Best Adjustable Bed and Mattress Combo: How to Choose Memory Foam, Air, or Latex
The best adjustable bed and mattress combo depends on budget and how many features you want on the adjustable bed frame. Memory foam is the most affordable and most popular choice, an air mattress lets each sleeper change firmness with a remote, and a latex mattress has interchangeable layers so you can rebuild the feel over time.
Buying an adjustable bed frame and mattress combo together removes the biggest risk of buying separately: a mattress that cracks, bunches, or fights the base when it bends. Every combo below is built to flex with the base, and you choose the comfort layer that fits your body, your partner, and your budget.
This guide compares the three mattress types we pair with adjustable bases, explains which base features are worth paying for, and shows the split sizes couples ask about most.

Memory Foam: The Affordable Adjustable Bed and Mattress Combo
For a low cost adjustable bed and mattress combo, most shoppers choose memory foam. Foam bends with the base without bunching, it relieves pressure at the hips and shoulders, and it costs far less than air or latex.
Our 10" memory foam combo uses a gel infused top layer for breathability over a supportive foam core. It pairs with the Classic 300 Series base, which includes massage, wireless remotes, three programmable memory positions, a zero gravity position, and a 10 year warranty on the base.
If you searched for a cheap bed frame and mattress combo but still want to raise your head and feet, this is the place to start.

An air mattress lets you adjust firmness, not just position. Each sleeper gets a wireless remote with 50 settings, from extra firm to very soft, so one partner can sleep firm while the other sleeps plush on the same bed.
The 12" air mattress has a medium feel pillow top, a pump built into the rail (no hoses on the floor), and zoned support. You choose the adjustable base, including options with lumbar support, wall hugging design, massage, voice control, and pillow tilt.

Our latex combos are interchangeable. Each 13" natural latex mattress has four comfort layers you can rearrange to make it softer or firmer, and you can replace a single layer later instead of the whole mattress.
The split queen latex set comes with a fully loaded massaging base: two wireless remotes, phone app control, five preset positions (zero gravity, anti snore, lounge, TV, flat), 12 dual zone massage options, under bed LED nightlights, USB charging, an 850 pound weight capacity, and a 20 year warranty.

The best adjustable bed frame and mattress combo is the one with features you will use every night. These are the bases we carry and who each one helps:
- Lumbar back support: a separate adjustment that lifts the lower back, useful for back pain and long reading sessions.
- Hi-low bases for seniors: the whole bed raises and lowers, which makes getting in and out easier and safer.
- Voice control: move the bed hands free, helpful for limited mobility or a lost remote.
- Massage: head and foot zones with timer settings to relax before sleep.
- Pillow tilt: angles your head forward so you can read or watch TV without stacking pillows.
- Zero gravity and anti snore presets: one touch positions that take pressure off the spine or slightly raise the head.
Split Queen and Split Cal King: Sizes for Couples
A split size uses two mattresses on two bases (or one dual base) so each side moves on its own. One partner can sit up to read while the other stays flat.
Split king is common, but many bedrooms fit a queen better, and many retailers do not carry split queen or split cal king. We do, so you can get independent sides without changing your bed size. Split queen is two 30" x 80" halves, and split cal king is two halves of a 72" x 84" bed.
King and Queen Size Bed and Mattress Combo Deals: What to Check
When comparing king size bed and mattress combo deals or queen size bed and mattress combo deals, the lowest price is not always the best value. Check these before you buy:
- Mattress compatibility: foam, air, and latex flex well; a traditional innerspring with a stiff border often does not.
- Weight capacity: look for the total for both sleepers plus the mattress.
- Warranty on the base: motors and frames should be covered for years, not months.
- Leg height and zero clearance: make sure the base fits your existing frame or platform.
- Split options: confirm the size you want is truly split if both sleepers want to adjust separately.

Adjustable Bed and Mattress Combo FAQs
What is the best adjustable bed and mattress combo?
The best combo depends on your budget and how much control you want over comfort. Memory foam is best for value, air is best for couples with different firmness needs, and latex is best for long term flexibility.
What is the cheapest bed frame and mattress combo that adjusts?
A memory foam mattress paired with an entry level adjustable base is usually the lowest cost option. Our 10" memory foam combo with the Classic 300 Series base still includes massage and wireless remotes.
Can I use any mattress on an adjustable base?
Memory foam, air, and latex mattresses work best because they bend without damage. Many traditional innerspring mattresses are too stiff and can wear out quickly on an adjustable base.
Is a split queen adjustable bed worth it?
Yes, if you and your partner want different positions or firmness on each side. A split queen gives you that independence without moving up to a king size bed.
Which adjustable base is best for seniors?
A hi-low adjustable bed is often the best choice because it raises the bed for easier entry and exit. Adding voice control makes it even easier to use day to day.
