Manta Pro Sleep Mask - 100 Light Blocking Sleep Mask for Side Sleepers Breathable and Comfortable Spacious Zero

I echo most of what the other reviews have stated: it’s very pricey for what it is, but it also works extremely well. It takes a little while to adjust to your liking, especially if you’ve never worn a sleep mask before. But once you do, it stays on all night and it does offer true blackout. (Although you’ll get a little bit of light bleed if not adjusted over the eyes properly). The first night I tried it, I felt a little bit of pressure and saw some light bleed. But the second night, made a minor adjustment and it fixed everything. The eye cups are comfortable and don’t put any pressure on your face, which is good because you do need to tighten the Velcro strap a bit in order to get no light bleed. Like other reviews have mentioned, the main issue is the price. Not just it being expensive in of itself, but this model specifically preying on side sleepers. As far as I can tell, the only real difference between this model and the standard (cheaper) model is the eye cups taper off at the ends for side sleeping. As a side sleeper myself, it seems unfair to have to pay extra for what is effectively the same thing as the standard model (and yes, I tried, the standard model doesn’t work well with side sleeping). This model also says it supports “accessories,” like being able to replace the standard eye cups with ones that have a cooling gel on them. Not something I’ve tried or will probably bother with, as I don’t feel too hot wearing this. I am giving the product five stars because it ultimately does exactly what it says it does, but the high price might be concerning for some. Read more

I've tried a few sleep masks after I started using them a couple years ago. After using mine for about a week I can say that the Manta Pro stands out head and shoulders above the rest. Yes, it's expensive. But it does make a compelling case. I was used to finding my sleep masks on the floor somewhere when I wake up. I'm not sure if they loosen up and slide off on their own or if I somehow manage to take them off while sleeping. That hasn't happened with the Manta. The strong, infinitely adjustable velcro combined with the gel "squiggle" on the inside of the strap means it stays put all night long even if I move about. The adjustable eye cups are also fantastic. I find that I usually get the most light leakage around my nose, so having two separate eye cups with the ability to space them exactly as necessary and leave a gap for the nose makes the mask more effective and increases its comfort. It took a couple adjustments to get them just so, but once they're where you need them you don't have to think about it again. Perhaps most importantly, it really does deliver on the promise of 100% blackout. Sleeping on my back, my side, or my stomach - no light gets in. One morning I managed to bump a wireless light switch on my headboard reaching for my phone to silence my alarm and turned the lights on to a full brightness setting. I went back to sleep and didn't even know the lights were on until I woke up again and took the mask off to look at the clock. Finally, the Manta Pro is extremely comfortable. It's never felt heavy, or hot, or uncomfortable in the slightest. The tapered eye cups keep it from feeling bulky if you turn your head to the side. Again, it might take you a couple tries to get the right balance of comfy and secure when putting it on, but once you're there you'll be golden. Overall, just a very well thought out and executed eye mask. If good sleep is important to you, the Manta Pro is worth a look. Read more

You can adjust the position of the eye cups to fit your eyes, the entire mask is soft and cups are the right amount squishy to avoid giving me eye/head pain, Velcro connector stays secure in place for sleepers that move around a lot and also wears a bonnet, the Velcro strap in the back and eye cups connecting it to the headband never has snagged my air or bonnets. and the best part is it always blocks 100% of all artificial/natural lighting. I wear this over a bonnet and occasionally use it with over the ear headphones. It has always stayed in place with/without the headphones and/or bonnet. Price might seem steep but OMG it’s worth the investment for the sake of a quality day/nights worth of rest. And with the ability to remove the eye cups it’s even easier to clean & sanitize. With it also comes a travel zipper pouch and foam ear plugs that I found useful while traveling. The color combo is also awesome in my personal opinion. Read more
