Alternating Pressure Mattress by Vive - Includes Electric Pump & Mattress Pad - Inflatable Bed Pad for Pressure Ulcer and Pressure Sore Treatment - Fits Standard Hospital Beds

I purchased this alternating pressure pad for my mother, who lives in Cuba. I chose it to help improve her comfort and prevent pressure sores. The product arrived well packaged and looks well made. Setup was easy, and everything seems to be working as expected so far. Once my mother starts using it regularly, I will come back to update this review with long-term results. Overall, I’m satisfied with the purchase and hopeful it will make a positive difference for her care.

I bought this for my husband when he came out of hospital having broken his pelvis in multiple places - it was easy to assemble although the pipes are quite stiff to get on , but they stay on - it’s a very large single size, nice and long and tucks in at foot if the bed - I didn’t want to get a hospital bed as he’s tall - it’s been going 24 hours a day for several weeks - the little engine is very quiet and sits under the bed - the switch has a noticeable green light so you can see if it’s on or off from a distance - I really recommend this - forget the more expensive ones ! I don’t know about long term but it’s certainly ideal for post surgery - thank you

Un articulo necesario y cómodo para las personas que se encuentran postradas, muy recomendable para que no se lastimen mas estar tanto tiempo acostados

The mattress arrived very quickly, but I could not use it as it was wired for American 120 volt instead of 240 volt Australian- my fault for not checking first. Returning it was managed fairly.

Bought for an older relative after they had suffered a broken hip and were having to spend more time in bed. Box on ours came in a pretty poor state, but mattress and pump inside appeared unused. We tried it out at home before taking it abroad to our relative. The mattress is suprisingly long (it covered the length of our 200cm bed easily). Using it the first time you just need to make sure that you manually straighten out any kinks or it won't fill. Once that's done, it fills and works well. A word of warning - it's nigh on impossible to get all the air out if you want to pack it up again. Pump reasonably quiet. Our relative found it did give relief and they were definitely more comfortable. They were starting to get some sore areas and this seemed to halt that. Coincidentally, we also shopped for a seat cushion around the same time and ended up (not through planning) with one from Vive also. That was also excellent and helped our relative a lot.
