Hi Lo Adjustable Beds in Perth

Hospital-grade height adjustment, delivered free anywhere in Perth

Perth families shopping for a hi-lo bed are usually told the same thing: come in to the showroom. But when the person the bed is for uses a wheelchair, tires quickly, or can't be left home alone, the showroom trip is exactly the obstacle. The Sophie HiLo Adjustable Bed removes it. We consult by phone, then deliver and professionally install the bed free anywhere in Perth — or anywhere in Western Australia — and demonstrate everything in the bedroom it will actually live in.

The bed itself does what the best care beds do: the whole platform rises electrically to a carer's working height and lowers for safe transfers and reduced fall height, while the head and foot sections articulate independently with wireless remote presets. What it refuses to do is look like hospital equipment. It's bedroom furniture with clinical capability, not the other way around.

What a HiLo bed changes for you and your carer

Transfers, hoist access and fall prevention

Most injuries around a care bed happen at the edges of the day — getting in, getting out, being helped to move. Whole-bed height adjustment attacks all three risks. The bed lowers until the distance to the floor is short enough that a night-time fall loses most of its danger. It rises until a wheelchair transfer becomes a level slide rather than a climb. And it gives transfer equipment and the people operating it room to work at a sensible height. If an OT has written "height-adjustable bed" into an assessment, these are the mechanics behind the recommendation.

A bed that rises to carer height — and lowers for safety

The other half of the story is the person doing the caring. Helping someone dress, wash or reposition in a standard-height bed means dozens of deep forward bends every single day, and carers' backs keep the score. One press raises the entire bed to elbow height; the work happens standing upright; the carer lasts the distance. In our experience it's this feature, more than any other, that keeps care arrangements sustainable at home in the long run.

Presets tie the whole system together. During installation we program the wireless remote for the person who'll use it — their sleeping height, their safest exit height, their preferred sitting position — so operating the bed never depends on memory, dexterity or reading the manual. For someone with arthritis in their hands or a partner with early dementia, that's the detail that decides whether the technology actually gets used.

No showroom trip needed: how buying from Sophie works in WA

Perth's established hi-lo retailers are built around physical locations across the metro area, and if visiting one suits you, they're worth seeing. Our model starts from the opposite assumption: that the person who most needs this bed is the person least able to go shopping for it.

So the process comes to you. First, an unhurried phone consultation on 1300 9 SLEEP — with your carer, your family wherever they live, and your occupational therapist on the line if you want — to work through transfers, heights, funding and configuration. Opening hours are Monday to Friday 9am–5pm AEST with weekend appointments available, which for WA callers means mornings are the easiest time to catch us. Then delivery and professional installation, free, with the remote presets programmed for the person using the bed and a full demonstration for them and their carer at handover. Think of it as the showroom coming to you, permanently: you evaluate the bed against your own doorways, your own carpet and your own morning routine, which is the only test that counts.

Free delivery and installation across Perth and regional WA

Western Australia is where our Australia-wide free delivery and installation promise means the most, because WA distances are where other suppliers' service quietly runs out.

Metro: all Perth suburbs, Fremantle, Joondalup, Rockingham, Mandurah

Every Perth metro suburb gets the full service — delivery, in-bedroom assembly, preset programming, demonstration and packaging removal — at no cost. Fremantle to Midland, Joondalup to Rockingham and down to Mandurah, one visit does the lot.

Regional WA: Bunbury, Busselton, Geraldton, Albany, Kalgoorlie

Regional Western Australians are used to being the asterisk on a delivery offer. Not here. Bunbury, Busselton, Geraldton, Albany, Kalgoorlie and beyond receive exactly the same free delivery and professional installation as a Perth suburb, and the same demonstration at handover. For families spread across this enormous state — a parent in the Great Southern, children in Perth or over east — everything can be arranged on one phone call, and nobody has to drive a trailer six hours to make a care bed happen.

It's worth spelling out what "installed" means, because in regional WA it often doesn't mean much: our team carries the bed to the bedroom, assembles it completely, programs the presets, runs the demonstration for the user and their carer, and leaves with the packaging. Not a pallet at the gate. Not cartons and an instruction sheet. A bed that's ready to sleep in that night.

Quality you can verify: the RMIT-tested mattress and the public record

WA suppliers rightly talk up local manufacturing. We'd simply invite you to weigh a different kind of evidence: independent testing and independent reviews.

Every Sophie HiLo includes our four-layer Australian-made mattress topped with Hygroflex®, tested by RMIT University's School of Engineering — up to 67% better body conformity, 32% better pressure reduction, 27% faster heat release, and less than half the turning force of traditional memory foams. Those aren't brochure adjectives; they're measured results, and they matter most for people spending long hours in bed, where pressure management and easy repositioning protect skin and independence alike. Where risk is higher, ask us or your OT about our air mattresses as an alternative surface.

On the reviews side, we'll keep it to the numbers and let you do the reading: Sleep Sophie is rated 4.8 from 223 reviews on ProductReview.com.au and 4.6 from 90 Google reviews. Put any bed on your Perth shortlist next to that and compare — and read the reviews themselves, since how a company behaves on installation day and during funding paperwork tells you more than a star count ever will. What you won't find on this page is a single hand-picked testimonial, because we think the unedited public record is the fairer test.

“The pre-sales service from Mariat was attentive and well-informed. My split Queen was delivered and installed within a week of ordering and fits nicely inside my existing bed frame (avoiding that 'hospital room' vibe). The bed is very comfortable, easy to make, and infinitely adjustable.”

Funding in Western Australia — NDIS and Support-at-Home

A premium care bed in WA is usually a funded purchase, not a savings decision. Between the NDIS for younger people with disability and Support at Home for older Australians, most of the families we help in Western Australia end up paying far less than the listed price — sometimes nothing. Here's how the two main pathways work, and what we do in each.

For NDIS participants in WA

The Sophie HiLo is NDIS-approved assistive technology. When an occupational therapist assesses a height-adjustable bed as meeting the participant's needs, the purchase can be funded through the plan. We produce the written quote and specifications the application needs, talk directly with the OT and plan manager, and can invoice the provider directly — the participant doesn't front the cost.

For older West Australians on Support-at-Home

For older people, Support at Home through My Aged Care funds assistive technology under the AT-HM scheme, and its high tier covers up to $15,390 — above every HiLo configuration. We handle the provider paperwork end to end, and DVA documentation is available on request.

Working with your OT

Occupational therapists across WA deal with us directly, and we've shaped the service around making their job fast: detailed specifications on request, prompt written quotes formatted for funding applications, and a straight answer on the phone about clinical questions like transfer heights and equipment compatibility. Therapists can call 1300 9 SLEEP without their client present and sort most of it in one conversation.

Discharge-ready delivery

Hospital discharge is where the phone-and-delivery model earns its keep. A recommendation from a discharge planner at Fiona Stanley, Sir Charles Gairdner, Royal Perth or St John of God usually comes with a deadline attached: the day the patient goes home. Tell us that date and we'll aim the whole process at it — bed delivered, installed, adjusted and demonstrated before they're back through the front door. Interstate family members can arrange everything by phone, and we'll coordinate specifications directly with the hospital OT so nothing is lost in translation.

Pricing — transparent and funding-ready

Several Perth competitors list their hi-lo beds as "please call for price". Ours are published, because the honest conversation is easier when the number is on the table: yes, this is a premium bed, and the price includes the RMIT-tested mattress, free WA-wide delivery, free professional installation and the funding legwork — and both configurations sit inside the Support at Home high-tier AT-HM cap of $15,390, with NDIS funding available where the need is assessed. For many families the funded out-of-pocket figure bears little resemblance to the sticker.

Call 1300 9 SLEEP

Phone 1300 9 SLEEP (1300 975 337), Monday to Friday 9am–5pm AEST, or by appointment on weekends. Wherever you are in WA, we'll talk through the care situation, the funding and the right configuration — no showroom, no pressure, no freight surprise at the end. If height adjustment isn't needed, start at adjustable beds in Perth; and for family in other states, the same service runs in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.
