Customer reviews for Member's Mark Premier Adjustable Base with Pillow Tilt and Massage forReview and Zero Clearance Install Notes (no legs)
Members Mark Premier Split King Adjustable Base. Zero clearance installation. I have a have a King storage bed with a base that is partly wood slats and part finished wood. I need a Split King adjustable base that was zero clearance, or could be used with no legs. The Samsclub.com online description of the Members Mark Premier Split King Adjustable is out of date. It indicates it is not compatible with zero clearance, but the manufacturer has upgraded the design and verified for me that they are shipping a zero clearance model. In the attached photo you can see that the bed fits and works on a storage bed or a sleigh bed design. The split king is shipped as 2 twin XL units. Each with its own remote. My twin XL mattresses were not due to arrive for several days, so I used the included synch cable so either remote adjusts both sides in unison. When the split mattresses are installed, I will remove the synch cable between the frames and the beds will operate independently with their own remote. The shipment was in two boxes. Heavy at around 100lbs each, I was able to get them in the house and up the stairs myself by putting the box on edge and rolling them end over end. When I got the the hardwood floor, placing the box on a blanket and dragging the blanket worked great. Up a flight of stairs by placing the top edge of the box on a stair and using the steps as a lever to rotate the box up (I looked like the flag raising at Iwo Jima lol). The legs and remotes are in bags wire tied to the inside of the frame. Be careful not to cut any wires when cutting the wire ties! Be aware before you position the unit on the bed frame that there are "Left" and "Right" units. To tell them apart look for the USB ports. The USB ports are on the outside edge of the frame. I was afraid that I would need to buy plywood to prevent the rollers from getting caught in the spaces between the slats. But the design anticipated slats and it operates perfectly with no legs. There is a flexible bracket intended to connect the two bed from separating. For zero clearance applications, I would NOT recommend using them. I wasted more time trying to get them to work. They are for floor applications with legs attached. There are velcro straps to wrap around the frame and the slats to secure them. Also included are wood screws of the perfect length to secure the two frames to the wood slats. Position the beds where you want them. Make sure to incline the feet before screwing the fame to the slats. If you have the foot of the unit too close the the bed's foot board it can block the free operation of the adjustable foot of the unit. Once securely screwed in I put the old king mattress on then attached the wire brackets that secure the mattress on the bottom of the unit. Doing this last allowed me to slide the (heavy) king mattress on from the bottom by myself without having to lift over the brackets. Love the bed, even before the split mattresses arrive! The head tilt is awesome. I can see the tv in the sweet spot of my variable lens glasses with dislocating my neck. The remote is simple and intuitive. I can't wait to get the individual twin xl mattresses installed so I don't have to sleep in the same configuration as my wife. (It will be a tough few nights). During several trips to the bathroom I was surprised to see there is an underbed night light. A soft blue color and not bright enough to notice from the bed. I will experiment tonight to see if it is turned on/off by a photo sensor or motion detector - or if it is on all the time. Love the USB ports. But like I mentioned, make sure you don't switch left and right units or you USB ports will wind up in the center of the bed and under the covers. Don't buy this for the vibrating massage feature. It works, but with 12" of mattress on top of the vibrating unit, it doesn't have a chance to be felt in a meaningful way. All in all I am extremely satisfied. Shipping was actually early (promised Saturday and it arrived on Wednesday (4 days early). Installation was easy once I got the boxes upstairs. I would have been done with the two units in an hour (30 minutes each) if I hadn't spent so much time trying to get the connecting brackets to work.

Great product reasonable price
It is AMAZING! The motor that adjusts the positions of the mattress is very smooth and quiet. The massage is a little noisy but it feels wonderful. I have severe back pain and the massage seems to help. No problem putting it together, although it is very heavy. I would recommend 2 people to move it.
Awesome base and Awesome price!
I purchased the Member's Mark Premier adjustable bed base in July of 2020. I have looked at lots and lots of mattresses and adjustable bases and this one is head-and-shoulders above those that are priced at furniture stores three times above the cost of this one and did not have half of it's features. This even will blue tooth to your phone and there is an app. You can still use your bed even if you cannot find your remote. It's is a heavy duty frame, very well made. There are 6 total legs which screw into the underside of the metal frame. Each leg is 12 inches long and comes apart in 3 inch increments for ease of height adjustment. It holds a total combined weight of 750 lbs. There is even a pillow flip at the top to help for watching TV. So smooth and quiet you cannot hear it move. I haven't seen anything anywhere else that came even close to the quality and price as Sam's Club Member's Mark.

Complete new bed assembly !! Absolutely love!!
Love this bed and base. We shopped around for a couple weeks. Sam’s has the best value for the money. Heavy duty, works every which way, massage, all works great. Really like the part that curls up your head to watch TV. Delivered directly to house. Easy to set up. Best SLEEP I’ve had in years. Will be buying another for spare bedroom’s.

The best bed frame at any cost
I happened to be an engineer. When this bed frame came in I examined it very close as the features it has for the price are many. So I looked at it and I thought well it must be a cheap design and construction well to my surprise it is constructed very well the design is excellent and the performance exceeds anything of you before. The head tilt looks like a charm and if you want this feature in the bed frame you're going to pay a lot of money, Sam Clubs provides it on a lower cost high quality adjustable frame. The vibration feature which other frames have that don't work very good it's also very excellent, it works and you can feel the three levels of vibration very well. I could go on but that's enough I just tell you if you're looking for an adjustable bed frame this Members Mark frame cannot be beat.

You get what you pay for
This bed does do all the things the ad says it will, it just does it on a very simple scale. The pillow tilt doesn't tilt the pillow so much as it raises the head of the bed a little more. My mattress is a foam mattress so it's compatible with this bed but when the foot is elevated, the mattress points straight up in the air - it would be helpful if there was a way to secure the mattress to the base so it bends like it's supposed to. The massage feature? Well, it vibrates the mattress so yes, you get a "massage". For the cost of this bed, yes, it does what it's supposed to. I would not pay a penny more than I did.

Really nice adjustable base at great price.
Received shipment earlier than expected. There was some box damage on the corners of the box, but no identifiable damage to the actual bed base. Was quite heavy (had to move to a location in my apartment because the bed base was delivered several days before I got the gel-memory foam mattress. Setup was easy (it will take 2 people - guessing around 200 lbs). Have had several weeks now and can say it has met all my expectations. It's adjustment motors are quiet, nice backlit remote control, and the phone app worked as described. Have owned an L&P adjustable bed before that I paid north of $2200 many years ago, and can say this base surpasses that one (with the exception of the L&P "wallhugging" feature). Would have no problem recommend this base to family/friends. Time will tell if it is truly built to last.

Works well.
Very heavy! Be sure to have 2-3 strong men to set up. Instructions were not very helpful about where to plug power cord into bed. Backup battery power is useless because instructions advise against having batteries installed unless power is out, but outlet is inaccessible once bed is set up. Bed works well and very comfortable.

Owner’s Manual update needed
Remote and bed wouldn’t pair. Owner’s manual did not match online version or the instructions given on the phone. It spoke of pushing the learn button on the motor, with a light indicating pairing. Then pressing the the learn button on the remote within two seconds. There were no buttons on the motor. (The picture on the included instructions and the picture on the online instructions were different.) There were two openings, no buttons or light indicator. The customer service rep I spoke with in the phone, said you needed a paper clip or pin to double click the learn button on the motor (similar to what to have to do to remove a SIM card from a cell phone). A new motor and remote were sent within 3 days and a technician came to my home and installed the new motor along with pairing the remote. The technician had to redo the wiring layout. When installed the same as the old motor, the foot wouldn’t raise, and the Zero G didn’t work. After multiple tries while using the remote, everything worked fine. He mentioned the new motor installed the opposite of the original.

I couldn't be happier!!
Recently I've been searching for an adjustable bed base and quickly compared this base to the other stores with comparable features. I was pleasantly surprised to see this base was several hundred dollars cheaper than both other local & online stores with the exact same features, and Sams club offered to deliver to my house for free!! What's not to love about that!! I caught the Labor Day sale, quickly ordered it online, and got it delivered within 2 weeks to my front door. The down side is it's heavy (100+ lbs) so you'll need help bringing it in the house. This base is high quality and very well built so the cheaper price is not sacrificing quality. I set it up by myself (I'm a 58 year old woman) which was pretty straight forward. I'm currently using this with my 20-year-old mattress (which I will be replacing in the coming year) so this base works with most top mattresses. This base has many features for your head and legs, adjustments to minimize snoring, different message intensity levels with a timer, but my favorite is the zero gravity. I highly recommend this product and would definitely buy it again!
