Come along on a bed tour, where this Starry Night Sleep Technology Bed by Leggett & Platt can run as high as $50,000, depending on how you configure it. Plug in your iPod (it's not quite ready for the iPhone, even though it will fit), trick it out with 2K watts of subwoofer/fanny-rattling power, or team it up with electronic trickery that even senses when you're snoring too much or trigger the lights and raises the blinds when you rise in the morning.
Also on this video montage of robotic beddom, don't miss the LCD screen that slides out from under the bed. This one you see here is $18K, perfect for that upwardly mobile bachelor who seems to get laid all the time. We want that mounted under our Starry Night crib, racking up a $68,000 bed. Or we could just get a big honkin' Hummer and sleep in that every night.

cute if you dig gimps on crutches
Needless heedless theedless excess.
Ok, maybe theedless was excessive...
@Rukasu: "gimps on crutches"
Now am I supposed to laugh, or am I supposed to be all shocked and shit? Because I gotta tell ya, I laughed first.
@strider_mt2k: laugh i guess
Sure you have a husband honey...keep saying it and it might come true.
I dunno, I just can't see a married couple spending $18,000 for a one person bed.
Amazing. It does all of that in the size of a twin bed. Her husband must be a midget. A snoring midget. Oh, and why doesn't the bed bake chicken.
LEEEROY JENKINS!
At least I have chicken!
she was cute until she said "my husband." blast. cool concept for a bed though.
She started to lose me at "I can even put my iPhone on it!" and REALLY lost me when she said that he bed told her to eat less before going to sleep.
Telling... truly telling.
Blah Blah Blah, shut up and eat that pillow!
Clearly designed by an engineer, based on the feature set. I like the concept.

But spend $18000 on a bed, and put the world's most hideous headboard on it?
And when you're making a commercial for a an $18,000 bed, put the fugliest linens & comforter you can find from JC Penney on the demo?
Beds are sold 80% looks, and this one gets a 1 on a scale of 10. It's uglier than a bare bedframe.
And as everybody else noticed it looks like a twin bed or smaller. Makes you think they didn't have the money to build a queen size prototype... or maybe they didn't have the money to dress a queen size bed. Sad.
@homerjay:
Come on now, be honest. Try to recall how many times have you looked at your bed and thought "You know what would make this bed perfect? A place to dock my iphone."
More than you care to admit I bet ;)
@dcartist:
The bed isnt $18,000. The tv that goes under it is $18,000. The bed and the tv together are $68,000.
@HJTravels:
Is that funny? Yes. Yes it is.
Cmon, PJ's?!?!
Lace teddies and thigh-highs go great with cast's and crutches.......
The bed gives you hints, like not eating before going to bed...
I.e. you pay $18,000 for common sense?
It dims the lights and lowers the blinds?
A lot of money to be seen as lazy and stupid....
Still and fool and his money :)
Little too proactive for a bed I think
looking fwd. to carrying it upstairs already
I hate to admit this in a public forum, but I spent more than $18,000 on just my mattress and box spring.
It does none of these fun things.
So I'm really getting a kick out of these replies.
Just don't get up in the middle of the night to do business or grab a nightcap. The lights will come on, the blinds go up, and the bed might just bake chicken to satiate your hungry snoring midget husband who's snug in his warm bed listening to the iPhone.
Starry Night? where's the telescope? Based on the name I thought this would be a bed combined with an observatory so I can study the galaxies (though I guess it may be helpful in studying other kinds of heavenly bodies)
So where's the cute model
Her HAusband must be very skinny to fit on that bed with her. Probably from not having chicken!
Cute for the fanboys of abasiophilia. Hello foot binding!
SOOOO not cute model. DAMN y'all need to d/l some better pron if you think that's cute.
@Geisrud: Excellent! and lets add playing the star spangled banner at 100dB.
'fanny rattling power'? Oh Jesus Christ that's hysterically funny ... you guys DO realise that over here in Europe, a fanny is something completely different? The whole office here is in convulsions of laughter over this one ... Niiiiiiccccce!
She is indeed cute. If you were expecting a big ol' fake titted tramp in a thong - then you are an idiot. If it said "Whore Model" than you'd have a gripe... then again, if you want to look at whores, why are you on Gizmodo?
