How much of a task is it to change sheets on a split king? We're both 70 with strength and agility on the wane.

Each twin is on wheels so its a simple matter to roll the individual beds apart at the foot, and we find it easier than the Queen we replaced.We are on carpet so we find that we don't need to lock the casters to keep the beds from moving apart.

Onc the units are setup, the fitted bottom sheet on each of the 2 individual single units are not difficult to change. The secret is hinged attachment brackets. These fasten each individual unit to your headboard at the outer corners. The bed units are on casters. To change sheets simply pull each unit apart from the other at the foot of the bed. They swing open allowing you to get at the center area for cleaning and sheet changing.

You need two people to really rachet it down. Any sag we see if after 45-60 minutes of game play although we have 9-10 year olds on it. Perhaps the big guys are packing more of a punch.

I bought a split-king but have not received it yet. Why do you say it does not work out very well?

When I had the bed, I couldnt reach the matress to change the sheets. I had to climb up on the bed, squeeze between the bed and the ceiling to change them. Mine fell apart. The ladder became unhinged so it could swing by itself. I dont recommend this cheaply-made bed.

It's very easy. Our sheets actually fit better with this mattress vs any other mattress we have had. The bed is a bit heavier than a normal one, once you get one corner if the sheet on it stays put unlike our old mattress that would slip off due to the bed flexing. If you know what I mean? It has happened with every mattress I've owned except this one.

Strangely enough I moved my friend's cal king bed using them. It was really easy and we didn't even use them correctly. The bed will seem really low to the ground unless you properly use the middle hook for our heights. Cover the bed with some junk sheets just in case, but I had no issues. Ez

Hardly, Anna. I'm a 66-yr-old woman who can manage the unit just fine. Although, your arm would likely get a little tired if working above your head for very long.

Very sturdy! Ours is on a king and there is no movement. May have more on a king, but should be relative.

We have had a Sunbeam dual-control, King Size for between 5-10 years. It's not warming as well now so I'm looking to replace it.

I've used 90 lb and 110 lb and both do real well, but only put one sheet at a time in the printer, not a stack.

It's a rough estimate. it's always hard to know when you're at 100%, the idea is to leave a little bit of slack to be made up by the weight of the person sleeping on it. doesn't need much though. it's a pretty solid purchase. definitely worth it.

Personally I would buy two twin xl matts.The split king matt by sleep number is connected at the feet area so you and your partners feet will have to be the same

Just did this - moved the whole unit from downstairs to upstairs yesterday. It's a two-person job but not difficult. The mattresses aren't heavy. The mechanism is heavier but very doable with two people.

I am 70 yrs old. I have been ill.. so maybe I am just weak. However, its still pretty heavy.

No. Consider stronger support for top bunk in future. Though my wild child has not broken it yet :)

No my wife 63 yes old did it by her self. One just has to work the stay downs in a x pattern one at at a time.
