Night Air Beds vs Beverly Hills Bed: 12" Queen Air Mattress Comparison

Both brands give each partner their own side, their own air chamber and their own control. The difference shows up on the receipt and in a few build details that matter once the bed is in your room.

Here is the straight comparison between the Beverly Hills Bed 12" Air Adjustable Firmness Mattress and the Night Air Ultra 12" 6-Zone Smart Zone Bed, mattress only and as a complete set with an adjustable base.

Beverly Hills Bed vs Night Air Beds: Side by Side

Prices are starting prices and vary by size. Beverly Hills Bed air mattresses are made to order and ship in roughly 2  weeks. Verify competitor pricing at time of purchase.

12" Air Mattress Only

The Beverly Hills Bed 12" Air Adjustable Firmness Mattress starts at $2,350 and they also carry split top queen air mattresses in 10" and 14" choices. Night air beds does not sell any split top air mattresses.

12" Air Mattress With an Adjustable Base

The gap widens on a complete set. The comparable Night Air set with congruent massaging adjustable bases is more expensive than the Beverly Hills Bed options. 

How the Two 12" Air Beds Are Built

Firmness Control: 50 Settings Per Side vs 6 Zones

Beverly Hills Bed uses one air chamber per side with 50 firmness settings, adjusted from a wireless remote. Night Air splits each side into three zones with a 1 to 100 scale per zone and adds a dedicated lumbar adjustment, controlled by a wired LCD unit.

More zones sound better on paper. In practice most sleepers find one number per side and dial it in once, then leave it alone for months. Six zones means six numbers to tune, and the controls are tethered by a cord rather than wireless.

Comfort Layer: 3" Pillow Top vs 2.5" Gel Foam

The Beverly Hills Bed 12" carries a 3" pillow top with a medium feel, backed by a 5-zone anatomic support layer and a multi-zone posture grid. The pillow top is removable, refluffable and refreshable, so the surface can be maintained rather than replaced.

Night Air uses 2.5" of reversible cooling gel latex foam under an Ice Lux cover. The cover is washable, and flipping the foam changes the feel from plusher to firmer.

Pump in the Rail vs Pump on the Floor

The Beverly Hills Bed pump sits inside the mattress rail, so there is no external pump box, no hose running under the bed and nothing to get damaged.

Night Air Bed has the pump is on the floor with hoses exposed under the bed. 

Warranty, Shipping and Sizes

Beverly Hills Bed backs the 12" air mattress with a 25 year warranty and free shipping to all 48 contiguous states. Night Air offers a 20 year limited warranty with free shipping to the lower 48 states excluding California.

Size range is the other practical difference. Beverly Hills Bed builds the 12" in Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, Split King, Cal King and Split Cal King, plus split top configurations for couples who want independent head articulation without a full split. Every air mattress is made to order and ships in 2 to 4 weeks.
