Select Comfort Mattress Sleep Number 7000

Pros: Easy to move, warranty, change firmness, dual chambers, Little to no movement
Cons: Check periodically to make sure there has been no slight loss of air from chambers.

After doing a lot of research, we decided to but a sleep number 7000 bed by Select Comfort. This is the best investment we have made in any piece of furniture. We both have bad backs, and sleeping on a sagging bed for years didn't help. Our back were so out of place, that we found ourselves slowly adjusting the mattress each week. What felt comfortable at first, slowly changed as our backs straightened out. We went from a 25 to a 55 sleep number over a few months. What this made us realize is that when you buy a bed and you try it out, it may feel comfortable at first, but as your body changes, you have a hard physical day or you just get older, you have different needs. Now, whenever we need something softer to compensate for some sore muscles from overdoing it - just change the bed. Husbands bercidis went away in his shoulder and we have no more lower back pain.

Pros: Adjust to my body no matter what position I sleep in. No permanent lumps.
Cons: Price a little shocking at 3500 but it's worth it. Needs deep pocket sheets.

Coming from the military I thought I could sleep on anything, and I could but no comfortably. When my husband and I got our first bed together we bought a wave-less water bed thinking it would help my aching back...wrong. So we went in search of that perfect bed. After trying several different types we found our local Select Comfort store.
We were surprised on how comfortable they were. Little pricey at first glance. But we decided to give it a try. We really would be out much if we didn't like it. So we purchased the 7000 model in an Eastern King.
We have been sleeping on it for about 9 months now and I wont say that it cured my aching back but it certainly helped. I do not wake up just wanting to go back to sleep to escape the pain, I actually feel like I got real sleep. This may sound a little like a line but most of the time I feel like slept like I did when I was a kid.

Pros: Very comfortable at first.
Cons:

Very limited warranty. Owner responsible for return costs. Materials not durable and short life span

I am 6'1", 195 pound. I've owned my bed for approx. three years now. Pump was replaced after three months. Bed is worn to a point that it should be replaced.

I sleep alone. I have rotated the foam in the pillow top as directed, foam has compressed, especially the edge where I sit to enter/exit the bed and at my shoulders across the bed. Bed 'hammocks" worse directly in the center (even though I have the twin air chamber queen size, both chambers set the same). Two people cannot sleep in the bed as they will roll together in the sunken center. Company says I must replace the entire bed, cannot replace only the pillow top foam. Also must personally package the entire bed, take to UPS, pay for the return shipping. Can only receive a 'refurbished' bed with what remains of my original warranty.

Warranty does not cover the entire cost of the 'new' refurbished bed. Warranty is pro-rated, very limited. Poorly made parts. Frame/'base' were warped, didn't fit together. Plastic parts make noise when bed moves. Air chambers do not hold pressure. Pump must be frequently "rebooted".

Pros: you can say you have a sleep number bed..big deal
Cons: pricey,not nearly as good as advertised.

i was tempted to call the sales person at the particular store my wife and i bought our 7000 king. my plan was to tell her that i wanted to thank her for the bed and say that the bed actually has made me more money. since i sleep worse than ever, constantly toss and turn, and each time i do turn,i wake up, i just get up at 3 or 4 in the morning as that's when i have been waking up since we've gotten the bed(about a month). my wife likes it but does admit that she tosses and turns more also. for 4000.00 i would really have expected more

Pros: Friendly Customer service
Cons: Air mattresses leak - Home Delivery Pickup lost record

We purchased the model 7000 King set. Almost immediately, my wife noticed that her side was much too soft by the morning. Sure enough, despite setting it for 55 it was 20 to 30 by the morning. We followed all instructions, including switching the hoses and installing the replacement bladder that was sent. We continued to have the problem. She would wake up in the middle of the night and have to refill, which would wake me up. We gave up and called customer service to arrange for "Home Delivery" to get the mattress. A $200 service. They picked it up, but now, two weeks later still no refund. Customer service claims "Home Delivery" has "lost" the bed and they are investigating. We are currently out $3,200.

If you are thinking about purchasing from this company, call their cust. service 1-800-472-7185. Listen carefully, they have an option for "Air loss" problems. Danger Will Robinson!!! Steer Clear.

Pros: NO PROS WHAT SO EVER
Cons: CHEAP, CHEAP, COMPANY WON'T RETURN EMAILS OR CALL YOU BACK.

MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE OWNED THE 7000 SLEEP NUMBER BED FOR 2 YEARS. WE HATE IT. I HAVE NOT HAD A GOOD NIGHT SLEEP SINCE OWNING THIS BED. I HAVE CALLED THE COMPANY AND GET NO RESPONSE. THE PUMP WAS REPLACED TWICE DUE TO THE FLUCTUATING OF THE NUMBERS. I WAKE UP SORE ALL OVER, BACK STIFFNESS, BONE BONE, YOU NAME IT. I HAVE BEEN SLEEPING ON MY COUCH. I WISH I HAD READ THESE REVIEWS BEFORE SPENDING OVER 3OO0 DOLLARS FOR THIS CAMP OUT BED. IT IS CHEAP, THE MATTRESS SINKS IN THE MIDDLE. THE EDGES SAG, THE FOAM IS NOT OF GOOD QUALITY. I TRIED PUTTING A MEMORY FOAM ON TOP AND STILL NO LUCK. I AM NOW IN THE MARKET FOR A GOOD OLD FASHION SPRING BED. DON'T BE SOLD ON THIS HORRIBLE BED. LIKE I SAID THIS IS A NIGHTMARE FROM BED HELL.

Pros: NONE
Cons: NOT WORTH THE MONEY

MY HUSBAND AND I BOUGHT A SLEEP # BED OVER THE SUMMER. WE'VE HAD THE BED FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS. I HAVE TO SAY I DON'T FEEL REFRESHED IN THE MORNING. WE SPENT OVER $2400. ALL I CAN SAY IS I WISH I WOULD OF READ THE REVIEWS AND DONE MORE HOMEWORK ON THIS PURCHASE. YOU LIVE AND YOU LEARN!! ITS LIKE A GLORIFIED AIR MATTRESS.

Pros: If any, the remote control is easy to operate.
Cons: This bed is just an expensive remote controlled air mattress.

This bed is proof that washed-up tv stars will say anything for a buck. I hope Lindsay Wagner can sleep at night, because my wife and I sure can't.

1. First pump lasted only 4 months, and replacement also leaks
air slowly.
2. Special deep pocket sheets are required which are more expensive and hard to find.
3. It does not matter that it has two seperate air "chambers" in it because it sinks in the middle which is where both of us end up every night...in the sink hole in the middle of our 3600 dollar nightmare of a bed.

Pros: Comfortable bed when the pump is holding air properly.
Cons: The pump only lasted 3 years and the warranty is for 20 years.

Buyers beware is not as good as most think!! The sleep number warranty after 2 years takes 20% off the top plus 4% for each year from the beginning. So if your pump fails at 3 years 2 months, you will need to pay for 20% plus 4yrs X 4% or the first 36% of the cost of a new $450 pump. (approx $180 to your doorstep). Then if your pump fails again, your warranty starts at the beginning even though you bought a new pump.

The bed has never been moved. It is sitting exactly were it was plugged in 3years 2 months ago. I bet in the 3 years the remote has not been used more than 20 times.

Pros: Very comfortable, and affordable.
Cons: Upset that I didn't have one before.

I have had a Sleep Number 7000 model for almost five years now, and it's been nothing but awesome!

I don't toss and turn nearly as much trying to get comfortable, I get back pain relief, and I feel great when I wake up in the morning.

The last time I threw my back out, I raised my Sleep Number 10 points, and in a couple of days, it felt better because my lower back had extra support that it needed. A lot like an adjustable lumbar support in a really nice car.

Pros: Adjustable, replaceable pillowtop
Cons: Poor customer service, cost to return and exchange

I purchased the 5000 model at first, to hard and "plastic" feeling exchanged it for the 7000 model which is acceptable, the difference being the 7000 has more softness with a thicker mattress pad. The problem is the exchange, they didn't credit the full amount for the 5000 model and I have lost $800 when I should of been out only for shipping and set up. Ive been unable to get an explanation for this, one rep said "don't you think the 7000 model is worth it". This frustrated me further and decided to return the 7000 model for full refund but found out I would lose even more money paying to return it.

I wish I had paid closer attention to the other reviews about the return/exchange problems.

The 7000 model is acceptable but not worth the hassle and loss of $800.

Pros: No more shoulder or hip pain.
Cons: 1 Wireless remote. Wish it was 2.

I have had my bed for 3 yrs now and I get the most wonderful pressure reduction that I sleep through the night.
It's like a cloud! I hate to go on vacation because I miss my bed. I'm so glad that I decided to buy it.

Pros: Nice concept.
Cons: It really doesn't work.

Do not buy this mattress. There is no way that you can really understand how it is going to be in the long term within the 30 day money back guarantee. The air chamber technology is poor and in my bed, at least, the air leakage was so much that I woke up in agony every morning. Also, my sleep number was radically different in the morning than the night before. Needless to say, customer service have been awful. They are lucky I am not suing them and sending them my medical bills.

This is poor science; don't be fooled. Stick to a traditional mattress.

Pros: Cannot think of any?
Cons: Too many to list.

My wife and I purchased a 7000 series king bed less than a year ago. We have already replaced the motor THREE times, and it still does not work properly. The advertisement states that you can choose a “number” that is right for you, but they neglected to tell us that variations of up to 㦔” can occur each night. This bed was very expensive, and my wife and I have had terrible back problems ever since we purchased the bed. After repeated complaints and correspondence with Select Comfort, they have basically stopped trying to help us, and have told us (in not so many words)… Sorry, but there’s nothing we’re going to do about it. I would strongly advise everyone to stay away from this bed.

Pros: in very nice for 6 mouths
Cons: the bed moves alot when people get into it and leaves it.

The bed was very comfortable the first few mouths but then it sunk in at the head. It made me feel like I was sleeping in a whole. I call the company and they replace it with no problem. In few more mouths it did it again and again every 6 mouths I had to replace the cover. After 3 years they want me to pay $160 dollar to replace it and it will go up 4% every year after that. I try to call the company but with no luck. You like the bed but you better off buying a new bed with the money you spend on the bed you can buy 4 matters. The bed also sinks and raised when people get into it and out. When you roll over the whole bed moves. .
