Does an adjustable bed improve sleep?Are adjustable beds good for back pain

Certainly. After all, this is why adjustable bases exist – to improve the quality of your sleep. This is their biggest selling point, this is why people buy them, and they do work amazingly well in that, and many other respects.

Every person sleeps a bit differently and every person has that preferred position they sleep perfectly in. This is where adjustable bases come into play. You take the remote control, you modify the position of panels, and you change the shape of your base to accommodate your preferred sleeping position. No more additional pillows, no more waking up in the middle of the night. You can set it up, forget about it and sleep well.

And that is exactly how and why adjustable bases improve sleep – you put the bed in a position you sleep best in, and leave it. Sounds so simple, and is probably why it’s so effective. No need to visit the American Academy of Sleep Medicine for advice, all you need is an adjustable base.

Are adjustable beds good for back pain?

Not only are they good, they’re excellent! Among the many sung and unsung benefits of adjustable beds, alleviating back pain comes out all the time as, possibly, the greatest one. We’re sure you know one or two people who’ve had their back pain problems made a lot easier with an adjustable bed.

And it’s easy to see why. A flat sleeping surface is just that – a flat sleeping surface. Yes, there are softer and firmer mattresses to buy and yes, perhaps sleeping on your stomach makes the back pain manageable, but it is only with an adjustable base that people experience some proper relief.

By having the ability to adjust different parts of the base, mainly the foot and the head, you can finely tune your base to a position where your spine is properly supported, offering diminishing pressure on your nerves. This way, you’re not only getting rid of the symptom, but you’re actively reducing the everyday pressure on your back.

How long does an adjustable bed last?How long does an adjustable bed last

The longevity of a bed rather depends on the bed itself, and by this we don’t mean the price tag or the “premium quality” of it. An adjustable bed can last for a long time, but you do have to pay attention to the three main aspects that determine the life-span of an adjustable base.

  1. Sturdiness – Probably the most important thing to watch out for is the overall build quality of a mattress. You don’t want a flimsy adjustable base made from poor materials, but a sturdy construction you can rely on.
  2. Electrical components – Every adjustable base is packed with electrical components, and, depending on their quality, you’ll have more or fewer issues with your adjustable base. However, replacing an electrical component is easy and often cheap, so don’t fret too much if something does break.
  3. Circulation – You wouldn’t think air circulation is important, but it is. The more “breathing room” an adjustable base allows, the longer it will last. Why? Because proper circulation minimizes the occurrence of mold and other unwanted elements, keeping your base as healthy as possible for as long as possible.
