Ergomotion FAQs

Each Ergomotion adjustable bed base is powered by two silent-drive motors that raise and lower the head and foot portions of your bedframe, often using less power than a microwave. With the touch of your remote, you can find the perfect position in seconds. 

Each Ergomotion adjustable bedframe is designed to meet specific health and wellness needs. Consider your exercise goals, health needs, and lifestyle expectations as you decide on a new adjustable base product. If reducing snoring is your goal, then perhaps RIO 1.0 is the perfect solution for a simple adjustable headrest experience. If you suffer from chronic back pain, acid reflux, do intense functional training, or want something that can aid your aging lifestyle needs, you'll want to consider RIO 3.0, RIO 4.0, or RIO 5.0. Each of these higher-end products provides unique solutions to help you alleviate pain, prevent unwanted outcomes, and recover from exercise or injury. You can also compare the features of our RIO bases here.

We also offer a variety of premium and luxury specialty beds to fit any of your specific needs.

A split king mattress combines two twin XL mattresses placed side by side to form one large, adjustable bed. This innovative setup offers each person the freedom to adjust their side to their preferred firmness or position, making it ideal for couples with unique sleep preferences.

Unlike using separate mattresses, a split king maintains the look and feel of a unified bed while providing unparalleled flexibility. This design not only allows for comfort but also allows for seamless compatibility with adjustable bed frames.

The split in a split king mattress is subtle and often unnoticeable, especially when paired with a high-quality mattress topper or fitted sheets. Designed with comfort in mind, these beds make sure you and your partner can sleep soundly without disruption.

Split king mattresses give couples the freedom to customize their side of the bed for maximum comfort. Each side can be adjusted independently, letting you choose the firmness or position that works best for you. These mattresses eliminate the need for compromise, making them a practical choice for partners with differing sleep needs.

They also integrate smoothly with adjustable bed frames for enhanced functionality. A split king mattress offers a tailored sleep experience for both individuals, making for restful nights without sacrificing convenience or comfort.

Split king mattresses offer a range of benefits that make them a standout choice for many sleepers:

• Personalized Comfort: Each side of the mattress can be adjusted independently, catering to individual sleep preferences.

• Health Benefits: Adjustable settings can help alleviate issues such as back pain, snoring, or acid reflux by allowing customized positioning.

• Ideal for Couples: Perfect for partners with differing sleep needs or habits, ensuring neither has to compromise.

• Enhanced Compatibility: Designed to pair seamlessly with adjustable bed bases, adding functionality and convenience.

• Cohesive Design: Although split, these mattresses provide the feel of a single, unified bed, especially with the right bedding accessories.

To prevent separation, start by using a non-slip mattress pad or connector straps specifically designed for split king beds. These simple tools are effective in keeping the mattresses firmly in place.

Additionally, fitted sheets tailored for split king mattresses provide an extra layer of stability while ensuring a neat appearance. For added support, consider using a bed frame with an integrated center support system to reduce movement.

Combining these solutions helps maintain a unified sleep surface, allowing you and your partner to enjoy uninterrupted comfort.

While it’s possible to use regular sheets, split king mattresses work best with fitted sheets specifically designed for their dimensions. These sheets ensure a snug fit, preventing slipping and maintaining a polished look.

A California King mattress is slightly longer but narrower than a standard King mattress.

Learn more about the differences between a King and a California King mattress in our Mattress Size Guide.

Choosing the best California King mattress depends on your unique sleep needs and preferences. Start by looking into the material: memory foam offers excellent contouring, hybrid designs provide balanced support and comfort, and dual-sided options allow you to adjust firmness as needed.

Cooling features are essential for hot sleepers, while firmness levels can vary from soft to extra firm based on your comfort. Durability and ease of maintenance should also be considered to provide long-term value.

No, a California King mattress cannot fit in a standard King bed frame due to its different dimensions. A California King is longer and narrower, so you’ll need a compatible bed frame designed for this size. Browse our Bedframe Collection for options that pair perfectly with your mattress.

Choosing the right sheets can make all the difference in your sleep quality. Your preference will play a role in which material you choose, but here are some things to keep in mind.

• Cotton Sheets: Known for their breathability and softness, cotton sheets help regulate temperature, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. They are also highly durable and get softer with each wash, making them a long-lasting bedding choice.

• Microfiber Sheets: Made from finely woven synthetic fibers, microfiber sheets are incredibly durable, wrinkle-resistant, and moisture-wicking. They are an excellent choice for those who prefer low-maintenance sheets that dry quickly and maintain a smooth texture even after frequent washes.

• Silk Bed Sheets: Luxuriously soft and smooth, silk sheets give you unparalleled comfort. They naturally regulate temperature, keeping you cool in warm weather and warm in cooler months. Additionally, silk sheets are hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin, making them an ideal option for those with allergies or skin sensitivities.

Quick Tip: When selecting sheets, prioritize comfort by considering your sleep temperature and maintenance preferences. Choose breathable fabrics if you sleep hot or easy-care materials for convenience. 

Investing in high-quality sheets is an investment in your overall well-being. Research shows that comfortable bedding can improve sleep quality by reducing nighttime disturbances and helping regulate body temperature.

High-thread-count cotton or blended microfiber sheets not only feel softer but are also designed for long-term durability, resisting wear and pilling over time.

Additionally, premium sheets maintain their shape and texture after multiple washes, so they remain as luxurious as the day you bought them.

A thoughtfully chosen bedding set enhances sleep hygiene, promotes deeper rest, and creates a more inviting and restorative sleep environment.

Washing your sheets regularly helps maintain cleanliness and extends their lifespan.

Experts recommend washing sheets at least once a week to remove sweat, oils, and allergens. Using a gentle detergent and avoiding high heat can also keep your sheets feeling fresh and soft for longer.

Microfiber sheets are a popular choice for their unique combination of softness, affordability, and easy maintenance.

These sheets feature tightly woven fibers that make them highly resistant to wrinkles. They are also quick-drying, which is a huge plus for those with busy lifestyles.

Additionally, microfiber sheets offer several key benefits:

• Hypoallergenic Properties: Their dense weave helps prevent dust mites and allergens from settling, making them an excellent option for allergy sufferers.

• Exceptional Durability: Microfiber sheets resist pilling and fraying, maintaining their quality even after frequent washes.

• Moisture-Wicking Ability: They help wick away sweat and moisture, keeping you cool and comfortable throughout the night.

• Vibrant and Long-Lasting Color: Unlike some cotton sheets that fade over time, microfiber sheets retain their color and smooth texture.

Quick Tip: To maximize the longevity of your microfiber sheets, wash them in cold water and avoid high heat drying, which can weaken the fibers over time.

Your sleep position will determine the best pillow shape for you. Here are some examples of which one might suit you best:

• Side Sleepers: You'll benefit from a thicker pillow that fills the space between your head and shoulders.

• Back Sleepers: You may prefer a medium-loft pillow for proper neck alignment.

• Stomach Sleepers: You'll notice better sleep with a thinner, softer option to avoid strain.

• A good rule of thumb: if your shoulders are wider, choose a thicker pillow. If they’re narrow, a lower loft pillow will likely give you better support.

Keep in mind that your pillow isn't the only factor impacting how your body feels. Your mattress also affects how you sleep and how you feel when you wake out. A high-quality mattress and pillow is the best combo for a healthy, happy rest. 

There are several types of foam pillows and personal preference plays a big role in finding one you love. Some common types include memory foam for contouring support, latex foam for a responsive feel, and polyfoam for a budget-friendly option. 

Memory foam pillows adjust based on the shape of your head and neck, offering personalized support and pressure relief.

Latex foam pillows provide a responsive feel with natural elasticity, making them ideal for those who prefer firmer and bouncier support. 

Polyfoam pillows are budget-friendly with a soft and supportive structure. While they provide decent cushioning, they tend to break down faster than memory or latex foam, making them a good choice for temporary or guest use.

If you want consistent comfort and durability, try our bamboo charcoal-infused memory foam pillow or our copper-infused memory foam pillow. They're designed to last and give you the support to get a great night's rest.

Pillows should be replaced every 1-2 years for the best support and hygiene. Over time, pillows lose shape, collect dust mites, and affect sleep quality.

If your pillow is lumpy or no longer offers proper support, it's time to upgrade to a fresh, ergonomic option from Ergomotion.

Bamboo pillows typically last 2-3 years with proper care. The breathable bamboo cover enhances airflow and resists allergens, keeping your pillow fresh longer.

To extend its lifespan, fluff your pillow regularly and use a protective pillowcase. Explore our bamboo pillow options for a cooler, more comfortable sleep.
