How to Choose the Right Adjustable Bed
Back to Articles | Next Article »
Purchasing an adjustable bed can take some time or a lot of time depending on the consumer’s motivation and ability to understand facts and product details. What it is not is a spur of the moment, impulse choice.
You wouldn’t walk onto a car lot to purchase a vehicle without doing at least some research upfront. The same goes for adjustable beds. These beds are made by many different brands - some reputable, some not - that offer numerous models and available functions.
To wade through the choices available you will need to know several key components of a good purchase.
A quality electric motor should be of utmost importance. The consumer will need to decide between AC (more durable) and DC (quieter, smaller and less expensive) varieties. The adjustable frame of a bed should have a 50 percent incline ratio at both the foot and head. The user should be able to control the elevation, or other features, of a bed from a reclined position. Whether going with a standard hand control or upgrading to a wireless model this remote is mandatory. Warranty is a clue to quality. The longer the warranty, the better made the bed. Choose accordingly.
Those items should be considered required. Several other options exist that can further enhance the adjustable bed experience.
While adjustable beds work with inner spring mattresses they are served best by memory foam. The body contouring qualities of memory foam are a natural complement to the multiple-position nature of an adjustable bed. Heat and massage are two more options available, usually at extra cost that may be of great value to the consumer based on their need.
