Titans of Adjustable Smart Beds Unite to Create theX10 With Innovations Never Seen Before

ORLANDO, Fla., Dec. 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Dan Wall, the creator of the original Split Top mattress design and Craig Miller, creator of the original number bed have joined forces to launch an entirely new line of adjustable firmness number bed mattresses.

According to Dan Wall, the new model is the perfect marriage of a Sleep Numberยฎ bed with a Tempur-Pedicยฎ bed. Wall stated, “The new x10 incorporates advanced pliable urethane sleep chambers with a low-profile lock tight edge support system that does not require high-powered magnets to hold the mattress in place when elevated on a power base.”

Miller’s Instant Comfortยฎ company’s design utilizes a medical scale pressure monitoring system with dynamic measuring abilities. Sleep Numberยฎ is the primary competitor to Instant Comfortยฎ and has a virtually monolithic market share of the adjustable firmness mattress industry with over 1.3 billion in annual sales. Miller and Wall plan to be a market disrupter to Sleep Number’sยฎ value proposition by offering a better number bed at dramatically lower prices while continuing product innovation.

As creators of the original numbered air bed, and the original split top mattress design, Miller and Wall are uniquely paired to revolutionize the adjustable firmness industry.
