smart beds are very popular in the winter olympics, and supplier orders have soared by 800%. this also marks thethe niche track has completely gone viral。

it is said that it can not only save sleep, but also relieve stress through massage, sit and play with mobile phone, coax you to sleep, stop snoring, and detect sleep...

not only did athletes give it a thumbs up during the winter olympics, but since then, i have also seen people posting photos praising it for being so comfortable, so worthwhile, and so fragrant!

i was itching to buy a new smart bed, so i finally found an opportunity more than two months ago to move my original bed back home and replace it with a new smart bed!

the longer i use it, the more i find that things are not that simple!

smart beds are good in every way, except...

when i bought it, my initial budget was for the mattress + bed, a total of 5,000. then, as i read more and more guides and learned more, i saw prices ranging from 10,000 yuan to over 10,000 yuan.

of course, this is not expensive among smart beds. it is probably equivalent to the price of 200,000 yuan for a car. the brand is good and most of the functions are available. it is the price range with the most intense competition, and there are many that cost 100,000 yuan.

to be honest, it is not cheap, because an ordinary bed + mattress of the same level is only about 4,000-5,000 yuan.

not smart, useless functions

when i bought it, i thought it must have black technology such as lulling to sleep, massage, snoring control, sleep monitoring... i was buying it with the intention of embracing intelligence.

after buying it, i found out after a few days of curiosity that it is not smart:

the so-called coaxing to sleep is to shake the motors at the head and foot of the bed up and down;

the so-called massage is just a vibration from the motor, which is incomparable to a massage chair;

the so-called snoring control is to lift the motor and automatically detect it, but it often misidentifies and thinks you are snoring at the slightest movement;

the so-called sleep detection: probably the same as the wristbands that cost dozens of dollars;

the so-called zero gravity means that the head and foot of the bed are bent at a relaxing angle;

the so-called wake-up call is an alarm clock with vibration;

some functions are even useless, such as:

massage, anti-snoring, sleep detection, wake-up call...

the most commonly used part is the electric adjustment part. in fact, at the beginning, i thought that a budget of one or two thousand yuan more than that of an ordinary bed was very reasonable.

in short, its technological filter will break within a short time after purchase!

easy to break

the presence of a motor increases the possibility of failure. no matter how good its quality is, it cannot be better than a solid wooden bed that has been used for hundreds of years. what's worse is that there is no national standard for it, which means that the smart beds on the market must be of varying quality.

i see the most feedback online is the motor problem:

some motors become stuck after being used for a long time;

some are not raised or lowered in sync, or even tilted, because of the different weights of men and women;

before, i didn’t see these problems and didn’t pay attention to them. in fact, the smart bed in my home also has the problem of different speeds when it is raised and lowered, but it doesn’t affect the use much, so i didn’t care about it.

ugly, few styles, hard to match style

for traditional beds, there is a lot of room for choice:

you can buy world-famous master models;

you can also combine it with your own style and match it just right;

petal bed

you can even go for extreme sizes, so that the size of the bed is exactly the same as the size of the mattress, to cope with bedrooms that are not wide at home;

when it comes to smart beds, there are much fewer choices. it is extremely difficult to choose one that is both good-looking and has the configuration and price you like. it is almost impossible to improve the appearance of the bedroom by using a bed. the only hope is that it does not lower the appearance of the bedroom.

mattresses and sheets specially made

buying an electric bed basically means you have to give up the spring mattress, unless you increase your budget and buy a special spring mattress that matches the brand. in addition, hard mattresses such as coir mattresses and jute mattresses have to be given up.

in the end, most people's choices are second-tier mattresses such as sponge, memory foam, latex, and air fiber.

in fact, you can use ordinary sheets, but in order to avoid wrinkles, it is best to use a fitted sheet. if you like sheets with some draping lace, then you will have to give up.

if you can accept the shortcomings, the smart bed is really a treasure

everything has two sides. we cannot completely deny it just because of its shortcomings!

that depends on whether you can accept these shortcomings. if you can, then i have to say that smart beds are really something that can enhance your sense of happiness.

unlock new postures for reading and playing with mobile phones

i think the most practical function is that the backrest can be raised, which makes it much more comfortable for people to "sit or lie" to play with their phones or read compared to the traditional bed backrest. if you can also use a projector and speakers to watch movies in the bedroom, it's no wonder that people like to post photos, it's really cool.

coaxing to sleep is actually quite interesting.

after i brought it home, i didn’t try the sleep-to-sleep function for a long time. i thought it was a useless function like the anti-snoring and sleep detection functions.

after trying it once, i actually liked it. the rhythmic shaking does help with sleep. no wonder my second child wouldn't sleep in the middle of the night and would only go to sleep if someone carried him under the bed and rocked him.

zero gravity is a great way to relieve stress

zero gravity is nothing mysterious, but it is indeed comfortable. by lifting the head and legs, the blood can flow more smoothly, which can indeed relieve fatigue. it is an exaggeration to say that it is a stress-relieving artifact. it is much more comfortable than lying like ge you.

friendly to pregnant women and the elderly

for the elderly, pregnant women, and those who have difficulty getting up, smart beds can relieve pain by raising the head of the bed;

in addition, pregnant women, morning sickness in the early stages of pregnancy, applying pregnancy oil in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, leg edema, breastfeeding and confinement... can all make things easier by adjusting the head and foot of the bed.

you can also unlock some unexpected surprises;

i have a herniated disc in my lumbar region, and the doctor suggested that i should just fly. with the smart bed, flying is much easier. sometimes after exercise, i can stretch on the bed, which is much easier.

in addition, it is said that sleeping with the head of the bed elevated can also help relieve the breathing problems caused by rhinitis.

how to choose a smart mattress?

i won’t compare, evaluate, or give specific parameters here. i will just give you 4 suggestions from the perspective of someone who has experienced it:

first, don’t be fooled by the sense of technology and spend too much money. just think of it as an adjustable electric bed. if i were to choose again, i would probably buy a cheaper one, around 5,000 or 6,000 yuan.

second, don’t call it import tax. the world’s largest electric bed supplier is called qisheng in china. it is a listed company and also has its own electric bed brand. most electric beds in europe and the united states are also manufactured by it. it is said that it produces 4 million electric beds every year and is also the oem factory for many big brands.

thirdly, in order to avoid future damage and troublesome repairs, you must pay attention to the quality of the motor. it doesn’t matter whether it has 4 motors or dual motors. it mainly depends on the after-sales policy. if they dare to promise after-sales service, at least they will not be bad.

fourth, pay attention to the mattress. in most cases, you still have to lie down and sleep. at this time, the mattress is the biggest factor affecting the quality of sleep. if you have a budget, you can allocate it on the mattress and equip it with a spring mattress.

fifth, a small reminder, you must have app control. the remote control is often hard to find, and voice control is a bit abrupt when you want to use it in the middle of the night.
