If you have been shopping for an adjustable bed for any amount of time, you already know how complicated it can be. To say that there are about three dozen adjustable bed brands with over 100 models in the US marketplace would be an understatement.

So how do you pick the right adjustable bed?

Good question. Out of the 100s of adjustable beds available, how do you pick the right model? The first question you need to ask yourself before anything else is what is the right model for you? This is purely dependent upon what you need from an adjustable bed.

What do YOU expect from your adjustable bed?

This is where you need to be frank and decide what you need it for. According to the adjustable bed review by Bedroom Solutions, you need to first ask yourself what you plan on doing with your adjustable bed, out of the following long list.

  1. Sleep
  2. Read books
  3. Work on your iPad/ Working from home
  4. Watching TV
  5. Sewing
  6. Having breakfast/ dinner
  7. Relieve symptoms of Restless Leg Syndrome
  8. Relieve sleep apnea
  9. Relieve foot swelling
  10. Relief from back pain
  11. A soothing massage before retiring
  12. Combat acid reflux

As you can see, the list goes on and on and on.
