I looked it up. It is a smart mattress with an annual subscription for features like auto-adjusting height, heating/cooling, and health monitoring

  • Cheapest model is $2648
  • Most expensive model goes up to $6796. This includes:
    • the most expensive subscription
    • largest size mattress (California king)
    • all the add-ons
  • The smart blanket alone is $1000 and is not machine-washable or dry-cleanable
  • The mattress does not come with legs included in the base model
  • Its subscriptions are between $200 and $400 billed annually
  • A subscription is required for any of the functionality you’re paying for. Without the subscription, it becomes a dumb old mattress

it becomes a dumb old mattress

the heat thing is water based so it really becomes less than a dumb old mattress because water bed with no temparature control is going to be miserable

Unheated water beds can be actively dangerous

It's not a full water bed, more like a water inlay ontop of a regular mattress so I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt
