I’m so mad that I love Orion’s $2,195 AI mattress pad
Sleeping on the Orion is like flipping your pillow to find “the cool side,” except that your entire bed is the cool side.
An ambitious 26-year-old entrepreneur named Harry Gestetner created Orion, an AI-enabled $2,195 mattress pad that aims to enhance sleep quality. The product is a cooling pad with adjustable temperature settings controlled through a phone app, which learns from sleep data to optimize sleep quality. Orion's founder, Gestetner, faced immense health challenges while building his previous company, which led him to focus on longevity and the importance of sleep.
Despite its hefty price tag, Gestetner believes that the product will become more affordable in the future, aiming for a $500 price point. Orion simplifies the sleep experience, offering personalized comfort and monitoring sleep patterns, although its high cost may deter most consumers.
