The TV commercials for them seem to run day and night. And they are currently the buzz among mattress shoppers.
I'm referring, of course, to the Sleep Number / Select Comfort bed and the Tempur-pedic bed.
Is one better than the other? To help find an answer, my research team has conducted exhaustive mattresses research by collecting information from thousands of actual mattress owners. The information below is based on our research findings.
Comfort
Both beds are considered comfortable by the clear majority of their owners. Tempur-pedic is mainly comfortable because the memory foam is excellent at reducing pressure points on your body. And the Sleep Number is mainly comfortable because it lets you adjust the firmness level to your preference. Advantage: Tie
Odor
Many new mattress owners complain that their mattress gives off a smell for a while initially. This is usually the result of the manufacturing or packaging process. While Sleep Number has some complaints from owners about odor, Tempur-pedic has somewhat more. Advantage: Sleep Number
Price
Both beds can cost thousands of dollars, and owners often complain about the price. On average, however, Tempur-pedic tends to be more expensive. Advantage: Sleep Number
Motion Transfer
Motion transfer has to do with the amount of movement you can feel when laying on the bed. For example, a bed with low motion transfer will allow one person to move on the bed without another person on the bed noticing it. Both Sleep Number and Tempur-pedic do admirably in this area, but Tempur-pedic has less motion transfer properties. Advantage: Tempur-pedic
Suitable for Love Making
Owners of both beds have some complaints in this area. However, some also praise the beds for their suitability for love making. Overall, however, the Tempurpedic bed has fewer comments one way or the other on this issue. Advantage: Tempurpedic
