Sorry to hear you news. But really hope you get the best treatment.

We have just bought one from Sleepkings on EBay. It was £649.99 for a king including delivery and installation. Best thing we did. We waited 18 months but should have gotten one straight after the op and it has really improved my husband's sleep.

Wishing you the best.

Best of luck with whatever treatment is available for you, sorry I don't know about the beds.

So sorry to read your post.

Having read all the positives relating to adjustable beds on this website, I have just ordered one from Willowbrook, great choices but not cheap. They sent a guy to our home to demonstrate all the available features, colours etc. Extremely comfortable!

Looking forward to having it installed.

Yes I'm the same, no knowledge on electric beds but wish you all the very best, we hope you can beat it again.

Apricot kernels. I swear they saved me. I have seen the beds on freecycle. Well worth trying.

Hi , good luck with the op.

There are actually some good ones in charity shops for around £150. (With mattress but you can get a good foam mattress which bends well for a single at around £200 and put on a topper that is best for you. You may not get VAT relief but it can be a good option. Delivery is also available.

I got one from Dreams for £1800 and another for less than a £100 (the cheaper one has a massage option and drawers for storage !!

Also often see them in local papers or on supermarket boards but you need to be able to transport them
