Fellow shoppers seemed equally divided over the items as they took to the comments to give their opinion – with some claiming it does wonders for night sweats.

One user said: "I wouldn’t want one for Christmas, but I definitely want one!"

Another added: "I would be delighted! Perimenopause heat is no joke so I imagine full menopause flushes are awful! Thank God the world is changing to accommodate us."

A third commented: "It's a thing for the company as they are counting the money you spend on it."

A fourth argued: "My daughter bought me a nightie and it works have had no hot sweats and some lovely night sleeps which didn't happen before..."
