Italian engineer Enrico Berruti admits it was personal laziness that first prompted him to come up with the idea of a bed that makes itself.
3 years later, his first prototype is on show at the 5-day International Exhibition of Inventions that started yesterday in Geneva.
The bed has a contraption at the sides with tubes on which one wraps the sides of the duvet linen.
A button activates the tubes to smooth over the duvet linen, while straps at the side will tighten the sheet itself.
‘To be honest, I am a little bit lazy so I thought of something to do the job (of making a bed) for me,’ he said.
The application could be practical for people with back problems who may not be able to bend, he said.

OK OK I want one. But I am a little scared if this thing wants to make the bed while I am in it.
Weird…

Advantage to people who feels several body pains oftentimes, in order to have bed rest..
But, this thing might not good too.. For instance, it can motivate people to just keep on lying down without knowing how long he/she done it the entire day.
