Select Comfort Mattress Sleep Number 5000

Pros: comfortable in the store
Cons: deflating, overpriced, poor quality, not worth it, don't buy it

To start, we went and tested this mattress in June. I was 8 months pregnant at the time, so anything that I could adjust sounded great. We didn't have the money at the time, so we held off for a while. I went to their website in January and applied ...

Pros: Adjustable, nice cover.
Cons: Felt like sleeping on an air mattress or a waterbed. Extremely uncomfortable.

We had considered the purchase of a Sleep Number bed for years after ads on the radio and even visiting a sleep number store. My parents own THREE of the sleep number beds - one for home, one for motorhome & one for vacation home in AZ. They have ...

Pros: Comfort-Comfort! If you and your significant other need different mattress capacities, this is it.
Cons: There should be a weight limit on these.

Alright, I read some of these reviews and now I had to say my peace. I am a LONG term buyer. I purchased my comfort select 5000 almost 4 years ago. I will admit that the cost absolutely sucks. However, my husband and I sleep just fine and are ...

Pros: No springs, no flipping the mattress
Cons: Price

I have had the bed for one year and AM glad I bought it. I do think it is over priced for what you get but it is a good bed. At the store, I ordered the dual chamber bed and tried it for 3-4 nights and did NOT like the dip in the middle of the bed that ...

Pros: Delivery to your door, great concept, customer service.
Cons: comfort level, flimsy....grows mold.

I read the website often and thought I should give back and share my experience with this bed. We shopped several months and the concept of having adjustable firmness awesome. My husband enjoys a more firm sleep and I love soft so this was a great ...

Pros: Adjustability
Cons: Price, Materials

I hope to answer a number of critics seen on this site with this review, so let's get started - Smell - yes there is a chemical smell (like a new car) but it does dissipate over time, an not enough to keep you awake - Price - Overpriced, as an ...

Pros: I love everything about the bed.
Cons: Haven't found any yet.

So good I just upgraded from a Queen size to a King size and slept like a baby last night. I didn't even want to get out of bed this morning. I wish I could take the bed with me everywhere I go. I've read the negative reviews and here goes: ...

Pros: None. It's the "South of the Border" of the bed world.
Cons: Does not support anyone over 220 pounds. Loud motor on compressor.

We've had our bed for 4 years, and we've only had it that long because it cost so freaking much. My husband and I are big people (over 220 lbs each), and this bed was obviously made for someone tiny. I've been trying for 4 years to find the "magical" ...

Pros: Lightweight and easy to make the bed. Looks like a standard queen size mattress set.
Cons: WARNING: The back side of the mattress cover is PAPER -- exceedingly poor quality junk.

We thought we had found the answer to our mattress quest for comfort. However, we are both side sleepers and having slept on our bed for nearly 5 years, we have BOTH developed hip bursitits!!! The pain has been so excrutiating that we have had to ...

Pros: Easy to tear down when we couldn't stand sleeping on it anymore
Cons: Uncomfortable; Unstable; Expensive; Company won't honor warranty

I had very high hopes for this bed. Our regular mattress was shot, and I thought I was buying the best of the best. Little did I know that I was buying an overpriced glorified pool float that would just about cripple myself and my husband. Not to ...

Pros: lightweight, easy to move around
adjustable firmness
comfort has not changed in 8 years
no pressure points
Cons: numbers on LCD controller not displaying properly after 8 years.

After reading the reviews on this site, I have to chime in and say my wife and I have had a great experience with our select comfort bed.  We find it hard to sleep on anything else now.We bought our bed about 8 years ago.  It's still as ...

Pros: I finally quit watching those awful Lindsay Wagner movies because I now I hate her.
Cons: Cost, difficulty in assembly, uncomfortable, makes sudden noises.

Chronic back aches (both my husband and myself); two new mattresses in as many years and then adding "egg crates", down mattress pillow tops, foam padding -- nothing helped. We were desperate. We spoke to a few friends who'd bought the TempurPedic ...

Pros: Quick set-up. Knowledgeable sales people (W. LA and Redondo Beach stores)
Cons: UPS Delivery was difficult to schedule because signature was required. Delivery time=11am-7pm.

I love that I can change the firmness on this bed because some nights I just want to sink into a hammock when other nights I need some more support in my lower back. So far it hasn't aggravated my sciatica like my husband's old Ikea foam mattress did. ...

Pros: Easy set up and great sleep.
Cons: Kids can play with the remote and therefore mess up your back. Ouch!!

After months and months of looking and wondering if we should spend so much money on a bed, we finally pulled the trigger on July 5th and it arrived on or around the 10th. I had a little trouble putting it together because they forgot to put the owners ...

Pros: none anymore a waste of money now they are charging a mint for parts
Cons: everything about this bed sucks

This bed used to be the best but now is having more problems than I can count, mold, leaks, body impressions and broken foundation. The company has been no help at all not responding to any emails pr messages. My back is hurting worse than ever after 2 ...
