Within the past two years three of our children have “left the nest.” The fourth one left five years ago. And each time a child leaves they ask the same question, "what type of bed should I buy?"

Our answer is always the same. We bought our Sleep by Numbers bed sixteen years ago and we love it. We haven’t had to replace it or repair it in the past sixteen years and both think it's great for sleeping.

Our children always seem to make up their own minds. One bought a mattress from Amazon. It came compacted in a box and, for several hours we watched it as it slowly expanded. Another bought a Tempur-Pedic bed. They are all happy with their choices

None of our children followed our lead and bought a Sleep by Numbers bed, despite our stellar reviews. What sort of bed do you sleep on?
