Adjustable Base - A2

The A2 is built as an affordable way to experience Zero Gravity sleep. It has the essentials - head and foot articulation, a one-touch flat preset, and quiet, reliable motors - along with details that make it easier to live with, like a simple wireless remote, gravity release for safe lowering, and backup power-down in case of outages. Unlike most bases, it also folds, so storage and moving are far less of a hassle.

Zero gravity is a preset position that slightly raises your head and legs above the heart, so your body feels weightless. It was inspired by how astronauts are positioned during launch because that angle helps reduce pressure on the spine and distribute weight more evenly.

For sleepers, this position takes stress off the lower back and hips, keeps the spine in a more natural alignment, and helps muscles relax. It also improves circulation by raising the legs above the heart, which can ease swelling and reduce pressure on sensitive joints. If you deal with snoring, acid reflux, or sleep apnea, the head elevation can make breathing easier as well.

Outside of sleep, many people use zero gravity just to relax and watch TV or read a book. The posture helps you stay comfortable for longer without the soreness you’d normally start feeling if you stayed flat on your back.

All of our mattresses work great on the A2 Adjustable Base. Our top recommendations would be the Latex Mattress, the Latex Hybrid Mattress, and the DIY Hybrid Mattress.

Yes. Its slim 4" profile fits seamlessly between your mattress and base. You can also use the included 12" stackable legs for standalone support and underbed storage.

Latex, memory foam, and hybrid mattresses are the best options. Innerspring mattresses with rigid, interconnected coils are not recommended, as they don’t flex well with adjustable movement. Water beds, air mattresses, and extra-thick or ultra-firm mattresses are also not recommended.

The best mattress for an adjustable bed frame is an all-foam mattress. We recommend opting for an all-latex mattress, which is composed entirely of latex foam layers. It's eco-friendly, durable, responsive, supportive, and provides contouring and cushioning - a perfect complement to the flexibility offered by adjustable bed frames.

The A2 Base supports up to 750 lbs, including the mattress and bedding. The weight should be evenly distributed across the base.

Yes, but the setup is simple. The A2 arrives folded for easier handling. Once unboxed, you’ll unfold the frame, screw in the legs (height-adjustable with stackable segments), and attach the mattress retainer bar at the foot. After that, it’s just a matter of plugging in the power supply and inserting batteries into the wireless remote.

Two people are recommended to move and rotate the base into position since it’s heavy and shouldn’t be dragged. Most people have it fully set up and ready to use in under an hour.

An adjustable bed frame can last 10 years or more, depending on how often it’s used and how well it’s maintained.

You can attach your own headboard to the A2 Base using headboard brackets and the included hardware. Footboards, however, are not compatible with this model as they're fitted with a mattress retainer bar at the foot.

The A2 Base has built-in power outage protection. If the electricity goes out, you can press the button on the power-down box located under the base, and it will safely return to a flat position.

Yes, provided that you choose the right fit. Sheets with deep pockets (10" to 14" or more) work best, especially fitted sheets that stretch over the corners. For split king setups, you can even use separate sheets for each side to avoid tugging when adjusting positions.

Do:

• Plug your adjustable base into a surge protector.
• Contact us for any technical issues.
• Use with adjustable base friendly mattresses.
• Lower to the flat (horizontal) position after use and in between presets.
• Evenly distribute weight when sleeping in a split setup.
• Register your warranty as soon as your adjustable base has been delivered.
• Use mild soap and water to clean your adjustable base if it becomes stained.
• Enter or exit your adjustable in the flat (horizontal) position.

Don't:

• Sit on corners/edges of base; this may warp the frame, struts, or foam.
• Tilt the base on its side. This can damage the legs and/or leg screws.
• Force the base down; this can damage the motors or frame.
• Stand or jump on the adjustable base at any time; this can damage the frame and motors.
• Drag the base to move it. Dragging the base could cause damage. Purchase castors if you plan on moving your base routinely.
• Enter and exit the adjustable base with the head and/or foot in the articulated position.
• Tinker with or modify the base. This will void the warranty.
• Press down on the head or foot sections while actuated; this can damage the frame and motors.

Not at all. The A2 Base is energy-efficient:

• Zero standby power system keeps energy use under 1 watt when idle.
• Motors only draw power when adjusting positions.

Even nightly use won’t significantly affect your electricity bill, and the low-consumption design makes it a sustainable choice over time.

Seniors often benefit the most from using an adjustable bed base.

Head and foot articulation eases aching joints, provides pressure relief, reduces back pain, maximizes REM sleep, and can improve circulation.

Elevating the head can make reading, watching TV, sleeping, and other activities much more comfortable for those with GERD or snoring issues.

Smooth, silent motors make adjustments effortless, even for those with limited strength.

No. Box springs aren’t designed to flex with an adjustable base. They’re rigid, which can damage the base and reduce mattress performance.
