About Flexabed
Handcrafted in USA since 1969
The luxury alternative to a hospital bed for home
Flexabed has been hand-building adjustable beds in Lafayette, Georgia since 1969. The brand was founded on a simple premise, that home healthcare and assisted living shouldn't require institutional-looking furniture, and that adjustable beds should be built to last decades with the same standards as fine furniture. Every Flexabed is custom-built to specification by the same team of expert craftsmen who have been refining the product line for over 55 years.

About Flexabed
Built to your specifications, not pulled off a warehouse shelf
Flexabed isn't a production-line product. You specify size, length, mattress type, options, and finish, the bed is then built to that specification in Lafayette and shipped direct. The build standard does not change with the option list, every base, every motor, and every mattress receives the same care whether you order the simplest configuration or the most loaded one.
The result is a bed that fits your specific needs the way a custom mattress fits a custom bed frame: precisely. Combined with the industry-leading transferable warranty, the Flexabed becomes a long-term investment, not a short-term medical purchase that gets replaced in five years.
Manuals & Documents
Operations manual and warranty
Download the official Flexabed Hi-Low Adjustable Bed operations manual and warranty document below. Review the operations manual before use to understand the smart controls, optional accessory operation, and recommended maintenance. The warranty document includes the full transferable Limited Lifetime Warranty terms.
Warranty
Flexabed Limited Lifetime Warranty (transferable)
Because Flexabed builds every bed by hand, the entire bed is covered, every component, every design feature, including the mattress. The warranty is transferable to subsequent owners, so if you sell or give the bed away, it remains under warranty.
Motors & lifting mechanism
During the first 12 months after purchase, Flexabed provides in-home parts and labor at no charge (parts shipped UPS ground, expedited charges paid by customer). After the first year, any part can be sent to the factory (freight prepaid by customer) for repair, reconditioning, or replacement at the factory's option for a $100 fee plus return shipping.
Mattress & upholstered base
During the first 12 months, in-home repairs or replacement (at factory's option) are provided at no charge for genuine defects in materials or workmanship beyond normal wear. After the first year, the mattress or upholstered base can be sent to the factory (freight prepaid by customer) for repair, reconditioning, or replacement at factory's option for a $100 fee, returned freight collect. Mattresses showing signs of abuse or wetting void the warranty.
Exclusions
The warranty does not cover customer misuse, electrical surges, damage in transit or handling by the delivering agent (unless the customer signs the bill of lading with damages noted), or products altered or repaired by unauthorized representatives. Replacement parts are warranted for the unexpired balance of the original warranty period. Proof of purchase from an authorized dealer is required for any claim, and we are an authorized Flexabed dealer.
