Malouf M555 Twin Size Adjustable Bed

Two notable and pretty great features on this Twin adjustable bed are dual massage capability and its unique alarm clock.  The head section massage works separate from the foot section massage, plus it also offers multiple intensities and wave modes.  The app controls allow for an alarm clock, that when set, automatically moves the bed base into a pre-selected position.  This base also comes with adjustable legs that start at 6” and have two additional 3” extensions.  That means the base height can reach your choice of 9 inches, 12 inches, or 15 inches.

Notable Features and Comparison

• Dual Massage: What Dual Massage means is that the head and the feet have massage that works independently from each other. Both can be set to different intensities at the same time.  The Malouf M555 offers three levels of massage intensity and four wave modes.
• Alarm Clock App: Imagine setting an alarm for the morning that actually moves you into a specifically chosen position. That’s what the alarm clock on a Malouf M555’s app controls can do.  You pick the position, save it in a pre-set position and set the alarm.

Who Would Want to Buy For?

Rize Aviada Twin Adjustable Bed

The Rize Aviada has massage, 3 programmable positions, multiple pre-set positions, and the specialty lounge position.  However, what makes it truly special is the Inversion Position and that it has extra range in the feet positioning.  Most beds lift the legs and raise the head, then return both to the original flat position.  This one can do that but it can also lower the head and feet segments in the opposite manner, below flat.  As for the scope of leg positioning, the Aviada exceeds the typical 45-degree scope of others.  This permits the lower leg to raise above the knees in a position that some find useful for circulation or swelling issues.

Notable Features and Comparison

• Inversion Position: A good spinal stretch is the result of the Inversion Position on the Rize Aviada Twin adjustable bed. In this position, the bed keeps the body in a supported state as both the head and feet drop just slightly.
• Larger Feet Positioning Range: Most adjustable bases let the legs raise up to 45 degrees.  This bed base goes beyond that range allowing the feet to go above the knees for higher elevation.
• Voice Controlled App: The app control on the Rize Aviada accepts voice commands for operation.  Speak out phrases such as “head up” or “lights on” to activate.

Who Would Want to Buy For?

The Rize Avaida is the common base for the inversion position and its modern design. Many customers prefer the inversion position because this allows you to stretch your back in the inversion position—some customers like the modern look since this is the only adjustable bed with the bed frame style.

Rize Clarity II Twin Adjustable Bed

A more budget-friendly Rize Twin adjustable bed is the Rize Clarity II.  This option still comes with the voice app controls, massage with wave, programmable and pre-set positions and under-the-bed lighting.  It lacks the Lounge and Inversion positions though.  This adjustable bed does offer Zero Clearance and a low-profile.  Some beds with Zero Clearance are able to be used with a traditional bed frame or without a frame at all.  The Rize Clarity II offers the same but it is also compatible with platform bed frames thanks to the low-profile.

Notable Features and Comparison

• Platform Friendly: This Twin adjustable bed can be used with or without its legs.  It is suitable for use with platform bed frames, traditional bed frames, or without a frame at all.
• Voice Powered App: The mobile app allows for easy transition between positions. It can also be used to start or stop massage as well as move between three massage intensities and wave modes.

Who Would Want to Buy For?

For the zero clearance frame, Customers prefer the Rize Clary II. This is because the size clary allows the bed frame to sit on the platform bed frame.

Flex a Bed Hi Low SL Twin Adjustable Bed

Probably one of the most useful Twin adjustable beds for seniors is the Flex A Bed Hi Low adjustable bed.  While the size is right, the thing that really makes this good for seniors is the Hi Low adjustable bed feature.  Most beds have a height of around 15 inches.  The Hi-Low aspect of the Flex A Bed makes it adaptable to your height needs.  The lowest setting is 11 inches and the highest is a full 7 inches higher at 18 inches.  So, the low setting can be used when getting in or out to make the task easier.  The higher settings can be used so that caregivers or others can more easily reach the user.  The Flex A Bed Hi Low Adjustable Twin bed comes with or without massage.  Massage is commonly a desired feature so it is often sold with massage but it is available without as well.

Notable Features and Comparison

• Hi Low Feature: The high low feature allows the whole base to raise 7 inches.  The range of heights varies between 11” and 18.5” depending on whether the casters are being used or not.
• Optional Bed Rails: This bed can also be used with or without bed rails. Up to four bed rails can be used, two at the head and two at the feet.  They are considered an optional accessory and can be purchased individually.  You don’t have to buy all four if you only need one or two.

Who Would Want to Buy For?

Customers who have a problem getting in and out of bed will prefer the Flex a Bed Hi-Low adjustable bed. This is because the hi-low feature raises the whole bed up and down for one to get in or out of bed easily.

Rize Remedy III Twin Size Adjustable Bed

The best Twin adjustable bed for those needing lumbar support is the Rize Remedy II.  This is the only Twin adjustable bed that has lumbar support control.  The lower lumbar raises to provide added support in the lower lumbar region.  The Rize Remedy II also has a good package of popular features.  It has adjustable massage, under bed lighting, dual USB charging ports, 3 pre-set positions as well as 3 programmable positions.  The foundation style base has adjustable legs for a height at set up of 12.25” or 18.25”.

Notable Features and Comparison

• Lumbar Support Feature: A complete section in the lower back is able to rise for extra lower lumbar support.

• Voice Control Feature: The app for the Rize Remedy II responds to voice directives to move into positions. You can tell it to turn off or on the bed’s underlighting or control the massage settings with simple spoken commands.

Ultimate Flex Assist Bed Base

The Ultimate Flex Assist twin bed is designed with a lift chair feature. The lift chair feature allows the bed to lift, like a lift chair, to help you get in and out of bed more easily. The Twin Ultimate Flex Assist adjustable bed is available in both Twin and Twin XL sizes and also has side rails to grab to help you to get in and out of the adjustable bed more easily. It is important to note that the feet of the adjustable bed, when flat, will not raise because it has to bend to do the lift chair position; thus, the feet may fail to move up like many adjustable beds. A customer needing this bed is tired of sleeping in a lift chair recliner.

Notable Features and Comparison

• Lift Chair Feature: The lift chair feature enables the bed to move up to the position of the lift chair; this helps you to get in and out of the bed more easily.

Who Would Want to Buy For?

The main reason customers have to buy the Twin size base is because they are tired of sleeping in a recliner lift chair. Many customers have a hard time getting in or out of bed, which is why they sleep in recliner lift chairs. The Ultimate Flex Assist allows you to have the lift chair function, but you can sleep more comfortably in the bed than in a lift chair.

Pair a Twin Size Mattress with Adjustable Base

Modern day Twin adjustable beds are compatible with all new twin size mattresses on the market.  Any type of mattress will work including latex, memory foam and hybrid mattresses.  Older mattresses are the only ones that may not work and that is only if they use the old-style coil system.  Most of these mattresses are out of commission at this point (or at least they should be).  So now, you can really choose any mattress based on what you like in a mattress.

Twin vs Twin XL

Twin adjustable beds and Twin XL adjustable beds are both 38 inches wide.  The Twin is 75 inches long and the Twin XL is longer at 80 inches.  There are more adjustable base models in a Twin XL compared to a Twin.  That’s primarily because a Twin XL is 38”x80” which is exactly half of a split King adjustable bed. So, essentially, any base that comes in a split King will also come in a Twin XL.  Manufacturers are seeing the demand for traditional Twin adjustable beds though.  In turn, they are making more adjustable bed models in this size than every before.

 

How Do the Twin Adjustable Features Help Older People?

The low and high features of the Twin adjustable bed are the ones that help older people. The hi-low features of the adjustable bed raise the whole bed up and down, making it easier to get in and out of the bed or make it for transferring. This feature is very common with senior customers because as you age, it becomes harder and harder to get in and out of bed. Ultimate flex assist also helps the elderly to get in and out of bed which is the same as the lift chair. The features of the Twin adjustable bed are the ones that help seniors the most.

 

How to Buy a Twin Adjustable Bed?

Buying a Twin size adjustable bed may be complicated with all the information found online. Below are some considerations to guide you before purchasing a Twin size adjustable bed. These considerations will help you understand the process of buying a Twin size adjustable bed.

• Brand: The brands of twin adjustable beds are limited, unlike the split king and queen sizes. But there are a few various brands that you have to consider before buying. Before buying a Twin adjustable bed, you should look at the adjustable bed brand’s history and how long the brand has been in the market.
• Rize Adjustable Beds
• Flex a Bed Adjustable Beds
• Transfer Masters Adjustable Beds
• Size: The Twin size adjustable bed measures 38 inches by 75 inches, but there are Twin XL adjustable bed sizes 38 inches by 80 inches if you need a longer adjustable bed. The Twin size beds in the hospital may need to be clarified since the length of the hospital twin bed size is 75 inches by 80 inches or 84 inches, but the length of the standard Twin adjustable bed is 75 inches.
• Type of Features: There are several various features that a Twin adjustable bed has, which you should consider before buying a twin adjustable bed. The Twin adjustable bed’s most unique feature is the inversion position. Still, other special features, such as the hi-low feature, enable the adjustable bed to rise and lower. Hi, low features help you to get in and out of bed more easily. There are many other features you should consider before buying a Twin adjustable bed apart from the mentioned features.
• Type of Compatibility: All adjustable beds usually fit traditional bed frames or sit by themselves with the mattress, but the storage and adjustable bed frames have special adjustable bed features in which they sit and look nice that kind of the bed frames. The bed frame must have zero clearance with a low profile so that the adjustable bed sits low. The Rize Clairy II, Malouf M55, Rize Remedy III, and Rize Tranquility all work on platform and storage bed frames.
• Bed Height: How tall or short a bed should be is often based on aesthetics.  However, the physical needs of the person who will sleep in it may influence the decision as well.  The height of a bed is determined by three things, two in regards to the base.  The profile of the base is how thick the base itself is.  The size of the legs used impacts the height as well.  Then, of course, the mattress depth adds to the bed’s overall height.  Most of the Twin adjustable beds will have adjustable legs to provide options during set up.  Adjustable beds with Hi-Low functionality allow the height to be flexible, based on your need in that particular moment.
• Parts Readily Available: It is essential to know if the details of a Twin adjustable bed will be available later in case the bed breaks. Knowing the company’s history and how long it has been around for you to get the parts later is essential.

• Type of Mattress: All the mattresses can work on a twin size adjustable bed. The older mattress is the only one that cannot work on an adjustable bed. The older mattresses are made with something other than the coils connected with a wire.
• Price: The price of a twin adjustable bed varies depending on the model. The most expensive Twin size adjustable beds are the flex assist. Flex a Bed has extra features like hi-low. The Twin adjustable beds, which have fewer features, are cheap.
