Construction and Design
The Nectar Adjustable Bed Frame is a sturdy, reliable bed frame that is unlikely to move or rattle, even when adjusting positions. Plus, the dark gray fabric and dark metal of the frame offer a neutral aesthetic that’s ideal if you’re looking for a clean, simple design.
The Move Adjustable Bed Frame also offers a sturdy, metal frame, which makes for a sleek and clean black design that suits many interior styles. The metal construction of the Move Adjustable Frame also ensures the bed is reliable when changing positions.
Both the Nectar frame and the Move frame have adjustable base legs that connect to the frame and should be attached during setup. The adjustable legs let you set up the bed based on your desired height, which reduces the likelihood of accidents when getting in and out of bed.
You’ll also find 10 inches of storage space under the Nectar Adjustable Frame, and 12 inches of storage under the Move Adjustable Frame, which adds an element of convenience.
The frames also include a wireless remote control that controls the bed’s massage, zero-gravity, and anti-snore features. You can also use the remote to position the bed to a raised position labeled “TV” to easily watch your favorite show. Three favorite saved sleeping positions are available at the click of a button.
Both motors on the Nectar Adjustable Bed Frame and the Move Adjustable Frame that control the bed’s position move the bed smoothly and quietly, no matter which position you select. Both of these bed frames also include a metal retainer bar, which keeps the mattress from moving out of place or shuffling around—this is especially useful when the massage mode is turned on.
Features
To meet the diverse needs of older adults, both the Nectar Adjustable Bed Frame and the Move Adjustable Frame offer several features, including zero-gravity position, massaging, USB plugs, and a wireless remote.
Zero-Gravity Position
Nectar’s zero-gravity option offers a wealth of health benefits. Designed to mimic an astronaut’s sleeping posture, the zero-gravity position helps relieve stress and tension from your body by elevating your head 120 degrees and your feet 45 degrees. This sleeping position also encourages proper blood circulation, aids in proper digestion (which is great if you have GERD), and can help reduce swelling in the legs. Ultimately, the zero-gravity position helps you fall asleep more quickly, and by supporting your spine, neck, head, legs, and feet, it can relieve the aches and pain which might otherwise wake you up.
Massage
The Nectar base and the Move base have built-in massage features. Both of these bases have foot and head massagers, which can be used together or independently. Reviewers have described the massage setting as “a relaxing vibration” that can sometimes be loud. You can choose from low, medium, and high massage settings and enjoy them for 10, 20, or 30 minutes at a time.
Wireless Remote
Nectar’s wireless remote makes it easy to adjust your sleeping position as needed. Sleeping in the proper position can relieve stress on your spine, while an unhealthy position can lead to low-quality sleep due to back, leg, or arm pain.
According to the Healthline, sleeping on your side is one of the best sleeping positions for older adults. A wireless remote allows you to change your sleeping position while you’re in bed so you can discover the settings that are most comfortable for you.
Additional Features
Both the Move Adjustable Bed Frame and Nectar Adjustable Bed Frame have two USB outlets, programmable memory settings, and independent head and foot settings. The USB outlets on the side of the bases are a convenient way to charge your phone or plug in other electronics, while the programmable memory settings remember your preferred adjustment. Finally, independent head and foot settings are perfect for creating the ideal sleeping position.
Setting Up the Frame
Setting up the Nectar Adjustable Bed Frame or Move Adjustable Base is relatively simple. The frames come pre-assembled in two parts, but both frames require some wires and cords to be connected, as well as the addition of the legs and motors.
A manual with step-by-step setup instructions (with visuals) is included with both frames. Ideally, it should take about 30 to 40 minutes to set up the frame you choose.
Which Mattress Should I Use with the Nectar Adjustable Base or Move Adjustable Base?
There are many different mattresses and mattress types that are compatible with the Nectar adjustable base and the Move adjustable base. While we recommend the Nectar mattress, memory foam, latex, and air mattresses are the most common adjustable mattresses, while innerspring mattresses sometimes don’t work as well with an adjustable bed frame. Make sure you use a mattress that is 8–12 inches tall so that the frame fits within the retainer bar and doesn’t slide out of place.
How Much Does the Nectar Adjustable Bed Frame Cost vs. the Move Adjustable Frame?
The price of both the Nectar Adjustable Bed Frame and the Move Adjustable Bed Frames are comparable to other brands. However, the Nectar Adjustable Frame is available in twin XL, full, queen, and split king, while the Move Adjustable Frame is available in twin XL, queen, and split king.
