To be frank, I did not need all the fancy features that the more expensive adjustable bases offer. In the past, I have never used the massage features. So I just opted for a version that has zero gravity and allows me to adjust the head and foot areas of my bed. My only gripe is that I think the remote is too small. Besides that, the motor operates quietly and smoothly. Moreover, it quickly lifts or lowers the bed to your desired position. The base is not cheap quality. It seems robust and I am quite pleased with the look and feel of all the materials. My recommendation for prospective buyers would be to purchase this adjustable base and take the money that you do not spend on a more expensive adjustable base and put it towards a more expensive mattress.
