The motorised base adjusts the back, shoulders, neck, calves, and feet independently via a wired handset, and comes complete with the matching Hatton headboard included as standard - all finished in a single Graceland Graphite fabric. Available in Adjustable Single only as a fixed, non-storage configuration, it's backed by a 5-year guarantee, and qualifying customers can buy it VAT-free.
A medium tension, Gel-Flex cooling adjustable bed with a 5-part frame and wired handset, designed as a ready-to-go, single-size solution for sleepers who want positioning, temperature regulation, and a complete look - base, mattress, and headboard - in one straightforward purchase.

Worth Knowing
Pocket Spring System
What it is: 1000 individually wrapped springs that respond independently to weight and movement across the mattress.
How it helps you: Each spring moves without affecting those around it, so the mattress contours to your body rather than creating a general hollow.
Gel-Flex Cooling Foam
What it is: A gel-infused foam layer designed to provide a cooling effect.
How it helps you: Helps dissipate body heat, contributing to a cooler, more comfortable sleep experience.
Foam Encapsulated Edges
What it is: A high-density foam strip placed inside the edge of the mattress springs.
How it helps you: Prevents the mattress from sagging at the edge, giving a more supportive sleeping area and more usable edge-to-edge space.
Micro Quilted Cover
What it is: A knitted top panel that is soft, breathable, and stretchy.
How it helps you: Provides a comfortable, snug sleeping surface that moves with you.
5-Part Adjustable Frame
What it is: A motorised frame divided into five independently moving sections - back, shoulders, neck, calves, and feet.
How it helps you: Lets you fine-tune your sleeping or resting position with precision - useful for finding a position that supports specific areas of the back or relieves pressure on the legs.
Wooden Sprung Slat Base
What it is: Wooden slats with a natural spring, used in the base in place of a rigid platform.
How it helps you: Works in conjunction with the mattress to flex where you exert the most pressure, giving a comfortable and supportive feel whether the bed is flat or elevated.
Twin Motor Mechanism
What it is: Two separate motors, allowing the head and foot of the bed to be adjusted independently.
How it helps you: Lets you find your ideal sleeping or resting position, adjusting head and foot at the same time or separately - useful for tailored support or added comfort.
Wired Handset
What it is: A corded remote control that connects to the base and operates the motors.
How it helps you: Provides reliable, straightforward control - always within reach on the bedside, with no batteries required.
Glides
What it is: Stylish glides fitted to the underside of the base.
How it helps you: Add a contemporary, luxurious feel to the room while keeping the base stable in position.
Hatton Headboard
What it is: A padded, panelled headboard finished in the same Graceland Graphite fabric as the base, included as standard with this Express bed.
How it helps you: Provides a complete, coordinated look straight out of the box, and gives essential support for your back and neck when sitting up to read or relax - with no separate purchase needed.

Vs standard divan beds: A standard divan bed sits flat and cannot be adjusted. An adjustable bed allows independent elevation of the head and foot, which is useful for reading, watching TV, managing snoring or acid reflux, or supporting recovery from surgery or illness. Divan beds are typically lower in profile, simpler to dress, and cost significantly less. An adjustable bed is the right choice when positioning matters - for health reasons or everyday comfort. If a flat, low-profile bed is what you need, a divan is the better fit.
Vs other adjustable beds in the range: The Gel Flex 1000 Express is a fixed, ready-to-go configuration - one size, one fabric colour, no storage, and no upgrade base - designed for straightforward, fast-turnaround delivery rather than customisation. Other Adjust-A-Bed models in the range, such as the Backcare Firm, Derwent, and Eclipse, offer a full size range, a choice of fabrics, an optional Lifestyle upgrade base, and (on those models) an optional rather than included headboard. Choose the Express model if you want a complete set with the fewest decisions and the fastest delivery; choose another model in the range if you want to choose your size, fabric, or base tier.
The Gel Flex 1000 Express is backed by Adjust-A-Bed's 5-year guarantee, covering the base, mattress, and motorised mechanisms against defects in materials and workmanship. Motor cover is included as standard, giving buyers confidence in the build quality of a product that is more mechanically complex than a standard bed.
The Gel Flex 1000 Express combines a medium tension, Gel-Flex cooling mattress with a 5-part adjustable base and a matching Hatton headboard included as standard - a complete, ready-to-go set with a 5-year guarantee, for anyone who wants positioning and temperature regulation without any decisions to make on size, fabric, or base tier. Free UK delivery is included.
VAT relief is available for qualifying customers. Find out if you are eligible.
