=== AWS Outage Bricking Beds === | |||
In October 2025, an AWS outage caused Eight Sleep beds to become bricked, preventing customers from adjusting its settings. Some were stuck on a high heat setting or awkward recliner settings, making the beds potentially unusable until services were restored. Power cycling the bed might have made it usable again.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Gault |first=Matthew |date=2025-10-22 |title=The AWS Outage Bricked People’s $2,700 Smartbeds |url=https://www.404media.co/the-aws-outage-bricked-peoples-2-700-smartbeds/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.is/MO7Xw |archive-date=2025-10-22 |access-date=2025-10-23 |website=404 Media}}</ref> | |||
