Very Exclusive Gadgets & Gizmos

If you’re having issues with getting to sleep at night, there’s another gadget out there that you could give a try.

Admittedly this method is a bit strange, but it’s worth a shot. The LightSleeper actually uses light to help you sleep, which might seem a bit backwards. If it works though, then it doesn’t really matter how odd it seems.

Adding the best into everyday utilities is a wholesome idea most makers intend to live up with in order satiate consumer demand. Stuffing multimedia functions into beds is a theme highly tapped by the luxury marketers.

Integrating a TV into a stylish and comfortable bed, Reflex Angelo morphs realism into the basics of watching a TV from the reclining ease of a bed.

Comfort’s in the sleep, not in the bed you lay on, still our comfort vests in the bed and the mattress we use.

The 2000T II with a £15,380 price tag is the most expensive bed Hastens has on offer, but they have their super-luxury mattress, Vividus, chasing it down in price.

MotoArt, the company that turns vintage aviation parts into stunning fixtures for the home and office, is now back with the 747 Jet Liner Bed.

The nacelle headboard finish comes complete with acrylic automotive paint, mirror-polished leading nose ring and green Plexiglas end caps.

The Söller bed by Christian Poppel can’t be taken as yet another high-tech luxury bed, but it somehow falls into the category of luxury sleep systems, thanks to the neat, canopied design. Designed for Fibriner and shown at the IMM Cologne 2009, this partially canopied bed with storage space features a headboard that is actually a wardrobe of shelves. The bed cabinet can be dismantled, and when you sleep, the high corners give you a feeling of privacy, along with utmost comfort. The exterior of the bed is done in fiberglass and polyester resin.

Here’s a great way to kick off the morning. There is no better way to greet the day than to start it with a bit of violence. No one really likes their alarm clock, for a great deal of reasons really.

I know it’s had to occur to you on at least one occasion to pick up the clock and chuck it at the nearest wall or at the very least to pound it into tiny pieces.
