Purchasing a new mattress is a highly personal endeavor, dependent on the size of your bed frame, preferred firmness and desired mattress height. Whether buying for a king-sized bed or a twin, or if you’re looking for something very firm or soft, one kind of mattress you might want to consider is the adjustable bed mattress. These are designed specifically for adjustable beds, arranged to provide you with a personal level of comfort that you can change as often as you like!
Adjustable beds are a fantastic product for those individuals who often wish that they could shift their bed -- even just a little -- every so often, perhaps to counter back pain or to sit up comfortably in bed to read. Seniors often find these beds highly beneficial, and for someone who is less mobile or bedridden, an adjustable bed provides options to sit up with back support instead of being perpetually confined to lying down. To accomplish this, adjustable beds function by use of a small control unit that you can use on your own, while in your bed, to adjust the height or incline of your sleeping position.
Certainly, in order to have full use of an adjustable bed, you must complement the bed frame with an adjustable bed mattress! Similar to a conventional bed mattress, you need to know the size of your bed frame before purchasing an adjustable bed mattress. Adjustable bed mattresses are available in all standard sizes: single, twin, full, queen and king. In addition, adjustable bed mattresses can be purchased in various styles, such as coil-spring, waterbed, foam or even inflatable air.
When purchasing an adjustable bed mattress, if at all possible, test the mattress on a bed frame similar to your own. The comfort of your mattress also relies on the quality of your frame, since the two will be working together to provide you with comfortable, restful sleep. Also known as the "semi-fowler bed mattress," an adjustable bed mattress will rise and fall as the bed itself is adjusted, working in unison to relieve back pain, mobility issues and help you to gain high-quality sleep.
One final aspect to consider is the firmness of your adjustable bed mattress. Due to the high degree of support provided by an adjustable bed, you may find that adjustable bed mattresses are somewhat firmer than your previous standard mattress. Consider this a benefit. By using an adjustable bed mattress with a firmer resilience, the mattress is better able to support you as you adjust the bed itself. Adjustable bed mattresses are designed with your comfort in mind.
