The Oakheart Electric Adjustable Bed

This elegant Oakheart bed comprises a strong four-piece solid oak frame with two robust, reliable electric adjustable actions and premium-grade Latex back-care mattresses. The unique Shaker-style bed is hand-made to Electric Bed Shop specifications by a family firm of furniture designers based in rural Suffolk.

Underbed Drawers

These neat drawers reflect the Electric Bed Shop’s attention to detail. They are extremely strong, with solid wood bottoms, designed to help you tuck away a tremendous amount of ‘stuff’! Tough weight-bearing 2” barrel castors, make it very easy to glide the drawers in and out under the bed.

Bedside chests

A perfect complement to the Oakheart bed’s minimalist-no-fuss Shaker-style headboards and side panels. The sturdy bedside chests have three spacious drawers with a choice of either metal or wooden handles.

Why Latex Mattresses?

We recommend customers visit the Electric Bed Shop to try beds before buying them. But if you live too far away and wish to buy a bed online and untried, then you can be fairly confident our Latex mattresses will suit you.

• Our mattresses are made of 100% natural Latex with seven comfort zones. Other mattresses containing pocket springs or memory foam are also available.

• Latex is the milky sap tapped from rubber trees. It coagulates when exposed to air and is the chief source of natural rubber. The natural properties of latex foam provide an environment free from micro-organisms, mites and dust.
  
  
• Latex foam has an open cell structure, comprising millions of air bubbles, plus vertical hollow channels from the moulding process, which ensures optimal ventilation, making it cool to the touch and highly resilient, giving full support along your entire body length.
  
  
• Our Latex mattresses have seven comfort zones (areas across the mattress, which have different strengths of foam) which instantly adapt to the body contours, keeping your spinal column in its natural position whether you sleep on your back, side or front. When these superb mattresses are combined with the effects of adjustable flexi-slats in electric adjustable bases, your comfort is virtually assured.
  
  
• Having sold electric adjustable beds since 1989, we believe Latex mattresses to be the best at ‘hugging’ an adjustable bed’s flexible profiling action. They are long-lasting and guaranteed for up to 15 years.
  
  
• Choose your preferred mattress ‘feel’. Either: Soft, Medium or Firm-feel. Each type of mattress will still have its appropriately graded comfort zones.
  
  
• Approximately 20 cm (8") deep, comprising 18 cm (7") thick Latex mattress in a deep quilted, zipped removable cover.
  
  
• Our quilted mattress covers are made of natural fibres derived from plants. Currently we use covers made from natural fibre. This super-soft stretch material is designed to wick away excess moisture and heat. Tencel and Bamboo fabrics are particularly helpful for people with sensitive skin. They can be machine washed at under 30 degrees, using a gentle cycle and a mild liquid detergent. Allow to dry naturally.
  
  
• Tencel fibre
  Tencel is a fibre man-made from wood pulp, which means it is fully biodegradable. The wood pulp used to produce Tencel is usually harvested from trees planted on land is not suitable for food crops or grazing.
  The process is used to make Tencel yarn from wood pulp, has also been carefully planned to be environmentally friendly. In what is referred to as a “closed loop” system, the solvent used to produce Tencel is continually reused, which minimises the amount of water and energy needed to produce this new fibre.
  Not only is Tencel environmentally friendly, it is “soft as silk, strong as polyester, cool as linen, warm as wool, and as absorbent as cotton.”
  Tencel is moisture absorbent, has natural breathability and a 50% greater moisture absorption capacity than cotton.
  
  
• Bamboo fibre – better than organic cotton
