	Basis of Presentation
	We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 of Select Comfort Corporation and 100%-owned subsidiaries (“Select Comfort” or the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and they reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 28, 2014, and December 28, 2013, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Our historical and quarterly consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future period.
	Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2013 and other recent filings with the SEC.
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods. Our critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, asset impairment charges, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition.
	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Select Comfort Corporation and our 100%-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	New Accounting Pronouncements
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. Accordingly, we will adopt this new guidance beginning in fiscal 2017. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this new guidance and management is currently evaluating which transition approach to use. Management does not expect this new guidance to materially impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

	We did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during the periods presented.
	At June 28, 2014 and December 28, 2013, we had $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of debt and equity securities that funded our deferred compensation plan and are classified in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We also had corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities of $1.1 million and $1.1 million at June 28, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, which are included in other long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The majority of the debt and equity securities are Level 1 as they trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable us to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. Unrealized gains/(losses) on the debt and equity securities offset those associated with the corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities.

	Our $20.0 million Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as amended, is an unsecured revolving credit facility that matures on August 31, 2016. The Credit Agreement contains an accordion feature that allows us to increase the amount of the line from $20.0 million to up to $50.0 million in total availability, subject to lender approval.
	Any borrowings under the Credit Agreement will, at our request, be classified as either LIBOR Loans or Adjusted Base Rate (“ABR”) Loans (both as defined in the Credit Agreement). The rate of interest payable by us in respect of loans outstanding under the revolving credit facility is: (i) with respect to LIBOR Loans, the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the interest period then in effect, plus 1.25%; or (ii) with respect to ABR Loans, the ABR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) then in effect for the Daily One-Month LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus 1.50%, or the prime rate. We are subject to certain financial covenants under the Credit Agreement, including minimum tangible net worth, a requirement to maintain a minimum amount of cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities, and to maintain at the administrative agent cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities equal to the amount the lenders are committed to lend under the Credit Agreement.
	At both June 28, 2014, and December 28, 2013, $20.0 million was available under the Credit Agreement, we had no borrowings and we were in compliance with all financial covenants. We had no outstanding letters of credit as of June 28, 2014 or December 28, 2013.

	Under our profit sharing and 401(k) plan, eligible employees may defer up to 50% of their compensation on a pre-tax basis, subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. Each calendar quarter, we may make a discretionary contribution equal to a percentage of the employee’s contribution. During the three months ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013 our contributions, net of forfeitures, were $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013 our contributions, net of forfeitures, were $1.8 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

	Sales Returns
	The accrued sales returns estimate is based on historical return rates, which are reasonably consistent from period to period, and is adjusted for any current trends as appropriate. If actual returns vary from expected rates, sales in future periods are adjusted.

	Balance at end of period	$	9,194		$	5,805
	(1) Acquired sales return reserve resulted from the acquisition of Comfortaire Corporation in the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
	Warranty Liabilities
	We provide a 25-year limited warranty on our beds. The customer participates over the last 23 years of the warranty period by paying a portion of the retail value of replacement parts. The estimated warranty costs, which are expensed at the time of sale and included in cost of sales, are based on historical trends and warranty claims rates incurred by us and are adjusted for any current trends as appropriate. Actual warranty claim costs could differ from these estimates. We regularly assess and adjust the estimate of accrued warranty claims by updating claims rates for actual trends and projected claim costs.

	(1) Acquired warranty reserve resulted from the acquisition of Comfortaire Corporation in the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
	Legal Proceedings
	We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements with respect to any of these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. With respect to currently pending legal proceedings, we have not established an estimated range of reasonably possible additional losses either because we believe that we have valid defenses to claims asserted against us or the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of discovery that would enable us to establish an estimate. We currently do not expect the outcome of these matters to have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Litigation, however, is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that the ultimate outcome of one or more claims asserted against us could adversely impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We expense legal costs as incurred.
	On August 23, 2013, we filed a complaint in U.S. District Court in the District of Minnesota against Gentherm, Inc. seeking a declaratory judgment that Select Comfort be named as an assignee of certain patents asserted against Select Comfort by Gentherm or in the alternative that the asserted patents are not enforceable or are invalid or that Select Comfort and its products do not infringe any valid claim of the asserted patents. This complaint was filed after Gentherm asserted in a letter that Select Comfort’s recently introduced DualTemp™ layer product infringed certain patents owned by Gentherm. Subsequently, Gentherm filed counterclaims alleging infringement of its patents and seeking various legal and equitable remedies, including injunctive relief, treble damages and attorney’s fees. We believe the claims asserted by Gentherm are without merit, and we intend to vigorously pursue our claims and defend the claims asserted by Gentherm.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Business and Basis of Presentation, Policy	'
	We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 of Select Comfort Corporation and 100%-owned subsidiaries (“Select Comfort” or the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and they reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 28, 2014, and December 28, 2013, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Our historical and quarterly consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future period.
	Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2013 and other recent filings with the SEC.
Use of Estimates, Policy	'
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods. Our critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, asset impairment charges, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition.
Consolidation, Policy	'
	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Select Comfort Corporation and our 100%-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy	'
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. Accordingly, we will adopt this new guidance beginning in fiscal 2017. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this new guidance and management is currently evaluating which transition approach to use. Management does not expect this new guidance to materially impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Stockholders' Equity, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	The cost of stock repurchases is first charged to additional paid-in-capital. Once additional paid-in capital is reduced to zero, any additional amounts are charged to retained earnings.
