Split-system beds

Split-system beds are becoming more and more popular, as they allow a couple to sleep in the same bed regardless of different requirements and needs. Similar to the proven mental health benefits of staying in your own home, continuing to share a bed with your partner can have a significant impact on persons mental well-beeing.

Split System beds are available in the following sizes

• Split-Queen adjustable bed
• Split-King adjustable bed
• Split-Super King adjustable bed

Although being a split-style bed or a traditional European style bed set up the total size of the bed is the same as a regular-sized Queen, King or Super-King bed. This gives you the advantage of being able to use standard-sized top-sheets and duvet covers. Your fitted sheet for the Split-Queen and Split-King, however, are different. Please see the table below for more information on sheet sizes.

Having a split-system allows each user to choose their functions/ Bed set-up, for more information on these, click the below

• Hi-Lo Dual Lift
• Dual Lift
• Head-Lift only
• Companion Bed

This means that each bed will have a separate remote control (except for companion beds) allowing you to individually choose your optimal sleeping position. You will also be able to select different mattresses to suit your preferences and requirements, rather than compromising on a mediocre option, that neither of you will be perfectly comfortable on. Because all our mattresses are made to the same height, you don’t have to worry about any height differences in your bed.

The one compromise that you will, however, need to make will be on the bed height. We usually recommend going with the bed height that is lower and adding the hi-lo function if necessary to assist in getting in/out of bed.

All Motobility adjustable beds come with heavy-duty lockable casters. While you can choose to have regular legs fitted instead of the castors, we recommend going with the castors as the adjustable-beds, especially when equipped with the Hi-Lo function are very heavy and awkward to move without the castors. Thanks to thequality of the castors, you won't have to worry about the beds separating and creating a gap while you are sleeping.

If you want to, you can also add an optional freestanding upholstered bed-surround for added style and peace of mind. To find out more about our bed surrounds click here.
