What Does an Adjustable Bed Base Do?
An adjustable bed base lets you raise or lower the head and foot of the bed to personalize your position for sleeping, reading, watching television or relaxing. It is a comfort and convenience product, not a treatment for a medical condition.
Common Reasons Shoppers Choose an Adjustable Base
Personalized positioning
Head and foot articulation gives you more ways to find a position that feels comfortable for your body and routine.
Independent comfort for couples
A Split King setup typically uses two Twin XL mattresses and two Twin XL adjustable bases, allowing each sleeper to control their own side independently.
Convenience features
Depending on the model, adjustable bases may include preset positions, massage, USB charging, under-bed lighting, memory settings or zero-clearance designs. Features vary, so compare the actual base specifications before buying.
Will My Mattress Work With an Adjustable Base?
Many foam and hybrid mattresses are compatible with adjustable bases, but compatibility varies by model. Check both the mattress and base specifications before purchasing, especially if you are using an existing bed frame.

- Head and foot articulation
