SPLIT QUEEN ADJUSTABLE BED BUYER'S GUIDE
What is a Split Queen Adjustable Bed?
In the market for a Queen size adjustable bed? You have more options than you think. There is an additional type of adjustable bed that has the total measurement of a Queen but offers more. It’s the Split Queen adjustable bed size. These beds come as two bases that are used together to form the dimensions of a Queen bed. With 30” width and 80” length each, the two bases are put side by side to form a 60”x80” adjustable bed.
The perk of opting for a Split Queen versus a regular Queen is that each side can be operated
independently. One side can be in flat position while the other has the head raised, for example. If a sync cable connects the two sides, they can work as a team to offer both sides the same positioning simultaneously. This is often what happens when a traditional Queen mattress is used with the bases. To have independent movement, a split Queen mattress should be used.

Best USA Made
This adjustable bed, like all of Kingship Comfort’s adjustable beds, is made in the USA. It includes adjustable positioning, massage, programmable positions, and pre-programmed positions of Flat and Zero-Gravity. Zero-Gravity is a specific position that moves the body by lifting the knees and elevating the legs. It is often used to relieve pressure from the back and more evenly distribute body weight.
Adjustable legs allow the distance from the ground to the top of this base to be your choice of 11.5 inches, 13.5 inches, or 15.5 inches. While it can be used on a platform bed, it is not recommended as the base profile is not as slim as the afore mentioned Glideaway Motion 500.
Notable Features and Comparison
Motion control on an adjustable bed allows for the feet to be raised and lowered as well as the head. This is helpful at the end of a long day when you just want to put your feet up and relax.
- Dual Massage: Massage at the head of this base works apart from the massage at the foot of the base. So, the upper body and lower body can experience different levels of massage intensity at the same time. This dual-massage feature is not available on all bases, but it is on the Kingship Comfort Plus.
- Programmable Positions: This adjustable base also comes with programmable positioning. You have the ability to program not one- not two- but three of your personal favorite positions.

We offer Kingship Comfort Split Queen mattresses in latex, hybrid, and memory foam options. There is even one mattress available that is able to be flipped. It comes either as one side soft and the other side medium firmness or one side medium and the other side firm.
Split Queen vs Split King
In some ways, the Split Queen adjustable bed is similar to the Split King. Often times, the models that come in a Split King will also come in the Split Queen size. Both sizes have a split vertically down the middle of the bed and therefore come as two bases. However, the sizes differ in actual dimensions. The bases for a Split Queen adjustable bed each measure 30”x80”. That’s narrower compared to each side of the Split King adjustable bed which measures 38”x80”. In terms of maximizing space, the smaller Split Queen size is a practical alternative to the Split King.
How to Buy a Split Queen Adjustable Bed
Adjustable beds are a long-term investment because they have a really long life span. Moreover, they are more comfortable compared to regular beds. Split queen adjustable beds have some features that maximize the user’s comfort. However, there are some key factors you need to know before getting a split queen adjustable bed, and they include:
-
Brand
Adjustable beds are essentially a piece of furniture. That means when you buy one it will likely be around a while. It is important to consider the brand when buying an adjustable base. You want one that will be available down the line should you need any parts or assistance. These beds are built to last a long time, but you want a company that can stand behind the product. Some of the brands that make Split Queen adjustable beds which have been around for a long time are:
-
Price
When it comes to price, you have already made a good decision by visiting Rest Right Mattress. That being said, price is an important factor in making this type of purchase. Of the three adjustable beds we have listed above, the most expensive is the Kingship Comfort Plus. The next is the Malouf M555. The most cost-effective option is the Symphon Sleep 500.
- Evaluate Features Needed
We recognize that not everyone needs every feature that exists in an adjustable bed base. Of course, with one of these you will want the basic head/foot adjustability but how many programmable positions do you in particular need? All three of the bases itemized above include massage. So, from there, you can decide if dual massage is an upgrade that you desire. Is Zero-Clearance important in your situation? It may not be, or it may be very important. Assess your needs and the options available to choose the best adjustable bed for you.
- Type of Mattress
The current split queen mattresses in the market, or those purchased recently, will work well for split queen adjustable beds. The main thing to look for with split queen mattresses is the size. You need to make sure that it will fit the bed. Next, look at the style you want, as they are quite a number in the market today. Some styles of split queen mattresses include hybrid, latex, and memory foam.

- Type of Bed Compatibility
There are different types of beds, such as platform beds, storage beds, and traditional beds. You should know that some adjustable beds do not work with storage or platform beds. If you are looking for an adjustable bed compatible with storage and platform beds, you need to look for one with a zero clearance feature. For example, the Malouf M555 and the Symphony Sleep can work with both storage beds and platform beds. You will not experience the same problem with traditional-style bed frames because they work with all models, including the ones listed above.

Overview
From our experience and customer feedback, we’ve discovered that split queen adjustable beds are popular with people that don’t have much room in their bedrooms or elderly people who do not need large beds such as king-size beds. The features of the split queen adjustable bed depend on a person’s preference or where the bed was made. Some prefer a bed with the anti-snore app feature because their sleeping companion is prone to snoring. For other customers, price is more important. However, price shouldn’t matter because you’ll be able to get a return on investment in the long run. This is because the adjustable bed lasts for a long time, and you’ll be able to get parts of the split queen adjustable bed at a later time. You can easily get parts of an adjustable bed if they break or get worn out.
Questions and Answers
What is the Difference Between a Split Queen Versus Traditional Queen Adjustable Bed?
There are key differences between a Split Queen adjustable bed and a Queen adjustable bed. With a Split Queen the bed is two bases which measure 30”x80”. Imagine if you will, a Queen bed split vertically. Each side is its own base that can work separately or be used together to form one bed. The traditional Queen adjustable bed will often come as one base that measures 60”x80”. So, it can only be used as one bed, moving into positions all at once across the entire sleep surface. Sometimes, traditional Queen adjustable beds come as two bases for the purpose of transport and delivery. In these cases, the bed is split horizontally. The bed still can only operate as a single sleep surface once set up.
Are There Split Queen Adjustable Beds Near Me?
Split Queen adjustable beds are not as readily available in brick and mortar stores. That’s mainly because these types of stores tend to focus on volume of people and the most commonly purchased items. It makes sense that a store wouldn’t want to hold inventory that doesn’t cater to the masses. Split Queen adjustable beds are gaining popularity but are not as popular as Split King or single Queen beds.
What Sheets Fit a Split Queen Adjustable Bed Mattress?
When it comes to finding sheets to use on a Split Queen, the fitted sheets are the main issue. Traditional Queen flat sheets, quilts and comforters will still fit a Split Queen. The fitted sheets, however, won’t work. You need Split Queen fitted sheets that will fit around the two mattresses of 30-inch width and 80-inch length. We can help you with that, so feel free to give us a call.
What are the Dimensions of a Split Queen Adjustable Bed?
A Split Queen adjustable bed is two pieces; each base has the dimensions of 30 inches by 80 inches.
Can you get a Split Queen adjustable bed?
Yes, Split Queen adjustable beds are available from four brands. Options include the Kingship Comfort Plus, Malouf, Symphony Sleep, and the Glideaway. Though Split Queen bases are available in limited options, you can get a Split Queen adjustable bed.
Is a Split Queen the same as two Twins?
Contrary to what some believe, a Split Queen adjustable bed is NOT the same as two Twins. The sides of a Split Queen base measure 30” x 80” whereas a Twin is wider and shorter at 38” x 75”. So, ultimately two Twin size beds do not make up a Split Queen size.
Which Split Queen adjustable has massage capabilities?
Several of these adjustable beds have integrated massage functions. Two bases the Symphony Sleep 500E. Malouf M555, and the Kingship Comfort Plus has massage. Keep in mind that not all beds offer the same massage selections. One may have more intensities or differing types of massage versus another.
Do any of the Split Queen adjustable beds come Bluetooth enabled?
The Symphony Sleep 500E, Glideaway Motion 500 and Malouf M555 can be controlled using Bluetooth app controllers.
Can each side of the Split Queen adjustable bed move separately or do they have to move together?
One of the key benefits to choosing a Split Queen base is that it comes as two separate 30”X 80” pieces. Each side can therefore move independently of the other. They can also sync together for simultaneous movement.
Does the Elevation kit come on the Split Queen Glideaway Motion 500 Or Symphony Sleep 500E?
Glideaway and Symphony Sleep does not manufacture an Elevation kit for the split queen size. This kit is only available for the Motion 500 in sizes Twin XL, Queen and Split California King.
Is there a return policy for adjustable beds?
