As others have mentioned a sleep number bed is basically an adjustable air mattress, and to me it felt like it. Especially if you sleep towards the edge you'll have a tendency to start to roll off since the sides aren't rigid and firm like a regular mattress. I guess if you sleep in the center of your "area" then that isn't as big of an issue. If you have a free trial period then it may be worth it to see if it works for you, but I personally wouldn't use one at home again.

For what it’s worth though, we gave it to my grandparents and they have really enjoyed it. They also stay well to their own side and never go near the middle so don’t notice. They like that one can sit up and watch tv while the other reads or sleeps etc.
We bought an “avocado” mattress online after a month of research and it’s been the best mattress I’ve owned.
I also don’t work at Delta, so most of this info could be of little to no value.

I'm actually super glad you brought this up to. I've been looking at sleep number to see if itd be the correct choice.
We have tried all sorts of traditional mattresses (with and without pillow top, and memory foam pillow top) as well as the box order memory foam mattresses. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. gets a body shaped divot in about a year. Said divot has me waking up every moment with back pain. Yet in each case, the divot is juuuuuuust under what is required to get it replaced under warranty. I have yet to find a mattress that holds up over time.
Anyways, that's why I was thinking about a sleep number. At the very least, you could blow it back up if you found it sagging (or it wouldn't do it in the first place). I can't possibly be the only person with this problem.
