bock v2 Electric Home-Care Bed and Mattress
The German-made bock v2 is a four-section electric home-care bed designed to bring the positioning and height-adjustment functions of a care bed into a more residential-looking frame. It allows the back, knee section and overall mattress platform height to be adjusted electrically, making it easier to change between sleeping, sitting and bedside-care positions.
MoveSmart offers the bock v2 in Single and Super Single sizes. The Single is supplied with a Greenline Hyper-Foam mattress, while the wider Super Single is paired with a Posture-Temp mattress. Both sizes have a 200 kg safe working load and a maximum user weight of 165 kg.
Four-Section Electric Profiling
The mattress platform is divided into four sections so the bed can support a range of lying and seated positions. The backrest raises to approximately 70°, while the knee section adjusts to approximately 35°. This allows the upper body and legs to be positioned independently rather than simply raising the entire mattress on one angle.
For everyday use, that flexibility can make activities such as reading, eating, getting comfortable in bed or preparing to stand much easier than with a fixed bed base.
Powered Height Adjustment for Access and Care
The mattress platform adjusts from approximately 37 to 83 cm. Lower settings can make getting into and out of bed easier for some users, while raising the bed can provide a more practical working height for a family member or carer helping at the bedside.
Because both the user and the person providing assistance may have different needs, the ability to change bed height is one of the major advantages of a genuine home-care bed over a standard electric lifestyle bed.
Sprung Slat Base
Rather than using a completely solid platform, the bock v2 has a sprung slat base. The slats provide ventilation beneath the mattress and a degree of flex as the profiling sections move.
The slat system is designed to work with the supplied mattress and the movement of the bed frame, so it is worth treating the bed and mattress as a matched setup rather than choosing the frame in isolation.
Single or Super Single?
The Single bed measures approximately 91.5 cm wide overall and uses an 88 × 196 cm mattress. It is the more compact option where bedroom space is limited.
The Super Single increases the overall width to approximately 122 cm and uses a 110 × 200 cm mattress. The extra width gives the user noticeably more room to turn and reposition while retaining the same electric profiling functions and 200 kg safe working load.
The mattress supplied also changes with size: Single variants include the Greenline Hyper-Foam mattress, while Super Single variants include the Posture-Temp mattress.
Handset Controls and Function Lock
The Ergo Plus hand controller operates the bed's electric functions and includes a lock/disabler. This allows selected electric functions to be disabled when that is appropriate for the user's care setup.
The handset can be positioned within reach and its coiled cable gives freedom to move it without leaving a long loose lead around the bed.
Emergency Lowering and Everyday Safety
The bock v2 includes a battery-backed emergency lowering function so the bed can be lowered if mains power is unavailable. The electrical system is rated to IPX4 for moisture protection.
Four 10 cm castors allow the bed to be repositioned when required, with individual brakes used to secure the bed once it is in place. Approximately 15 cm of clearance beneath the frame also provides useful under-bed access.

Bock v2 Electric Bed User Guide
Who Is the bock v2 Best Suited To?
The bock v2 is a strong option when a normal bed no longer provides enough adjustment but the bedroom still needs to feel like a home rather than an institutional setting. It offers substantial height and profiling control while retaining timber-style endboards and a conventional bedroom footprint.
Choosing between Single and Super Single is mainly about available room, user size and how much space the person needs for comfortable repositioning. If access for carers, hoists or other equipment is part of the setup, consider the whole room layout rather than the mattress width alone.
