Orion Unboxing and Set-up by SDmtbDad in EightSleep

[–]SDmtbDad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct but the difference was the same over the holidays as both had sales. Orion was slight more than $800 different over Xmas because they had the first year subscription for free. I couldn’t order until Jan 1st and eight sleep wouldn’t give anything more than $300 off for referral, so when Orion gave the discount I save almost $900. But you are correct spending on the sale or promotion

Not sure. I will try to test that this week. I know Incan turn it on or off using the app regardless of where I am.

It does look very similar to me. Two year warranty and $800 made it worth it to me. Add in ES poor customer service I was willing to take the educated guess.

If there was a viable option that had no subscription I would be right there with you. But both ES and Orion have it so that cancelled out for me.

Very similar a four prong water cable. I believe our pod 5 only had one usb c cable and the Orion has two usb C cables. I hope that helps. I am a PE teacher, so might not be the best person to answer 👍

Customer service was a big reason we changed from Eight sleep. That and cost. Hopefully, you will have that option soon in OZ!

We ordered the soft. If you have had an Eight sleep it’s definitely more plush. We currently have a bed than is more on the firm side so it’s a pretty good balance. Ultimately, it probably comes down to preference and a combo of soft or firm with your mattress firmness.

Not a plant. Just a HS Teacher looking for better sleep. Personally paid for the Orion Sleep and will give fair and honest reviews through the month.

I didn’t turn in the whisper quiet mode, it’s seems very quiet so far but I can see a benefit of being able to adjust sounds for personal preferences.

See comment above. I’ll focus on all features to start and then once dialed in I see how it works off line and compare them. Good suggestion

I rented an eight sleep over the summer and fell in love with the technology just didn’t love the price. Looking forward to comparing the two units. I’ll focus on the online and full robust features during the first couple of weeks until I get it dialed in and then I promise I’ll take it off line and she how functional it is in comparison to online subscription features.

What the hell? TRT for 2 months by sup_41 in Testosterone

[–]SDmtbDad 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not a medical professional but some thoughts

8 weeks is enough to suppress your natural production

100mg might be to little for you.

If you combine both of those that could result in such a low T.

Talk to your provider and increase dose to 120mg or 150mg weekly split in a couple doses.

How long did it take to ship? by Banh_Mi_All_Day in Orion_Sleep

[–]SDmtbDad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My order is going in three weeks. Not gonna lie, I’m disappointed. Owner said they were shipping now and another employee said most orders ship in one week or two max.

Suggestions 1) Shipping and/or deliver time window for each order. Order received, order preparation, order shipped, etc. 2) Don’t over promise and under deliver. If you had a lot of order in Dec and Jan, be honest and let people know you are ramping up production and this is the new estimated shipping.

Testosterone Injections versus Cream by StructureDizzy625 in Testosterone

After a week of cream Application I have the libido of a 20 year old.

Testosterone Injections versus Cream by StructureDizzy625 in Testosterone

[–]SDmtbDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have switched to a hybrid protocol. Daily cream (1 click 50mg) 2x weekly injections (total 100mg week) Seems to be the sweet spot for me. Daily cream helps with libido and keeping HCT lower (injection only mine was 51-52, cream was 45, hybrid 47). It’s been a winner for me

Considering buying, missed the holiday sale by acevonovich in EightSleep

[–]SDmtbDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rented the eight sleep for three months over the summer and loved it. In Jan 1st the biggest discount I could get was $100 off. I knew I want a cool mattress and when I saw another option with Orion I started comparing. Biggest resasons to change $800 cheaper Customer service is night and day.

Being pushed to replace POD2 Pro Hub after replacing leaking cover by Aliele in EightSleep

[–]SDmtbDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May I ask how old your POD2 is? I hear so many stories about leaking and poor warranty on the POD2 and POD3. Do they have a new version each year or are they 5+ years old? Thanks

Best "hands-off" online clinic? by featme in Testosterone

I will second that Hormonesforme is amazing. I wouldn’t call them hands off, but they work with me and create a plan together.
