Low quality data + expensive = not worth it.
I have struggled with sleep for all of my adult life (many of you reading this review probably have a similar experience). I've tried every sleep medicine, supplement, hack, etc. I've also tried a majority of sleep trackers on the market, and been largely disappointed at the data that is clearly wrong. (I remember I was grocery shopping at 2am one night when I couldn't sleep and I looked down at the sleep tracker I was wearing that told me I was in deep sleep at the time. Ha!). So I was excited to get 1.) a medical grade sleep study done and 2.) have this data reviewed by a doctor! Unfortunately, it was more of the same as Dreem's sleep tracker provided data that was wrong. Not slightly wrong; it said I was asleep when I was up doing chores. If Dreem's monitor can't even tell the difference between wake and sleep, I certainly don't trust it for more nuanced data like sleep architecture, sleep apnea events, etc. Perhaps most disappointing was that my sleep doctor wouldn't listen to me and/or didn't believe me when I told her that the data was wrong. And pricing seemed high for the quality of data collection tools provided (a disposable pulse oximeter and an adhesive chest sensor). Advertised as a $199 sleep study, it ends up being $500 after the required virtual visits before and after the study. Summary? As the title says: low quality data + expensive = not worth it.
