RV mattress replacement

Took the Sleep Number King from our Home, it really is nice we won't be without one!

I just got home on July 3rd 10 PM after being stuck in NY for almost 2 months, I think I am going to scratch the 250 pound bed off my list. I am under 250 myself but my 2 dogs add 70 pounds and although I don't a steady girlfriend at the moment I hope things change before the trip I plan on taking in the fall. I guess it will come down to one of the two major companies. I am planning on getting one for the house also so maybe I can get a deal if I buy 2 of the same model.

invested in a new $3000 matress for home, and got the mattress place to give me 40% off a simular but a little lower end mattress sized for my unit, about a 12 inch thick pillow top, just the right firmness, for just under a grand.




keep in mind that up here in Canada our prices can be as much as double what south of the border from us pays

Have had a "sleep number" bed for 19 years, before they had numbers. Love it. Moved it from mh to mh. We have been fulltiming for the past 9 years. You do have to remember let some air out when going into the higher elevations 4000 ft and over. We have just now had to replace the pump. It was slowly let air out. Select Comfort was very helpful in trouble shooting. Pro rated the pump based on a 20 year warranty. Good company and they stand behind there product.

I am glad someone brought this topic up again because I posted a thread a while back and I am getting ready to make a purchase I noticed this have changed forum member trnfla found a mattress that costs way less than the ones I have been looking at.

I am considering a PERSONAL COMFORT mattress which seems to be a less expensive better quality mattress than the sleep number bed. But the link to THIS $850 MATTRESS has me tempted to go with that one instead of the other two more expensive brands

In reference to the $850 bed...I'd be skeptical of an air chamber that only had a 250 lb weight limit...

Silver Corvette, last night I did not have any issues with the pump and my back is starting to recover after sleeping on my old mattress with a 2" foam topper for the last month. I like extremely soft beds this is why I got the air mattress. Had one at home and now am FT in RV due to marriage issues.

This mattress has dual chambers with a firm foam rail around the outer part of the mattress so it supports you when you sit on the side. There is no foam between the two chambers, which I think is smart due to the bed only being 60" wide.

On top of the air chambers there are two additional different types foam sections, then the top is zippered on with another padding on top that you can see in the pictures on the website. This makes the bed 12" high which is better then the lower costs units on the other sites.

The air pump is seperate unit with two wired controllers that have a number readout so you can determine the number that works for you and long enough wires to route different ways. They also have a memory function setting.

It was easy to install, had to add an outlet under the bed, this was easy due to the wiring for the outlet on top of bedstand was accessable to cut to add the outlet.

The pump is very quit when inflating the bed.

Hope this helps with your decision.

I went this route due the cost difference and am happy thus far.

We too have the Select Comfort (sleep number) bed in an RV King size...love it also!

Had an off brand airbed prior to this and had an issue with one of the chambers...used a blow up air bed mattress inside the cover until a replacement chamber was received...worked great...just did not have any adjustment capability. The difference in quality of the chambers between the off brand and Select Comfort is like night and day!

Sleep number here also. Those folks just gave us a new pump with the remote controls at no cost. We just adjust the pressure a little as we go up and down the mtns.

Yes, Sleep Number, Altitude - bleed or increase air. Added Memory foam from Costco, made it better. Have had it in our rig for 4 years. Select Air recently gave us a new pump and controller for free
