Burning up in bed? I tried the BedJet, a box that blows cool air between the sheets
BedJet's novel under-the-blankets approach to creating the perfect sleep climate has its benefits – and a few unexpected quirks
TL;DR
- The BedJet provides heating or cooling air flow under blankets to improve sleep climate.
- It significantly improved comfort during hot and humid nights, reducing tossing and turning.
- The device has an app for precise control, including biorhythms, but direct integration with sleep trackers is missing.
- Dual zone models allow individual temperature control for couples with differing preferences.
- The sensation of air flow takes some adjustment, and it can be uneven, leaving legs colder.
- An optional Cloud Sheet can help distribute air more evenly but doesn't solve all issues.
- The BedJet is more effective at heating than cooling, and high humidity can negate its cooling effect.
- It is an expensive solution, with the reviewer questioning if a fan and electric blanket could offer similar results at a lower cost.
