If you already have an adjustable mattress, it may be suitable for an Opera adjustable bed. It’s always worth checking with the supplier just in case. However, if your current mattress or the one you are thinking of buying is a regular mattress it is not suitable for an adjustable bed. Normal mattresses do not contour to the adjustments of an electric bed. They do not flex easily and restrict the bed movement.
Suitable mattresses for adjustable beds
All our mattresses are designed to be used with our adjustable beds. Our mattresses provide flexibility and support and correspond with the movement of the bed. Our adjustable comfort mattresses have an anti-slip base cover to prevent the mattress from slipping out of place when your bed adjusts.
We have a range of suitable adjustable comfort mattresses, in a variety of fillings ranging from supportive orthopaedic foam to cooling infused gel. When it comes to choosing the right mattress for your adjustable bed the main thing to consider is what firmness you prefer and your body’s needs.
Foam mattresses
If you prefer a more supportive and firmer mattress, you may wish to choose a foam mattress. Foam mattresses are a great option that gives spinal support, foam gives excellent shape retention and proven longevity.
Best of both foam and gel: Hybrid Mattress
If you want the combination of the cooling properties of gel and the utmost comfort from foam then a hybrid mattress may be for you. Each layer serves a particular purpose to support you while you sleep - advanced orthopaedic foams, pocket springs, and cooling gel layers work together to provide you maximum comfort, spinal support, and temperature regulation.
Traditional Pocket Sprung
A pocket sprung mattress is excellent for regulating your body temperature as you sleep. However, not all standard pocket sprung mattresses are suitable for electric beds, so you must check with your provider.
Ensure you check your adjustable mattress is suitable
Even if you have an adjustable mattress already, it’s key that you check whether it’s suitable for your Opera adjustable bed. Measure the size and depth of your current mattress to check it will fit within the bed base. You can find the full dimensions and specifications of our adjustable beds online at the bottom of the bed page, look for the mattress platform length and width.
Our dual adjustable beds have separate mattress platforms which require 2 individual mattresses. So if you have one complete king or super king adjustable mattress this is not suitable for our dual beds. If you’re using your own mattress, make sure they are the same width to avoid one side of the bed is higher than the other.
We would advise purchasing an adjustable bed and mattress from the same supplier to avoid disappointment or potential accidents/damage. If you’re unsure our helpful team can assist in choosing the most suited mattress for your Opera adjustable bed.
