  • If you want to turn your bed into a home office, a spa, and a wireless charging pad, here's your solution.
  • The Reverie 9T Adjustable Foundation manages to be much more than an attractive (and comfortable) bed frame with a veritable cornucopia for extra features that you never even knew you wanted.
  • Whether you prefer to sleep with your legs and head slightly elevated or want to sleep in a totally different configuration than your partner, the Reverie is here to ensure that you get one of the best night's sleep of your life.
  • Be warned, though, this kind of comfort comes at a price.

When it comes to getting a great night's sleep, sometimes, it's not all about the mattress. It's not about the pillow, either, or even the quality of your partner. Really, it comes down to your bed frame. And with the Reverie 9T Adjustable Foundation, you can make your bed frame into just about anything that you want.

While I never thought much about the necessity of a bed frame, I stood thoroughly corrected after trying out the Reverie base for the first time. I'd been sleeping on a years-old metal frame and foundation setup, and thought that perhaps I was in need of a new mattress, or at the very least, a new mattress topper. As it turned out, the real issue was my foundation — the slats were no longer quite as supportive, and I didn't realize just how much my perfectly lovely mattress had been sagging. That is, until the Reverie came into my life.

Not only is the deck-on-deck design extremely supportive (it comprises an upholstered, movable foundation atop a solid lower), but more importantly, it's extremely customizable. With the quickly rechargeable LED-screen remote, you can elevate just about any part of the bed to your comfort level. I found this to be particularly useful when I was working on my laptop in bed. Rather than having to create a veritable pillow fort in order to properly prop up my body to what I hoped was an ergonomic position, I could instead bring up the the upper part of the mattress so that I was practically sitting in a recliner. You can also elevate the lower part of the bed, of course, if you prefer to sleep with your legs slightly lifted, or bring both sides of the bed up simultaneously.

Reverie

The remote control comes with presets for Anti-Snore, which is some proprietary combination of moving your head and legs up in such a manner that you apparently breathe more freely when you're asleep, and Zero Gravity, which seems to be all the rage but I find decidedly uncomfortable. While I'm sure some folks feel like they're floating when they're nearly folded in half, I didn't get the appeal. But of course, that's the beauty of the Reverie. If you don't like one position, it's just a couple touches of a button before you're in a much more comfortable place.

Reverie

The Reverie also features lumbar support, which you can adjust by degree as per your personal needs. You'd be surprised what a couple adjustments on that setting can do for you — even if you don't have back pain, having more fulsome support definitely makes a difference.

But wait, you say. What if I find the perfect setting for me, but my partner doesn't agree? As it turns out, Reverie has a solution for that, too.

The split-king model of this bed frame actually allows you to control the two sides of your bed completely independently. So if your significant other needs to stop snoring and you want to sleep at a 90-degree angle, you can both win. Who needs compromise in a relationship when you have an adjustable bed frame?

Reverie

But aside from the Reverie's virtues as a bed, it also boasts a couple of extra bells and whistles that make it particularly attractive.

For example, there's the 3D Wave massage therapy aspect —  it comes in four waves and a whopping 10 intensities. Some massage chairs don't even feature that much optionality. Additionally, the bed has a charging pad that can wirelessly charge compatible smartphones, or for those of us without a phone capable of induction charging, there's also a USB port. Honestly, it's like you don't even have to ever leave your bed.  

If you have any complaints about your bed, it comes with a 20-year limited warranty. Plus, thanks to its white glove delivery service, an expert will actually come to your home to help you set everything up.

As wonderful as everything about the Reverie is, I should certainly point out that this kind of luxury comes at a price. If you're not looking to spend at least $1,000 on a bed frame, you may want to look elsewhere. But while the price is steep, the sleep you'll be able to get on a mattress atop this frame is pretty priceless.
