BedJet Cloud Sheet - Dual Zone Queen (Cooling, Heating & Climate Control just for Your Bed)

As a 45 year old woman in a noisy city apartment, i feel like I've barely slept the past couple of years. Went on a quest for the perfect noise-cancelling earbuds last year and solved that issue (which ended up being a combo of 4 different sets of ANC earbuds all kept charged at my bedside for quick changes), but have recently gotten to the end of my patience with the pre-menopausal night sweats, tossing and turning to find the cool spot on the bed/pillow, and the endless cycle of violently throwing the covers off to dry out and then pulling them back on because I'm now freezing. And so because I'm--as my coworker says--on a never-ending quest to always be improving some aspect of my life, the research began.I was definitely put off by the Bedjet's price point at first. The cost of the unit plus the queen sheet was fairly cringeworthy, and I continued my search. I ended up ordering one of the sub $200 swamp cooler mattress pad things first, but was having buyer's remorse before I even unpacked it from the box. After some thought (and discussion with the man I'm dating, who wishes he could snuggle me more often when we're sharing a bed, but also prefers not to end up drenched in my sweat), I pulled the trigger on the Bedjet. I figured I'd give it a try, hold onto the swamp cooler pad to try in case the Bedjet didn't work for me, and return whichever one was the loser.Last night was my second sleep with the Bedjet, and even though there's definitely a learning curve with the settings, I'm hooked! For the record, I'm using it on a queen bed with (from the mattress up) a 3" "cooling" memory foam topper, a mattress pad, 400 TC fitted sheet, 400 TC flat sheet, the dual zone Cloud sheet, and a lightweight quilt (by Opalhouse from Target). I chose to use a normal flat sheet between my body and the Cloud sheet so as to avoid having to wash the Cloud sheet as often as I do my normal sheets, and I think this is causing me to have to use higher fan settings on the Bedjet. I don't mind this, but YMMV. I have also slept with my thermostat set to 67 degrees and a Honeywell vortex air circulator fan in my bedroom for the past couple of years.The first night I turned the a/c in my apartment down to 67 and turned my fan on at bedtime, as usual, then cranked the Bedjet's cool setting as low as I could get it with the fan blowing like crazy, thinking that would be the magic bullet to cure my sweaty sleeps. I ended up chilly with this setup (which wasn't a huge deal because I had my partner in the bed that first night anyway). Last night I was on my own, and decided to adjust things a bit. I set the a/c to 70, turned the fan on, and started the night with the Bedjet set to cool at 74 degrees with the fan at 50%. I actually found that the air circulation provided by the Bedjet is what seems to be helping me the most, and ]thinking my temperature sweet spot may be the cool setting between 76-78 degrees, at least when I'm solo. I'm going to try adjusting my a/c up a bit tonight to 72 (it's at 72-73 during the day, and I'd LOVE to save some cash on my power bill), and see if I the Bedjet can keep me comfy at 74-76 with a 50% fan speed.I haven't yet played with the biorhythm settings, but am looking forward to setting that up and experimenting once I figure out what settings I like for when I'm too hot or too cold. I imagine I'll also have to find my go-to settings for when I have my partner over, as I definitely sleep hotter when being cuddled.Overall, I'm thrilled so far with my purchase, and feel fortunate I was able to snag the v3 on a lightning deal at $389. I will likely be starting to look for deals or a used unit to use when I'm at my partner's place. I would also recommend the Cloud sheet. It's oddly pricy (can an Etsy seller please start offering a more price-appropriate aftermarket version, maybe in some colors?), but I do feel like just having the fan blowing at my feet all night wouldn't be nearly as effective as having the "air blanket" resting on top of me. If it's something that you can swing financially, the investment in quality sleep may be worth the cost of this system, even if you have to put it on credit. I already feel like my quality of life has improved over just 2 nights, and will only get better once I've dialed in how to best use the settings.

This is a "Where has this been all my life type product". It seemed a bit gimmicky and yet for the high price tag, since on sale I gave it a chance. I would by again and again that's how much I love and need this product in my life. Let me break down the review.Sheet Sold Separate: I highly recommend this!! I almost didn't get it, but so glad I did. Trust me when I say it is soft yet durable like hotel sheets. It is similar to a duvet. There are button openings and that is what you unsnap to put the Bed Jet nozzle in. You can even use two Bed Jets in certain sizes so both partners can adjust their own settings. Under the sheet is little stitched valves that let the cool or warm air through, the material itself gets drastically cooler/warmer depending on the setting you use.How it works: The BedJet uses the air from the room so the cooler your room, the colder the air being blown. It has three auto-programmed modes you can set either warm or cool to your liking and the percentage of airflow. This has come in handy when half asleep, Let's say I have mode one is 75% when I feel warm and then wake up chilled, I have mode 2 set to 15% which still keeps me cool but no longer chilled. The pre-programmed button makes it easy to hit while half asleep. The remote lights up with the slightest movement, so you can easily see it at night.Timer: You can pre-program the timer for auto-shut off. I haven't really done this, the preset is 9hrs and I usually just shut off when I wake up in the morning.Noise: You will hear it. It sounds like a white noise machine. Some people like this sound but for me it can be somewhat disruptive with sleep on the higher settings. If I am incredibly hot, I can usually tune it out just until I cool down.Hot Flashes: This is why I got the BedJet. It has helped me get through insanely rough nights of waking up 3 times an hour due to hot flashes. This is worth it ladies!!Sensory: Overstimulation and chills from an overhead fan but sleep in a poorly insulated room that becomes hot during the summer or cold during winter? Maybe you always have to sleep with sheets, even in a warm room. This helps with all of that. The consistent flow of air evenly distributes and makes the sheets feel cool. If you have the BedJet sheet, it will come out of the hole/valves and significantly cool your body in a way an overhead fan cannot do. Same with the warm air, which can greatly reduce the need for heated plug-in blankets. (I have gone through my fair share of those)Raynaud's sufferers- This fan blows both cool and warm air depending on setting, I only feel safe using the warm setting awake although you can program it to auto shut off. The cool air can get quite cool depending on your room. I recommend the pre-set to a low percent until you know best what works for you. Even at 25% my toes have been quite chilled, and I had to turn completely off when half asleep or lower it to 10% or turn it off completely.Other Use: Pop it out from under the sheets and it becomes a cool stream of air you can point at your bed of towards wherever you are sitting, same with warm air in the winter. My cat especially loves this during the day when she is taking over my bed and I'm not using it.Overall, I would give this fan and the separately sold sheet over 5 stars if I could. It has helped me get better sleep with less frequency of waking up. Everything from the remote lighting up, the programmable pre-sets which make it easy to select at night. Constant nightly and at time daily use for months and it is still working great! This reminds me of the patient-controlled tubing they put into your hospital sheet/gown before surgery to make you comfortable. This is definitely a must have, Highly Recommend!
