sleep number bed versus sleep innovation Mattress?
174285
I have only tried out the sleep number bed in a store. Although it feels nice, I chose to go with the sleep innovation mattress because of price. So, let me tell you my experience with the sleep number: (1) It was shipped to me in a box with the mattress compressed. It was heavy but small enough to meander through doors. (2) Some people say that the mattress has a certain smell upon decompressing. I did not notice any smell. (3) Honestly, I ended up getting a bit sore on some of the first nights but I've been sleeping on the mattress now for nearly a year and can say it is extremely comfortable. (4) For those of you who have "hot" bodies, you will experience warmer sleep because the mattress doesn't dissipate heat all that well. I end up sleeping without a blanket on most nights (I live in a tropic climate) because the bed does retain heat and keeps me warm. (5) I rotate the bed every few months to ensure that I am not sleeping in the same spot over and over. I do this to preserve the mattress. I do weight 250+ lbs. So far, the strategy has worked well... no permanent sagging of the bed. Since you can't test the sleep innovation bed in a store, might I recommend that you try out the cousin to the sleep innovation at Costco called "Novaform." This will give you a feel for how the sleep innovation mattress is. It isn't the exact same mattress but I understand that it is manufactured by the same company. Coupled with my high-thread-count sheets, the sleep innovation mattress is soft and yet not too soft. Love it.

I have never slept on a sleep number bed, but my sister has one and she doesn't like it

Night vs Day. lol Sleep number is, in my personal opinion, going to be a hundred-fold times better and more comfortable than the sleep innovation mattress. This is a very hard memory foam mattress that you get from sleep innovation. You can not change the density or firmness of this mattress, while with the sleep number bed you can. Granted the Sleep number bed is substantially a larger cost, it's probably worth it in the long run over something like the sleep innovation mattress. (Again, unless you prefer a very firm mattress)

I just got a sleep number. I hate it. It causes depressions where you are the biggest (butt for me) and makes your spine out of line. Their solution was to send a half inch foam for the bottom which means I had to take it apart. It's also all plastic. The bed chamber, every part of the $300 box spring, and the air chambers. The air chambers are narrow. There's cheap foam sides and middle. If you want an air bed you may as well buy a cheap one. The sleep number just has two air chambers, a fancy remote and a nice cover.

Yes, you can use this with the Sleep Number Mattress. The remote control that comes with the bases would operate the bases. The mattresses would come with their own remote to operate the mattress.

Not on a sleep number bed but with a temper-pedic mattress with a box spring that has head and foot movement and massage features and it works extremely well. No movement of the pad on the mattress even with the changes in the status of the box spring. Was in the specialty linen business for many years and this is an unqualified 6 out of 6 stars!

I don't know, I didn't look but we love it if that makes a difference. It's a nice, firm mattress.

I am not sure of the exact price difference - but I did not notice a huge difference. The mattress does seem to have more of an indentation where my toddler son sleeps, versus the infant son (they have the same mattress- I bought them each one (meaning we own two total). But, that may have more to do with weight of the kid rather than firmness. In other words, it does not seem to be a huge difference - at least to me.

It is not something that is purchased separately. You just have to guess at it depending on how stiff or soft you prefer your mattress. I went with a middle-of-the-road 6 (which is what it automatically comes in if you don't specify otherwise) and it sleeps great.

Thanks for the response. Actually, I found an electric mattress pad at my local Sleep Number store and it works great. You can't feel any of the wires and the transformer is completely silent.

Hi I personally don't know difference. I had a queen latex for 10 years and loved it- I needed a king bed and should have bought this from the start- after sleeping on it now for 2-3 months I am still very happy with my choice.

This is the lap version it is not King, Queen nor Twin. Brookstone does make a different version for sleep in Queen. It is not the same material or thickness, as the lap version but I also like it very much.

I would suggest sticking with a spring mattress if you are concerned about weight/sagging. If you notice the store floor models of the solid "memoryfoams" they all have a bit of a sink from people just testing them --- I went with a combo model - individually wrapped coils/springs with only the outer layer memory foam. for us it was much better and breathes more cooler.

Yes, I currently own a tempurpedic $2500+ king size memory foam mattress at my primary residence that I've owned since 2010. I purchased a king size sleep innovations 12" suretemp memory foam mattress about 2 months ago for my vacation home. I've switched back and forth between mattresses about 6 times. The sleep innovations mattress is considerably more comfortable than the tempurpedic, and I get a much better night's sleep on it. There's absolutely no comparison.

I don't have a sleep number bed but it works fine with my Night Therapy Platform metal bed frame which I also got from Amazon.

It depends. For me, 2 pillows would be too much, but 1 pillow is not quite ideal. If anything, I would get a thin down pillow as a 2nd pillow for side sleeping. The Sleep Innovations pillow has a memory foam + down alternative, so it doesn't compress enough to use 2 of those pillows. I am doing fine with 1 pillow, but I sleep on my back a lot.

I cannot find the warranty certificate on mine, but I believe it was supposed to be 20 years. I did verify that the Amazon web site shows 20 years and the Sleep Innovations site shows 10 years, but I also checked the Costco web site which also sells Sleep Innovations mattresses and the4y also show 20 years. I believe I would give them a call tomorrow if I were you. At my age, the difference between 10 and 20 years doesn't worry me.

The Sleep Innovations 14-inch Memory Foam Mattress that I bought is very comfortable, soft but very supportive.

To be honest I think either would work. It is an outstanding mattress. We have slept on it for over 6 months now I think and we adore it. Happy ZZZZZZs

I am not familiar with the sleep number bed, but I don't see why it would not work. It really is just a frame that fits into the regular bed frame and then you put the box spring on it and the mattress. To confirm this, I would write to the store. I had a similar question when I purchased this, using an older frame and they answered promptly. I am very happy with this product and wish I had known about it sooner. If your bed is king size, you might have to purchase two of these. But the Company will answer all those questions for you.
