I'd been thinking about getting an adjustable frame but it would require a complete change in my sleeping. You see, believe it or not, I've slept on one form of a waterbed mattress almost all of my adult life. So, even though I'm a big guy 6'5" 300+lbs I'm accustomed to a really soft bed. As I've aged mr arthritis has joined me along with the bad disc in neck and back that most people with the hobbies of my youth can expect as they age. Well, this frame has been a Godsend! The zero gravity setting has in two days released the tension in my back from over working that normally would take a week to recover from! It has also given relief from some gastroesophageal reflux after a late night dinner. I highly recommend this unit.
