Vive Alternating Pressure Mattress 5" - Air Topper Pad for Bed Sore, Ulcer Prevention, Bedridden Treatment - Inflatable, Quiet Alternative Cover - Fits Hospital Bed - Includes Electric Pump System

Bought this for my mum who is elderly and bed bound.She had developed a nerve pain in her leg which was travelling up and down her body. The pain was severe when she was being turned or moved and mum needed moved frequently to prevent pressure sores.Transferred mum to this air mattress for 10 days. The ripple effect meant she did not need to be turn so frequently. The air movement also completely resolved the nerve pain in her leg. Total result was very positive.The mattress took about 30 mins to inflate fully to the maximum firmness.The pump was really quiet.There are 3 firmness setting which all worked well.The cover sheet on the mattress helpfully marked the head and feet and there were ties to secure the mattress to the bed frame.When not in use the mattress is compact and easy to store away.The mattress is a good quality and helped us provide hospital quality care at home.

Purchased this as I’m prone to pressure sores around my coccyx and heels, since receiving it’s helps 100% it has 5 firmness levels, extremely quiet pump, infact you really don’t hear it whatsoever, now I just hope the pump lasts and will see how customer support help if a breakdown happens.Buy this if your like me spinal cord injury, and lay in bed nearly 24/7 I do however suggest if you have a divan bed and partner I would opt of a super king size or queen and buy larger flat sheets to give the mattress the space to inflate and deflate, I do however 100% recommend buying this air mattress my only gripe would be is if they would also send out an extra washable cover incase of accidents and to just freshen up, if customer service read this and would kindly advise if they would offer one like most other brands I’ve shopped around for then I will update this review, if they don’t reach out I will reach out and update on here the decision, it’s a medical device and I’m surprised this isn’t exempt from VAT if evidence is provided again like most disabled products available on the web we are exempt from paying VAT

The media could not be loaded. Not fit for purpose and should not have been sold to me if they only supply to the usa

It’s a great bed topper as alternative to full hospital alternating air pressure mattress.It doesn’t seem to have movement re softInflation to hard inflation on the dial but it does alternate the pressure. It’s great. I’m delighted

Works great helped my bedridden husband not get bed sores..Very easy to install .Works away reliably.

takes a little while to pump up in first instance . but seems to work well as required .

I've tried tried various air beds but pump are always noisy but this is very quiet

As an MND sufferer. I had chronic Coccyx and pressure pains until I got this mattress. If I go to bed with these pains, from sitting in my wheelchair all day they all but disappear after just 10 minutes of lying on this mattress. Its worth mentioning that I have a hospital bed with a mattress that has the highest pressure relief rating possible. But it wasn't until I laid this mattress on top that I got any pain relief. This mattress does the job so why pay 3 times more for the same thing. I never give any products 5 stars but this one is exceptional. I forgot say how quiet it is, you wouldn't know it was running.
