I have never been concerned about popping the mattress - it is very well built. If I recall correctly, there is a lifetime warranty on the air chamber? I use the adjustable feature a few times per year... mostly due to back pain. If I blow out my back, I set it firmer. Sometimes if I wake up too early and want to fall back asleep I'll set it to extra soft to make it super comfortable.frapjap wrote:Sleep Number Owners-1. Have or are you concerned that when you're rough housing it with your kids or spouses that you'll break or pop the bed?
2. I prefer this bed for its adjustability to make me comfortable no matter what, but do you always use that perk quite often?
1 - my parents have had one for the past 12 years, and it has seen plenty of rough housing from little kids jumping on it and the like. The best is built amazing, and it is only as of recent that the side my dad sleeps on had developed a small leak, which was instantly taken care of by the company.frapjap wrote:

Never had a problem with sweat or anything on the foam. It's a pretty rubbery foam when you remove the cover. It's always moist and humid here, and my wife keep our house warm. It's really a perfect environment for mold. We have never had a problem with anything like mold, or sweat stink from the bed.frapjap wrote:I have a questions about both beds for their owners because no one can ever give me first hand or honest answers because it is usually a sales person I'm talking to.
Temper owners-1. Does or do you ever worry about sweat and fluids sinking into the memory foam mattress? I know there's a sheet and such, but does the mattress itself have a cover or anything to keep it from absorbing excrement's?
2. Does the lack of bounciness ever bother you when you're getting it on, or does it help?
How did you do this and where did you get the materials? I would be worried about the foam being treated with chemicals or something. We need a new mattress badly, piece of crap Ikea mattress... argh.ishkabibble wrote:The Tempurpedic is really overpriced, so I built one for about $250 about 3 years ago. 8" of high density foam with 4" of memory foam on top of it. I love a soft bed, so it's great. One of the nicest features is that you can't feel the movement of the other person in the bed.
King beds ROCK, especially if you're tall like me. Stupid queen is a bit short on foot space.skydragoness wrote:We're going to get a new mattress on Sunday. Yaaay. Bad part.. it's a King.. it's going to be so expensive (wasn't my idea to get a King ).
