The first TWO MONTHS:
 |
Flip it every time you change your
sheets. After that, every three months is sufficient to keep the
wear pattern even.
|
|
|
|
How should I flip my mattress?
|
Use your mattress label as a reference
point. All but a few of our mattress have a corner label.
|
|
A good place to start is to have the
corner label in the right hand corner.
|
|
When flipping, place the mattress so that
the corner is on the opposite side of where it was to start.
|
|
Each subsequent flip, just move the label
to a different corner every time you flip your mattress.
|
|
If you have a center label on our
mattress, just put the label in a different position, or you could
attach a piece of fabric with a safety pin as a reference point.
|
|
And finally: Do NOT allow your
children (or the kid in you) to use your mattress as a trampoline!
Such actions will void your warranty.
|
|
|
|
Preventing stains . . .
|
Use a good, thick mattress pad
underneath your sheets. |
|
If it does get soiled, take the
sheets off immediately. Quick action should prevent liquids
from coming through to the mattress itself.
|
|
|
|
How do I get stains out of my
mattress?
|
A good thing to use, for example, is
anything similar to the Bissell Little Green Machine. Do not
let it get completely soaked through. |
|
We highly recommend "Spot
Shot" to get it out. When used with the Little Green, it
gets it right out, leaving the surface slightly damp. Those
two make a great cleaning combination. |
|
On a sunny day, take the mattress out
and let it air dry in the sun.
|
|
|
|
What can I do about odors?
|
On a good, sunny day, take your
mattress outside and spray it with Febreze®
(or a similar product). Let it air out for several hours and
the sun will do its share.

Our recommendations:
| PLEASE use sheets! If your sheets keep
slipping off the bed, use sheet keepers. They can be
found at nearly any retail store, such as Wal-Mart, Target,
etc. |
| Use a mattress pad under the sheets. It
helps prolong the life of the mattress, not to mention it feels
pretty good when you lay down. |
|
|
NO SMOKING in
bed! Please remember this for your safety as well as your family's!

| Why
should I flip my mattress?
This is necessary to make sure all the
new materials in your mattress wear evenly.
Just think of it as "breaking in"
your mattress. |
