iDealBed4i Custom Adjustable Bed Base, Wireless, Massage, Nightlight, Zero Gravity, Anti Snore, USB, Memory Pre Sets, Split King

Wow, first adjustable base. Where have you been all my life? I purchased this as consumer report's top new mattress was a fraction of the price of my 11 year old tempur-pedic grand. As the fabulous new Sleep on Latex, was $5 grand less, I began researching adjustable beds. I learned that Legget and Platt, was the "Cadillac" of adjustable beds. As I have a terrible back, and a sizable savings on a mattress that out ranks Tempur (per Consumers), I jumped on the iDealBed.All the setup guide, owners manual, and warrantee are Leggett and Platt.This is a L&P bed, at huge discount. The setup booklet is the same as, with pictures of, the $grand more expensive bed. The help telephone line is to L&P.Now, what is different. 1) iDealBed, is not printed on the remote. Wireless, of courseThat's it!The bed is soo sturdy. The massaging choices work like a dream. Massage works up to 30 minutes. The "lay flat" button works with one touch-no hold needed. Flash light nice, as is back lighting of all buttons. Under bed lighting illuminates all around bed for animal safety, and finding slippers.Several position choices preset, and a couple of memory choices you make.Nice button to lock bed, so children can not endanger themselves and pets.Super easy setup. Screw on legs, and 2 minutes unpacking and pressing cotton pins back on. Flip bed over (2 people), and plug into surge protector.Surge protection NOT INCLUDED!Purchase Velcro to always know where your remote is.Place mattress on bed. Relax, and know that you have a 10 year motorized warranty!PS Update: IDealBed increased price $15, the night I slept on decision to buy. Today, when I wrote review, price increased almost $100 +tax. Yes, tax on possible medical device. Will call about doctor script for tax return.Is bed price increasing for holiday reduction? I hope not. Love this bed base. Perfect in my Tommy Bahama poster bed. Just Heaven!January, 2018 update;At 6'4", the 9" Sleep On Latex, left me feeling as though I dropped half way to the floor getting into bed. The wonderful people at Sleep On Latex, sold me a 3", $300 topper, for 149.50. It made all the difference. The pressure point on my hip was gone, and elastic sheet grippers (under$10) left me secure that upon waking all bedding would remain intact.BTW, my massage unit operates in 3 distinct areas, although the rolling massage flows up and down the whole body. I only use the 2 lower power setting, lest I want a shiatsu experience. Perhaps, the perfect mattress for a motorized bed is latex?Many months, fantastic find!UPDATE, August 1, 2020Unfortunately, I have a worsening spine, and so much of my day revolves around activities that involve being on my bed. I am so happy with my latex bed. I spent so much time investigating beds, that I was thrilled when Consumer Reports ranked my mattress, in a 3 way tie for first place of all mattresses. The other 2, where also latex. Consumers concluded that latex products should exceed the 10 year period of superior bedding. I am truly testing the limits. And continue to be pleasantly optimistic. I would also be remiss if I didn't give an update to my Ideal 4, mechanical bed. As my original purchase was 1 month after the I deal 4 launch. As I am spending twice the time the average person uses the frame,I am really qualified to give an opinion. Just as someone who's job required crisscrossing the nation, weekly. My physique amounts to 6' 4, or 3&3/4", I weigh approximately 190lbs. , and my bed mates are two felines, as I had to put down one, at the age of 22. With a latex mattress, I am unable to awaken unless they stand on me, because there is very very little motion transfer. Which is outstanding, as nocturnal animals, like felines, are up to all sorts of mischievous behavior in the dark of night. I use the motorized features frequently, and the massage unit is used always when returning home from a doctor's appointment, or lengthy shopping excursion. It has been years now, and a considerable over time in the use of the iDeal4, mechanical power bed frame. I am so pleased to say that this product purchase has been a blissful experience! I could not have wished for better, and I am truly thrilled with my purchase. Especially, as there were no comments to read, and research was nil. I have lived long enough, and made enough mistakes, to dive deep into credible sources before I spend a great deal on a product I know little to nothing about. I have never considered a bed, and frame like these. When I purchased my Tempur-pedic grand bed, I was without information, and I was shelling out $6 grand. I was amazed to find that my mother's widowed friend was married to the gentleman at NASA, who was a principal inventor of the material that became Tempur-pedic. And by her say so, I purchased my bed that served me well, for 11+ years. In its first year, Consumers did not have enough to fully evaluate the bed. When I purchased my latex mattress, Tempur was no longer a great investment. I do not know why, and have no idea if the company had changed hands. All Consumers concluded, was that the beds were not the greatest, nor even great deals they were, in the day.My iDeal 4, however, was a great deal, and my geastimation that iDeal was L&P, was correct! My iDeal4, is truly fantastic! It has never let me down, nor disappoint me in any way. I can see that improvements have been made. Ideas that I conceived, had been put into place, and the prices have not been inflated. I am so happy that I took a chance on an unknown product, and with my endless usage, I am as happy as the day it first entered my life. How many great creations can you say the same? I love the addition of the battery backup. As with a power surge , my bed immediately reverts to a flat surface, which could be perilous for an animal. The remote is no longer white, which is valuable to those of us who's eyes, are off enjoying "those golden years ". Aaa, right! The snore button is new. And options in elevation are a very nice touch. It has been many years now, and I am surprised at the various options available with L&G's trial balloon. Having been the "Cadillac of motorized beds", the company realized that a less expensive value version, was more than just a niche trial balloon. But an offering of luxury, at just the right time, and place, brought a whole new luxury item to the masses, that they now could not conceive of living without. Many will graduate up to the top tier, and more will test and purchase a new necessity! I love the iDeal4 bed. I can no longer imagine resting without one. I have lived many years with my bedroom sanctuary. I love this, and cannot imagine life without it. Many complements, and happy dreams. My bed has been faultless, and I am a very very happy customer. I am delighted to return and keep you abreast of my iDeal journey. I shall be here to read, and help anyone with questions. And sadly, without compensation, I will answer questions, and give unvarnished advice to anyone. Being disabled, I have the time to help. If you are here reading my thoughts, you are on your way to a better nights sleep, or afternoon snooze. One of the very best decisions of my decades. I wish you the very best.MichaelUPDATE JUNE 2021,I completed a new update , and suddenly it disappeared. Well , I shall be brief. As previously mentioned, I am disabled, and spend twice the average time in this bed. As I head to 5 years this wonderful L&P bed , I spent $600+ tax, is as close to the nearly $2 grand bed the company was running as a new option. It does not list the maker, but their help line let's you know, and the 4i is no where to be found. The bed has all the bells and whistles at 1/3rd the cost. It is every bit as good as the first day I received it. Believe it or not, I have not changed a battery. The feel for a 6'4 man is as great as day 1. L&P has raised the price close to $150, but Covid may have some reason. I have not followed the price, as I head on to 5 years, but I spend twice the average amount of time in bed. As covid's grip is lessening, I will be back with therapy and gym. I just wanted to let people know that this new idea by one of the very best makers in the world, has been a fantastic investment! I saved a good $1000 dollars or more, and I have never had 1 problem with this frame. Even the massage unit, which I would guess to be the 1st to go, has been perfect! I was very lucky to walk into a new concept by a high-end company, that kept it's new option nameless. Just about every toy included in the high dollar is here. Maybe all. I truly believe in this product. For a man with a mess of a spine, I am so fortunate. Leggit and Platt, is a great company, and (sadly) no one paid me to keep you up to date on this dream machine.Stay well, and rest in peace

Just received our queen frame this weekend and I must say I'm very impressed with the product. Delivery "issues" aside (see below), the product is solid, well documented, and works as advertised. It was installed under our existing iComfort memory foam mattress and inside our existing wood bed frame without any issue.The good:1. Construction quality is impressive. The metal frame is thick & solid with secure connection points all around. The hydraulics and their connection points are equally solid, and the electrical components include heavier-gauge wiring with modular connectors that are clearly labeled. If there is any "weak spot" in terms of construction, it would be the adjustable legs, which each consist of three plastic screw-on cylinders. That being said, don't foresee any issue with them, and they installed/leveled with no hassle.2. Operation is exactly as advertised. The range of motion for the head and feet is more than expected. I believe it advertises a 40-degree angle for the head; I'd say it easily exceeds that - at its extreme, it feels more like 90 degrees lol! The remote is responsive, easy to operate, and has a nice, solid feel with backlit buttons.3. Installation is idiot-proof. Beyond the physical challenge of putting the frame in its place, there's really nothing more to installation than securing the legs and mattress retention bar then plugging it in.4. Clear documentation. While there's really no learning curve for this product, it's always reassuring to see clear and professional documentation, in English and grammatically correct.The "could be better":1. The packaging was a bit lackluster. Upon opening the box, the base is literally just folded in half with the loose components resting inside of it. While nothing was damaged, removing the heavy frame with multiple hinge points was awkward, to say the least. I would have hoped there would have been something securing it to keep all the moving parts in place until it was ready to be installed. There is also a yet-to-be-explained extra leg included that did render some confusion as we searched for a place to install it. I had assumed it was a supplemental "center support", but there is clearly no place on the frame for it to insert.2. USB port placement. This may not be relevant for all users, as our frame is actually obscured by our bed rails when flat. The ports are located near the head of the frame on each side but reside behind the side walls. Thus, accessing them requires essentially reaching under the frame and "feeling around" the bottom. Additionally, since they are mounted so close to the head, they have far more range of motion than what seems to be logical. I keep an iPhone cable on my nightstand for charging; if I used the ports on this frame, I envision the cable (and/or phone) being pulled off the nightstand any time the head was raised. The ports do seem like they could be easily re-positioned but in all honesty, this isn't a feature I was particularly interested in to begin with, especially since they are completely covered by our bed rails when flat.3. Remote and under-bed lighting. Both work perfectly when activated, however, doing so requires pressing a button on the remote itself. Considering that both of these features are very likely to be needed in the dark, I would like to have seen some mechanism allowing the remote keys to illuminate when it is picked up (similar to our cable tv remote). Granted, I haven't had this frame long enough to "memorize" the remote, but until that happens, I'd be hesitant to try to activate the remote lights by pushing the wrong button and waking my wife with a rogue adjustment! It would also be nice to have some sort of motion sensing on the under-bed light, as it really does illuminate the area around the bed very well. No deductions here, as these are "wishlist" features that are not advertised.4. Operation volume. While actually ON the bed, the sound of the hydraulic lifts are really minimal. What I have found, however, is that the noise is curiously very noticeable from rooms below our second-floor bedroom. I found this somewhat surprising, especially considering our bedroom is carpeted. I may consider looking into some sort of cushions or other material to try to dampen the noise/vibrations once I have a chance to really zero-in on exactly where it originates.The "ugly":Okay, I admit to being a bit dramatic here, but the delivery notifications were oddly inconsistent. The original delivery date was Friday, Jan 15th. On Thursday, Jan 6th, (more than a week early) I received a notice that it was "out for delivery - arriving by 8pm". I excitedly called my wife to expect a large delivery, and once I got home, promptly removed our mattress and box spring in preparation. By 10pm that night, the amazon delivery date had changed back to the 15th. Grrr. The same thing happened on Friday, Jan 7th, including me once again removing the mattress and existing foundation that I had to hastily reassemble the previous night. Again, no delivery and the Amazon delivery date again reverted to the 15th. That was still the estimated date on Saturday, so you can imagine my surprise when the doorbell rang and I found the large parcel waiting outside.I'm a bit conflicted here... All things considered, the frame did arrive a full 5 days ahead of its original estimated delivery date. That being said, having to disassemble, reassemble, disassemble, reassemble and again disassemble our bed based on "out for delivery" notices was a bit frustrating. In hindsight, doing so was obviously a bit premature, but my experience with Amazon delivery notices in the past is that they've been remarkably accurate.Lesson learned.Overall, I highly recommend this purchase. Ultimately, it delivers everything promised and is easily $200-$400 less than comparable models we browsed in retail stores.

the range of motion is plenty. I almost never bring the head up to its full capacity. The legs lift plenty high as well. The remote could use better illumination. a backlight that stays on long would be good since most of the time you use this its in the dark. It's a bit noisy when in motion and the massage is a little noisy. The motors themselves have a nice hum to them but there are metal parts on the motion mechanisms that rattle a bit when the massage is on. I plan on trying to fix that with some heavy grease or maybe add another washer in each location to snug things up a bit. The under bed lighting turns off after a minute or two and I wish I could leave that on for extended periods because it's very nice. If I could I might put some colored gels over the lamp lenses. that would be relaxing. When the frame is laying flat it's very stable. When the head and feet are up, it's wiggly. So if one of your criteria for mattress shopping was minimal motion transfer, this frame may defeat that purpose. It's heavy. I put it together and installed it myself but I wish I had an extra set of hands to do it. It's so heavy that you could actually break or bend the legs when flipping it over so you have to be really careful. The iPhone app is great. It adds a lot more memory locations to store your favorite positions. All in all it has been really nice to have, does help relieve pain and when our dog is on the foot of the bed she's snoring within seconds after turning on the massage. It's also a pretty fun accessory for playing around with different positions when you and your partner are feeling amorous.
