The new top of the line Leggett & Platt Prodigy is here! They call it the “Prodigy 2.0 Plus”. It is exactly like the Prodigy 2.0, which was first introduced about 18 months ago, with one exception. The new Plus has a lumbar in place of the pillow option.
On the remote control for the Prodigy 2.0, there is a Pillow option. Now with the new Prodigy 2.0 Plus that option is replaced with a Lumbar option.
This is great option in my opinion! When you are in the raised position (head high position), your upper body weight gets concentrated to your lower back. This can cause pain for many people. With the lumbar option, you can now raise the lower back portion of your mattress to help alleviate that problem.
I personally own the Prodigy 2.0 with the pillow option. I do not find myself using the pillow option very often. While I love my adjustable base, the pillow option does not do much for me. I do have to constantly adjust my head position due to the fact that my lower back starts to hurt.
Therefore I think that this new lumbar feature is a fantastic option.
I have the new Prodigy 2.0 Plus set up on my showroom floor, which I have been trying out. It really seems to work good for me and I love this lumbar feature.
I think that Leggett and Platt got it right this time! Some people might still opt for the pillow option, especially if they have neck issues. Either way, now there are two great options that are added to the Leggett and Platt adjustable base beds.
