vs Joerns WeCare Full-Electric Bed

Discover why home care professionals choose SonderCare’s hospital-certified bed with advanced therapeutic positioning, elegant residential design, and comprehensive safety features over standard medical equipment.

Rated 4.9/5 by Home Care Professionals

When transitioning from hospital to home care, choosing the right medical bed can significantly impact patient safety, comfort, and recovery outcomes. The SonderCare Aura™ Premium 39″ Hospital Bed and Joerns WeCare Full-Electric Bed both offer electric positioning and ultra-low height capabilities, but they serve distinctly different needs in the home healthcare environment.

The SonderCare Aura™ Premium represents a hospital-certified bed purpose-built for residential environments, featuring elegant espresso woodgrain panels, advanced therapeutic positioning including Trendelenburg and Zero Gravity, and comprehensive comfort features like the 90-degree Comfort Chair position. With a 500 lb weight capacity, four ultra-quiet DC motors, and a central brake system, it delivers premium functionality while maintaining the dignified aesthetics patients deserve in their homes.

The Joerns WeCare offers basic electric positioning at a lower price point ($1,300-$1,800), with a narrower 35″ sleeping surface and standard medical appearance. While it provides essential height adjustment and backrest positioning, it does not include advanced therapeutic features, requires individual caster locking, and has a 450 lb weight capacity. This comparison examines how these fundamental differences impact patient outcomes, caregiver experience, and long-term value in home healthcare settings.

Why SonderCare Aura™ Premium 39″ Delivers Superior Value

The SonderCare Aura™ Premium 39″ Hospital Bed represents a comprehensive therapeutic solution that extends far beyond basic electric positioning. With a standard 39″ sleeping surface compared to the WeCare’s narrower 35″ width, patients enjoy significantly enhanced comfort and freedom of movement. The hospital-certified design features elegant espresso woodgrain panels that transform the bedroom into a dignified healing environment rather than a clinical space, addressing the psychological needs of patients recovering at home.

Advanced therapeutic positioning capabilities set the Aura™ Premium apart with features the WeCare does not include. The full Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg tilt functions provide critical therapeutic benefits for circulation, respiratory conditions, and specific medical protocols. The 90-degree Comfort Chair position enables patients to sit upright for meals, reading, and social interaction—promoting independence and quality of life. The Zero Gravity position addresses swelling and back pain through optimal weight distribution, while the 71-degree backrest angle provides superior positioning flexibility compared to the WeCare’s unspecified angle.

Practical advantages enhance daily care delivery significantly. The central brake pedal locks all four casters simultaneously, saving caregivers time and reducing physical strain compared to individually locking each caster on the WeCare. The 500 lb weight capacity accommodates a broader patient population than the WeCare’s 450 lb limit. Four ultra-quiet DC motors ensure smooth, silent operation that won’t disturb rest or household activities. Two fully height-adjustable assist rails are included with the Aura™ Premium, while the WeCare requires purchasing rails separately—adding to total cost.

Service and support advantages provide peace of mind throughout the care journey. SonderCare offers guaranteed delivery windows with standard 10-21 day delivery and expedited rush options (1-3 days or 4-9 days) for urgent needs, while the WeCare typically involves long lead times without guaranteed delivery or rush options. Professional white glove installation is available across North America for the Aura™ Premium, ensuring proper setup and safety certification, whereas the WeCare offers installation only in some areas. These service differentiators prove critical when transitioning patients from hospital to home care on tight timelines.

I purchased a Sondercare bed back in 2021, I called last month to order a replacement mattress. I called twice left messages both times, once with an actual live person. I never received a return callback so I left a bad review today. I guess someone watches their reviews of google, they just called & gave me a deal on a new mattress and said they would follow up on what happened with their poor response. I don’t expect perfection, just “best efforts” so I’m satisfied and revising my review.

I lucked into SonderCare completey at random with an internet search after giving up on insurance coming through. Their salesperson, Hailey, was extremely thorough in her explanation of the bed models and features, and very helpful in helping me make my selection. They also arranged for Rocky Mountain Movers to deliver the bed with white glove service which they did beautifully. They actually built the bed next to his existing rickety bed and then we just moved him over. Absolutely seamless all the way around. I am a stickler for details, and SonderCare didn't miss a single detail. I couldn't be happier knowing that my husband is in a much better bed and far more comfortable than he has been in months. I would recommend this company to anyone!

What sets SonderCare apart is their service. They’re responsive, easy to work with, and genuinely committed to getting things right for both the user and the installer. That alignment between who they are as people and how they operate as a company is rare—and it’s why I continue to trust them. I wholeheartedly recommend SonderCare to anyone looking for reliable, well-designed products backed by a team that truly cares.

I recently purchased a SonderCare bed for my personal use. As a cancer patient and survivor, comfort and accessibility are incredibly important to me. The bed arrived within a couple of days, and the delivery team went above and beyond. They decided the front entrance would be easier than the back door, and without hesitation, they shoveled a path to make the delivery possible. The setup was quick, and I received a clear demonstration of all the controls. After a few nights of sleep, I can honestly say the bed has exceeded my expectations. The different settings have made a noticeable difference in how my whole body feels, and getting in and out of bed is now so much easier. There was a small issue with my credit card, but it was resolved within a couple of days thanks to the help of Victoria and Ben. Their support was excellent. I would recommend this bed to anyone experiencing pain or discomfort from a regular bed. Great product, great service, and wonderful people at SonderCare. Thank you, William — Bancroft, Ontario

What a great company to deal with! And the sales rep 'Victoria,' was so much more—a knowledgeable, patient guide through the product options in order to match them to our particular needs! I came away with just what we were looking for without experiencing any push or pressure to purchase. Thank you, SonderCare and thank you, Victoria!

We needed a bed for my Father in Law quite quickly, on a Friday afternoon. We called SonderCare and immediately had our bed ordered, delivery same afternoon. Seyar made the delivery and we couldn't have been more pleased with his service. It was an extremely hot day but Seyar did the delivery and set up with speed, efficiency and very polite attention to detail. I would highly recommend SonderCare and most definitely...Seyar!

Michele and the other staff at Sonder Care have been exceptional. I was given two weeks to convert my home into ADA compliant, and somehow I had to find a bed! I came across Sonder Care and was treated with courtesy beyond all expectations. Not only did Michele get me a bed within my time frame, but she upgraded the mattress when the one I ordered was not available, and she dealt with the misery of a credit card snafu that would have impacted delivery. I am proud to say that the product is well worth every penny spent, and the lovely neighbors to the North excel at customer service! Thank you one and all for your kindness and professionalism. It was a bright spot during a difficult time.

The SonderCare team is exceptional. Starting with smooth organization and flawless delivery by Seyar. The bed is exceptional and 100X more comfortable than the one in the hospital. Huge thanks to the SonderCare team for looking after our most critical family members and patients! It’s greatly appreciated.

I just purchased a bed from Sayar at Sondercare for my mother. It is perfect and works super well. The entire experience was exceptional in a very difficult and stressful time. Seyar took care of everything, delivered and set up the bed with a smile. He treated us with care and compassion. I cannot thank him enough. I highly recommend Sonder Care. Deirdre O'Brien

After much research, I decided to purchase a SonderCare hospital bed for my husband; however, ordering a product of this cost online without a person to back this product did not appeal to me. Fortunately, I found Walt and AbleMed in Savannah, Ga. Walt immediately connected me to Zoey, who is amazing. She is knowledgeable and professional. Her level of customer service is second to none, answering all pre-purchase questions and following up on all details post purchase. Walt’s white glove delivery service far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend SonderCare, as it is a premium hospital bed that meets and exceeds my needs; however, the best part of my SonderCare purchase is the customer service of Walt and Zoey.

Had amazing service today, I had some issues with my loaner bed not having the safety precautions from another service provider. I met Seyar, and he was able to help me out with a same day rental. Without his help, I would have had to cancel my transport reservation for my Mom, and she would have had to have a longer hospital stay. I am so grateful and thankful he was able to help me out when I was so stressed. He saved the day! Would highly recommend contacting him to help you.
