Is it stable when used with a king size bed?

The BedCane will work with your king size bed no problem! Depending on the thickness of your mattress you can adjust the cane to be higher or lower as well. If you have any other questions feel free to give us a call here at Stander. Call 1-800-506-9901 with any questions or comments you might have.

Yes, it's stable. I don't know if the kind of mattress makes a difference; ours is a TempurPedic. The cane was recommended to us by an occupational therapist and it performed very well. My husband is the one who was ill; he would not have been able to get out of bed without it. If it's being purchased for long-term use (ours was in use for about 3 months), you may have to tighten the connection of the cane to the board after a period of time. We did not have to, but I think we might have after another month.

Oh yes. Even though the strap does not fit the king bed as shown in the directions, I looped the strap through an opening of the headboard tightly enough that the board fits securely. I have not had a problem with the board working loose. There is a small amount of "play" with the handle because of the fittings, but not a dangerous amount nor enough that the patient would feel as if they are falling. I like the way the handle looks with the way it rises beside the mattress. I would purchase this again.

It was used by my friend on a Queen size but I don't think the size of bed would matter. Not sure.

Depends on the mattress and box spring but mine was not stable where the cane was attached to the base so I returned it. My husband had Parkinsons and the style of the bed cane would have made it even harder for him to get in and out of bed.

Don't see why not!...Works well with a Queen, however, a good quality mattress helps. I'd also point out to ensure that you secure the unit with the black strap provided.

I don't think it'd very stable on your bed. You'd be better off going with one of those round pillow cat beds.

No... It would not be stable... You need the taller version if you want taller.

Yes! This is very stable and sturdy! I keep mine atop a dresser and move it to my vanity as needed. I love it!

I have only used it in a twin bed, but the rails seem high enough that if your king size bed has a really thick mattress it should work.

Hi Ms. Levine,1) Mostly Yes. You would need to align it after some time especially if you are using the features provided by bed.2) Difficult to stay in middle.3) I didn't try anything. But if you use some kind of holder for the bed's rolling feet then it should be fine.Hope this helps.Regards,Sagar

In my opinion it is quite stable. If you hang a several heavy jackets on one side and not the other it will tip, but otherwise it does not.

It is really heavy so as long as it is placed on a stable hard surface it should be quite stable. I am really pleased with it and ours does not seem tippy at all.

It will stabilize it, but you may have to adjust the height of the frame to take advantage of the mattress weight.

Yes it works fine on a king size bed; the straps are long enough; very user friendly!

As long as it is sturdy, it should work. *Just MAKE SURE it is level and supported in the middle.* Our foundation on our king size bed did not have any supports in the middle, just the sides. After a week, it was sagging and my back was killing me. We put some supporting blocks on the middle beam and it's been fine since. The mattress is much heavier than you might think.

It is very stable. It is very sleek and well made. I have really been happy with this purchase.

No, I don't think the bed would be stable--even with no jumping--unless the bed legs fit down into the recessed part of the risers. In fact, I wouldn't advise jumping even if the risers fit properly. We have five risers on the five legs of our sofa. It has toppled off the risers a few times when teenaged grandchildren plopped down too hard on it!

This headboard will attach to a queen or king frame. We attached to king size metal frame. I could not see stability with wooden frame.

The base has a center support that spans full length of bed. I would say yes!

Definitely. The desk is very heavy and sturdy, and it helps stabilize the bed. Without it the bed would be unusably wobbly.

Fairly level, yes, using as a king could be awkward though, depending on mattress just because underpinnings are so different.
