Occasionally, our sleepnumber bed will lose 10 to 15 lbs overnight. It seems to happens after moving the mattress or deflating/inflating after travel. I suspect it is leaking from the hose connections since other times it holds air appropriately. Has anyone else experienced this? How can I check the hose connections and how can I seal them if leaking?

You can try pumping it up and spraying a soapy solution on the fittings. You will see bubles if the fittings are leaking.

I noticed that we have to readjust settings when temperature changes, such as warm engine after driving and outside temps dropping.

Jim is right, I went thru this a couple of months ago. Use soapy spray on fittings. Mine had a cracked fitting on the end of the plastic tube. The tube gets kinked inside the foam frame of the mattress. Called Sleepnumber and they sent me a repair kit with several fittings in it, free of charge.

We had the same problem. Our solution-DW called the Sleepnumber people, explained the situation and they sent out a new air mattress. Haven't had a problem w/ the new mattress.

I would like to thank you for your post and everyone else for their response! Yes, we have also had issues. Ours loses pressure overnight, but only on one side. We also note that when travelling and expect altitude change we have to adjust it prior to travel or it balloons up!

We also have another issue going on right now. It appears that the support for the bed (hinged wooden piece) is too small for the bed size (king) and so the foam outer frame is separating from the bottom of the unit...tearing at the seam where they are joined. Anyone notice that going on? Are your beds fully supported on the underside?
