Description
The EHOB WAFFLE Bariatric Mattress Overlay with Pump is the widest and highest capacity surface in the WAFFLE family, rated for patients up to 800 lb. Bariatric patients are too often placed on standard surfaces that bottom out, and this overlay answers with a true 48 inch width and an 800 lb rating. It suits bariatric beds in hospitals, long term care and home care settings.
- 800 lb Capacity – Rated well beyond the 600 lb standard line, so bariatric patients get real redistribution instead of a surface at its limit.
- 48 in Width – The extra wide format covers bariatric bed frames fully, keeping the patient centered on the supported area.
- Matched Hand Pump Included – The matched hand pump inflates the overlay to proper pressure, so setup is right the first time.
- Venting Holes – Built-in venting holes let air circulate freely through the surface for microclimate management that helps keep skin cool and dry.
WAFFLE Bariatric Mattress Overlay with Pump with 800 lb Capacity
This bariatric overlay spreads patient weight across interconnected air cells sized for the widest frames in the WAFFLE family. The 76 x 48 x 3.5 in surface is rated for patients up to 800 lb, and its low profile format works on standard hospital and home care bed frames. The included M.A.D. Pump is the inflation tool EHOB designs for this surface, so correct setup takes minutes. Surface venting holes keep air circulating for microclimate control, and the antimicrobial material supports cleaner use across repeated patients. For long term care teams, the quiet passive design protects through the night without alarms or settings.
Features and Benefits
Pressure Redistribution
- Expansion Control Design – A proprietary contour design that evenly distributes air cells to help reduce the risk of pressure injuries, so patients rest on a calm and even surface.
- Venting Holes – Built-in venting holes let air circulate freely through the surface for microclimate management that helps keep skin cool and dry.
- Easy-Grip Handwells – Patented handwells along the sides simplify handling and patient transfers, giving caregivers a secure hold during repositioning.
Handling and Safety
- CPR Valve and Straps – A quick-release CPR valve with securing straps keeps the surface anchored to the bed and ready for rapid deflation in an emergency.
- Antimicrobial Material – A proprietary antimicrobial agent is blended into the material itself for patient comfort and safety across repeated use.
- Low Profile Design – A low profile build works with standard bed frames and rail systems, so the surface fits the care setting without extra equipment.

Why Choose the Bariatric Overlay
Standard overlays on bariatric beds leave inches of frame uncovered and ratings exceeded. This overlay was sized and rated for the bariatric bed from the start, so coverage and capacity are never the compromise. The included pump makes the larger surface just as easy to set up.
- Redistribution You Can Measure – EHOB reports a 53% force reduction for this surface family, so pressure is spread instead of concentrated at bony points.
- Static Air Simplicity – No power source or pump cycle is needed once inflated, which keeps the surface quiet and dependable around the clock.
- Caregiver Handling – Handwells and straps make placement, turning and cleaning simpler for the care team on every shift.
- Antimicrobial Build – The antimicrobial agent is blended into the material rather than coated on, so protection is part of the surface itself.
