The Inner Workings of Sleep Number Mattresses
Sleep Number® mattresses are designed with two primary components: an adjustable air chamber and a responsive foam layer. Curious about how these innovative beds operate? Keep reading:
Features of Sleep Number® mattresses:
Air chamber: This inflatable section has been widely used for outdoor sleeping solutions. When fully inflated, it offers a firm, supportive feel. Partially deflated, it creates a softer surface tailored to comfort.
Memory foam layer: Originally developed by NASA, this foam adjusts to body heat by increasing its softness. When body warmth touches the foam, it molds to the sleep position, distributing weight evenly. When unoccupied, it reverts to its original shape.
Personalized comfort: Sleep Number® beds allow each sleeper to control their side independently. Each side contains its own air chamber with foam edges, enabling adjustable firmness to meet individual preferences.
Premium features: Higher-end models include an additional plush top layer, often filled with down, providing extra softness and luxury to the sleep surface.
This overview explains how Sleep Number® beds function. Equipped with this understanding, you can make a more informed choice when selecting your ideal mattress.
