Adjustable Bed Mattresses

What makes a mattress adjustable?

Adjustable mattresses need to offer a degree of adjustability and flexibility to ensure maximum comfort. By adjusting the position of your mattress, you can get out of bed more easily, which is essential for those with mobility issues. Adjustable mattresses are able to do this as they feature soft comfort materials that are easily bendable and flex with the positioning of your adjustable bed.

The materials adjustable mattresses are made from vary, but they often include memory foam, soft fibres, and pocket springs for maximum comfort and support. Whichever materials your adjustable mattress contains, it will be designed to offer as much support across the whole body as possible, minimising pressure on joints to improve your sleep. It will also be able to easily adjust with your electric bed to help you find your most comfortable sleeping position.

Uplift® Adjustable Bed Mattresses, for example, use deep foam layers that easily bend with the shape of your bed as you change your position. They're the perfect thickness to offer easy flexibility while also offering impressive support and comfort.

What are the benefits of an adjustable bed mattress?

There are plenty of benefits to an adjustable bed mattress, mainly that they are the most compatible mattress type to go with your adjustable bed; they're specifically designed to conform to the shape of your adjustable bed. Their adjustability allows people who suffer from mobility issues to sit up in bed by simply pressing a button, helping you get in and out of bed with ease. This also makes them some of the best types of mattresses for arthritis sufferers.

How do you choose the right adjustable mattress?

Searching for the right mattress for an adjustable bed is easy and depends entirely on what you need from your adjustable bed mattress. No matter your individual sleeping needs, you'll find a mattress suitable for you in our range.

Medium and firm adjustable mattresses are generally a wise choice for those who require more support in their spine and joints. If you tend to sleep on your side more often, a medium firmness will offer the best of both worlds, with necessary support and enough cushioning to protect pressure points such as shoulders and hips. An orthopaedic electric bed mattress can help keep your spine in a natural alignment, preventing aches and pains in your lower back.

What are the adjustable bed and mattress size options available?

Mattresses for adjustable beds are available in a variety of sizes. We offer size options including a small single with a 75cm width, a single with a 90cm width, a small double with a 120cm width, and a double with a 135cm width. Our Uplift® adjustable bed mattresses come in king and super king sizes, too, which feature two seperate mattresses that form a larger bed, perfect for couples who would both benefit from a mobility bed.

This range allows you to choose the perfect adjustable mattress for your bed, your space, your lifestyle, and the way that you sleep. If you need help deciding which bed size is best for you, read our Ultimate UK Bed & Mattress Size Guide.

Is it possible to purchase just an adjustable mattress?

Yes, we offer a huge range of adjustable mattresses that can be purchased without having to purchase an adjustable bed. Bear in mind that you will need an adjustable bed to utilise your adjustable mattress properly, however!

We recommend you replace your adjustable bed mattress every eight years, as you would any other mattress. Read our guide to how long a mattress lasts for more information and advice.

Is an adjustable mattress topper/protector required?

There's no right answer - it's simply up to you, your preferences, and how you feel most comfortable sleeping. One of our adjustable mattresses will offer you a great deal of comfort on its own, so an adjustable mattress topper shouldn't be considered an "essential".

However, a mattress topper for your adjustable mattress will offer you an extra layer of padding for improved comfort - especially if you choose one made from memory foam. A mattress protector can help to extend the life of the mattress, and protect it from any stains, spills, or other incidents that might occur. Mattress protectors are easily replaceable and washable, but a soiled mattress will be more expensive to replace.
