A climate controlled bed comprises a cushion member having an outer surface comprising a first side for supporting an occupant and a second side, the first side and the second side generally facing in opposite directions. In some embodiments, the cushion member includes one or more recessed areas along its first side or its second side. In one embodiment, the bed further includes a flow conditioning member that may be at least partially positioned with the recessed area of the cushion member, an air-permeable topper member positioned along the first side of the cushion member and a fluid temperature regulation system.

1. A climate controlled assembly for placement on a bed, the assembly comprising: a flow conditioning member comprising a spacer material configured to distribute air at least partially through the flow conditioning member, wherein the flow conditioning member comprises at least one resilient material that is rigid or semi-rigid, the flow conditioning member comprising a porous, intricate internal structure;wherein the flow conditioning member comprises stitching to control a flow of fluid within the flow conditioning member, wherein the stitching is configured to help prevent the passage of fluids across the stitching within the flow conditioning member;wherein the stitching passes through the spacer material and is used to provide a path for fluid flow within the flow conditioning member, and wherein the stitching helps to fluidly separate fluids passing through spacer material located in adjacent flow conditioning members; andwherein the flow conditioning member and the cushion member of the bed on which the flow conditioning member is positioned are separate and not attached to one another; anda fluid transfer device in fluid communication with the flow conditioning member via at least one fluid conduit, the fluid transfer device configured to selectively deliver fluid to the flow conditioning member. 2. The climate controlled assembly of claim 1, further comprising an enclosure, the enclosure at least partially surrounding the flow conditioning member, wherein the enclosure comprises a plurality of openings through which fluid passing through the flow conditioning member exits. 3. The climate controlled assembly of claim 2, wherein the enclosure comprises a bag. 4. The climate controlled assembly of claim 1, further comprising at least one thermoelectric device, wherein fluid transferred by the fluid transfer device passes through or past a thermoelectric device to thermally condition such fluid before it enters the flow conditioning member. 5. The climate controlled assembly of claim 4, wherein the at least one thermoelectric device is configured to selectively heat or cool fluids being delivered to the flow conditioning member. 6. The climate controlled assembly of claim 1, further comprising at least one layer positioned above the flow conditioning member to enhance comfort. 7. The climate controlled assembly of claim 1, wherein the flow conditioning member comprises at least one non-porous area. 8. The climate controlled assembly of claim 1, further comprising at least one remote controller for occupant interaction. 9. The climate controlled assembly of claim 1, wherein the stitching helps isolate different zones so that a temperature conditioning can be customized. 10. The climate controlled assembly of claim 1, wherein the spacer material comprises a spacer fabric. 11. A climate controlled assembly configured for placement on a bed, the assembly comprising: a flow conditioning member comprising a porous structure configured to distribute air, wherein the flow conditioning member comprises at least one resilient material that is rigid or semi-rigid, the flow conditioning member comprising a porous, intricate internal structure;wherein the flow conditioning member comprises stitching to control a flow of fluid within the flow conditioning member, wherein the stitching is configured to help prevent the passage of fluids across the stitching within the flow conditioning member, and wherein the stitching passes through the flow conditioning member and helps to fluidly separate fluids passing through porous structures located in adjacent flow condition members;wherein the stitching creates at least one non-porous area within the flow conditioning member, and wherein the stitching is configured to provide a path for fluid to flow when the assembly is in use; andwherein the flow conditioning member and the cushion member of the bed on which the flow conditioning member is positioned are separate and not attached to one another. 12. The climate controlled assembly of claim 11, further comprising a fluid transfer device in fluid communication with the flow conditioning member via at least one fluid conduit, the fluid transfer device being configured to selectively deliver fluid to the flow conditioning member. 13. The climate controlled assembly of claim 12, further comprising at least one thermoelectric device, wherein fluid transferred by the fluid transfer device passes through or past a thermoelectric device to thermally condition such fluid before it enters the flow conditioning member. 14. The climate controlled assembly of claim 11, further comprising an enclosure, the enclosure at least partially surrounding the flow conditioning member, wherein the enclosure comprises a plurality of openings through which fluid passing through the flow conditioning member exits. 15. The climate controlled assembly of claim 11, further comprising at least one layer positioned above the flow conditioning member to enhance comfort. 16. The climate controlled assembly of claim 11, further comprising at least one remote controller for occupant interaction. 17. The climate controlled assembly of claim 11, wherein the stitching helps isolate different zones so that a temperature conditioning can be customized. 18. The climate controlled assembly of claim 11, wherein the flow conditioning member comprises at least one non-porous area. 19. The climate controlled assembly of claim 11, wherein the porous structure comprises a spacer fabric.
