The SonderCare Aura™ Premium delivers advanced therapeutic positioning including Trendelenburg tilt, Zero Gravity, and Comfort Chair functions—all controlled by four ultra-quiet DC motors and wrapped in elegant espresso woodgrain panels that preserve home aesthetics. With a 500 lb weight capacity, hospital certification to international standards, and comprehensive safety features like ultra-low positioning and central braking, it addresses the complex needs of patients requiring sophisticated medical support.

The ProHeal Full-Electric Bed provides basic head and foot elevation with standard medical appearance, suited for patients with straightforward positioning needs. While it includes electric controls and mattress in the package, it operates with limited backrest elevation, individual caster braking, and narrower 36" sleeping surface without advanced therapeutic functions.

Home-First Design

SonderCare beds are purpose-built for residential environments, featuring elegant espresso woodgrain that preserves dignity and comfort. Every design element addresses the unique needs of home care patients who deserve both advanced functionality and beautiful aesthetics.

Fall Prevention First

Ultra-low positioning brings patients safely closer to the ground, dramatically reducing fall risk and injury potential. This game-changing safety feature enables more independent transfers while providing families with invaluable peace of mind during recovery.

Therapeutic Excellence

Advanced positioning capabilities deliver superior therapeutic benefits—from enhanced circulation to improved respiratory function. Multiple therapeutic positions including Trendelenburg and Zero Gravity address specific medical needs while maintaining patient comfort.

Service Excellence

Experience the confidence of new equipment backed by manufacturer warranty, guaranteed delivery windows, and professional white glove installation. SonderCare's comprehensive support ensures your transition from hospital to home is seamless and stress-free.

Why SonderCare Aura™ Premium 39" Wins

The SonderCare Aura™ Premium 39" Hospital Bed delivers hospital-certified therapeutic positioning that fundamentally changes home care outcomes. With a 71-degree backrest elevation compared to the ProHeal's 45 degrees, patients achieve true upright seating for meals, reading, and social engagement—critical factors in maintaining quality of life during recovery. The full Comfort Chair position with 90-degree elevation and automatic contour seating provides dignified independence that basic medical beds cannot match.

Advanced therapeutic functions including Trendelenburg tilt and Zero Gravity positioning address specific medical conditions that require precise body alignment—from reducing lower extremity swelling to improving respiratory function and managing chronic back pain. These evidence-based positioning options, controlled by four ultra-quiet DC motors, provide clinical benefits that support faster recovery and improved daily comfort. The ProHeal bed's basic head-foot elevation serves fundamental needs but cannot deliver these specialized therapeutic positions.

The 39-inch standard twin sleeping surface offers three additional inches of width compared to the ProHeal's 36-inch platform, providing meaningful comfort for patients spending extended periods in bed. Combined with a 500 lb weight capacity versus 450 lbs, the Aura™ Premium accommodates a broader range of patients with superior stability. Height-adjustable assist rails provide customizable support for transfers and repositioning, while the central brake system allows caregivers to secure all four casters with a single pedal—efficiency and safety features that reduce caregiver strain during daily care routines.

Perhaps most significantly, the espresso luxury woodgrain finish transforms the bedroom environment from clinical to residential. For patients recovering at home—often for weeks or months—this aesthetic consideration profoundly impacts emotional wellbeing and dignity. The hospital certification to international standards ensures that this beautiful design delivers genuine medical-grade safety and functionality, not merely cosmetic appeal. SonderCare's guaranteed delivery windows with rush options (1-3 days available) and professional white glove installation across North America provide the reliability and support that families need during stressful care transitions—service levels that uncertain delivery timelines and limited installation availability cannot provide.

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.

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.
