Si tatta di quele reti che sono dotate di regolazione manuale della testa e dei piedi
Rete costruita interamente in puro legno di faggio con telaio in multistrato di faggio.

Finalmente potrete leggere e vedere la tv comodamente alzando lo schienale.

Importanti i benefici che ne trae il corpo grazie alla sua azione ortopedica,in legno isola dal dannoso inquinamento elletromagnetico.


Bella e confortevole. E' la risposta alla richiesta di naturalita' dell'uomo. Il particolare listello montato su balancelle in caucciu' consente di ammortizzare al meglio le sollecitazioni creando un supporto anatomico perfetto. Poter regolare testa e piedi la vostra rete vi permettera' di favorire la circolazione delle gambe e di non sforzare in maniera errata la vostra spina dorsale quando per leggere il vostro libro riempite di cuscini lo schienale del letto. Ricordatevi che non c'e' nulla di piu' dannoso che tenere una posizione scorretta per tanto tempo. Fate un regalo alla vostra schiena, e' ora di vivere meglio. Questa rete e' particolarmente indicata per materassi in lattice. La versione matrimoniale si realizza unendo due reti singole mediante appositi ganci. Nella versione matrimoniale è possibile richiedere l'alzata unica, un apposito gancio che permette di alzare contemporaneamente le due reti come se fossero una sola struttura... comodo ed eventualmente removibile.
La rete viene fornita con i piedini di sostegno che alzano 30 cm. da terra.

Yet another advantage of this invention is that it enables customers to pick and choose the features which they desire on a bed, i.e., adjustability or non-adjustability, manual adjustment of the headrest or footrest, or motorized adjustment of the headrest or footrest, attached vibrator for vibrating the headrest or footrest panels, etc., in much the same manner as customers are now accustomed to ordering computers with customized features. It also facilitates ordering a customized bed either from a retail bedding establishment or from a website.
