Adjustable bed frames can help you sleep better and wake up refreshed. Use this guide to help you choose the best model for you:
1. Choose your mattress first
If your old mattress has you tossing and turning throughout the night, a new bed frame won't solve your sleep woes. When you can't remember when you purchased your current mattress, it's probably time for a new one anyway. Head to your local mattress store and test out several styles to determine which is right for you. Be sure to ask the sales representative whether the mattress will work well with an adjustable frame.
2. Account for transportation concerns
Unlike a basic bed frame, which can be disassembled and shipped easily, an adjustable frame may be more difficult to transport. Consider this complication when deciding on a purchase of this size. If you don't plan on moving in the near future, you shouldn't have too much to worry about.
An adjustable bed frame can help you sleep better.3. Consider additional features
There are a wide variety of adjustable frames, each with unique features such as cordless remotes. For instance, the Ease base has a one-touch return-to-flat button, so it's always easy to get out of bed. The Simmons SmartMotion 2.0 Base has a six-level massage system as well as battery backup lowering functionality. This is a long-term purchase, so choose your features wisely.
4. Decide if you need a split frame
If you and your partner like to sleep in different positions, you should consider a split-frame that allows each sleeper to position themselves individually. The TEMPUR-Ergo Collection offers even greater flexibility with its Ergo-Link™ feature that keeps both sides of the bed completely in sync when moving as one unit. Separate or together, you and your partner deserve a good night's sleep.
5. Always test in person before buying
Beds are highly subjective pieces of furniture, and no amount of written description can tell you whether a mattress and frame set will conform to your unique body. If you purchase a mattress or frame online, you risk experiencing trouble sleeping and back pain. Furthermore, returning a mattress to an online vendor can be difficult and time-consuming. Always test in person before making a purchase.
