My wife and I decided that a split king would provide the flexibility that we need to get a good night sleep, and am glad we did. Elevating my head has eliminated my snoring and now I don't need my dental appliance, which messed with my bite. Mattress Mack at Gallery Furniture was running the Free! Free! Free! deal and if the Astros win it all, we get a free bed, but honestly, it is worth the investment and yes, we are now rooting for the Astros to win the World Series. This from a Yankees fan :-)! Hi-tech base was also a pleasant surprise as it has a lot of bells & whistles and e-mails me in the morning how I slept. Infinite number of positions to make it comfortable for you and we could not be happier with this bed - it's a real game-=changer as far as our health goes.
