I'm thinking of making the jump to a Sleep Number bed and I noticed that two Twin XL mattresses (c2 model) are around $1,200 ($600 each) but a Split King is around $1,600. Aren't these the same things? Shouldn't I just buy two Twin XLs and then get a Split King base? Any insight on this is appreciated!

My husband (50m) and I (42f) have been married for almost 15 years and for the past 2 years I have been sleeping almost exclusively in our “spare” room because the bed is more comfortable and there’s more space that way so we BOTH sleep better. My husband admits that we sleep better now but is still not happy about the situation and he is finally willing to look into upgrading to a sleep number type split king (currently have Queen) My husband likes a much firmer mattress than me and has NO interest in using an adjustable frame so he has suggested getting a twin xl adjustable for me and just a standard flat bed from ikea or something for him in order to save money. Is this a thing that would work at all?? Would it even save money?? I have found ZERO information on the internet about it and am frankly getting pretty frustrated.

My husband and I plan to get a new bed. We’re looking at the split king. My husband prefers hard mattress I like soft. My husband snores like a fog horn and I can’t sleep. My body can’t take the bed we’re in currently and I’ve stumbled upon the sleep number bed. We’ve both said the price is worth it if it truly helps us both sleep and makes our overall living better. Now my question is, is it worth it? We’re looking at just under $10,000 between the mattress, frame, and sheets. Did you find your life/sleep improved with the mattress? Is there something you’d do differently?
