Product Details


The Blanket Cradle is a simple yet highly effective aid designed to keep bedclothes raised above the body, helping to relieve pressure and improve comfort while resting.

Fitting neatly between the mattress and bed base, the cradle creates a raised bridge that supports bedding away from the legs or feet, preventing irritation, discomfort, and overheating. This makes it particularly beneficial for individuals with ulcers, burns, or sensitive skin conditions, or anyone who finds the weight of bedclothes restrictive.

Constructed from durable tubular steel, the frame is coated with a hard-wearing, peel-resistant, and anti-corrosive thermoplastic finish for long-lasting use. The sturdy design provides reliable support for bedding while remaining lightweight and easy to reposition.

Proudly made in Leicestershire, Great Britain, this blanket cradle combines practicality and durability with comfort-enhancing benefits, making it a popular choice for home and care environments alike.

    Although the blanket cradle arrived with some damage to it which was reported to seller, it did not impair its use. I have now had several good nights sleep having had the weight of my duvet taken off my painful feet.
