Adjustable Bed Bases

Adjustable bed bases raise and lower the head and foot sections of the bed. They use electric motors or hydraulics to do so. They are also called electric beds or adjustable beds.

Many of our bases, like the Tranquility Base and Ergo Smart Base, come with a wireless remote or app for ease of use. Some models even feature lumbar support for added comfort.

There are many reasons that adjustable beds are becoming increasingly popular. Here are a few benefits:

• Improved Comfort: Find the perfect position when reading, watching TV, or relaxing with your head elevated.
• Reduced Pain: Elevating your head and feet help improve circulation. They ease pain associated with conditions like back pain, acid reflux, and sleep apnea. Our Ergo ProSmart Base even features massage settings for extra relaxation.
• Enhanced Sleep Quality: Create a more comfortable environment to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
• Easier In and Out of Bed: Raising the head of the bed can be helpful for seniors or those with mobility limitations.

Disadvantages include:

• Cost: Adjustable bases are typically more expensive than traditional bed frames.
• Size: They may be larger than a standard bed frame.
• Mattress Compatibility: Not all mattresses are compatible with adjustable bases. But Slumberland offers a wide variety of adjustable base-compatible mattresses. We have innerspring, memory foam, and hybrid models.

No, traditional bed frames are not designed for adjustable bases. Slumberland’s adjustable bases are designed to be used on their own and do not need a separate bed frame. So, your existing bed likely won't work.

Yes, most headboards work with adjustable bed frames. Make sure to check the specifications of both the headboard and the adjustable base to ensure compatibility.

No, not all mattresses are designed to work with adjustable bases. A traditional mattress may not bend properly. This could cause damage to the mattress or the base. Slumberland offers a wide selection of adjustable base-compatible mattresses and bedding. Look for mattresses labeled “adjustable base compatible.”

Most adjustable bed bases are easy to assemble and have clear instructions. Many models only require attaching the legs and plugging in the power cord. We recommend reviewing the online product manual. You can find specific assembly instructions for your base model.

Your best adjustable bed base will depend on individual needs and preferences. Here are a few things to consider:

• Features: Consider which features are most important to you. Features include head and foot adjustability, massage, under-bed lighting, or USB ports. Some of our bases, like the Ergo ProSmart Base, even have built-in zero-gravity positioning to help reduce snoring! And, if you are a couple, you can get beds that are adjusted independently.
• Size: Adjustable bases come in twin, queen, and king sizes to match your mattress. Consider the weight capacity as well. A typical queen adjustable base has a weight capacity of 400-600 pounds.
• Budget: Adjustable bases range in price depending on the features and technology included. We offer options to fit your needs, from the value-driven Tranquility Base to the feature-rich Ergo ProSmart Base.
