    I had a 8 sleep and retunred it. felt like i was sleeping on a wet sheet (its not actualy wet) but you know how when you get washing out of the dryer and its cold if its been sitting there too long. and your not sure if its wet or just cold. thats the feeling. but all night. wife and I couldnt shake the feeling of wet.. so we returned it. lucky they were super chill with the return policy.

      I've had a 8 Sleep for abut 1/ 1/2 years. I love it. It doesn't "feel" wet but you can definitely feel the cool/cold (depending on your setting) and it really improves my sleep. This is validated every time I travel and don't have. It is not cheap but it is worth every penny. And a side comment, it doesn't matter how cold you keep your room, the mattress temperature when you are under the sheets/blankets, is what matters.

    I can't take 8Sleep seriously. I am one of the rare people in the UK that has AC. I had it installed a few years ago. I have one outdoor unit, and three indoor units. They are made by LG, so it's a good system. The cost for me to buy it, AND have it installed, was 25% less than one of the 8Sleep systems. Nuts.

      I'm constantly on the lookout for an 8Sleep competitor that doesn't take the piss with a crazy expensive price point and a subscription model. Not a chance I'm spending that much on something that is cloud dependant and the company can just brick if they feel like it.

    One of my best friends gave me a robot vaccuum as a birthday/housewarming gift last year when I moved into my current flat, and it’s genuinely improved my quality of life. I’ve got a dust mite allergy and recently adopted a cat despite my cat allergy, so having my little guy go around several times a week to keep my home minimally dusty and hairy is fantastic. My friend didn’t splurge on the self-emptying station, and frankly I’m glad she didn’t - I dislike introducing a disposable product into a system that can be fully non-disposable, and emptying the bin regularly keeps me on track with vaccuum maintenance such as cleaning the filter and removing hair from the brushes. I guess it reveals how fully in my 30s I am that I own three vacuums and am genuinely excited about all three of them, but there you go. I couldn’t recommend it enough and it’ll likely hold a price podium position as Best Present Ever for many years to come.

    Yeah $2,300 for the 3 Model is insane. Not including tax and shipping and warranty if offered. The 4 is double the price though, mind blowing. I used to sell mattresses, you would be better off buying a brand new bed with cooling gel tech and other features in my opinion.

The benefits he advertises are all things that you can do from your Tesla app already. It's a worse product in every way.
