The adjustable base discussed is produced by the makers of a renowned online mattress and is favored for side sleepers. It operates using electricity to power the hydraulic-like motors that elevate both the head and foot sections of the bed. The base is equipped with a wireless Bluetooth-enabled remote that features buttons for adjusting the head and foot portions, a built-in flashlight, and a button to return the frame to a flat position.
The Leggett & Platt app, available only for iOS, also serves as a remote control. Within the app, users can name their bed, make necessary adjustments, and save preferred positions for easy future access. The bed frame is designed to be sleek, measuring approximately 13 inches from the ground, thus providing additional storage space underneath. The legs of the frame are virtually hidden, but the zero-clearance design allows the base to function without them if used with platform bases.
The adjustable frame can rise in half-inch increments from 13 to 18 inches from the initial base position while operating quietly. This base is compatible with mattresses that are designed to flex without altering the internal structure or compromising stability and works seamlessly with nearly all Saatva mattresses. For mattresses from other manufacturers, it is advisable to verify compatibility with an adjustable base.
Saatva offers a 10-year warranty on this product along with free in-room delivery and setup, typically completed in under 15 minutes. The delivery team also assists in placing the existing mattress back on the frame. The adjustable frame is particularly beneficial for individuals with mobility issues or medical conditions such as acid reflux, restless leg syndrome, sleep apnea, or sciatica. Although this luxurious bed base is not considered a necessity, it adds a touch of comfort and convenience.
