Save smart number

hey guys how's it going and uh welcome to my bedroom yes because today we were talking about this Sleep Number I le bed that we have been using now for a little over a year now be sure to stay tuned for the rest of this video where I show you how you can save a significant amount of money off of one of these beds you should never buy one just on a pure sale or retail and I'll tell you why so let's get started I'm Rob Sutton and I enjoy reviewing tech that we encounter in our everyday lives I also have a serious obsession with modifying everything so follow along as we take a look at tech and it alright guys so we've been using a lot of different beds over the years and one of the reasons for that is I have lower back pain issues from a lot of dumb decisions I'm a no mountain bikes over the course of my life so what ends up happening is if I have a bad sleep or a bad mattress the degenerative disc disease in my lower back will actually shoot nerve pain straight down my legs and it makes for a really uncomfortable day the next day so we've been trying out different options over time to see what would work the best and this is what we are using now and what we will be sticking with probably for the foreseeable future with our memory foams I wasn't able to adjust it based off pain level it was great for support when I was in pain but sometimes it was too stiff and it would actually cause pain and the pillow top sometimes would just be too soft and not provide support and kind of create the same situation so what we ended up doing was looking at the Sleep Number bed because I'd be able to adjust my side depending on how I needed to sleep that night while my wife would be able to keep her super soft plush feel like she always likes to have so let's talk about the buying process and the bed and what I think about it and then go through the entire ordeal and how you can save a lot of money I want first when you go to buy a Sleep Number bed it is a very scripted process on the sales end that's not necessarily a bad thing I'm pretty sure they set these up as franchises Trading the teams and then have them work off of a very specific set of sales guidelines so you are kind of walked through the entire place and given a very specific sales process like I said not really a bad thing but if it feels a little bit pushed and faked that would be why just know that going in once you buy the bed they do have text that come install the bed for you at the house this is a good thing for people that are not so technically inclined because they make sure that everything from the smartphone app to the remote and everything else is set up correctly and then you can use it and that your accounts are set up with Sleep Number before they leave so if you're worried about having to get all this set up that's really all taking care of you during the delivery process so this is the I le version of the bed it's in there I series line there's a C series or several different series what this one gives you is a little bit more of a comfort layer so there is more of a traditional bed feel it also gives you a material over the top of the bed that's supposed to help dissipate heat if you're one of those sleepers I am who turns into an oven as soon as my eyes closed money my wife makes fun of me all the time for it so that material does help dissipate some of that heat that you would not get on their sea level beds or their base level bits we also opted for the adjustable base with this bed and that was crucial and making sure I was comfortable not only is the adjustable base good for if you're one of those people like to watch TV in bed or if you're a snore and your wife just wants to pop your head up for a second so that you quit snoring in her ear but it's been great for me to be able to actually raise my feet as well so this is the flex tooth of feet raised and the head raised so if I'm having lower back plane or leg pain I can actually raise my feet and have that blood flow and comfort level higher so I can sleep better that was one of the other driving factors of getting a new bed as we wanted that adjustable base and it has worked out great now this bed is basically what you would call a glorified air mattress that's how you can adjust the levels of the softness on each side of the bed there's a pump that actually pumps air in and lets air out so one thing to keep in mind with that is the pumps not incredibly quiet and here I'll show you in just a second what that actually sounds like so if you're a light sleeper you are going to want to turn off that automatic feature so that the pump doesn't come on in the middle of the night because it will wake you up it has done it to me in the past another thing to keep in mind with this bed is it is two different bladders so that you can have one side soft one side hard if you wanted to now when you have a varying Delta between two sides it does make the very center feel like it could be sinking so if you're on the harder side and you go to the softer side it does feel like you kind of roll into it so it kind of segregates each side to itself if you want that sinking feeling to go away you have to have both sides set on the exact same setting so that's even all the way across so what this adjustable base also comes with it's a light that's underneath though I love lighting up everything but I thought it was going to be kind of a gimmick when I did find is actually incredibly useful if I have to get up to use the restroom or check on something in the house in the middle of the night I don't have to go grab my phone for a flashlight as I get up and walk out of the room it just lights up and it stays on for a little bit until I get back to bed now it also is dim enough and doesn't hit anyone's eye so it doesn't wake up the other person in the bed as well it's really nice when I have to navigate three boxers in this room I want to make sure I'm not tripping over something as I get out to go check on whatever I need to so it ended up actually being a really nice feature that I thought was gonna be a little bit gimmicky so as I mentioned before this bed does does come with a smartphone app where you can adjust everything that you want to with the bed whether it be the base this is often this scheduling any of that kind of stuff it also comes with what they call sleep IQ technology which actually measures your heart rate and how much you move during the night to give you a sleep IQ score telling you how well you slept that night it then also tracks it so you could see your trends for me personally I found this to be wildly and accurate I can remember several nights from just staring at the ceiling for two hours and it's like hey you've got a great night's sleep so just keep that in mind I don't really know how accurate that could ever be unless you're really moving a lot or you get up out of the bed several times so I find it to be more of a gimmicky feature that I don't put a lot of you know weight in on how well I slept that night but I get with this whole smart trend of everything these days they had to have some feature that gave you a tracking ability to see if you're improving or not but keep in mind it can be pretty inaccurate the bed also comes with a remote that can do all the controls and everything as well I find the menu system and this to be kind of clunky it's so much easier to just grab your smartphone and do a couple touches in your done it does sit by the bed we just find that we don't use it all that often so we did end up getting the sheets and the pillows from Sleep Number as well we were due for new pillows anyway so it was just nice to kind of just bundle it all together one thing to keep in mind with the pillows though is that they have a very slick outer surface to him which makes it so they don't really like pillowcases if you're a person like me that's moves a lot during the night it can get kind of annoying because your pillowcases just kind of want to shift right off into pillow all the time if you have open pillow cases so just keep that in mind when you're purchasing these pillows to the fitted sheet has actually an elastic strap on it that'll go around the bottom of the adjustable part of the bed I found this as crucial with these adjustable bases if you use just a traditional style fitted sheet it has a tendency to really want to pop off if you are adjusting the base at all so when I'd add to it just for my feet or just my head up at all it really didn't want to stay put in that elastic band that the Sleep Number version has actually keeps it on there and makes it so it doesn't pop off the mattress so I found that if you're going to be using the adjustable base like we are it is crucial to get a fitted sheet that actually has that extra band that goes around the base if you don't want to be frustrated in the middle the night what's a sheet popped off the bed so before we get into my overall thoughts and conclusions on this bed let's talk about buying one of these specifically now this is the I le bed and what the le stands for I think is just limited edition what it really is is a model that they have the leak discount on holiday weekends so this bed that says you know five thousand dollars on the website right now we got for twenty five hundred dollars on what I believe was a Memorial Day sale so the trick with these beds is you get the special edition that is in whichever lineup you want but only on holiday weekends because that's when you get the severe discount so if you were to compare this to say like the I eight bed which is in the same series and is actually on an Easter sale right now this whole set up is still five hundred dollars less than the I eight bed is right now on sale so while it is still expensive when you're doing the adjustable base and one of these beds we paid a little over forty three hundred dollars but the I ate version right now is over forty eight hundred dollars while it's on sale so really the trick with these beds if you want to buy one is don't do it on just some little sale and ever buy it.retail wait till those Memorial Day fourth of July weekend sales where they take these special editions and heavily discount them that is really the trick to it you get all the features you want for a lot less money so for example we paid less for this bed than the top-of-the-line c-level bed that doesn't come with the material that dissipates heat and it also comes with an inch less of a comfort foam level so just to put that in perspective that beds on sale right now and more expensive than the next level up with most of the features that you would want all right guys so what are my overall thoughts on the bed one it's really improved our quality of life being able to adjust each side independently my wife gets to keep her super soft and i can adjust mine depending on my pain level at the time it's really increased my overall quality of sleep which was really struggling with the amount of issues I've had with my back and leg so the build quality overall is really good the service level has been great there are little quirks here and there like the pillows being too slick like the pump being too loud but overall once you get it tweaked to your settings it's been a really great bed and I'm able to sleep a lot better than I was on my memory foam or your traditional pillowtop beds because of the adjustability of it so guys now I want to hear from you you have any
