Better than the one I tried in my local store
I had never considered an adjustable bed before until I played with one while looking for a mattress at a furniture store but they wanted over a grand for it. So I decided to do some comparison shopping and found myself looking at this one and I am loving it. I have back and stomach issues and being able to elevate myself has made sleeping with them so much easier. before I would have to build a wall of pillows behind me and prop up in a corner to try and get comfortable. Now I just have to press a button. I can also see the elevation making it way easier to get out of bed for people that need a little extra help. Having both head and foot raised makes for an extremely comfortable way to sit in bed and watch tv or play on my laptop. I was a little worried with the motors about my cats getting under the bed but they just run away. With the slow speed of the motor plus how it's positioned I don't have any worries about that anymore since I don't see how they could get trapped and not have plenty of time to get out of the way. The controller is wireless and has a couple presets built in. For the most part they are adequate for how I would want to sit but it would be nice to have the ability to adjust them or set my own. it has a backlit lcd screen that is easy to read however the buttons are not back lit. This hasn't really been a problem for me since by the second night I could literally find the head up and down buttons in my sleep. It's powered by 3 AAA batteries that come with it. The buttons are clicky and easy to press down and clearly say what they do. The only one I had to look up was the vibration intensity button, but I guess it's hard to make "Vibration Intensity" fit on a button and still be readable. Speaking of which the vibration works fairly well. There are separate motors for the head and the feet and I found that I needed both on to get a massage effect. With only one it just kinda feels like you are buzzing but with both you get a pulse that runs up and down your body and feels rather nice. I also found that you really need to be dead center for this to work properly. The USB port on the side is a nice touch. It's not a quick charger but is easily be able to charge your phone while you sleep. The green light is constantly lit while it has power. It's a good feature for letting you know that it's plugged in and working correctly but I like my room as dark as I can get it so I wound up putting a piece of tape over it. Assembly was really easy it took me a little less than 30 min by myself to go from a box on the floor to raising the head for the first time. I wasn't rushing and took my time so you could easily do it faster, especially if you had someone to help you. The only problem I ran into was that the provided allen wrench was a little bit too large to go all the way into the holes of the screws. Using it I was still able to get everything tight enough but I had to be careful with it not to strip the screws. I contacted the company about it and the next day I got a reply that they had contacted the factory to have the problem fixed. So far I am incredibly happy with this motorized base in the video I have a queen sized base and a full sized mattress. I ordered my new mattress more than a week ago and am still waiting on it. Meanwhile this shipped out from california and arrived two days ago. I was provided with this base for free in return for a review. I've used it for two nights now and love it, If anything changes I will update the review.
