Adjustable beds have a lot of benefits.

The general idea of the adjustable bed is to help anyone who feels more comfortable in an inclined position (sitting on a recliner with their feet up), rather than lying on a regular flat mattress. Following are a few examples for certain back conditions and how an inclined position in an adjustable bed can sometimes help the the sufferer feel more comfortable.

• Degenerative spondylolisthesis. 
  For sufferers of this desease, sleeping in a reclining position with some support under the knees can help to releif some of the pain in the lower back, which makes it easier to sl

• For people that have degenerative spondylolisthesis, sleeping in a reclining position with some support under their knees can relief some of the pain in their lower back, which make it easier to sleep at nights.

• Osteoarthritis.
  People that have osteoarthritis in the spine, or facet joint arthritis, usually wake up in the morning with a feeling of stiffness and soreness.  If they sleep on an adjustable bed, it may give them better support and therefore it will decrease the irritation by minimizing joint compression.

• Spinal stenosis.
  People that have spinal stenosis  usually feel more comfortable when they are bending forward, and not when standing up straight. So, sleeping on a flat mattress might be less comfortable for these people who suffer from this condition than sleeping in the reclining position, which you can do when sleeping in an adjustable bed.

Moreover, if you have had lower back surgery or any back surgery or suffer from lower back pain, you might feel that an adjustable bed is more comfortable for you than a flat mattress.  The majority of people prefer adjustable beds not only for the mentioned illnesses but also if you suffer from a Hiatus Hernia for example as doctors recommend for this also not to sleep flat, basically in general an adjustable bed is far more comfortable than an ordinary one. 

You may consider buying an adjustable bed if you feel better when sitting in a reclining chair with your knees supported or if you have trouble getting  a good nights rest on a regualr flat mattress.  

If you are not sure what the benefits are for you from an adjustable bed, or you are not sure about buying a new bed, you can consider using  pillows in order to prop up the upper body and placing a pillow beneath the knees, it will be a mini version of an adjustable bed.
