    I, like most lemmings, object to the idea of having my bed be cloud connected … But putting that aside, couldn’t the bed just be unplugged? I don’t know if that would solve the angle problem, but surely the bed needs power to generate heat.

      Someone who bought such a thing is 100% stupid. Don’t try to argue with or suggest logic.

    Wtf. How did they not at the very least build in a reasonable safe state whenever the thing gets disconnected. Something like “keep current position, disable heating” or return to flat position.

    But the more pressing question is: why does a bed have an internet connection? Who does this help? And why does it NEED an internet connection? Surely a few Back-up buttons for when the service eventually goes down isn’t too much to ask? Who would buy such a thing?!

    I only got a SleepNumber so I could control the bed’s softness for back pain. They said I could also connect it to my phone for monitoring my sleep and all this nonsense. Hard pass.
