Drive Medical Delta Ultra-Light Full Electric Low Bed for Safer Homecare
The Drive Medical Delta Ultra-Light 1000 Full-Electric Low Bed is a versatile electric hospital bed for home use that gives the user or caregiver powered control of the head section, foot section, and overall bed height. Its low 9.25-inch deck position supports easier transfers and personalized care, while the 23-inch maximum deck height helps caregivers work at a more comfortable level.
Designed as a practical homecare bed, this model combines a strong steel frame, a zinc-coated spring deck, easy-to-use controls, and a 450 lb total weight limit. It is an excellent option for shoppers comparing a full electric hospital bed, hospital adjustable bed, or low hospital bed for home use.

A 9V battery installed in the hand control can lower the head and foot sections up to nine times during a power failure. The battery should be maintained according to the owner's manual.
