Product Description
Sleep is paramount to peak performance – both physical and mental
It is essential to get enough sleep, but sleep should also be structured properly and contain enough REM sleep for the recovery of the mind, and DEEP sleep for the recovery of the body. EMFIT QS+ACTIVE records total amount and structure of sleep, the percentages of recuperating REM and DEEP sleep.
EMFIT QS+ACTIVE also records heart rate, breathing rate, and movement activity during the entire night. Overall, it enables you to find sleep affecting patterns and improve them. Results of training or lifestyle changes can be studied with the long-term trends feature.
Ensure you recover enough at night
EMFIT QS+ACTIVE is a powerful and automatic sleep and recovery tracker that will help you take control over your health and wellness, giving you more energy to shine in everything you do.
Automatic measuring
There’s absolutely nothing to wear and no need to turn equipment on and off. When you go to sleep it automatically starts measuring and in the morning after you leave the bed, the data is available for deep insight from your smartphone, tablet or computer.
Heart-Rate-Variability Shows Your Recovery and Readiness
EMFIT QS+ACTIVE is the world’s most sophisticated ballistocardiograph. With incredible resolution, it records heart contractions, breathing and body movement bio-signals.
EMFIT QS+ACTIVE is the only contact-free health monitor on market that can provide recovery and readiness analysis based on whole night heart-rate-variability. This is why professional athletes, triathlonists, cyclists, football players and other sports enthusiasts have chosen to use EMFIT QS+ACTIVE.
Medical grade under-mattress sensor
The electro-active material itself is self-biased and does not use any power. Only the small electronics placed on the floor uses electricity and has the wireless WI-Fi transceiver. Under-mattress placement ensures longevity for many years use without need to regular replacement.

The next question people ask is: are the metrics accurate? I also wear an Oura Ring 24/7. It, like the Emfit QS, tracks all the metrics mentioned above. When comparing the results of the two devices, while not matching exactly, show a very clear correlation. They are identical in the sense that when one shows a lower HRV or high HR, the other device has recorded the same trend. Then you have to look at the results provided by the QS and compare it to what you think should be happening, I've found they gel. For example, I was in a bad bike vs car accident in April 2018 that knocked me out of triathlon training for about 5 months while I recovered. During that period the Emfit recorded much high HRV values while recording high resting heart rate values as I lost fitness and aerobic conditioning. Weeks after returning to training, HRV numbers began to drop while my resting HR lowered as well.
I have tried several different sleep trackers and HRV/HR measuring tools. This and my Oura Ring are 1 and 1a on the list of effective devices. If you are looking for a hands-off biohacking/recovery measuring/sleep tracking tool I would highly recommend this.
Let me cover some of the negatives. I had, and others have reported, some connection issues with their home WiFi. I did find it quirky when I first set it up and had difficulty getting it to connect. Once connected though, I have had no drops and there has not been a single night that data was not recorded. Next, there is no option to place it in airplane mode. There is no internal memory to record during the night and then upload the data later. The device it constantly reaching out to your WiFi every six seconds and uploading data while you sleep. For some concerned about having a WiFi signal that close to you every night, this may not be the device for you. Having said that, the Emfit QS does come with a long power cord and a transmitting device that you can place up to six feet from your bed. Nevertheless, a semi-easy update to this device would be a 2.0 model with internal memory that can turns itself off, record your data all night and then turn on and upload the recorded data once you out of bed. Lastly, if you spend a lot of time in your bed, say watching TV or reading before you sleep, the device night confuse it with you attempting to fall asleep unsuccessfully. I read for at least 30 minutes before I turn the lights off. I found that if I just get out of bed to check if the doors are locked after reading, the device recognizes my sleep patterns enough that it does not record the extra time.
A couple of other side notes. I have a Tuff N Needle memory foam mattress. It provides no difficulty in getting any bio-metric signals through it. It also does not pick up my wife's signals when she sleeps, even if we are up against each other.
Overall it has proved to be a solid device that provides good, valid sleep and recovery data.

Overall it has proved to be a solid device that provides good, valid sleep and recovery data.
Setup was super simple. I was able to connect it to WiFi simply by pressing the button on my router, then using a paper clip on the Emfit QS. My sleep info gets sent to the internet automatically and reliably and it is always there in my browser when I wake up. The only problem I had with setup was I have a very thick mattress with no box so I basically had to slice my mattress open and put the sensor in under the mattress pad.
It gives you a lot of information, from which you can piece together how you're sleeping. However, as I found, you cannot rely 100% on the total sleep and sleep stage classification. The accuracy of these numbers is questionable. For instance, my child was lying in my bed reading for 2 hours and apparently not only did he get 1.5 hours sleep, but he got 1/2 hour of REM sleep! Pretty good for being awake!
Having said that, I have reason to believe the toss & turn data is accurate since the sensor for this is pretty basic so you can use this data to clearly figure out when no sleep is happening and do the math to figure out your total sleep. So in order to keep track of my sleep I need to analyze the data, add up the numbers, and keep a separate spreadsheet. Not everybody's willing to do this, but it works for me (so far).
I am planning to buy a Fitbit Alta HR so I can compare results.
If you lay in bed for a few hours before going to sleep the emfit will track those hours and even present data to you saying you were in deep sleep during those hours. Doesn't matter if you were attentively playing games on your phone or not; it's all tracked. Fitbit tracks this all perfectly while my sense is very accurate as well. The emfit though, says I go through deep sleep when I'm playing games... Very misleading.
Because it is inaccurate when I lay in bed before falling asleep my plan was to make sure to go to bed like a zombie ready to fall asleep within a few minutes. It helped for a little but then I realized that I need to get straight out of bed for the statistics to be accurate as well. The heart rate variability says in the tooltips that it tracks the first 90 minutes of falling asleep and the 90 minutes prior to waking up to get the statistic. If the sleep tracking is inaccurate then obviously you get inaccurate data. Sure, I can go to right to sleep right when I get to bed but waking up and getting out of my bed right when my first alarm sounds? That's another story. I set up 5 alarms and I usually feel ready only on the 4th alarm. So basically, that would mean as I lay in bed for those 4 alarms I'm adding inaccurate information toward the heart rate variability statistic (about 20 minutes worth) every time.
The emfit qs is only for people that fall asleep within a few minutes and get up at the first sound of their alarm. Otherwise you just get a load of inaccurate information at this moment in time. They do have updates in which they say they make their product better but honestly it's not even worth wasting electricity on atm. I really regret buying this (it received a good recommendation from a friend) but I don't think they even looked into how it tracks your body. I was thinking about giving an extra star because I have hope that they will get a better sleep tracking algorithm (or ask fitbit or sense to do it properly...) but I just can't believe my sense, which again does not touch me at all, gives me much more accurate information in terms of sleep tracking. I hope people that have already reviewed this product read my review and change their ratings as well. All these 5 stars makes me think the reviews are definitely skewed by bias. It just is not a good product AT ALL with the inaccurate sleep tracking.

Für die Auswertungen der Daten gibt es keine App, sondern ausschließlich eine Website. Die passt sich aber den Smartphone- und Tablet-Formaten an, so dass man gut damit zurechtkommen kann.
Zu den einzelnen Auswertungen gibt es kurze Erklärungen, die aber nicht immer umfassend genug sind. Z.B. gibt es in Grafiken oft Balkenfarben, die keine Legende haben und deren Bedeutung man nur erraten kann.
Das große Problem ist die nächtliche Datensammlung - die hat bisher so gut wie nie funktioniert. In fast allen Nächten brach die Aufzeichnung entweder irgendwann ab (z.B. letzte Nacht ab 03:08 keine Daten mehr, warum auch immer), oder bei nächtlichen Unterbrechungen von zwei- bis drei Minuten wurde zwar das Verlassen des Betts, aber die Rückkehr in dasselbe entweder garnicht oder erst viel später erkannt. Das führt nun dazu, dass die Gesamtzeit im Bett und die Gesamtschlafzeit nicht stimmen, und damit dann fast alle Auswertungen unbrauchbar sind.
Ich habe das mit verschiedenen Positionen unter der (übrigens ganz normalen) Matratze probiert, ohne nachhaltigen Erfolg.
Der Support hat anfangs freundlich und blitzschnell geantwortet. Eine Aussage war, dass es bei einer Gerätecharge zu vielen Reklamationen kam, und man deshalb versuche, dies über Änderung der Sensitivität nachzujustieren - und dass mein Gerät aber nicht davon betroffen sei. Seit einigen Tagen, in denen ich nun noch Fehlerberichte und Screenshots an den Support sende, kommt leider keinerlei Antwort mehr.
Die Idee verdient eine bessere Bewertung, finde ich. Nun hilft aber die interessanteste Auswertung nichts, wenn Daten fehlen - und wenn der Support dann nicht einmal mehr Lösungsvorschläge aufzeigt, ist das Gerät für mich nicht verwendbar. Leider!
I've got the WiFi model, which was very easy to set up and can store the data onboard if you, like me, turn WiFi off at night. So, on rising, the information automatically uploads, to then be viewed on your device(s) of choice. Sleeping with a partner does not distort readings either - the tech and installation guidelines deal very effectively with that potential issue.
If you don't know about HRV, then you should. It's probably one, if not the most important metric we should all be taking notice of in this instant gratification mindset (modern life) we all get sucked into.
I am so impressed, I've bought another, for my partner.
Haven't yet tried using another WiFi network or my phone hotspot, but I've only had it a week.
The tech support is second to none - 3 cheers to Heikki!
The only thing missing is any way to overlay this with sports data from another provider (personally would like to see google fit) Without this integration it's difficult to action the data provided
This should be reflected in the price (assume you are currently expected to pay VAT in Germany as well as the UK ) and potential customers buying on Amazon's UK site should be informed of customs fees.
Amazon will also not help you out if you parcel is stuck in customs as this is a marketplace item.
For this reason do not buy this product unless you are willing to add another £70 to the listed cost (currently £256.24 + £13.40 delivery as of 19/11/21).
