Sleep Number in Monty

Had a SN bed in out TT but had a storage compartment behind the bed for pump. Bed in this rig is in slide...storage inder bed only goes 1/2 to 2/3 under mattress. How have you installed air lines?

There should be room under the bed platform at the head to run the lines. Although there are hydraulics there on some models, there is room for the air lines as well. We are fortunate the there is an outside storage compartment beneath the head of our bed which simplified the installation somewhat. In your case, if you have the will, there is a way!

We just purchased a brand new SN for the Montana. The pumps are much smaller than previous in fact on the 3402 the pump is along side the bed at the very front. It will not be a problem go take a look at the new model SN beds.

Is that with a queen bed or a king Rich? I know our King sized SN leaves about an inch on each side of the slide walls. Our pump is under the bed in the storage compartment where a dedicated receptacle was placed just for the pump, nothing is visible.

I used a hole saw to cut two holes, one each side, at the head of the bed. Took the plywood off. At the head to put pump in there and drilled hole out side for power cord. Ours is king sn mattress. John

It is the queen bed Bingo. The pump is out of the way on the closet side of the bed. We had the bear bed before because the pump was built into the mattress and was surprised at the small size on the SN pump. It would be a easy task to route it under the bed and there is plenty of room under there but it was not necessary in our case..

Is this the RV Premier SN? Like CW sells? Where did you find the best pricing?

RV Premier is what we have, best price was from Camping World, but unfortunately, you have to wait until they go on sale. The internet pricing was the lowest we could find and ordered online.

We purchased ours at a S.N outlet at the Florida Mall in Orlando this winter. Don't remember what model it was but it is a standard 60X80 queen. They were having a sale and it was way considerably less than C.W at the time.
