The eight sleep seems like a neat product, but the pricing and subscription are a deal killer. I can see maybe $999 with no monthly fee. I'm sleeping pretty comfortably on a $600 foam mattress. While the temp control sounds interesting, I just can't imagine dropping $2k on something like this & having to pay monthly for the pleasure of using it. I have a feeling thing product will go the way of the Juicero. For me, my solution to sleeping too hot was to go to Target and spend $30 on a fleece blanket. They're comfortable and still seem to breathe well enough so I don't sweat while I sleep. I find when my internet dies, my blanket continues to function just the same. If I'm still feelin' hot, then my super baller ceiling fan does the trick.

Stay away from Eight-sleep. Mine also sprung leak, under the pad, and I didn’t know until several weeks later. My entire bed was covered with black mold and I had to throw out all my bedroom furniture. The company was nonresponsive and has been playing games about a refund for months. Not only does this product not work long-term, but if It should spring a leak and ruin your bedroom furniture they will do nothing

You know, I live in Germany and here AC is kind of no option, because I can't punch a hole in the brick walls of my bed room, so I was hoping I could use the BedJet as a substitute for a AC system, for those increasingly common 30+ degree Celsius (86+ Fahrenheit) nights we have here. But since I know now that the thing only works in max 79 degrees Fahrenheit, I know there is no hope for me. **sigh** Even if I had the money for that "Sleep Pod" thing, US American mattresses aren't compatible with German beds, so that is no option either.
