Therapedic Ledo Split King Mattress with Head Up Only Base

While the split king design is engineered to provide individual comfort, the "gap" is a common concern. This mattress is built with a TheraFoam encasement that provides superior edge support, helping the two units stay flush against each other. For a more permanent solution, our experts often recommend using non-slip pads between the mattress and the base or specialized mattress connector straps to ensure the two Twin XL units remain perfectly aligned.

Yes. The included RTG Sleep 2900 adjustable base allows you to elevate the head of the mattress with a wireless remote. Raising the head can help open airways to reduce snoring and provide relief for acid reflux by keeping stomach acids from rising. This mattress further supports a restful environment with GlacierTouchCool fabric and TheraSense Comfort Foam, which promote cooling airflow—essential since temperature regulation is a key factor in uninterrupted sleep.

This hybrid mattress is specifically engineered to handle the mechanical movement of an adjustable frame. It features a TheraWrap 5-Zone Support System of individually wrapped coils combined with 1,728 DuraCoil Micro Coils. These high-density coil systems are designed to flex and contour repeatedly without losing their structural integrity. The inclusion of Eco-Fiber—a sustainable yarn made from recycled water bottles—adds to the overall durability and resilience of the mattress.

To allow each side to move independently, you will need a split king sheet set. This typically includes two Twin XL fitted sheets (each designed for the individual 80"L x 38"W units) and a single King-size flat sheet to create a unified look when the bed is made. Given the 13.5-inch height and pillow-top border style of this mattress, we recommend choosing "deep pocket" sheets to ensure the fabric stays securely tucked during head-up adjustments.

This mattress features a sophisticated multi-stage cooling system. It begins with the GlacierTouchCool cover, which uses Tencel fibers for an immediate cool-to-the-touch sensation. Below the surface, the 5Z TheraCoolQuadTech Gel is infused with copper, silver, and graphite. These materials are chosen for their high thermal conductivity, effectively pulling heat away from the body to keep the mattress cooler, drier, and more hygienic throughout the night.

A split king is an ideal solution for urban apartments or homes with challenging layouts. Unlike a standard one-piece King mattress, which can be difficult to maneuver around tight corners, this set consists of two Twin XL mattresses and two modular base units. This makes it much easier to navigate through narrow doorways and up staircases, ensuring a smooth delivery and setup regardless of your home's architectural constraints.
