeling well rested! I'm happy with my product!

High pitch tones were annoying - It did not help me relax to sleep.

Doesn't do what it claims to do. Doesn't track your brain rhythms, just your movement.

It's not working for me a friend tried it and it works for him as soon as I get back home from off the road I will be sending it back. Thanks
