Nectar’s adjustable bed frame comes with a NASA-inspired Zero Gravity setting

Who says you have to be horizontal to sleep? Certainly not Nectar, the bed-in-a-box brand that is on a mission to bring its customers the ultimate in comfort. The company is taking a holistic look at your entire sleeping experience, and has unveiled a new adjustable bed frame that lets you decide exactly how horizontal (or not) you want to be when you’re looking to get some shut-eye.

Capable of being adjusted at the push of a button, the frame will allow you to customize your sleeping position in minute detail. You can bring your head and torso up in order to read or watch television, or raise your legs so that you’re emulating the feel of an in-bed ottoman. Each part of the bed can be raised separately or together for maximum customization.

Not only can you adjust the bed frame, but you can also get it to give you a massage. While you likely won’t be able to feel it all that deeply through your mattress, the Nectar adjustable bed frame offers three-zone massage to help lull you to sleep. There are also USB plugs so you can feed your smartphone addiction, and a wireless remote.

But what Nectar seems most proud of is its Zero Gravity setting. Sleepers can select a specific configuration that is said to be the one “NASA scientists found was best for astronauts headed into space,” the company told Digital Trends. The Zero Gravity position purports to relieve pressure on the back, as well as improve circulation so that you wake up feeling properly refreshed and rested.

Despite the high-tech nature of the frame, setup appears to be quite simple. It’s delivered to your door in just three pieces — the only thing you need to do is screw in two legs. There are neither tools nor handymen required, so hopefully, you can fall asleep almost immediately after receiving your new piece of furniture.

Nectar has had quite an impressive run since it launched in 2016, having sold 100,000 beds in just 12 months, and generated more than $55 million in revenue. The company expects this figure to balloon to $300 million by year’s end. Part of the firm’s success is likely attributable to its impressive customer service promises. For example, all Nectar products offer a 365-night risk-free trial and a forever warranty. So really, if you’re curious about what Zero Gravity sleep feels like, there’s no risk in just checking out this new adjustable frame.

These Anona smart home deals have us ready to install some new gear
Anona Home Security Black Friday deals hero

I always say one of the best places to start building your smart home is either with the garage -- via a smart garage door opener -- or a smart video doorbell. But another great addition is a smart lock. Why? Well, because it vastly improves the use of your front door and deadbolt. For example, you can issue temporary guest keys or passcodes to let people come and go, and then revoke them when necessary. No more leaving physical keys under a mat or pot. In another scenario, you might grant temporary access to a parcel delivery person so they can put your valuable package inside your home rather than leaving it on your doorstep. Pairing a smart lock with a video doorbell or security camera is even better because then you can see and communicate with who's at your door.

If all of this sounds enticing to you, you'll want to listen up. Smart home purveyor Anona has some excellent deals right now on its Holo WiFi smart lock and Aurora 4K security camera -- the perfect bundle for doing exactly as I've described. The Anona Aurora security cam won the Muse Gold Design award in the security category, meanwhile, the Holo smart lock takes just three minutes to install -- it's super easy. Okay, that sounds great, but what are the deals? Let's get to that, shall we?
