Among full-time hammock sleepers, did anyone go from sleeping on a sleep number bed to the hammock full time? I wonder if there would be an "up-tick" in comfort and back health going from an air mattress to a hammock like there is (usually) when going from a foam and spring mattress to a hammock... Anyone have this experience?

Mountains have a dreamy way
Of folding up a noisy day
In quiet covers, cool and gray.

Surely, God could have made a better way to sleep.
Surely, God never did.
I offen though hammocks were for the outdoors. But since looking and tring out things and looking up history of it and Gliagins inland TV show. I thought while in collage and having little to no money how cool would it be to sleep in one. I found that in most things its great but to share not so great. That other thing when you are having relations with a special someone its intresting on what you find that works and don't work.When you find your notch you have away. But! anyways a hammock is fun when single and not so much married unless you have someone that loves to do the same. I love it when I can and I love it when I am in the dog house. At times its better then any bed.. That is my story and I aprove of this message..

The sleep number is inflatable, but in no way like an air-mattress! It is an awesome bed, especially if you have the model with the memory foam top like ours
I love my hammock, no better way to sleep in the woods. But I could never trade my sleep number bed for a full time hammock!!
Not air, but I went from water to a hammock. Yes, I'm a product of the 1970s and continued to sleep on a waterbed well into my 30s. Not the free flowing mattresses of yesteryear, but the high-end, very expensive, waterbed mattresses that are currently out there. Difference was still night and day between the bed and the hammock. I was never comfortable on a traditional mattress, but really thought I was getting the best there was to get from the waterbeds. I was sooooooo wrong.
Trust nobody!
After camping and hiking and sleeping in the hammock for a few days, then get home and lay down on the bed to go to sleep; I find it difficult to get comfortable, need to readapt to the bed. Haven't flipped to sleepng in the hammock fulltime yet.
Right, my sleep-bed numbers (from Clark) are 98 and 108. Inches. And maybe a bit more than the 83.33333 that is popular here.
I read the comments on the other thread re. sleep number beds, have been using one for over 10 yrs., and every morning, aches and pain. Hammock, now that is nice. No aches and pain. My wife loves the sleep number, I love the hammock, but alas, not much chance of a hammock in the house.
I (we) have a sleep number bed that has been is use for several years now. Three years ago I could not longer sleep in it because of the back pain and arms going numb so I switched to sleeping in my hammock full time. The wife still uses the sleep number bed and I have my hammock on a stand a few feet away, we are both happy now.
Been using the Sleep Number bed for 15 years now......
Sometimes sweat in it. But my back feels the benefits.

I like sleeping in the hammock over the mattress because the hammock is so much cooler, and I dont have to run the AC nearly as much at night to stay comfortable. That alone saves me a ton of money. But, when the girlfriend is over the hammock has to step aside. She doesnt care for it.
with two m's, like "hammock."
