For a minute, I thought this was satire.
It isn't?
EDIT: After some searching, turns out it is not.

What kind of a moron would spend £3000 on something that then needs a subscription to work?
I know, right? Thermostats have worked since (and were invented some time in) the 1600's, but now... no, no no... we've got to loop in "the whole internet" as a dependency (not to mention one's smartphone, and probably a payment system for an ongoing monthly subscription). Even with the incentive of being continuously paid, they can't keep it working, because it has gotten too complex and greed has gummed up the gears.

Which I'm kinda glad they exist to:
Test wacky things
Be a punching bag for the jokes

Right? We all know there's no such thing as a too-cold bed.
Having slept outside in -40, in an unheated (there were attempts but the too late and too small a stove to make a difference), windy tent, when I had to open my bedroll with significant amounts of violence to even have a "bed" to sleep on — I would humbly like to disagree.
Even though some of these summer nights I would definitely want an actually cool bed, never have I ever dreamed of having to sleep in those circumstances.
No such thing as too cool — but definitely a thing as too cold.
