Favourite sensor

Got this a week ago and it's already become my favourite sensor. So many situations can be fixed by reliable bed presence detection. I love it! Setup was incredibly easy and it is absolutely reliable so far.

Easy Setup, Reliable Automation

I love these devices. Both SlumberTek and TrampleTek integrated flawlessly with Home Assistant and were simple to add to my automations. Setup was quick, reliability has been solid, and they fit naturally into my daily routines. Exactly the kind of hardware you want when building a smart home.

Perfect for nighttime bed detection

I use this with Home Assistant for detecting when I'm in bed at night. When I get out it raises the accent lighting slightly to find your way and then reduces back down when back in bed. Incredibly reliable and instant. Just got a second one! And — the founder maintains a Discord channel and always jumps in if you had a question. Highly recommend!

Working great with Home Assistant

The bed sensor is working great with Home Assistant. Great product!

Love the device for Home Assistant use

I emailed Raymond about using this for a new and silly use case — to check when my dog was drinking water from the bowl or when it needs to be refilled. He was very prompt and helpful with detailed information. I ordered the device and it was very easy to setup with ESPHome on Home Assistant and I now have automations that work for my use case. Really love what they're building and will keep an eye on future products.

Great product and documentation, highly recommended

Everything arrived well packaged and it was easy to flash the firmware and connect to Home Assistant. I purchased two for both sides of the bed. After watching the videos from the documentation, which were easy to follow, I was able to fine-tune my get-up-out-of-bed detection to be a bit quicker. The defaults are pretty good as is — I just wanted to fine-tune a few things. I had no issues, and possible things of note are covered in the documentation and troubleshooting sections. This product seems to be well made.

Ideal "set it and forget it" presence detection

SlumberTek is the ideal "set it and forget it" solution for presence detection. I've integrated 3 mats into Home Assistant and these devices have been rock solid with regard to both accuracy and uptime reliability, all in a device that's completely local and elegantly concealed. Installation was a breeze using the easy instructions. Customer support is also amazing. I almost never write reviews but I had to take a few minutes to support this American small business. Easy 5 stars!

Game-changers for home and elderly safety

I can't say enough good things about ASC's SlumberTek and TrampleTek products. I started using them to improve the safety and security of my elderly mother and 94-year-old aunt, and the results have exceeded every expectation. Both products integrate beautifully with Home Assistant, making setup and customization a breeze. SlumberTek provides incredibly reliable monitoring — it's been invaluable for ensuring my mom and aunt are resting safely. If they get out of bed at night, or don't return for a while, we get notified immediately. TrampleTek adds an extra layer of security with precise activity detection. Notifications are instant, data is accurate, and the peace of mind it brings is priceless. Highly recommended!

Outstanding product and excellent service

The SlumberTek bed sensor is an amazing product! Setup was very straightforward and hassle free — just be sure to follow the instructions carefully. I was able to get it up and running quickly and even set up an automation for our toddler: if he gets out of his bed, we instantly receive an alert through our home system. SlumberTek integrates seamlessly with Home Assistant. Since I placed a larger order, I received a personal email from Raymond King, the CEO. His communication was excellent. I'll definitely be ordering more.

Great product, easy setup, great customer service

I bought this mat to make some spooky fun for my trick or treaters this Halloween. Setup and integration into Home Assistant took less than 5 minutes. I covered it with another spooky mat to hide the sensor and recalibrated it. It works great, no false triggers and latency is low. Now when guests knock on the door it plays spooky music and lighting effects. Customer service was extremely personal, helpful and friendly. I highly recommend these mats.

Buy the SlumberTek!

The SlumberTek is an amazing product! Raymond worked with me directly to configure my SlumberTek for my setup. The product works seamlessly with Home Assistant and offers a wide range of customizability. I would highly recommend the SlumberTek to anyone who is looking for a solid bed sensor (or couch), and will certainly be purchasing from ASC in the future!

Great device, very reliable so far

The device has been working well in the couple weeks I've had it; I use it to trigger a light to wake me up when I sleepwalk. It is much more functionally flexible and reliable than the alternative bed alarms I tried. I don't think I've had any false negatives, false positives, or dropped connections, which is fantastic. Setup was a little rocky for me — I run HA in docker on a headless Linux server — but watching the setup video in full helped a lot. Great company to deal with too; Raymond clearly cares deeply about his products!

Works perfectly, fantastic customer service!

We communicated several times with owner Raymond, and he was amazing. The mat works exactly as promised, and the customer service was unbelievable. We give this company 5 stars!

Great piece of hardware

The SlumberTek mat is a great piece of technology. I was able to set it up in Home Assistant very quickly, and the process of calibrating it is very intuitive. It even has more advanced settings if you want to fine-tune, but I was able to leave it mostly stock. I tested it on a solid base bed, a box spring, and a mattress directly on the carpeted floor — it worked on all three. I've been able to use it to alert my wife and I when the kids are in and out of bed.

Detection is not stable

Detection keeps reporting present even after I get out of bed. I have done calibration twice. Sensing works if I stay at the bed for a short while, but after a whole night of sleep the sensor keeps staying detected even after everyone is out of bed. I will keep trying to calibrate.

ASC replied

Sathish's review was really helpful — since then we have made firmware improvements and released a troubleshooting video to help increase SlumberTek's accuracy when people get out of bed. Here is the SlumberTek troubleshooting video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIQU2vCFwZY

Working like a charm

I was previously using a Withings sleep mat to trigger nighttime automations in Home Assistant. But since the sensor was provided through the Withings API, it would periodically not work for days. I just replaced that with the SlumberTek and everything worked like a charm! And much faster with the local connection. Exactly what I was looking for.

Works great!

I've struggled to find a reliable solution for detecting if my wife and/or I am in bed. I tried mmWave sensors, DIY pressure sensors, the TrampleTek mat, and finally this one. The SlumberTek works perfectly. I added it to HA without any issues and it's been detecting if someone is in bed really well. I have a 10" memory foam mattress on a box spring.

Simplicity at its finest

I've been lucky enough to test this product for a few weeks now, and after having no issues I quickly ordered another for the other side of my bed. (I also own ASC's TrampleTek mat.) This sensor was extremely easy to set up and integrate into Home Assistant. The device is large enough to easily lay under your mattress and the provided cables have ample length to properly hide the cord. The braided 90-degree connector cable makes tucking into the corner of your bedframe easy. The calibration is just lay in bed with the option turned on. Truly a set-it-and-forget-it device. The team behind the device is also very supportive and constantly making improvements based on user feedback.

Easiest pressure mat to install

Very sturdy and easy to vacuum, it does exactly what the product page says. The easiest pressure mat to install in Home Assistant (previous knowledge of adding devices via ESPHome is an advantage, but not a must). The owner is a cool dude to troubleshoot problems with 🙂

Very pleased with quality and service

Very cool device!! Had some issues setting it up, which were my fault! Raymond could not have been greater — patiently worked with me and got it operating properly. Very pleased with the quality and service!

Worked right out of the box

Worked right out of the box, with setup being seriously less than 2 minutes. Could easily set this up for grandma or any other low-tech person. Doesn't need an app, sensitivity is just right (and adjustable), non-slip base, sturdy material, and a 10 ft USB cable for lots of position flexibility. Even worked off a battery pack. I bought a second one to add to my Home Assistant setup — ESPHome took 5 minutes. Far outshines my flimsy DIY FSR setup in terms of reliable readings and fortitude.

Perfect for nighttime navigation

We were looking for something that could easily turn hallway and bathroom lights off and on at night from the guest room to keep my mother-in-law safe when she visits. The TrampleTek Blue mat fit the bill and has been awesome! We set it right in front of the guest room door — she can wake up in the middle of the night and step on it, lights turn on and illuminate the path to the bathroom, she steps back on it on returning, and lights turn off. Super easy to use and to set up. We will definitely be getting more.
