Select Comfort Mattress Sleep Number 7000

Pros: Comfort and support- a real luxury
Cons: Odor from the foam; high price

I recently got married for the first time at the not-so-tender age of 46. Prior to marriage, my husband, who is 52 and suffers from arthritis and hip problems, owned a (really) cheap inflatable mattress, while I owned a TempurPedic but in a full size ...

Pros: Great comfort, can "adjust out" sagging, etc., all components replaceable.
Cons: High price (but for us, its worth it)

The Select Comfort beds are built around an inflatable mattress that looks pretty sturdy, more like the material found on a Zodiac boat than the temporary air mattresses you buy for guests. The difference between the various models has to do with how ...

Pros: Adjustability, comfort
Cons: Price, California King mattress is actually 71"x81", not 72"x84"

This is great. I did a lot of research on these beds, and actually almost bought one 6 months ago. I had a hard time spending over $3k for an air bed, especially after reading all the pros and cons of it. So I picked up a Serta pillow top, (Costa ...

Pros: It does not feel like an air mattress.
Cons: The bed is high

It's either that or my old mattress was that bad! : ) My husband and I can never agree on a bed. I have tried the Select Comfort in the store before, on my own, and liked it. We went together and decided on the Select Comfort 7000 Eastern King ...

Pros: Dual adjustability for desired firmness of each sleep partner giving proper spinal alignment and support!
Cons: Must make an adjustment to the Sleep Number if kids or pets join and stay!

Upon awakening on my side, I don't have that "pins and needles" sensation or "dead arm" feeling anymore on my Sleep Number bed that I used to get on my old posturpedic mattress! Regular spring mattresses create pressure points on our hips and shoulders ...

Pros: Comfort, Support and more restful sleep. Helps control back pain.
Cons: A bit pricey but worth it

After 13 years with our Sealy, my wife and I went looking for a new mattress. She suffers from minor back pain so we knew we had to find a good supportive mattress. Prices for a quality spring mattress averaged around $1400 to $1500. We also checked ...

Pros: Better nights sleep! Less tossing & turning! No more pain! Can select your firmness.
Cons: Expensive, but when you think of money spent on other things this can't compare.

Me and my husband slept on a water bed for over 20 years. Anytime we went away, we could never sleep well on any other mattress - at least that is what I thought until we got the select comfort mattress. Over the last several years, I could never get ...

Pros: 20 year limited warranty, well-constructed, lightweight, extremely comfortable!
Cons: Pricey, up to 3 weeks delivery time, but worth it!

I had been experiencing severe lower back pain, to the point of respiratory restriction, for months due to our inner spring. I insisted I thought a Tempurpedic mattress was the answer to my problem, and my husband obliged. We bought it and at first, ...

Pros: Separate sleeping chambers allowing customized comfort. No pressure points on your body.
Cons: Cost

**** UPDATE August 2005**** Had this almost a year now! Traveled a lot for summer vacations and still can't wait to get home to our bed. It is night and day comfort when compared to a typical spring coil. No problems or issues to speak of. We referred ...

Pros: Individual pressure adjustments
12 month zero interest
Ease of assembly
No monthly flip required
Cons: Expensive mattress
Low pressure depression
High pressure sales tactics
Expensive accessories
Increased occurrence of snoring

I have purposely delayed writing this review to mitigate any 'placebo effect' of having spent $3,000.00 on a mattress. First of all it cost us $3K, second of all it is a MATTRESS!  If you cannot tell by the tone of this ...

Pros: Comfortable.  Best sleep I've had in years. 
Cons: Cost too high for what I had to modify.

I had purchased 3 (count 'em) new traditional expensive mattresses in 10 years...Serta, Simmons and lastly a Sterns n Foster.  None of them held up more than a couple of years before I was a miserable sleeper again.  I have chronic back and ...

Pros: Adjustable, able to replace parts
Cons: Little pricey

Even before purchasing this bed I read mixed reviews everywhere. People seem to love it or hate it. I have a bad back and neck and have much less pain sleeping on this bed. Previously I owned a Sealy Posturpedic Crown Jewel and a King Koil (supposed ...

Pros: Great night sleep and adjustable for changing conditions.
Cons: Price, and no signiture confirmation on delivery.

1 month ago I went to the Select Comfort store with my wife to look at the selection they had. I had heard through infomercials (They never lie!) that this was one heck of bed. My current inner spring mattress was about 6 years old and was getting ...

Pros: Comfortable, adjustable
Cons: Weak warranty, Never stop paying for this mattress, Very warm

I am a former store manager for Select Comfort. The truth is the 7000 model is a very comfortable model. The foam that's used is called intralux. It has a rayon topping. The fault with this bed is that there are a number of components. Chambers, base ...

Pros: Adjustable, Warranty, replaceable pillow top.
Cons: Cost, Comfort, Cost to return and Customer Service

I had Lower Back surgery two years ago and have suffered with morning back pain ever since. My wife and I never went cheap when I came to our mattresses and would typically spend $1,500 to $2,000 every 5 to 7 years on a new mattress. While shopping for ...
