mattress genie vs adjustable bed
 

I decided on this bad boy instead of buying a whole new base for my bed. the adjustable bases were a thousand dollars at cheapest and 5k for the better brands.

I would have been forced to remove my platform which has underbed storage and drawers and it attaches to my bed frame and armoires. so, I didnt want to lose it.

Got this one home yesterday, plugged it in and WOW its great! I got a knee bolster of foam so its just like propping in the hospital bed. my acid reflux calmed, the hug calmed and so forth.

im so happy! Has anyone else ever tried this? It took forever for me to find it in queen size, and now today its back on amazon. I got the full sized one, and tucked the motor under the mattress too. its LOUD but you only crank it up for a min.

That looks great.....and it's much more affordable than getting a whole new mattress set. I hope it continues to make your sleep more comfortable. :)

Here's a video of how it works. I wonder if you could use itbon a sofa?

I know that they said on the video that it works on any mattress but I'm wondering if it really does? Can you get yours all the way up to sitting position?

I mean does the mattress bend as it's lifted or does it just slide you off, the higher you get?:D

my mattress sits pretty far up. I am almost directly sitting. The mattress itself will depend on what yours is made of. Some flex up, but when you sit down on the mattress it goes into the rise you expect. if your mattress is too light, it needs the body weight to hold it down.

Another issue I saw reported was if you dont have a foot board, it can cause the mattress to slide off the end of the bed. You can sew velcro on the box spring and mattress to make them stay together or glue it on. I have a platform with a box (its on old water bed, who am I kidding?) and it doesnt slide anywhere.

I expected that plastic smell but there is a light odor and it has gone quickly.

im really happy! I can find the perfect spot to make that MS hug let go. it seems every time I lay flat the MS hug really beats up on me.
