You can also check into the Select Comfort "sleep by number" bed. Been using them for 14 years now. Have a king in my house and a queen in the motorhome. NO MORE BACK ACHES OR PAIN. They have both been trouble free....

We just got a Select Comfort, and aren't quite sure if we like it yet. I think it's uncomfortable, so we've purchased a (very expensive) pad to go on top, hoping that will make the surface more comfy.

Also, the settings seem to change spontaneously - and Customer Service hasn't been providing very good service.

It seems like such a great idea...

I sell an alternative brand of these as well and I don't ever recommend them as I have the highest occurrance of problems with them. Anytime you have valves and motors you will have problems. A lot of people do love them though.

I never, not once have had a service call on visco memory foam.

The sleep lab that I had my two overnights at used these "air" type beds. In the middle of the night I made the mistake of adjusting it to a firmer setting. The fan revved up like an air raid siren. I think I woke up everybody in the place.

As much as I rock and roll over all night, I found them uncomfortable to my elbows. Also, I did not like the motion. I really don't like water beds even though I sell those as well.
