- Compare the S-Cape Adjustable bed by Leggett & Platt with the Wallhugger feature to the Reverie adjustable bed with the Wall Snuggler feature. Also, what is the best mattress for an adjustable electrical bed? Latex vs. Memory Foam? Hands down, it is a thinner, all latex mattress. Most mattresses today are too thick to work properly on an adjustable bed. On top of this, most mattresses are made of plastic foam which will give out on an adjustable bed very quickly, especially if people are sitting up in bed where they are concentrating weight in one spot. That spot will soften quickly in plastic polyurethane foam. Latex, on the other hand, is the most durable cushioning material and thus is the best for an adjustable bed. On top of this, latex bends easily for the adjustable bed. Too many mattresses are less flexible and art too thick. The very best mattress for an adjustable bed is our latex mattress.

I’m a big guy, 6’3 about 250lbs. My Tempur pedic mattress lasted about 2 years on my side. It’s softened so much I at times resort to sleeping on the couch. My gf and I thought maybe we just bought a lemon for a mattress but I’m glad I saw this video as we are now in the market again looking for another mattress. Thank you for posting this, it’s been very helpful.
We ship and shipping is free. Get one of our real latex mattresses, cheaper than most, longer lasting than any other, and no chemicals.
Great info especially the info on a good mattress to buy. I read up on it and found out latex was best but forgot about it and nearly went to purchase a memory foam mattress. Thank you for a great presentation.
Wow. This is just what I needed. Thank you so much! Now to view your mattress video. Much appreciated.
Very thorough! Great content. Very helpful tips, suggestions, and experience. Thank you.
Great information! He knows his stuff! Thank you!
Excellent video, very informative, it helped me make the correct decision. Thank you so much.
Wow thank you for such quality information!
This video was so informative. I already learned that Leggett & Platt was the best adjustable base via Consumer Reports, but I just didn't know what to think about memory foam mattresses. My sister told me the best mattress she'd ever slept on was latex and she regretted buying a new bed and mattress because she just wanted a change. After watching this video, I will definitely buy a latex mattress and put it on a Leggett & Platt base. I'm already 68 and I need a mattress that will stay with me for the remainder of my days....which I hope will be long! If I make it to 90, I think I'll deserve another new bed and mattress!
You would be soooo right. Give me a call when you are ready to begin sleeping like never before at 540-397-2337.
@Stefanie, and you ll get another bed and mattress at your 100th Bday!🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐
Great presentation! Lot’s of very good information, Thank you
Thank you. Please visit my website www.mattresseducation.net for really good info on mattresses.
Hi just wanted to say that I have had a latex mattress since 2013. It's been the best purchase ever. I'm 300 lbs and I was looking at a tempurpedic luckily I found some reviews that explained exactly what this person is talking about. It led me towards latex and I could not be any happier. I do rotate my mattress about every 6 months I am not sure that has something to do with it.... But I have no body indentations
Excellent information. Thank you!
great information! Thank you very much
Excellent video!
Great video, so informative.
Great info, by the way 😀
I have to say that you have convinced me that a latex mattress would be ideal for me and my hubby. Not bc of weight but bc we want a split adjustable bed bc of his back issues. And latex seems like it is the way to go. I was reluctant to get latex bc I'm actually allergic but I've learned that it won't be an issue. I will watch the video that you suggest. Definitely gonna look into the adjustable bed you were showing as it was quite and wireless and also the wall hugging feature is something that I didn't think about since I've been looking at different ones. I have to say I've kinda always been cheap with mattresses. Our current isn't a bad mattress it's an Ashley hybrid we got about 5 yrs ago on sale for $480 just for the mattress literally half off regular price. She's been a good mattress. But I do think that the foam layer is definitely softer than it was. But since my hubby has back issues I'm not wanting to go cheap but I also am willing to buy new mattress every 5 yrs since sleeping is a very important part of all our lives I think it's worth it to invest in a mattress. If you break down the cost over a 5 yr period I'd say spending $400 on sleeping a yr is definitely worth it and even still worth if I have to spend over $2k on our next mattress. I think I'm more worried about the adjustable bases lasting alot longer than my mattress. I don't want to have to replace that every 5 yrs. I know this is an old video but I just had to share my thoughts bc this is the best video I've seen about an adjustable bed and this was my 1st one from this channel that I've watched. Thanks again. I will be watching more and I subscribed.
Yes, this video is old and just this past month I now have to report the full wall hugger that I demonstrate in the video is no longer available. The idiotic Leggett & Platt, who makes great beds, decided it was better to not make the full wall hugger because it is too expensive. DUMB! Anyhow, give us a call because you will have questions that won't be answered in the videos. 855-502-8453
Now you've got me rethinking our bed order. My wife's Intellibed Nightfall is latex, my TEMPUR-LUXEbreeze is not. Nevermind their TEMPUR-Ergo Smart Base clearly pulls you away from the wall and your table... Damn!
Give me a call at 540-520-1131
@@SleepEssentials .. I went to Mattress Firm, our Tempur-Ergo Advanced base as I would imagine any others still allows you to access a bed side table. I tried your base and it only moves a small little bit. The only thing that I'm still not 100% on is switching my bed too an Intellibed Midnight. I chose my bed primarily because it's firmer and cooler. I bought my daughter a king size soft Luxbreeze that's coming any minute...
Jumpin Jesus! that was best, most enjoyable review I've ever seen. You my friend were born to be a mattress dude. I'm gonna get some popcorn and a drink and sit back and watch this next video you're talking about. I'm in the market for an adjustable bed and am glad I stumbled upon you're video.
Thank you. Call me if you have any questions at 540-397-2337.

I bought your Leggett & Platt bed with latex in 2019 (I think) and still love-love the bed with latex. My wife loves the bed also but now wants a little firmer mattress. Unfortunately, I was in charge of filing and misplaced, or lost, the file showing which position of the mattresses to make the bed firmer. Yes, I was fired from keeping our records (yea). I sent in a request to your office for instructions but wanted to say to all..."BUY THE LATEX mattress, you'll love it. Mucho thanks mon y saludos, Jack
Wonderful! Thanks for the testimonial!
I was given a Twin XL of one of Leggett & Platt. I am not sure what model, it appears a older model and its lightly used. I am excited to clean it up and try it out. I haven't slept in a bed in general in many years. This will be a treat!
You need one of our latex mattresses on that adjustable bed and you will be in pure heaven!
I bought this, last November and within 3 months I starting to wake up with lower back pain, neck issues, and hip issues, bought the kind the store owner uses. One of the big reasons I bought it, does not break down. however does not do me good if one keeps waking up with back issues, Hip, and neck. Note it is not just me my wife also is waking up with back issues. So today I bought a MyPillow Pillow topper that will go over this bed. 3" with a 60-day trial. Looking forward, or should I say hoping to wake up with no back issues or hip or neck. Let me know if anyone has found a bed that when you wake up one has no pain! Thanks if you have any questions let me know. 'I am 64 years old and my wife is younger.
Awesome “ My Pillow “ is a great American product!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@312picnic tried that. Did not help so I returned it. And yes they are a great company. Just did not help for me. Wish it had. I believe there is no price one can pay just for a good
restful sleep. The rich pay 200,000 for horsehair beds, others Tempo Pedic, I
been looking for a bed that will give me lower back support so I do not have to
use a rolled-up towel for lower back support, I am a side and back sleeper and
also need support for my shoulders while on the side. In the past 1 ½ I’ve gone
through 3 different beds, (Tempur Pedic- med), (Latex 9” bed-med,) and last was
the (Purple 3 bed). Sad to me still woke up with lower back issues after giving
them 90 nights of sleep. On Jan 20th, 2021, I laid on an Intellibed at
Mattress Firm< tried out the soft, med, and firm. Right
away I felt support in the soft, so I decided to try it. Last night Jan 20th
2021 once my first night, woke up not feeling as much pain as I had in the
other three beds I had. I will give it a 30-day trial and see how it goes. To me,
the soft bed gives you the support one feels where it is needed, Shoulders, hips,
and lower back.
BTW your mattress review is great. Revealing, for example, Tempur-Pedic’s lack of transparency. And you are right-customers need to make their own decisions/choices.
You seem really eager to gather info, take testimonials and do the right thing by folks.
So, it could be useful to also make a list of the chemicals in the adjustable base including formaldehyde.
You aren’t responsible for Leggett and Platt’s negligence and you do sell a marvelous .
bed. But it could great if you as a merchant and great advertiser of P and L consider sending them an email or a call expressing concern.
Thanks again. E
The S CAPE classic appears to have been discontinued. Can you please tell me if there is an affordable option now for a full wall hugger?
Thank you for your video. I research things to death. I have an adjustable bed in my AZ home and do not use it for two reasons. One..... too far from night stand, and I have dressers as night stands, and two I don't like the foot of the bed the way the feet stay too far up. The foot should be a little lower so the knees are bent.
Why do you use a dresser as a nightstand?
Can you please tell me… Is this dual voltage? Both 110V and 240V? So on the power box, does the input just say 110V? Or: “Input 100v - 240v”? Sorry, Getting conflicting answers, I really appreciate any help anyone can offer. Thank you.
I appreciate your review and comparison. I have my choice down to the S-cape and the 5D, which happen to be your comparison. (How often do you get so lucky on Google?) Absolutely want it to be furthest back when tilted "wall-hugger" but your comparison is not apples-to-apples. Can you clarify?
For the L&P you note the 12-14" foot-end gap, but the foot is raised very high (which increases that gap), and you do not mention the wall gap, only that the base moved back, illustrated by the foot-gap increasing. For the Reverie you note the gap is only 4" (and that it moved 5") and stress that "The gap is [head] more than it is [foot]. It did not move backwards." If you raised the foot, it would be further from the foot. But in any case, for a "wall-hugger" feature the head:foot gap ratio is irrelevant. The only objective factor is how large is the head-end gap on the S-cape compared to the Reverie? Also consider that the Reverie raises 12-degrees more vertical than the L&P, so for apples-apples you would have to measure this at the steepest s-cape angle, not the 5D. That will better tell me if night-stand access is better on one or the other, not how big a gap at the foot. Do you have such a measurement you could share?
This seems to be the only factor left in my decision. If the Reverie is really not "snuggling" the wall at 58-degrees, as well as the L&P, then L&P wins. Otherwise the Reverie scores a bit higher for me.
Thanks again for the video comparison.
I from Toronto Canada I need an s cape Orkin classic motor. How much are they? Where in Canada can I find one?
After a lot of research and watching this video, my husband and I finally decided to buy the L&P Prodigy 2.0. Although we feel we made the right choice and are happy with the bed, there is one thing we're not happy about, and that is the so-called 'wall hugger' feature. When one of our split-king beds is in the full, upright position, the bed has only moved backwards 7" and there is a gap of 4" between the headboard and the head of the bed, nowhere near the 12-14" your video suggests. The obvious downside is that our nightstands are out of reach. Is there some way to make an adjustment to our bed to make the wall-hugger feature actually hug the wall?
Unfortunately there is no way to change this. This is posted on an older video of adjustable beds. Since I found out about the difference of the "Wall Hugger" of the Prodigy and the true Wall Hugger of the S-cape, I did another video demonstrating the difference. You can see this video on my home page of my website www.mattresseducation.net. I'd like you to contact Leggett & Platt and complain that they have misrepresented the "Wall Hugger" feature of the Prodigy since it is not a true Wall Hugger. It should be called the One Half Wall Hugger because a true full Wall Hugger moves backwards a full 11 inches.
Thanks so much for the helpful information... you were the reason we decided on the L&P bed, and with the exception of the Prodigy's 2.0 not-so-much wall-hugger feature , we are very happy with it. I will definitely contact L&P to complain about their misrepresentation, if for no other reason, to find out why they changed that.
Lee, I just noticed that the beds in your videos are all 'inside' head/footboard beds... I've been shopping for a 'bed' to put around our Prodigy but am having a hard time finding one with the right dimensions. Do you have any suggestions as to how to go about finding an appropriate bed? Thanks... BTW, your videos are very helpful.
Virtually all standard size bedsteads will accommodate the adjustable bed. Just be sure that the retailer that sells you the bed will refund or exchange if your adjustable won't work inside their bed. Odds are overwhelming that you won't have any problems.
Will I need a specific kind of king headboard And footboard frame for my split king s-cape?
No. The adjustable beds are designed to work inside any normal king size frame (headboard, footboard, and siderails).
Can you comment on the volume of the motors between a L&Pand a Reverie? We are tossing back and forth between an L&P and a Reverie 8Q, but no place locally carries the 8Q so we can't hear its motor. Thanks!
+Shay Moore (ClothoX) The Reverie is delightfully quiet! I like everything about Reverie except the "Wall Snuggler" feature is a total joke, and the corner retainer bars. They advertise, "keeps nightstand within reach." This is far from the truth. I illustrate this on my adjustable bed video. You can find it on my site mattress education dot net and under the products menu at the bottom. The problem with the corner retainer bars is that if you get a split bed, the retainer bars have to be left off because otherwise they run into each other when lifting the head or feet of each side. After removal, the mattress is not well contained on the adjustable. This is a serious design flaw if you get a split king or split queen. Other than these two things, the Reverie is a quality product.
+peyton072904 Thank you so much for the quick and thorough reply! Yes, this video I am commenting on certainly seems to illustrate the "wall snuggler" option is not so great. Appreciate your feedback.
Great info but noone answers my question......Can I put this bed in my Old (antique) bed frame???????
Kim Hernandez You may but it will depend upon your size and perhaps design of the antique bed. Please call me to discuss your needs at 540-397-2337. Thanks.
Thank you ....I will remember to call you when I actually get ready to do it is a 1890's big headboard/foodboard and it is a full size..It looks like since the slats are removable a adjusable can fit inside but as stated above before I buy I will call you thanks for answering me
I just spent $5,059.79 at Mattress Firm for the Simmons Black Hybrid Pillow top Clermont mattress!! I did choose the Leggett & Pratt 500 Series. adjustable base. It was $1500.00. The $5,059.79 was the total price for everything. After listening to you I think maybe I should cancel this before Saturday's delivery. Am I making a bad decision by buying this? I'm not sure what all the materials are in this bed.
No question, cancel. The bigger the brand name in mattresses, the bigger the junk. They are all about marketing, not making a quality product. Not only this the big brand names use chemicals for fire-retardancy. To learn more before you buy anything go to our website www.mattresseducation.net and watch the mattress education video. Or just call me at 540-397-2337. Thanks!
Me too... I have ordered an Easy Rest adjustable bed to be delivered on Monday...I have no idea what is in the mattress,but think I need to find out! You can contact me at majelcarroll@q.com or 612-860-1123 (my Cell) What did you end up doing?
How did you get your display mattress to follow the contour of the adjustable base so good?
Latex foam is rubber so it follows the surface it is on. Hybrid mattresses are bendable for an adjustable bed but they certainly don’t bend very well unless you put weight on it to force it to bend. Thus, latex is THE ONLY mattress for an adjustable bed.
Hi I purchased the prodigy 2.0 split king with 2 twin 10in latex matresses. I'm pretty frustrated with the amount of slipping and pulling apart of matresses. My husband and I can't meet in the middle of the bed because it pushes matresses apart and creates wide gap. It would seem the velcro system is insufficient and the matresses not dense/heavy enough to stay in place.
Any suggestions?
What brand of mattress did you buy?
Thank you for replying, the base I ordered automatically came with Pinnacle gel ease twin XL mattresses.
I think I made a mistake that are not latex
Can you text or email me a picture of the mattress uncovered? I'd like to see if it is tapered on the edge. The Prodigy 2.0 is a magnificent adjustable bed. I hope to do a video about it soon. Our latex mattresses are square on the edges so there is no valley between them which I imagine would cause the mattresses to separate.
Tacky rug underpayment on the platform surface, sheet holder stretched across the bottom of the mattresses from one side to the other when not elevating the beds.
Can you convert a split king adjustable with separate motors to a king with one motor and one remote.
+Adele Johnson Yes you can convert a split king to work as one single king under the control of one remote. Depending upon the model of adjustable but it either works by a sync cable wired between the two separate units or by programming both sides to operate simultaneously from one remote. I hope this helps but if you need more assistance please call me at 540-397-2337. Thanks!
What's missing here is the fact that the Leggett and Platt base uses plywood that outgasses formaldehyde. It's a serious problem for those with chemical sensitivities. Despite a barcode sticker indicating that the plywood is in compliance with CA standards for allowable formaldehyde, at 6 months it still emits an awful smell that should not be mistaken for solid wood. Motor great, but they cut a corner here. The company could have used a non-formaldehyde plywood. The company claims that the cover around the plywood helps mitigate this outgassing, but not so in our experience. It has been 6 months and we've tried everything to accelerate the outgassing with very little success.
Yes, it is a sad fact that our stinking government, which is out of control worse than the California fires, is mandating Unconstitutional "laws" since the 1930s that it is almost impossible for a company to produce real quality products for the consumers. There is NO WAY to get a perfectly safe adjustable bed. But who can get a new car without some exposure to chemicals? Who can buy all the time 100 percent perfectly organic food? At least from us you are not sleeping on toxic chemicals from the mattress.
If one gets a 100% metal adjustable bed that is anodized not painted-it’s low to zero VOC. I’m glad to know there are more and more non-toxic beds now, but it would be better if the beds were on surfaces that were also non toxic.. using wood with soy-based glues is better than what Leggett and Platt uses on their adjustable beds For a while Chinese plywood exports were prohibited because of high formaldehyde content. But looks like regulations changed or were not enforced.tYep as for cars, have to buy a used car that’s done some airing out and hasn’t been detailed yet.
@@estherkirshenbaum5441 Couldn't agree with you more. There is a problem, none of the all metal beds, that I know of, are of any quality and have little to no features. People will have to decide for themselves on the cost vs benefits. Thanks for contributing.
What do you think of the purple 3 with the coil springs?
A man from Texas called me and said he was tested for high levels of Antimony and had been sleeping on a Purple for about a year. He sent me a sample of the FR sock over the mattress and I sent it to a lab and had it tested for Antimony and it was positive. That's what I think of Purple.
I need that bed frame for my split king!!! Where can I purchase it?
Bed frame for an adjustable bed?
@@leecarter3336 I need that HEAD BOARD for my split king!!! Where can I purchase it?
I would like to know about the adjustable beds, prodigy 2.0 and prodigy 2.0+ can you Splaine the difference on these two beds?
Happy to splaine. The Prodigy 2.0 has independent control of the pillow tilt. Meaning there is a button on the remote, or on the app, to tilt the pillow as much or as little as you'd like or none at all. But in order to offer the lumbar support on the new Prodigy 2.0 +, they took away the independent control on the pillow tilt and made it integrated. This means no more controlling the pillow tilt on your own as much or as little as you'd like. It means the pillow automatically tilts when you lift the head. Bad design in my opinion but it is also like all other models by any and all other brands that offers pillow tilt. Lumbar support is very nice and works GREAT with our nine inch latex mattresses. Mattresses with springs and thicker the user doesn't feel the lumbar very well. While I've not seen the new Prodigy 2.0+ from looking at the picture it looks to me like the lumbar lift does not extend to the very edge of the bed. Another flaw because I'm afraid you'll notice the "fall off" of the latex mattress on the edge because of this. I hope to review the new Prodigy 2.0+ soon. Feel free to call me at 540-397-2337 if you have further questions.
Sleep Essentials. thanks for the information was very helpful.
I don’t see any split kings on your web site. Do you still sell them?
Yes, most of what we sell are split kings.
What about if I bought one of each to make a split king? Will they work well?
Yes, two twin xls side by side makes a split king. They work perfectly together just like shown in my video here.
So prodigy 2.0 and prodigy 2.0+ Will work good together? That Is my question?
Yes but why would you want different models on each side?
It will be one for me and one for my wife, the one with lumbar support for my back.
How do you put the foot and headboard on the S-Cape adjustable by Leggett@ Platt?
There are no footboard brackets for an adjustable bed. Typically a bed with a footboard has a set of siderails. If this is the case with you, it doesn't attach to the adjustable bed, the adjustable bed merely sits in the middle of it on the floor. They do not attach to each other.
@@peyton072904 I was talking about the video. It appears he has a foot board on the s-cape..
@@peyton072904 Also if that isn't a option what bed skirt can you use on it to hide things under the bed?
A lot of people are allergic to latax. Have you had customers complain re allergic reaction re itch or rash from sleeping on latex
Never. Latex foam cannot cause a reaction. The way the latex is processed into foam destroys the protein that can cause a reaction in a person who is allergic. So no once can have a reaction to latex foam. A very few people can have a reaction to synthetic latex, but this is pretty rare as I've only seen this happen twice. If there is a reaction to a "latex" mattress, my bets are on the fire-retardant chemicals. I hope this helps.
Thanks for these timely info ...:-)
Could you please give me your prices.
+deana mcdonald Thanks for your kind comments and for watching my video. I don't publish prices on this venue due to the possibility of changing prices. So please call me when you can as I think you will be pleased with my prices. 540-397-2337
