We are on our second sleep number mattress. The first one was at least 5 years old when we got it from my mom (who I’m pretty sure got it used)and lasted us over ten years, so the choice to get another one was pretty easy. (All of the conventional mattresses we’ve had have gone soggy within a couple years and my back can’t handle that shit) The one we have is the first level up from the base model (it has a slightly upgraded control and thicker topper piece) and I think it was 1300 when I bought it last year during a sale (which the sale may have just been a deal on the financing interest, frankly I forget but it’s nearly paid off either way)
I have a sleep number bed that's adjustable for firmness for each side. I almost never feel my very restless husband move around at night unless he kicks me. This is the second one I've had, we moved up a size, so I've had these types of mattresses for 25+ years so while they're expensive, you're not going to have to replace it for a long time. (the old one went to the guest room). The thing I like best about it is when I've hurt my back and thought I needed it harder or softer, I could just change it. Didn't have to get a new mattress for a temporary condition. I call it the "no regrets" mattress.
I ended up making the plunge and bought a sleep number bed. Because of my back I like a firmer mattress while my wife prefers a softer one. We got the split king with the adjustable base. It was EXPENSIVE but worth it.
Not sleep number. Sure you can infinitely adjust it, but it's still just a hard air mattress under a couple layers of foam. I have a rotator cuff injury that got worse with the bed because the soft layer is so unforgiving once it's compressed.
If you're not sure and don't want to commit, why not try a Sleep Number bed? My wife and I have a split king with an adjustable platform (not Sleep Number brand). It's saved us time and time again from various physical ailments and positional requirements.
We got a sleep number several months ago and also love it. We went with a solid base so it doesn’t adjust that way (and saved a decent amount on cost) but being able to adjust separate sides of the bed for firmness is awesome. It’s also sleeps so so so much cooler (temp wise) than any of the memory foam/hybrid mattresses we had for the 15 years prior. Highly recommend. Glad to see long term owners commenting here - I’m hopeful ours lasts a long time.
We're on our second SleepNumber mattress. First one lasted 12+ years until we decided to upgrade. When the time came, there was no question about buying another SleepNumber. We're 100% happy with SleepNumber beds. The newer one cost approx $4k

I had a king size sleep number for about two days. No one tells you the king size has a huge, uncomfortable bar down the middle and no matter what you do, the air mattress pushes you towards that bar. You can’t fix air mattress physics. Also, it’s not everything but sex on two twin air mattresses glued together sucks.
