7 Best Split King Adjustable Beds of 2025

Weight capacity: 850 lbs | Height: 13–18 in. | Return policy: No returns | Warranty: 25-year limited warranty and 10-year limited warranty option

This adjustable base checks off every box for a seamless, personalized sleep experience with the bonus of free white-glove delivery, meaning a team will come in to set up the bed in the room of your choice. Not only does the Saatva base offer standard head and foot elevation, but the continuous controlled movement allows you to customize it to nearly any sleep position. Plus, the base also has under-bed lighting to navigate late-night bathroom trips, wall-hugging technology so you stay within reach of your nightstand as you adjust the head of your bed and a weight limit of 850 pounds.

Among our survey panel, Saatva is a favorite brand for its mattresses, thanks to its quality materials and excellent service, and this adjustable bed meets those criteria too. One user highlighted the preset zero-gravity position and said it helps both her and her husband "fall asleep pretty quickly."

Note that the bed comes in an adjustable height of 13 to 18 inches, so those with mobility issues may want to opt for a thinner mattress to keep the total height lower and minimize difficulty getting in and out of bed.

EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT: Good Housekeeping readers can take $300 off their Saatva orders (with a minimum $1000 spend and purchase of a mattress) by shopping through our exclusive link.

While quality split king adjustable bed bases can cost thousands of dollars, this pick from Lucid is great if you're looking for the same functionality at a fraction of the price. Just note that you'll have to buy two Twin XL bases to get the equivalent of a split king bed. It might not have massage capabilities or under-bed lighting like more high-end beds, but there are built-in USB ports and the base offers head and foot elevation with an easy-to-use wireless remote and the option to pre-program your favorite position.

Setup is simple and easy, according to the brand, which says it takes five minutes to set up on your own, but note that the two-part split king system can be heavy and difficult to maneuver. And the best part: There is a 100-day trial period.

If you're looking for a way to integrate a new adjustable base into your smart home, consider adding this option from Tempur-Pedic. It has all the features our testers love, including pre-programmed positions with the option to customize your own to help prevent snoring and optimize comfort, a vibrating massage mode with multiple intensities, USB ports and under-bed lighting, with bonus high-tech capabilities, thanks to the accompanying app. The app allows you to connect the base to your voice assistant, track your sleep quality over time and control the base if you've misplaced the remote.

This model thrilled our testers, who appreciated the well-thought-out design and claimed it provided everything they could want from an adjustable bed and more. Plus, the lumbar support control provided excellent support for side and back sleepers.

Beyond that, we were also impressed with its ability to measure the temperature, humidity and air quality of the room and communicate that information through the Tempur-Pedic app. While all these features come at a high price, you can also expect free white-glove delivery.

Weight capacity: 400 to 800 lbs | Height: 15 in. | Return policy: Free returns | Warranty: Lifetime warranty

If you're unsure whether a split king adjustable bed is right for you, we love that this adjustable base from Puffy has all the bells and whistles with the added benefit of a 101-night sleep trial. The bed offers the classic benefits of head- and foot-raising, the coveted pressure-relieving zero-gravity position and convenient USB ports. Additional features like under-bed lighting and dual massage zones make this a nice choice, and it comes at a lower price than similar models we've reviewed. Plus, it includes a universal headboard mount at no extra cost.

In our tests, users were impressed by how easy and intuitive the controls were and one noted, "[The base] was very quiet while adjusting," although, you need to use the remote since there's no accompanying app. Some also noted the massage function felt more like a vibration. We appreciate that the brand offers free returns with its sleep trial, as most do not allow any returns for adjustable bases.

Weight capacity: 650 lbs | Height: Options of 4 in, 7 in, 10 in, 13 in and 16 in. | Return policy: No returns | Warranty: 25-year limited warranty

Sometimes, simple is better. While under-bed lighting, sleep tracking and massage modes are impressive, they're not exactly core features of an adjustable bed. This straightforward model just offers the essentials: It allows you to raise your head and feet to find your most comfortable sleep position. Plus, the large range of height adjustability allows you to lower your bed close to the ground or raise it up to 16 inches to make getting in and out of bed easier.

Our older testers were immediately impressed when they tried out this base, appreciating the free white-glove delivery, user-friendly controls and relatively quiet motor. Some described it as "excellent," and one user with restless leg syndrome loved being able to raise the foot of the bed. On top of that, he shared, "Being able to adjust [the head of the bed] was a big help in controlling my coughing due to acid reflux."

Weight capacity: 800 lbs | Height: Mattress height of 11 in. | Return policy: 100 night trial for mattress with no returns for adjustable base. | Warranty: 15-year warranty

Looking to purchase an adjustable mattress and base together? This pick from Sleep Number (a brand that has earned our Good Housekeeping Seal) was a top performer in our evaluations and a crowd favorite among our tester panel. Each side of the mattress has adjustable air chambers to customize the bed to your ideal firmness.

It also features sleep tracking and biometric sensors to maintain that firmness as you move in the night. The two matching adjustable bases also have additional features like classic head and foot raising capabilities and under-bed lighting, plus added features like feet warming and anti-snoring options for the pricier models. There is even a 100-night trial period.

While this mattress and base combo is expensive, both long-term and new users told us it was worth the extra splurge. Sleep Number also received top scores for comfort, sleep quality and support from more than 300 users on our consumer panel with several sharing that they wished they would have purchased the brand sooner. Just note that you can't use these adjustable bases with any non-Sleep Number mattresses and there is an extra delivery cost of $249.

Known for its presence in brick-and-mortar stores, Leggett & Platt is one of the oldest and most popular adjustable bed base brands available, and its Prodigy PT base lives up to the brand's reputation. It has a MicroHook system with Velcro-like strips to keep your mattress in place as it moves, plus massage capabilities, under-bed lighting and the ability to set an alarm using the base's slow movement to gently wake you up through the accompanying app. The bed also comes with a simple wireless remote for effortless position changing and other basic features.

This model impressed us with the brand's specialized Wallhugger engineering, meaning it won't pull you away from your nightstand as the base raises your bed. We also like the adjustable legs, which are perfect for customizing the overall height of the bed. Users from our testing panel also told us they loved using the eight USB ports on the base for charging their phones and tablets.

The caveat here is that you'll have to purchase two Twin XL bases and put them together.
