Yawnder Reviews · Product information checked October 2026
Quick verdict
The Awara Adjustable Base is worth considering if you want independent head and foot lift, presets and massage, particularly if you are already shopping for an Awara mattress. Compare the complete bundle price with buying a base separately: a bundle is not automatically the least expensive option. Awara currently lists a 60-night furniture trial and a two-year limited furniture warranty for eligible purchases.
How we evaluated it: This is a research-based review of the manufacturer’s specifications and policies, not a hands-on test of this exact base. We do not have a verified Yawnder test score for it.

Who should consider it
Good fit for: Someone who reads or watches television in bed, wants to raise their head or feet, and values a remote with position presets. A split king can suit partners who want independent positions when paired with two Twin XL mattresses.
Compare alternatives if: You want a specific feature such as wall-hugging movement, separate pillow tilt or detailed sleep tracking. Confirm the exact model and feature list before ordering rather than assuming all adjustable bases offer the same functions.
Features and everyday use
Head and foot lift: Separate controls let you choose a position for reading, watching TV or resting. Check the mattress maker’s instructions to ensure your mattress can bend safely; a rigid foundation or a mattress not approved for adjustable bases may not work.
Presets and controls: Awara lists zero-gravity, anti-snore and TV recline presets, programmable memory, a wireless remote and app control. A preset is a convenience, not a medical treatment. If snoring is persistent or sleep apnea is suspected, speak with a healthcare professional rather than relying on a bed setting.
Massage and USB: The company describes a vibration massage with three intensities and four USB ports. Massage strength, sound and placement are personal preferences; we have not measured this model’s noise or tested its massage performance.
Height and capacity: Awara lists four leg height configurations and an 850-pound capacity. Confirm the weight limit and dimensions for the exact size and count the weight of the mattress and occupants when planning your setup.
Pros and limitations
Potential advantages
- Independent head and foot movement with useful presets.
- Massage and charging ports are included in the listed feature set.
- Adjustable leg height and a split-king configuration offer setup choices.
Trade-offs
- A two-year limited furniture warranty is shorter than some competitors’ advertised coverage; compare what each warranty actually covers.
- Heavy bases can be awkward to move, particularly in larger sizes. Plan for help during setup.
- Prices and bundle promotions change, and some retailers have different return rules.
- We have not independently tested long-term reliability, motor noise or massage feel.
Bundle or buy separately?
Price the same mattress and base both ways, including delivery, setup, taxes and any bundle-only discounts. Then compare the return rules for each item: a mattress trial does not necessarily apply to the base. Ask whether a bundle return requires both products to be returned and how any discount is allocated.
For alternatives, compare the exact configuration and current terms for an adjustable base such as Tempur-Ergo, Reverie or Malouf. Features vary within those brands, so check leg height, weight limit, presets, remote, wall clearance and warranty rather than relying on a brand-wide comparison.
Compatibility, setup and delivery
Awara says the base can work inside a compatible bed frame or as a standalone setup. Measure the inside of your existing frame, check for obstructing slats or center supports, and confirm clearance and headboard bracket requirements with the seller before ordering. Do not assume an existing frame or headboard is compatible.
Awara describes assembly as requiring no tools. Check the delivery and assembly options at checkout and plan for at least two people to handle a large base safely. For a split king, check that the two Twin XL mattresses and bases are the intended sizes and that independent controls are included in the selected configuration.
Trial, returns and warranty
Awara’s product page advertises a 60-night home trial for the base. Its furniture policy says eligible furniture bought directly or from certain authorized retailers can be returned within 60 nights of delivery, subject to conditions including like-new condition. Read the seller’s terms and retain the purchase documents.
Awara’s current furniture policy provides a two-year limited warranty for applicable purchases, effective August 11, 2026. It covers qualifying defects rather than ordinary wear or a change of preference. For an earlier purchase, Awara says to contact support about the applicable warranty. Mattress and furniture warranties are separate, including in bundles.
