Sidhil INNOV8 iQ
Our verdict
The INNOV8 iQ gives full ward-bed functions and a 190kg user limit, but its 34cm lowest platform is higher than two cheaper beds on this list, the Solite Pro Low and the Bradshaw Bariatric Low.
Best for: complex care at home where a clinical team wants ward functions such as CPR and 13° tilt both ways.
Not for: people at high falls risk (34cm lowest platform), and most homes on size and weight: 115kg base, 146kg with split rails.
Based on the maker's published documents. We have not physically tested this product.

Where the maker’s own documents disagree
We found no disagreement between the INNOV8 iQ product page and its quick user guide; the guide gives only the “maximum safe working load of 40st”, which matches the page. The maker does not publish a full brochure for this bed on its site. One dealer we checked, HCE, says home use needs a pre-delivery inspection at extra cost.
Where these figures come from
We read the maker's documents for this product when we wrote Best Hospital Beds and Profiling Beds for Home UK: 5 Checked Against Their Makers’ Documents, where it is ranked number 5. The guide names each document and explains how the products were ranked.
Specifications are shown as the maker prints them in its own product page, leaflet or manual, read on the date given. Where a price is shown it names the seller and the date. We have not physically tested these products, and no maker or retailer can pay to be listed or placed higher. Not sure what suits you? An occupational therapist or your local wheelchair service can advise.
