HOLY CARP!!!

A good friend is selling a queen-size Sleep Number. I've never tried one. Will probably check it out this weekend, but I thought I'd see if people here can give some reviews. |
| And how are you today? | |

I have friends who bought one about five years ago. They still like it. Why is your friend selling it? |

Friend of mine spent $5k on one. Returned it within two weeks. He then listened to what I told him to do in the first place and purchased a Tempurpedic. He still has the Tempurpedic. But, if the price is too good to pass up, go for it. My sister has a sleep number bed and swears by it. |

My ex and I had one. He liked it but I didn't think it was so great. He had a bad hip so the air mattress probably gave him some relief. |

She's selling because they switched to a pillow top. She didn't like it that much. I did get to sleep on a Tempurpedic when I was house-sitting, but there's NO WAY I could afford one! I couldn't afford a new Sleep Number either. She's selling for $300. |

$300 is a great deal. Is the warranty transferable? |

Don't know of any 5k Select Comfort beds, but I bought a queen several years ago and absolutely loved it. Would give anything to have it back. My next bed I think will be a Tempurpedic if I can afford one. They're better, but a lot more expensive as well. Mark, tell your friend who spent 5k on one to stop lying to you.

Oh it was the top of the line model and had the adjustable frame where one of you can lay flat and the other can adjust the frame much like a hospital bed. Too many adjustments man!

I don't think Select comfort offers that do they? Seems like it wouldn't work with their technology, which being an air filled tube can't bend. Maybe these days they have something new, I'm not familiar with their current offerings. The Tempurpedic that folds like that though, is about that price. |

That's what he has. Very pricy. We have a more affordable model. |

I'd go for it.. that's a great price and they really are comfortable. I was given the cutest sales speal by a guy at the mall.. He ended up talking about his soon to be born twins, but Klara and I got to experience the settings. aaaaaah. If it is for the whole bed assembly definitely go for it. the cheap frames are 80 bucks retail. |

For those that have these nicer mattresses (sleep number, tempurpedic, select comfort), do you all sleep on your stomachs, or on your backs? (I assume everyone sleeps on their side at some point) I sleep on my stomach 99% of the time and for some reason think I'd be uncomfortable with (or wasteful of) those nicer mattresses. |

Our Tempurpedic was about that price and does not have any of the adjustable stuff. I can use pillows for that. People really skimp on beds, but will spend a zillion dollars on other furniture. No piece is more important than your bed. I didn't like coughing up that much loot, but it was worth it. |

definitely LOVE my tempurpedic.. mostly because my husband outweighs me by about 80 pounds and don't slide into him any more.. not a bad thing in the winter, but intolerable in the summer... and we do have airconditioning. i sleep on my side and the bed accomodates my curves.. 'nuff said. |

I'm not sure about the warranty, but if I like it, I'm getting it. $300! For any decent queen mattress, I'd say that's a steal. |

Sleep Number = Select Comfort I sleep on my side, but often wind up on my back in the middle of the night. |

I have a latex bed, which is like a tempurpedic but firmer and as heavy as a small piano. Bought it new in 1/05 and it STILL has its shape with no sag. it gets firmer as you sink into it -- like layers of progressively firmer resistance. |
