Comfort Base FAQs
How heavy are the adjustable bases?
Depending on size, the box weight of an adjustable base can weigh between 110 lbs – 250 lbs. We recommend at least two people when setting up your adjustable base.
Can I set up the adjustable base by myself?
Glideaway adjustable bases come with a quick start guide in the box and can be assembled in about thirty minutes. If you want a more detailed guide, you can find the manual for your adjustable base here. We recommend setting up your adjustable base with at least two people to help with the heavy lifting.
Is a foundation or bed frame needed?
No, there is no need for a metal bed frame or foundation. The Comfort Base replaces both these items. The mattress will be directly on top of the base which offers the same support as a foundation. It also has its own legs which support the adjustable base off the floor.
Will my Comfort Base work with any mattress?
Yes. Glideaway Comfort Bases are compatible with most innerspring, hybrid, foam, and air mattresses of any brand. If you prefer an innerspring mattress, it is important to note that mattresses with a border wire are not compatible with Comfort Bases.
Do Comfort Bases come with a mattress?
No. The base is an independent part of the bed that replaces the box spring. The adjustable-friendly mattress of your choice rests on top of the base.
What does ‘Back Travel’ mean?
If a Comfort Base has the back travel feature it does not move away from the wall or nightstand as the head inclines. Instead, it moves up along the wall, keeping the nightstand within reach.
What is the Sleep Enhancement™ feature?
Sleep Enhancement™ utilizes Total Body Vibration created by a single vibe motor placed on the underside of the base, in the mid-back area. The vibrations ease you to sleep and provide you with health benefits like increasing circulation, alleviating muscle fatigue, and reducing stress hormones. It also creates a white noise effect, blocking out noises that may interrupt your sleep.
What is the Zero Gravity position?
The zero-gravity position duplicates the position astronauts take during liftoff. During liftoff, the position is meant to ease the stress on astronauts' bodies as they escape Earth’s gravity. The position raises the feet to the same level as the heart. People who have back pain or who would like to increase their circulation often find this position extremely relaxing. It creates a sensation of weightlessness.
What do I do if I lose my remote control?
You can purchase a replacement remote control directly from us. Be sure to have your Comfort Base’s serial number available so we can help you find the correct remote control for your model. Then call us at 855-581-3095 or email us.
What do I do if my Comfort Base or remote control isn’t working properly?
Please see our troubleshooting questions on this page. If that doesn’t solve your concern, call us at 855-581-3095 or email us.
Where can I find the serial number for my Comfort Base?
The serial number can be found on the underside of the base. Raise the head up of the base to see it. Split king bases will have two serial numbers.
Where can I find the owner’s manual for my Comfort Base?
Download a PDF of Comfort Base owner’s manuals here.
Can a Comfort Base go on a platform bed with storage drawers underneath?
Only the Vesta model can accommodate drawers with our Zero Clearance Kit. If you would like to purchase a Zero Clearance Kit or other accessories, call 1.855.581.3095.
What does the feature “Elevate” or “Elevation” mean?
There are many health and lifestyle benefits to sleeping in an elevated position but for side and stomach sleepers, sleeping in traditional adjustable bases can be uncomfortable. Our Elevation feature provides these benefits for those who prefer to sleep on their side or stomach.
Can my current furniture and linens be used with my Comfort Base?
Yes. Existing headboards and bed linens can be used with your Comfort Base. If you would like to purchase a headboard bracket or other accessories, call 1.855.581.3095.
Where can I find the warranty for my Comfort Base?
Our warranty information can be found here. For specific questions about your warranty or to find out if you base is still covered, call 855-581-3095 or email our warranty team.
