An adjustable bedframe can be a game-changer for any number of conditions that affect the length, quality and comfort of your precious nightly sleep. If you've been tossing and turning about the pros and cons of getting one, read on—here are five adjustable bed facts that might just help you make your final decision.

#1: Side sleepers can benefit from them just as much.

These beds aren't just for back sleepers. With the right adjustments, people who sleep on their side can benefit just as much from the extra support provided by an adjustable frame. They may be of some use to stomach sleepers, too, but try before you buy—your natural sleeping position will make a difference, and it's important to find out if you'll be safe and comfortable.

#2: Back problems aren't the only thing they help to alleviate.

While the alleviation of back pain is the most-vaunted use of an adjustable mattress, they have plenty of other excellent effects. They can also help with snoring, acid reflux and sleep apnea; bring down swelling in the legs and feet; lessen the pain of sciatica and arthritis; promote digestion; improve sleep quality during pregnancy and much more.

#3: You're not wedded to the mattress that came with the frame.

Latex foam, memory foam and polyurethane foam mattresses all work with a huge variety of adjustable bedframes. If you prefer a spring mattress, you do have options: many hybrid mattresses will work, as will some of the more flexible individual-pocket options. Just opt for a more flexible one that isn't too hard, and check with the manufacturer when you buy to make sure they're suitable for use with an electronic adjustable base.

#4: Split frames mean you and your partner can use different settings.

If you share a bed with someone whose sleeping preferences differ from yours, that's not a problem. With a split frame, each half of the bed will adjust independently. You'll need to use two single mattresses rather than a double to make use of this method, but it's a great way to keep you both comfortable all night long.

#5: Modern retailers offer a huge variety of aesthetic options.

Back in the 90s, the adjustable beds you saw in TV adverts all looked a little like they belonged in a hospital. That is no longer the case. There's now as much variety in colour, style and upholstery for the frames and heads of adjustable beds as there are for standard ones—so this investment in your health and wellbeing won't compromise the look of your bedroom.
