Advances in sleep tech have led to a trickle-down effect of affordable mattresses boasting more comfort features than the budget beds of yesteryear. Case in point: the new Sleep Number c1 smart bed starts at just $599 at Sleep Number and has the adjustable firmness, responsive support, and sleep tracking present in the brand's higher-end models.
The c1 is geared toward "budget-conscious consumers who care about and want to achieve higher quality sleep," according to Lori MacLachlan, VP of Product Management at Sleep Number.
