LumiGram’s Cool, Colorful, and Useless Bed Cover Literally Lights Up

We love ill-fated, awesome products that make little to no sense.

In this case, we are talking about fiber-optic bed covers, of course. We couldn’t have been more thrilled to hear from OhGizmo about this delightfully useless offering from manufacturer LumiGram.

The comforter is constructed from a patented material called Luminex. When plugged in (yes, it has to be plugged in), the entire cover (which is available in white, blue, gold, black, pink, red or green) glows from top to bottom in your choice of sparkling white, blue, red or green. If you know much about fiber-optics, you already know that no warmth is emitted and there is no threat of electrical shock. The covers are hand-washable and cost a hefty $660.

We think this is a supremely cool idea. We would probably never buy a fiber-optic cover (we don’t have the money and can’t sleep unless it’s pitch black in the room.), but we fully support the future production of such whimsical, abstract home decor
