Finally, sleeping at 115ºF like I’ve always dreamed.
Anyone seeing a compressor/condenser in this little box? Heating is easy, but w/o a refrigeration unit it’s never getting below room temp, much less down to 55.
I can’t find a single review or tech-spec site that addresses this.
I love our bedjet. Much cheaper than this and works great.
I have this. It’s fine- can cool to about 10F below room temp. In Florida, in summer, that means a out 68-74 for me. They have a new model though, the Dock Pro, which is quieter and gets really cold. Worth spending more on. It’s nice in winter, too, to get into a nice warm bed and then turn it down.
Pretty pricey and I guess getting anything for a full mattress is a thing of the past. I will stick with my mattress pad warmer in winter an my Medea energy efficient AC unit in summer.
Potential for use in a camper? Keep cool without running the AC? Would be nice if it came in a 12V DC powered version.
I’ve had the half queen version for a little over a year and a half and am extremely torn as to if I would recommend it. The lower price makes it tempting for sure.
I’ve used their warranty 3 times so far: first unit was swapped after about 6 months because it stopped cooling and heated instead. Replacement unit lasted another 6 months before it slowly leaked underneath. Roughly 6 months later the pad (an old version that isn’t included with this) had numerous water lines break while being washed. I didn’t realize this until water already poured all over my mattress and floor. They sent me the updated pad version (included with this) and I think there are some significant design improvements with it. Hopefully it lasts.
On the plus side, I’ve never paid another cent for any of these things to be replaced. The pad was technically out of warranty but was replaced anyway. The last 2 issues were technically in their “we’ll fix but you pay for shipping” window, but they provided labels anyway.
Here’s my performance take:
Ambient room temp of 72 seems to be able to cool to about 65 while set to Lo (55). Much better than not having it, but not amazing. I’m comfortable sleeping now though vs hot, so that was the goal. I leave it on Lo all summer, but in the winter have a more complex schedule to warm up at certain times.
Running 9 hours a night averages 1.4kWh a day.
Some other negatives:
Control is bluetooth or manual. Wifi would be better.
Schedule sometimes randomly fails to turn the unit off or change a temp properly.
Natural condensation will occur when it’s much colder than your body temp. I’ve sometimes felt almost like a cold sweat or clammy from this. Air movement might be nicer, but would also aggravate my wife more.
Ultimately as a hot sleeper, it made a huge difference to me. The fact that it’s water means there’s a high chance that it will eventually leak. The support has been adequate so far, but I suspect it won’t last past the warranty period and I don’t know if they’ll continue to cover breaks. I have not tried any other cooling solutions, but my ideal product might be a pad that uses cooled forced air instead of water (I believe Sleep Number might have this, but reviews I saw seemed like it didn’t perform very well). I might try that next if / when my Ooler breaks and is no longer fixed for free.
I was coming here to say basically say the same things as you based on my ownership of this product but you stated everything so well I can just sit back and continue to look through woot for more endless junk I don’t need 
Nice summary!
Sounds complicated. I usually sleep on the floor in a modified Japanese style that I can put away. On cold nights I layer more under me and blankets on top. In the summer, just sheets. Sometimes a small fan to blow some air.
Honey, did you just p*ss yourself, or was it the blanket?
My guess is it uses a thermoelectric cooler.
Is it washable? must be a colony of bacteria if you can’t …
I’ve had this for a year (king) and I’ve had no problems getting to 55 or 115 degrees. Wife puts hers on full blast heat every night (I don’t know how she sleeps that way) and I put mine around 63 degrees. It’s pretty much a must have for us now.
Few things:
Use distilled water from a jug from the store, and never touch the inside
Make sure the unit is vented so it can breathe, ours are out in the open
Don’t run it all day, especially at the lowest temp setting, or it will leak
Be gentle when moving the pad around, make sure there are no kinks in the water tubes
Place sheet below pad, and another sheet above pad
This thing is the GOAT when you are sick and want a heated or chilled bed
Ah right, the same as in a camping plug-in cooler/refrigerator, makes sense.
