Firstly, dual motor control on Head-and-Foot Adjustable Beds gives independent adjustment for the upper and lower body to enable the optimum positions to be reached for both sleeping and relaxing.

Then on the Dorchester range only these two optimum positions can both be programmed into the Bed's memory by using the memory buttons on the handset. All the buttons on the Dorchester range handsets also have a useful backlight for ease of use in the dark. 

To appreciate the benefits of raising the head and upper body without the need to raise the legs above horizontal, the Head-only Adjustable Beds should be ideal. These also use sleek handsets with backlit buttons on the Dorchester range only.

All Sherborne Dorchester Beds have a strong, fully upholstered storage drawer, as standard. This also applies to the Fixed Bed option which can be specified as one half of a 5' or 6' Bed.

There is a choice of castors or glides, as standard throughout the Dorchester range.

By contrast the Hampton range rests on stylish chrome-plated legs which offer a 9.5cm (3 3/4") clearance from the floor (useful for various mobility aids).
