To be fair, beds have always been a racket. I know a bad one when I see it but could never tell a passable €100 bed from a €10,000 bed. Why I'd want my bed to be connected to the internet, nevermind Bezos, is beyond me. Then again, I'm not bright and have been known to sleep in ditches and on under-sized sleeping pads.
