regardless of the size of the mattress, you can adjust the lumbar and shoulder areas independently.check their website:

About me:
- 6'3"
- 320lbs
- very muscular; not much "natural padding"
- wide shoulders compared to waist
- tend to be warm all the time
- mostly back sleeper but like to start off on my side for the first 30 minutes to 1 hour
I've been sleeping happily on a Comfortaire (Sleep Number clone) for the past 12 years. Sadly, my beloved Comfortaire has sprung a leak. They want $130 for a new air bladder and it isn't even the right height. Apparently, they stopped making 9" tall mattresses some time...

I bought two of these to do a cheap "risk free" in-home sleep trial on latex. Other buyers have written in the product comments that the topper is 20 ILD dunlop. I'm skeptical... I've read that Classic Brands is the same company as Dormia if that helps at all. I'm looking for a determination of talalay/dunlop as well as an ILD rating. I'd like to use my experience with these toppers to design an all latex DIY mattress so any help on the likely ILD of the toppers will be greatly appreciated.
I do NOT recommend this topper! I ordered two of them. After removing the boxes, I found that the plastic bags covering both toppers had very large sections ripped open. The tears were large, big...

Latex is nice, & will likely sleep cooler, but the performance of quality polyurethane is underrated around here.
I just have to agree with Sara that once you find a setup that actually works for you, I'd stick with it. Going max inflation, then fine tuning until it just starts to contour sounds great. Unless the other problems, the split bladder & noise etc. you really just can't live with (maybe the brand name version is better in those regards?), then of course it's time to experiment. The second setup you listed sounds better. That 1" 12ild layer might as well not even be there under you, & especially if it's free shipping start with as few layers as possible- if it's all the same price getting them one layer at a time., &...

They want $130 for a new air bladder and it isn't even the right height. Apparently, they stopped making 9" tall mattresses some time ago. They want me to take a 6" air bladder and a 3" slab of foam as replacement. Somehow that doesn't seem like the right thing to...

Thanks for the quick response! Did you notice any pressure on your shoulders when you slept on your side even if you were on a soft setting? Is there anything someone who has no experience with airbeds should know before buying? I am familiar with a few of the cons such as potential mold...

Thanks for the quick response! Did you notice any pressure on your shoulders when you slept on your side even if you were on a soft setting? Is there anything someone who has no experience with airbeds should know before buying? I am familiar with a few of the cons such as potential mold issues (I have read those have been fixed for the most part), sag in the center (I have read this is worse with sleep number beds due to using foam in between the dual air chambers), assembly required and some maintenance necessary (not a problem for me), and pump noise. Should I go with a dual chamber or single chamber? It seems to me like any issues with dual chamber such as unequal firmness settings can be remedied...
