Your Sleep Number setting will be a number between 1-100; the higher the number, the more firm the mattress. Most people have a sleep number between 30 and 60.
Most people have a Sleep Number between 30-60; any lower than 30 or higher than 60 will result in a bed that will (most likely) feel uncomfortably soft or hard.
Our Verdict: What's the Best Sleep Number Alternative? Our expert reviewers chose the Saatva Solaire as the best Sleep Number bed alternative for its high-quality materials, adjustable option, and customization in firmness options.
We recommend sleeping at your Sleep Number® setting for two to five nights. If you're not comfortable after that, try adjusting your setting by 5 or 10. Increasing your setting—for example, from 35 to 40—will provide a firmer mattress. Decreasing your setting—for example, from 35 to 30—will provide a softer mattress.
Because most Sleep Number beds come with two air chambers (so each person can adjust their side to their liking), if one side is significantly more firm or soft than the other, the bed is uneven and is susceptible to sag in the middle.
If you're still in discomfort, Sleep Number recommends decreasing your sleep setting 5-10 points. While no single number will end all of your aches and pains, it's nice that you can experiment with your sleep number setting to find a firmness that will work for your specific body and its needs.
If you're still not comfortable you can try changing your setting by 5-10 and leaving it there for a few nights. Adjusting a little at a time can help you find the perfect combination of support and pressure relief. You might also need a new pillow. Our pillow quiz can help you choose the right pillow.
Air Pedic beds are perhaps the best known Sleep Number alternatives. Made with supportive foam and air chambers that allow you to adjust the firmness, the Air-Pedic 800 is the best option for shoppers who want a Sleep Number experience for a lower price.
Overview. Your Sleep Number setting is impacted by your preferences and factors including: body weight, sleep position and the volume of air in the mattress while you are in bed. We recommend adjusting your Sleep Number setting if you've experienced any changes that impact the feel of your bed.
Your bed doesn't need to be online to adjust your Sleep Number® setting or FlexFit™ base. However, getting your bed online is required if you want your bed to track your sleep or if you want to use Responsive Air™ technology.
We recommend rotating and/or flipping your comfort layers at the same time you flip your top mattress cover. This will help prevent the formation of permanent body impressions in your comfort layer from repeated use in the same area.

Legal issues and controversy
