Alternating Pressure Mattress by Vive - Includes Electric Pump & Mattress Pad - Inflatable Bed Pad for Pressure Ulcer and Pressure Sore Treatment - Fits Standard Hospital Beds

My mom has been using this for over a year and it has worked perfectly. It really helped with comfort and support. The material is good quality and durable. It even comes with its own repair patches, which is very useful in case it gets punctured. Overall, it’s a great product and definitely worth it.

I bought this for my husband when he came out of hospital having broken his pelvis in multiple places - it was easy to assemble although the pipes are quite stiff to get on , but they stay on - it’s a very large single size, nice and long and tucks in at foot if the bed - I didn’t want to get a hospital bed as he’s tall - it’s been going 24 hours a day for several weeks - the little engine is very quiet and sits under the bed - the switch has a noticeable green light so you can see if it’s on or off from a distance - I really recommend this - forget the more expensive ones ! I don’t know about long term but it’s certainly ideal for post surgery - thank you

Un articulo necesario y cómodo para las personas que se encuentran postradas, muy recomendable para que no se lastimen mas estar tanto tiempo acostados

The mattress arrived very quickly, but I could not use it as it was wired for American 120 volt instead of 240 volt Australian- my fault for not checking first. Returning it was managed fairly.

I purchased the Vive Alternating Pressure Pad w/electric pump for my 79 year old father who is bedridden due to a stroke. We had been using the manual pump air mattresses that we'd bring home from the hospital, only to have them pop after about a month's use. Well, after going through 3 of those and dad always complaining of his body hurting after they'd deflate a little, I decided on this purchase! Boy, am I glad I did!! This air mattress, just after one night's use, has already had an immediately positive effect on my dad. Set to the firmest setting, what is recommended, had my dad sleeping like a baby and zero complaints of body aches!! He looks like a king content on his throne now!! My review for the mechanics of the equipment is this: the mattress is of high quality material, durable, soft, flexible, and comfortable to the touch with little to no plastic or rubber odor, which I greatly appreciate! Fits the Medicare provided hospital bed perfectly, and adjusts with the bed when raising or lowering either the foot or head! The electric pump is extremely quiet and does exactly as described, cycling every 6 minutes. I can actually see my dad's body rise and fall, ever so slightly, as the air gets redistributed through the channels! My one observation that I had not read about or anticipated was the heat that is produced by the little electrical power box that hooks onto the foot of the bed. After about a 5 hours of use, the room where my dad stays became very warm, as did my dad. I also would get very warm every time I went in to check on him or tend to him. I thought it was just us and the unusually warm temperature outside. Then it dawned on me that it was the power box. This is the only ongoing power item in the room sized 20x20 ft. While it's not a deal breaker in keeping the item, cause it's benefits far outweigh this one minor caveat, it is something that we have to consider. So, here's what we've done to accommodate the slight rise in temperature: we've changed our fleece winter sheets back to crisp cotton, which dad found quite refreshing, and put a little fan in the corner of the room to circulate the cooler air, the air closer to dad's bed seemed to get a bit stagnant with the extra heat. All that being said, and after making the slight modifications to accommodate the new air mattress, we are most pleased with this purchase! My only regret is that I didn't make it month's ago when first home with dad!
