There is provided a bed (10) with air adjustable elevation components having a generally rectangular foundation, a mattress (14) having a plurality of sections, and an air chamber under each section of the mattress that is to be raised. The contour and shape of the mattress is controlled by inflating and deflating the each air chamber (30, 32) to elevate and incline the section of the mattress. The mattress is formed of connecting sections including a back section (16), a buttock section (18) adjacent the back section. Adjacent the buttock section (18) is an upper leg section (20) and adjacent upper leg section (20) is lower leg section (22). The sides of upper leg section and adjacent upper leg section is lower leg section. The sides of upper leg section and lower leg section abutting each other are formed at an angle such that when the leg sections of the mattress (14) are in a non-elevated position a V-shaped cut out area (24) is formed between the two sections. The air chambers are connected to a pump (36) and a controller (46) is provided to easily inflate and deflated the chambers, together or separately, with compressed air.
