Why is it better not to buy used medical beds for home use?

Purchasing a medical bed for home care for a person with a disability or a person during rehabilitation after injuries, operations or serious illnesses - this is a responsible choice, on which the comfort and safety of the person who will use this medical bed depends. 

Of course, the price of medical beds is not small, it is a significant part of the family budget, so often the family seeks to find other options and buy a cheap medical bed. How to save on such a rehabilitation tool? Of course, the first idea that comes to mind is to start looking for a used bed for bedridden patients.

Although used medical beds may seem like a profitable alternative to new ones, in reality they hide a number of risks and disadvantages. Here are the main reasons why it is better to choose a new medical bed:

1. Lack of warranty for used medical beds. Unlike new models that have warranty service, used beds are often sold without any warranty. In the event of a breakdown, you will have to look for spare parts yourself and pay for repairs.
2. Hidden defects or malfunctioning parts. Used beds may have worn mechanisms that will stop working correctly over time. For example, faulty electric drives, hydraulic systems or brakes can create inconvenience or even threaten the patient's safety.
3. Non-compliance with modern quality standards. Medical equipment is constantly being improved, and old models may not meet modern standards of comfort and safety. New beds have improved adjustment systems, orthopedic mattresses, anti-bedsore mattresses and auxiliary functions that greatly facilitate care.
4. Individual user needs.Each person has unique needs regarding bed height, angle of inclination, mattress firmness, etc. A new bed can be selected taking into account specific requirements, while a used one does not always allow such flexibility.
