There is nothing worse than waking up in the morning from a night of sleep feeling worse than you did before you went to sleep. That’s how I felt every morning after I awoke from a less than comfortable night of sleep on my old mattress. So you can image how ecstatic I was when I received an email asking me if I wanted to review a Sleep Number m7 Memory Foam Bed. I obviously didn’t need to think for more than a second before replying YES!
Features:
- Three inches of exclusive Sleep Number CoolFit™ foam with gel technology provide a cool, soothing sleeping surface.
- CoolFit foam is naturally contouring and more breathable compared to the leading memory foam brand.
- Exclusive Sleep Number DualAir™ technology lets sleepers adjust firmness on each side of the mattress for their ideal level of comfort.
When delivery day arrived I was interested to see how the bed was put together so I peeked in on the two men were setting it up. Never having a Sleep Number bed I was surprised to see that they didn’t bring a mattress in the door but they explained to me that the two mattress chambers were full of air so that’s why I didn’t see a big bulky mattress. Here are some pictures of the delivery and setup:

I couldn’t wait to sleep in our bed the first night but first I had to “personalize” the bed. The Sleep Number Memory Foam Bed is unique because it has DualAir™ technology that lets sleepers adjust firmness on each side of the mattress for their ideal level of comfort. I followed the directions and laid down on the mattress on my side of the bed so that I could find my “number”. This number determines the firmness of each side of the bed. I was told to start at the highest number {and firmest mattress} and go down in increments of 5 from there until the mattress was comfortable. I started at 100 and went down all the way to 35. I felt like I was laying on a cloud. The bed underneath me was so soft. I laid down and closed my eyes.
I had a hard time falling asleep that first night, and the next night after that. I was used to sleeping on a king size bed and this one was a queen size so it took some getting used to a smaller bed. I thought maybe I had chosen a number that was wrong for me but I remembered that I had been told to sleep on the bed for a few days before changing the number. With this in mind I slept on the bed again and was happy to find that it was a little easier to fall asleep and I felt better upon waking in the morning. This continued for a few days until I found myself getting comfortable the second my head hit the pillow.
And how do I feel when I wake up? AMAZING! It feels wonderful to wake up and not have a sore back. After sleeping on my Sleep Number m7 Memory Foam Bed I could not imagine ever sleeping on a regular old mattress again.

(Disclosure: I was given a Sleep Number m7 Memory Foam Bed to review but all thoughts are my own.)
oh, how yummy that would be to sleep on a memory foam mattress. I have a new mattress, but its not memory foam…cant afford it. But i did buy a memeory foam bad for my Labrador Retriever. She loves it. I love it. It never compressess permanently. Always bounces back. Its like 4 yrs old and as firm as day one. My lucky dog
We sleep on a memory foam mattress, but it doesn’t have the number bed this one does, and it doesn’t have the cooling feature either. We love our memory foam mattress, but it does get hot. Sounds like this one doesn’t — I wish you had said more about that, but if you hadn’t slept on a plain memory foam mattress before, I guess you wouldn’t have anything to compare it to.
Great review. I really enjoyed reading it and from the looks of it, I think I’m gonna consider buying one for our bedroom too. The holidays is coming soon, this will be a good treat for us at home.
