    Our Verdict

    The Transfer Master Companion HD is purpose-built for heavier individuals who need medical-grade adjustability at home. With a 600 lb capacity (or 850 lbs in the SHD configuration), reinforced steel frame, and heavy-duty Linak actuators, it provides the same 5-function positioning as the Supernal 5 but with the structural integrity to support bariatric patients safely. Like all Transfer Master beds, it offers residential styling options so it doesn't look like a hospital bed.

    Built for the job

    My patient weighs 480 lbs and this bed doesn't creak, flex, or struggle. The motors are smooth and quiet. The height adjustment is essential for safe transfers. Money well spent for safety.

    Finally a bed that doesn't feel clinical

    At 420 lbs, I was terrified of needing a hospital bed. The Companion HD with the oak headboard looks like a regular bed. My wife sleeps in a matching bed next to mine. Life-changing.
