So I wrote a lot of word salad there and maybe this point got lost:
This device is not a mattress
It is a mattress topper
So you buy your bougie $2500 mattress (because of course someone buying this is not cheaping out on a mattress) and fancy bed frame. Then you spend another $3000 on this. Then *another * 200ish dollars a year, in perpetuity, to make it work (not including electrical costs and water)
But at that point why not pay >€200 for a window unit air conditioner and the >€1 in electricity for the day to run it overnight? If you don’t have a window that can accommodate you can get ones that stand in the room. A dehumidifier. A fan. None of these require apps or subscriptions (yet), cost substantially less, and again the research about sleep temperature is about the environment, not the bed itself
They sell a mattress as well. It’s a bit more integrated.
They do not anymore. They sell a cover, base, and blanket, but now require you otherwise acquire a mattress elsewhere.
