5 | Bought on a recommendation from a friend !! Love it | 7 | 5 |
6 | The best addition to my night routine. I’ve bought 3 for family members. We love it! | 10 | 9 |
7 | Service was great. Arrived promptly. Quality excellent. It met all my expectations. | 8 | 7 |
8 | The Nodpod website is very informative and professionally constructed. The products are of the highest quality and are reasonably priced. I never used weighted items for personal comfort, but now they are my go to items to relax and relieve stress. This company gets my highest recommendation. | 10 | 9 |
9 | I have wanted the weighted blanket for some time and when they had the 25% promotion and had to buy it! | 7 | 6 |
10 | Fast shipping, excellent customer service, quality products!! | 8 | 7 |
11 | LOVE this little thing! Super soft, slightly weighted, and perfect for this side sleeper and nap enthusiast! Works perfectly and now I can’t live without it! | 10 | 9 |
12 | A night mask that works! And mini blanket great for little extra comfort. | 8 | 7 |
13 | I finally found the PERFECT eye pillow-thanks! | 9 | 7 |
14 | Great products and quick shipping. Love the pad and the eyemask. | 9 | 8 |
15 | 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. | 6 | 6 |
16 | A good website | 7 | 5 |
17 | GREAT product! I’m getting more and better sleep than ever!!! Accurate item description. Awesome price. Excellent shipping speed. Will order from them again! | 10 | 9 |
18 | The product arrived on time and helps us sleep comfortably. Great sleep mask! | 9 | 8 |
19 | I’m very disappointed in the weight. I expected pressure on my face from the advertisements. It’s nothing more than a blindfold. A very expensive blindfold. The silicone beads provide no weight so, I’m not sure how it’s advertised as a weighted blanket for the face. So disappointed. | 3 | 4 |
20 | I always enjoy a mask. I thought this would be nice. However I tend to move around at night and it won’t stay on. What’s the trick? | 6 | 5 |
21 | I love my Nodpod sleep mask. It helps me to get a more restful sleep. | 9 | 8 |
22 | Easy website to navigate and make purchase, also fast delivery! I love the weighted eye mask so much I had to order the blanket and am very excited to receive! I can’t go to sleep without the mask now, it’s perfect weight and puts me to sleep in mins. I will be buying these for Christmas gifts this year! | 10 | 9 |
23 | This is the second NodPod I’ve purchased because the first was a hit and my wife and I needed our own so we didn’t fight over the first! I got the second one in Sage and it’s so pretty and just as comfortable, helpful and well made as the first. Highly recommend this for any neurodivergents out there that need some help sleeping or calming your mind. Great for naps and meditations! | 10 | 9 |
24 | 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. | 6 | 5 |

29 | The experience was ease of use. Fast shipping. Great price. | 8 | 7 |
30 | I sleep on my back. This doesn’t stay on. Pressure points don’t provide relief. | 5 | 5 |
31 | This was the best gift I ever received. It has really impacted my being ableto fall asleep. I even got it for a gift for someone else who struggles with sleep and they love it too! | 10 | 9 |
32 | LITERALLY SO COMFY, it helped me fall asleep way quicker than usual. I always have trouble falling asleep at night but this is a game changer for sure. | 9 | 8 |
33 | I buy few of them is the beat gift of wellness to any friend. 👍👍👍 | 8 | 6 |
34 | I am in love! Finally a solution for small heads/faces and side sleepers. The light weight on my eyes is comforting without smashing my eyeballs. Having two sides gives me great options when it's hot or cold. The vibrant color is so fun and easy to find when I unpack my suitcase or lose it in by bed. Thank you for finally creating a solution for someone who is so sick of trying every eye mask on the market. | 10 | 9 |
35 | I don’t go to sleep without my nodpod! Better sleep is happening, no doubt. | 10 | 9 |
36 | When I feel exhausted, I’ll can count on my Nodpods to make me feel relaxed and comfortable. Great product. | 9 | 8 |
37 | I love my nodpod!!!!! I use it every night. I think it really helps me fall asleep. | 10 | 9 |
38 | I love my nodpod!! At first I thought it wouldn’t be heavy enough but it’s perfect!!! Love it | 10 | 9 |
39 | I love how a weighted blanket feels but always get way overheated. The nodpod is a great solution! Although I feel someone larger than me might feel like its not enough (I'm 5'1"). | 8 | 7 |
40 | Love this for my whole family. Works so well on pain, inflammation, anxiety and getting warmed up or cooled down. On my Christmas list for my whole family. | 9 | 8 |
41 | I will start by saying that I really love the weighted feel, soft fabric (on both sides) and the fact that it lays perfectly over your eyes no matter what each time. But my one big complaint is that it doesn't filter out all of the light, and I'm not talking about light that may enter from the edges/corners that are not completely flat on your face...I mean light still enters through the mask. | 8 | 7 |
42 | I thought this was a gimmick until I used it and slept through the night, first time in weeks! I ended up buying one to keep at our vacation house and one to travel with too. | 10 | 9 |
43 | Initial purchase was for my mother who raved about it so much her sister HAD to have one as well. I am unable to explain the calming, soothing effects this weighted covering provides. Shipped timely and arrived as described. | 9 | 8 |
44 | I purchased my nodpod to use at work. It’s great to have on my lap while working in my office, but I’d ask that this company consider making nodpods for plus size people as it slips off often due to my lap being a little smaller and my tummy being a little bigger than normal. I do love the color that I got (palm green) and I like that there’s a warm side and a cooling side. | 8 | 7 |
45 | We love our NODPODs. This is the second time we have ordered them. We use our first set for travel now . Just the right amount of pressure on eyes to help sleep so GOOD!! | 10 | 8 |
46 | Love my nod pod. Can't sleep without it. Highly recommend it to anyone who has sleep problems. | 10 | 9 |
47 | I have always been very satisfied with your beloved products. I got my first nodpod 5 years ago and my husband plus our teen son use them now. They wash well and dry quick. I can't sleep without mine! | 10 | 9 |

52 | Love love love. I am able to get a good night sleep! | 10 | 9 |
53 | Absolutely love my nodpod. Any time I go away I always have to bring it with me. Recommend 100% | 10 | 8 |
54 | Can't wait to give this gift to my husband! | 9 | 7 |
55 | This is the most clever idea anyone could ever come up with. It’s so relaxing and actually stays in place while I sleep. My granddaughter wants me to get her one cause she loves mine. Thank you to nodpod for such a creative idea! | 10 | 9 |
56 | My package still hasn't arrived and it's been a month | 2 | 2 |
57 | It helps me to relax and decompress. I love it! | 9 | 8 |
58 | Love my nodpod.!!! 💜 Didn't know I needed it until now... Use it every night. | 10 | 9 |
59 | Thanks to the hurricane, my order has been stuck at the post office in Louisiana got two weeks now! No fault of NodPod’s, but a bummer either way! | 2 | 2 |
60 | My daughter gave me one but my dog chewed it up. Tried to sleep without it for a few nights. Didn’t sleep as well and ordered a new one. Love it. | 8 | 7 |
61 | I absolutely love my non-pod! I’ve gotten it for several people as a gift as well. I think the weight of it helps me get back to sleep in the middle of the night as well as helping to block out light. I also like to put the end of the flap over my ear to block out noise. I highly recommend it! | 10 | 9 |
62 | A great alternative to black-out window coverings. Very pleasant to use, too. | 9 | 8 |
63 | My husband loves it! He got to have extra hours of sleep during his time working night shift last week! | 9 | 8 |
64 | Overall, I love my nodpod! I use it every night. If they ever make changes there is two things I would like to see, first offer different weights. I personally would like one that's slightly heavier then what they currently offer. Second, I wish they could figure out a way to have the nodpod stay cold a little longer, I store it in the freezer but the cold only lasts about 10 minutes. Overall I highly recommend nodpod!!! | 9 | 8 |
65 | Love the product, we used for a charity fundraiser and it has been well received. Thanks again your are the best!! I also personally use the nod pod and it lulls you into a deep and peaceful sleep where you arise refreshed for the day's challenges. | 10 | 9 |
66 | I received my nodpod within days of placing my order. I have terrible headaches and hoped this product might help to block light. It is so much more than that. Weighted just perfectly and I love that you can put it in the freezer. Will buy more for family! | 10 | 9 |
67 | I love it 🥰. Have used it every night since I purchased it | 10 | 9 |

72 | This thing is so SO good! Love it - just enough weight although when I have a bad 'eye' headache (where the pain is right behind my eyes) I would love just a little more weight. | 8 | 7 |
73 | I work nights. I'm in love with my #nodpod sleepmask. No elastic and no velcro so my locs are good. Covers my eyes and ears! | 10 | 9 |
74 | I can not review the product since I have yet to receive it. I was notified over a week ago it was being shipped and the last time I tracked it it had even left the warehouse!! At this point don’t know when I will get. My card has already been charged!!! | 1 | 1 |
75 | Love it - took to it like a baby. Was worried it might be hot, but did not find that to be so. | 9 | 8 |
76 | Never arrived. No up to date tracking Info. I keep getting pestered to review the product but I never got it so.....refund? | 1 | 1 |
77 | Love these! They help me zonk out right away! | 10 | 9 |
78 | I received this as a gift and really enjoy them! They arrived promptly and the quality is great! | 9 | 8 |
79 | So far, my Nodpod has given me some of the fastest and most relaxing sleep since quarantine started! I used to use a regular sleep mask that was a little too small to cover my eyes and put pressure on them, but the nodpod works so much better and is so versatile. | 10 | 9 |
80 | I love this thing!!! Seriously improved my sleep and it’s so comfortable. Stays put and blocks all light. | 10 | 9 |
81 | I wanted to love the Nodpod more than I do. I don't understand how you are supposed to lay down with it wrapped around your head as it gets very chunky and uncomfortable. They need a better design for this position. Mainly it just falls off every time I move my head in bed. I probably wouldn't recommend it to a friend. | 5 | 5 |
82 | Super light weight and really uncomfortable and for how much I paid for an eye cover you think it would be way better. Just not a fan. | 4 | 4 |
83 | The beads over the temple were very uncomfortable | 4 | 4 |
84 | Comfortable and light blocking! Convenient to carry places. | 9 | 8 |
85 | 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. | 10 | 9 |
86 | 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. | 10 | 9 |
87 | Stays on, knots me out and keep the light away. Better than many others I’ve tried. Invest! | 10 | 9 |
88 | I LOVE this. The only reason it’s not a 5-star is because I think it would be awesome if they were cooling. But I recommend them to anyone with trouble sleeping or anxiety! | 9 | 8 |
89 | One of the coolest things ever invented! My nodpod helps me block out any light and get the best sleep I’ve had in ages. | 10 | 9 |

94 | I LOVE my nodpod! It is the perfect weight - it doesn't make you feel trapped or claustrophobic at all. I don't usually tie it around my head but just let it lay across my eyes and forehead. The second I put it over my eyes I'm out like a light. It's also amazing at blocking out early sunlight in the mornings. It's like a personal blackout curtain for your eyes. Highly, highly recommend this product! | 10 | 9 |
95 | Nodpod is amazing! I bought one for myself and two friends and we all use it every night! | 10 | 9 |
96 | Loving my nodpod! I fall asleep much faster now, so easy for me to relax once I put it on. Thanks! | 10 | 9 |
97 | Amazing! I have severe chronic headaches and the gentle pressure of nodpod has helped me fall asleep faster each night. I highly recommend this! | 10 | 9 |
98 | I suffer from headaches due to multiple concussions. After using the nodpod I am waking up headache free! Thank you nodpod! | 10 | 9 |
99 | The nodpod is much smaller than it looks in the picture and is soft but bumpy on the sides of your head. It is comfortable and light but does not block out light completely. I got the grey one, I would not purchase another. | 6 | 5 |
100 | 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! | 9 | 8 |
101 | 0 | 0 | |
102 | I love it! Helps me fall asleep quickly and stay asleep throughout the night! | 10 | 9 |
103 | This wrap definitely helps me sleep better, but the 'weighted' factor is very minimal, hence the 4 stars, rather than 5. | 6 | 6 |
104 | I love NodPod so much I've bought 5 more as gifts! | 10 | 9 |
105 | It was fine. I purchased to help with headaches. I would honestly like a little more weight. It’s a good product | 6 | 6 |
106 | I love the nodpod! The beads they use are not to heavy, so don’t worry about it leaving any marks on your face or indentations. I also got the purple one and it looks exactly like the picture online. Overall it does really help me get fast to sleep in a couple of minutes of having it on. | 9 | 8 |
107 | Love my nodpod! | 10 | 9 |
108 | I love this product, however, one of the seams came undone and all the “beads” are now in the end. I have been stoked about the product for a little over a month, so I am bummed this happened already. | 7 | 6 |
109 | Such a simple thing that dramatically improved my sleep. I find elastic eye covers obnoxious as they pull my hair, this is such a simple alternative. | 9 | 8 |

111 | I Bought 2 as Christmas Gifts for Both My Daughter's, At Their Request, Who Both Have Severe Allergies and Sinus Issues.Ordering was Easy and Received Them Very Quick. | 10 | 9 |
112 | Only giving a 4 because when I have bad migraines, I sometimes wish the beads were even heavier. It’s perfect for everyday use, not just headache sufferers. I never got in on the weighted blanket craze, but this weighted eye mask has me believing the hype. It keeps my eyes from wandering when trying to go to sleep and calms me down. Great buy. | 8 | 7 |

117 | SUCH A AMAZING AND RELAXING PRODUCT. I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN BETTED SLEEP | 10 | 9 |
118 | Super quick shipping and user friendly website. I am obsessed with my nodpod. I sleep with it on every night and even when I take naps. I was worried that it was going to crush my nose, but it doesn’t! And no light comes through. I’m so happy I ordered this! | 10 | 9 |
119 | Guys. This changed my life. I work nights and needed something besides blackout curtains and melatonin. It comforts me and helps me wind down. It’s so soft! | 10 | 9 |
120 | It’s not heavy enough for me , and I wish it stayed cool longer . | 7 | 6 |
121 | Love my nodpod. Blocks those little pesky power lights all over my room so it's totally dark, can still turn my head without it falling off and it's not strapped, can open my eyes under it. I'm hooked!! Have given several of them as gifts and my friends like them too. | 10 | 9 |
122 | I bought this hoping it would help with headache relief. Thankfully I haven’t had a headache to try it with yet, but I’m already reaching for it whenever I lay down. It’s very comforting. | 9 | 8 |

Source: Trustpilot (NodPod)•Coverage: 122 reviews•Snapshot: Sep 30, 2025•Review dates: May 24, 2023 → Sep 24, 2025•Metrics: sentiment (0–10), theme frequencies•Details in Methodology
Methodology
- Preprocessing: De-duplication (exact/near duplicate detection), language filtering (English), PII redaction, light normalization (lowercasing, punctuation).
- Sentiment: A model assigns polarity per review; we map this to 0–10 (higher = more positive) and compute the mean across reviews. Outliers are lightly clipped; no length weighting (long reviews don’t count more than short ones).
- Themes: We embed review text, cluster semantically similar snippets, and label clusters with an LLM. Reviews can belong to multiple themes (multi-label). Frequencies are the share of reviews mentioning each theme.
- Benchmarking: “Top 0.7%” is a percentile rank vs our internal Trustpilot corpus of brand–review datasets from a comparable period; percentiles refresh on a set cadence.
- Reliability: We report n (sample size), show distributions where helpful, and note biases (public-review skew, theme overlap). Confidence intervals for the mean sentiment are available upon request.
- Limitations: AI models can miss nuance; sarcasm/idioms may be imperfectly scored; clustering can drift as new data arrives; this is a snapshot at the stated date.
