An adjustable air mattress includes a plurality of air chambers having a sleeping surface, an electronic control unit, and an air pump communicatively coupled to the electronic control unit and fluidly coupled to the plurality of air chambers. A plurality of air valves are communicatively coupled to the electronic control unit and are configured to permit or inhibit a release of air within each respective air chambers. A plurality of level sensors are communicatively coupled to the electronic control unit, determine an angle of the sleeping surface, and determine whether the angle of the sleeping surface is within a predetermined level range. When the angle of the sleeping surface is not within the predetermined level range, the electronic control unit controls at least one of the air pump and the plurality of air valves to adjust an amount of air in at least one of the plurality of air chambers.
