I want to get this i King, but I am concerned about moving it as we are planning on buying a house soon. Is it easy to move (down stairway) fit?

Well the mattress came rolled up in a box and I cut it out of the rolled position.... I am sure you can move it around with ease but mine was a full size

It's not much different than a normal spring mattress in that respect. I think it might be a little heavier. It is very flexible to get around corners and stairs. . So some advantage there.

It's not easy...it's kind of awkward...but it's doable. 2 adult ladies were able to maneuver it down a hallway (not stairs) but we were able to slide it a little on carpet.

I wanted to add that you should base your purchase on the firmness you desire...it is VERY firm for a foam mattress. We returned ours.

It's very light, so moving it is easy--however, pushing it away is more difficult. it's rigid once you get it in place (all dials tightened) so you'll have to pick it up to move it.

difficult can be a subjective term. my wife can have difficulty folding it up by herself and it can be a little awkward when folded up to move. I can fold and move by myself but it sure is easier to move it from room to room with two people. I like to leave it open and out most of the time. i love this item, but you can only hang a few minutes at a time, it seems it could be too much trouble if i had to fold and move after every use.. We put velcro felt around the bottom rail leg to protect the hardwood floor and allow it to slide around as needed.

No not at all, I love it. It's so comfortable and easy to move, and fits into the smallest of spaces.

I personally do not have a ton of room to move it in or out. I find myself standing on it when not walking. It is not that difficult to move or too heavy

Once assembled, I moved it by myself down a flight of stairs, so it's fairly easy to move when you have to. It's definitely easier with two people, though, and I don't move it now that I've gotten it leveled. Not sure that casters would work well, as the "feet" are pretty small.

As long as you move into a residence where the height is the same, you can easily remove and reinstall. I have done it twice and it has held up perfect.

Its easy to move, but no way should you wait until Christmas Eve to assemble.........find a hiding place and get started!

Yes, we also moved a Queen size box spring and mattress. Super heavy. We are retired and don't have the strength we once had. They are wonderful. I also bought the 3" brown slides to keep under my sofa and my heavy wooden kitchen table. Now I can move my sofa and my kitchen table to clean my floors. The large slides are nice to have. We don't need them that often, but when we do want to move something heavy, we have them. I hope this helps you to decide.

I carried it up a flight of stairs (I'm a great grandmother) rather pushed and pulled it; it is awkward because of its size but not heavy and fits on my antique full bed. I unpacked it before I carried itupstairs but left the plastic cover on while moving it upstairs. It was an easy move; not heavy.

It's quite easy to move. It does have a bit of weight to it but that helps to cover on the furniture without being flimsy and blowing off. It withstood our ridiculous Massachusetts snowfall and high winds with no problems.

I haven't brought this upstairs myself, but yes it would be easy to take it upstairs that way. It'd only be a few inches wide. However, I think it'd be just as easy to carry it unfolded, unless it's too wide for your doors/stairwell. I use mine mainly for dirty rugs, so while it doesn't get full, the rugs are heavy. I am 5'9, and I don't lean over much. However, I only push it around to mop under it. . .

I purchased the Cal King & was able to move and set up all on my own. However, I didn't have to travel up stairs... Had there been stairs, it probably would have taken two people to move from point A to B.

We lift and move ours all the time, no problem. But it's kind of an awkward shape to carry up & down a long staircase. Maybe if you did it all the time you'd get used to it - I don't know.

Yes. We have a two-story house, and my wife and I were even able to carry the main portion of the unit with the flywheel up a staircase with a 45-degree turn using moving straps, and she's not that big. :)We've also wheeled the unit between rooms on the second floor of our home without having to take it apart. It is pretty long, but you grab it from the back and it tilts up on wheels under the front/flywheel area at which point it can be pivoted and steered around. Our hallways are pretty tight but we were still able to move it around easily. Even with the wheels, it is quite heavy when assembled so I would recommend the wheeling-around being a two-person job.

Hi, this item comes in two boxes and is ready-to-assemble. In these circumtsances, I would say that you should be able to carry it upstairs with tight turns.

We put ours in our living room because it's command central:) It's not too heavy to occasionally move but I would not transport up and down stairs or from room to room often.
