smart bed

Shit primarily on the people at the company making the joke product, and secondarily on the dumbass who bought one.
The individuals at the company are the problem. The internet tends to comment like they don't get this.
"the Internet" is commenting exactly that way...

This product is more for people that run hot during the night. Especially for couples where one runs hot and the other runs cold during the night. And the cold one doesn’t want to sleep with ac on all night. With this product the hot sleeper can just turn on the bed cooler on their side to cooldown. So a blanket wouldn’t help in that situation. There are other brands that don’t require internet or a subscription. And yes if you only buy this product to warm your mattress than you are stupid.
Than is not then

While the IKEA mattress is fine for you or me, I really don't think this smart mattress is actually that expensive. I believe 5k and up is still relatively common for a high quality mattress.
When you annualise it over 10 years and between two people, if they're getting better sleep than they would have otherwise, who are we to judge how they spend their money? It's actually not that bad in terms of value. There are nights in the summer where I would gladly pay €200 to not be sweating into the sheets.
Obviously, relying on a company for an app to control your bed is the idiotic part. But the price itself is not outrageous for me.
The best mattress I've owned was like $1500 and has lasted me 15 years now. Even with inflation, your figure is quite high

That's not a smart bed, that's an internet-connected revenue-extractor.

Invest in orthopedic mattress and linen sheets instead of this crap.
Maybe you don't live somewhere where the average summer temperatures are 30C or higher. I'm those places, this would be a great product; your alternatives are to swelter all night, or A/C your house. A self-cooling bed would be more energy efficient.

You make it sound like if you make and sell a thing, people are required to buy it. If you tried to sell me an AI bed that would not function without an active internet connection, I'd laugh at you.

Its actually the endless profit seeking that corporations must abide by in order to succeed that has led to shitty unnecessary tech and AI integration being in everything. The individuals working to make a living are only a symptom of that process. If they did not exist some other desperate soul would sell their labor instead. They might carry responsibility but they do not cause this issue.

I just took a trip down south in the US and obsessively monitored the weather back home and pined for it haha.
92F (33C) where I was at, 68F (20C) at home.

Waterbeds suck, honestly. They're great for people who have a very consistent body temp and don't have a partner. Get warm or cold in the middle of the night? Tough, it takes ages to change the temp of a huge mass of water. Partner with a different comfort zone? Too bad.
They're also pretty uncomfortable for a lot of people. I hate waterbeds

Without elaborating too much, this is my situation, and we solve this by having the room cold for him and blankets for me. Actually, the situation is much better when our insurance stops jerking us around about his medication that fixes his night sweating and other related problems, but we're American, so can't be helped.
It just seems like a lot of trouble when you can buy a blanket idk.
Honestly, I'm the one paying for a subscription service that doesn't help (insurance), so I guess I'm the clown here.

Well I did say that this is for people that don't like to have the AC on all night, like when the cold sleeper keeps complaining about a cold head or the noise. Like not everyone lives in the US where HVAC is the norm many people in the world have those big AC units hanging on the wall that can be pretty noisy.

It's real. I was legitimately expecting to feel foolish for believing it.
There's one born every minute.

I initially thought this was a satire comment, on a satire product.
The fact it is real makes something feel fundamentally wrong with the world.
It's... it's not satire?!

That's a stupid product. Also, can't stand this guy. He's extremely obnoxious, shills cloud services, and seems to give opinions about things way out of his expertise.
Yeah! I watched a few of his things, and the vibe was always off. I told YouTube to stop recommending him. Then the honeypot controversy happened (he basically put their documentary on his channel in full length, they asked him to please remove it, he played the victim, effectively sicking his fan base on honeypot)

It's smart relative to the person who bought it
