Adjustable Beds & Hybrid Mattresses: The Perfect Combo for Great Sleep

Adjustable beds and hybrid mattresses are the perfect pairing for a good night’s sleep. 

Why? Because they offer enhanced comfort, personalized support, and plenty of other benefits. 

Adjustable beds allow you to customize your sleeping positions. This can improve spinal alignment, prevent pressure points from forming, and alleviate pain in areas such as the back, neck, and shoulders. 

This level of customization also helps in reducing symptoms of sleep disorders like snoring and sleep apnea by elevating the upper body and promoting better airflow. Certain mattresses, especially hybrid mattresses, complement these beds by providing flexible support that adapts to the body’s contours, ensuring even weight distribution and minimizing motion transfer. 

Understanding Adjustable Beds

History of Adjustable Beds

The history of adjustable bed bases dates back to the Roman Empire, with notable advancements in the 19th and 20th centuries. In 1874, Andrew Wuest and Son introduced the first movable bed frame with a hinged head. In 1909, Dr. Willis Gatch created an adjustable bed for hospital use, which became standard for modern hospital beds. By the 1970s, adjustable bases were adapted for home use. Modern adjustable bases feature advanced technology, including massage functions, USB ports, and customizable positions.

Common Features of Adjustable Beds

Here are some of the most popular features that come with most adjustable beds, like the one sold by Logan & Cove:

• Upper & lower body massage

Benefits of Combining Adjustable Beds and Mattresses

Sleep Better

You can enhance your sleep quality through the personalized comfort settings of an adjustable bed. This allows you to adjust your sleeping positions for maximum comfort and support. Proper customization can lead to improved spinal alignment, reducing pressure on the back and neck.

Furthermore, adjustable beds can help reduce snoring and alleviate symptoms of sleep apnea for certain individuals by elevating the upper body, promoting better airflow and breathing during sleep. These benefits combined contribute to a more restful and rejuvenating sleep experience.

Manage Pain

Combining a Split-King adjustable bed with a hybrid mattress is particularly beneficial for partners with different sleep preferences, as each side of the bed can be adjusted independently. Studies have found that using an adjustable bed can promote better circulation and alleviate conditions like acid reflux by allowing the sleeper to rest in an elevated position.

Overall, the combination of adjustable beds and compatible mattresses leads to a more restful and rejuvenating sleep, contributing to improved health and well-being.

More Personalized Comfort

Adjustable beds offer significant lifestyle and convenience advantages. They are perfect for reading and watching TV in bed, allowing you to find the ideal position for comfort and reducing neck and back strain. These beds also make getting in and out easier, which is especially beneficial for those with mobility issues.

Additionally, split configurations allow for partner-friendly adjustments, enabling each person to set their side of the bed to their preferred position without disturbing the other. This flexibility enhances the overall sleep and relaxation experience.

Great for Seniors, Too

Adjustable beds for seniors offer enhanced comfort and support, making it easier to get in and out of bed. This can encourage safety, mobility, and independence. Logan & Cove adjustable beds are fully automatic and come with a wireless remote ensuring that seniors don’t have to manually adjust their bed for various activities like reading, watching TV, or sleeping, reducing strain on joints and muscles. Features like customizable positions and massage functions may alleviate chronic pain and improve circulation.

Additionally, the ability to elevate the head and feet can help with conditions such as acid reflux and swelling, promoting overall well-being in old and young alike.

Key Features to Look for in a Mattress to Use with an Adjustable Base

Logan & Cove hybrid mattresses and adjustable beds are designed to be used together. If you plan to use another mattress, it’s critical that the mattress manufacturer states that the mattress can be used with an adjustable bed. This will ensure your safety and make sure that you do not inadvertently void the manufacturer’s warranty.

You’ll also want to select a mattress with motion isolation to minimize disturbances from partner movements. Choose a mattress that provides pressure relief to reduce strain on key areas of the body. Additionally, cooling properties are essential to maintain a comfortable sleeping temperature. These features collectively enhance comfort and support, making for a restful and uninterrupted sleep experience.

How to Choose the Best Adjustable Bed and Mattress Combination

When selecting an adjustable bed, several factors should be considered. If you plan on inserting the adjustable bed within your existing bed frame, be sure to check the dimensions of each product to ensure they are compatible. 

As for mattresses, the mattress you choose should be flexible and have an appropriate thickness to bend and conform to the bed’s adjustments without compromising comfort or support. Budget considerations are also crucial; adjustable beds and compatible mattresses can vary significantly in price, so it’s important to find an option that meets your needs without exceeding your financial limits. Balancing these factors will help you choose the best adjustable bed setup for your situation.

When testing and selecting the best adjustable bed combination, it’s crucial to try out different positions and settings to ensure comfort and functionality. Reading customer reviews and expert recommendations can provide valuable insights into the performance and reliability of various models.

Additionally, consider the warranty and return policy, as these offer protection and flexibility in case the bed does not meet your expectations.

Routine Adjustable Bed Maintenance Tips

1. Read the manual that came with your adjustable bed and mattress; it is essential to read the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Ensure you know how to operate your bed and how to take care of it properly.
2. Protect your mattress by using a mattress protector to guard against spills and stains. Logan & Cove mattresses include a FREE sleep bundle which includes a mattress protector.
3. Rotate your hybrid mattress, but don’t flip it. Logan & Cove hybrid mattresses contain a precise blend of coils and foam designed to be effective in one orientation only. Our modern designs and advancements in construction have resulted in a mattress that should not be flipped. It should be rotated every 4–6 months, especially if there is a significant weight difference between the people who use the bed. To rotate a mattress, turn the mattress 180 degrees (making the head of the bed the foot of the bed). Rotating a mattress allows the surface to recover from prolonged body indentations. This will help the longevity of the mattress.
4. Periodically check for loose bolts and screws.
5. Don’t put too much weight on the mattress.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

• First, check the power source and ensure all connections are secure.
• If the remote control isn’t working, try replacing the batteries or re-pairing it with the bed.
• For motor issues, verify that there are no obstructions and the weight limit isn’t exceeded.
• If the bed is noisy, inspect for loose bolts or parts.
• Always consult the user manual for specific troubleshooting steps and, if problems persist, contact us for professional assistance.
