This FTW. Like I'm really surprised why ppl cheap out on beds when you spend a decent amount of your life on one. I got the P5 King, which hey now being divorced, man I never felt more at peace fitting in a king size bed.

r/homeownersBest rated mattress for master bedroom? Finally Upgrading!
10 days ago

Sleep number. I bought my p5 about a decade ago, and I will never have another mattress. And since these are modular, I could, technically, kind of actually never have another mattress. I have the split king and dual adjustable bases,, and all told it was about 4500. I got the bases at costco for less than half the price, but the mattresses themselves are sleep number. Would I have a split king if I bought another? No, that was bc I was married at the time. I sleep crosswise if I want to. The most annoying part is the sheets for that. But still, I took it with me in the divorce and it's fine. My ex bought another one immediately :D They did not get the split king, although they, ah... could have? I guess :D (Pro tip: be sure to get your OWN sleep number app and profile if you don't want other people knowing how both you and whatever is going on on the other side of the bed sleep :D) Honestly, I have the p5, which is very basic, but I didn't want memory foam, and I don't care if I have the other bells and whistles. (ANd again, it's modular, so you really could hack it and upgrade if you were inclined)

I've had mine and my adjustable (costco) base for a decade, and will never have another type of mattress. I have a p5.

I've had my p5 sleep number for a decade and it is the last mattress I will ever buy. I love it. I also have the adjustable base (but from costco, so about 1/3rd the price). Mine's a split king with a split king base, and if I had been single when I bought it, I'd just do a regular king, but still go with the P5. But the split king is fine, too. Sleep number is also modular, so if parts wear out... you just replace. (Actually, some people gradually "upgrade" into other models, Johnny Cash One-Piece-at-a-Time style, as well...there are whole YouTUbe series devoted to this :D )

I have a Sleep Number P5. It's sort of their basic number and does not include memory foam which I don't like because I am a sweaty hose beast and cannot stand memory foam because I feel like it's eating me alive, even if there's a little bit of it. It's probably 10 years old now and it Remains the best mattress I've ever had. And I'm one of those people that tends to keep mattresses for a very long time if I like them. I have a split King meaning it's two twins. I got it when I was still married. And I liked it so much that I kept it in the divorce. And for what it's worth, my ex-husband also replaced it with one of his own. Although he did not get a split King. And I shouldn't know this, but he forgot to unlink his sleep number account so I had to witness it all haha I do also have the adjustable base. And we got the split King so that each of us could operate our bases independently. The caveat is I bought the base at Costco, and it was about a third of the cost and is exactly the same. It's great because X used to like to sit up to watch TV and I didn't. And I have one bad leg and so being able to put my legs up after surgery or when it was bothering me and not have to disturb somebody else was very convenient. Also I can raise the head just the tiny bit if my hiatal hernia is bothering me. JFC I sound old. Haha This is the basic P5 in the basic head and foot adjustable bed. No heating or cooling or any of that shit. It was handy when I was married because my husband preferred a much softer mattress and I like sleeping on a gulag prison floor. Even now I keep the two halves set differently which is kind of entertaining. But that's what happens when you're a 49 year old single person. Your Entertainment comes in the form of setting different sides of your mattress different firmness levels. But for real, it's been the best mattress I've had. And the nice thing about Sleep Number beds is literally every part of it is in fact modular. If you are so inclined you could gradually, Johnny Cash one piece at a time, upgrade it to a different bed. There are hacks on YouTube to show you how to do that. And on a more practical level it means if something wears out you can replace it.

We have a Sleep Number p6 and love it. Got the split king base with the light and the foot warmer. Bought it in 2019 to level up from our p5 we bought in 2012.

We've got a split head Sleep Number and it's been great. Can adjust firmness easily. Can put a pad on it if you want. Has really worked out for us.

I’m not a Sleep Number shill, I promise. I bought one eighteen months ago with an adjustable frame and I’ve never slept better. I wake in the same position that I fell asleep in with no pressure point aches or pain and head up so no more GERD wake ups. They are not cheap, but I got what I paid for.

Using a firmness adjustable cooling mattress from Sleep Number. Keep it dialed up pretty dang firm because if I sink down there’s gonna be serious back pain waiting to greet me in the morning. Wife says it’s like a board, lol.

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.

I am a side sleeper as well and I sleep with a CPAP mask on. The most comfortable mattress I’ve used is a Stearns & Foster pillow top. Very comfortable and support. Also consider an adjustable base. The sleep number mattresses and base are amazing also because you can adjust the settings. My life goal is to get one.

I like my Nectar mattress that I got on Amazon for less than $700. I prefer it x100 to the SleepNumber that I spent thousands on.
