I asked the same question when I first heard several people talking about them in my office. When I searched on the Internet about the adjustable beds, I was surprised to find the health advantages of an adjustable bed. A little more research was enough to convince me to buy an adjustable bed!
But what is the main reason for the adjustable beds gaining so much popularity? Well, the reason is not one but are many! Many people had already seen the adjustable features in a hospital bed and coveted the same in their bed at home. In the hospital, a patient can sit up to read or eat or lie down to sleep or relax. One can raise the feet up to make them feel more comfortable or to keep them in a certain position to avoid pain. And sometimes one needs to both raise the legs up as well as prop up the back so as to be able to sit up.
And here is the catch – no one wants a hospital bed at home for oneself as no one prefers to be a patient! Yet everyone who understands the benefits of an adjustable bed covers the adjustable features in the bed at home.
The bed industry got the message and the consumers found what they had been waiting for. The adjustable beds for home do not look like hospital beds at all, but have even more features than a hospital bed! If an adjustable bed at home is in the flat position, it is practically indistinguishable from a conventional bed! The automatic adjustable beds use the same linens as those of conventional beds for most cases. The adjustable beds can have wooden side rails and head boards and footboards too just like the conventional beds do.
The most important of all that remained was the cost factor. Many people initially could not justify extra the cost of just having a fancy bed in place of their conventional bed. But the users soon found that an adjustable bed is not just fancy, but full of usefulness and health benefits that conventional beds completely lack. Secondly, with the advances in the technology and streamlining of the design of the adjustable bed, the cost has come down drastically. More and more people prefer to not buy adjustable beds that are full of comfort, style and health benefits. The word of mouth has spread a lot already and is making the people around the world take a second look at the beds they have been using for decades. All these people when in the market for a new bed now take a look for beds with adjustable features even though if they have to spend a little more for the automatic adjustable beds.
