Adjustable Beds

Adjustable beds explained

Electric adjustable beds allow you to elevate your back and legs for comfort and support. Unlike a standard bed, adjustable beds make it easier to find a comfortable sleeping position.

At the touch of a button, adjustable beds allow you to conveniently change position and provide postural support and comfort. An adjustable bed can be tailored to suit your preferred sleeping positions to help achieve a great night’s sleep.

Opting for an adjustable bed for your sleeping arrangements can be a huge decision -particularly if you’re looking to buy a bed that can help you with everyday aches and pains, in order to get a good night's sleep. At Opera Beds, we specialise in creating luxurious and comfortable beds that can be used for a number of reasons, helping to give you better quality sleep and comfort.

Our electric adjustable beds have an elevating back and leg rest for comfort and support, making them perfect for anyone struggling to get quality sleep.

You can customise your bed with several adjustable options, including

• Size
• Style
• Headboard type
• Material
• Mattress type

Light, massage and wall-hugging upgrades are on offer as optional extras.

What is an electric adjustable bed?

An electric adjustable bed is a bed that has an adjustable back and leg rest. Through the use of a remote handset, these features can be altered to give you maximum comfort. 

As well as optimum comfort, an electric adjustable bed will give you improved postural support and lifestyle benefits. Your overall quality of sleep will improve..

Our spines make up a natural 'S' shape, which conventional beds don't conform to, and this sometimes leads to back pain. Using the adjustable bed’s controls, you can make your bed align perfectly with the curve of your spine. 

Opera® adjustable beds are different to most other electric beds on the market as they host an array of advanced smart technology, including:

• Zero gravity & anti-snore features
• Smartphone app control
• Massage therapy
• An under-bed lighting feature
• A wall-hugging structure

How do adjustable beds work?

Each bed comes with a straightforward electric handset that allows you to change the position of each section of the bed to find a comfortable position to sleep in. You can change this yourself, or use a selection of pre-programmed positions that have been specially created for ease of use.

If you share your bed with a partner or spouse, you can even buy a split double/twin bed. This allows both of you to choose your own sleeping positions, with each side of the bed being independent of the other. 

A favourite: Our Opera® Flyte Dual Adjustable Bed. This bed can be purchased in two sizes: a king dual bed (150cm/5ft) or a super king dual bed (180cm/6ft).

The process of using our electric adjustable beds is effortless, as the handsets are designed for ease of use. Our handsets have a light feature and all the buttons are backlit, enabling use in the dark.

What other benefits can an Opera® adjustable bed give you?

Electric adjustable beds have an array of benefits that can make you sleep better and enhance comfort.

An electric adjustable bed is now a necessity for many people - particularly if you’re struggling to sleep and get comfortable. Some of our beds also come in double sizes, meaning you don't have to have a separate bed from your spouse or partner, giving you an extra bit of comfort when sleeping. All our dual adjustable beds come with two hand controls, allowing each side of the bed to be adjusted individually.

A full range of health benefits

One of the main reasons that people buy adjustable beds is due to their positive health effects. An adjustable bed can have a positive impact on your health and wellbeing, making them particularly useful items to own.

Our electric beds include the Zero Gravity feature.

This zero gravity position was actually first invented by the American space organisation NASA. It was designed to ease stress on the bodies of astronauts in space, replicating weightlessness. 

Zero gravity is a safe sleeping position and is associated with improving comfort and sleep quality by:

• Reduced pain and swelling
• Increased heart health and improved breathing
• Acid reflux prevention

Available as a pre-programmed position on your handset remote, the option of zero gravity is made easy with our adjustable beds. 

Some of the other medical benefits that our electric beds can add to your life include:

• A decrease in musculoskeletal pain
• Increased blood flow to the heart and overall body
• Diminished sleep apnea and snoring
• Improved breathing and oxygen circulation, as well as an alleviation of asthma symptoms
• Reduced insomnia
• Decreased leg swelling and varicose veins
• Less pressure on the back, reducing the risk of pressure sores
• Decreased back and neck pain
• Improved digestion
• Relief from arthritis (in some cases, an adjustable bed can actually prevent you from getting this disease)
• Reduced heartburn and acid reflux issues

So as you can see, using one of our electric adjustable beds can have a great effect on your health - particularly as you get older.

At Opera Beds, we also have a massive range of mattresses and other accessories that can help you with your health. 

If you're worried about pressure sores or pressure on your back causing pain, our collection of pressure care mattresses could be perfect when combined with one of our beds!

Added comfort and support

Our electric adjustable beds are perfectly designed to help you with your everyday aches and pains, with our exclusive sleep technology ensuring you get a decent sleep quality - which can be difficult when you have a disability or an illness that causes pain when sleeping.

If you suffer from insomnia or find it hard to drift off at night, using an adjustable bed will allow you to change your sleeping arrangements to suit your needs.

By raising the back rest, there is no need to rearrange your pillows or get someone else to help you get comfortable in bed. These beds also give added support over a conventional bed/mattress, making sleeping easier in general.

Improved quality of sleep

One of the major advantages of using an adjustable bed is that it will improve your overall quality of sleep, making you feel a lot more rested than sleeping on a standard bed. If you're uncomfortable in bed, you're likely to change positions a lot, which may lead to you waking up more and more.

With our electric adjustable beds, you're sure to have a better night's sleep, as you can use the electric handset to create a comfortable position on your bed that suits your needs. Studies have shown that getting a new bed and mattress can improve your quality of sleep in general. 

Sleeping with your legs elevated has many health benefits, such as improving circulation and relieving back pain. You're sure to wake up feeling refreshed every time you go to sleep, ready for the next day ahead!
