    YOU SAVED US!!! We are staying at an apartment rental and our son pulled in the handle of the bed and we couldn't for the life of us close it and it is late at night. Thank you for this video and giving us all a good night's sleep!

    AMAZING!!!! We literally thought our pistons were totally fused as they would not move. We thought we’d never have a working bed! The supplier suggested we make a video to prove that they weren’t working. We were going to make the video today, so last night, I thought I’d take a last chance to see if there was anyway to fix them…found your video… it worked!! Thank you so much! I don’t think you realise how amazingly helpful it is!

    i don't normally say anything on you tube i just watch it, but i had to say some thing, well i was just about to get on phone to bensons for beds to tell them there gas pistons dont work until i came across this, i thought it would not work as these were really stuck i even used a rubber hammer and that did not work, so i thought ill give it a go so today before i rang the bed company i put them on and i new it would not work, so i did what the man was doing on here, and i just can't believe it, it worked i just dont no how that is after brute force to get it to work, and after using a rubber hammer, how this mans method work its crazy, so thank you for this, other wise the bed company would have got a phone call from me, and thank you you tube for this being on here..

    Best video so far but unfortunately mine still won't budge. The bed's from Wayfair here in the UK, and these are my second set of pistons/lifts. The instructions have them the other way round, which seems contrary to all instructions out there, so yeah - who knows. Left is raised with the mattress on to see if maybe it'll settle and prime with a bit of time, but not optimistic.

    Some lock if twisted in the closed position. Just untwist if it works. If not it might need replacing. Hardware stores have them and I'm sure it could be found online if you measure the size.
