Leaping pillows on the bed with sleep number bed
Does anyone have a great idea to keep the pillows and spread on the bed when the sleep number bed has to be put in the upright position for travel?
I have thought of large bungee cords, but none big enough and they would have to be hooked together, not convenient. It's a small thing, but would be nice not to have to chase the pillows around or store some place that could be used for other things.

hmmm. don't understand the issue. we have the same retractable bed and our pillows (6 in total) stay on the bed...no problems. we put them against the upright portion of the bed and they all stay in place.

How about a storage 'net', like what you'd see stretched across the back of a car trunk or SUV at the tailgate.

When our bed is in the full upright position for travel, the pillows fall forward and so does the spread. Maybe I need to tuck them behind the mattress head, between the mattress and headboard?

My 2015 Tour has two straps, one on each side anchored to the frame. Each strap meets in the middle just below where the bed folds up and Velcro on the end of the straps keep them together. We do not have a problem with slippage.
Ever tried to pull a Velcro strap apart by pulling on the ends? Not going to happen. They need to be peeled apart.
Also, for the controllers, mine are shortened by bundling them up and wrapping a piece of Velcro around the bundle leaving enough cord to travel with the slide i and out. A Command Hook is on the side of the "night stand" and the loop of the bundle is placed over the hook. Easy access in the middle of the night should one need to change the inflation. Mine are not wireless.

Excellent! I just went to Joanne's Fabric and bought a strap and sewed an adjustable buckle on. Perfect idea. Ours may have come with one, but we bought it lightly used after 2 years!!

We don't like the strap, so we stored ours under our mattress to get it out of the way. We put the bed in the up position for travel and then reposition the pillows AFTER it's in position. Then when we arrive and the bed is down we simply move the pillows into position at the head of the bed.
We've never seen that as a problem.

We have the exact same set up on the coach in our signature. Came from the factory that way.
Haven’t used it much, just as easy to re-arrange the pillows once the slide is out.
