Troubleshooting

Mattress not fully expanding

Ensure the mattress has had adequate time (up to 48 hours) to decompress. Check that it's placed on a flat surface and that all packaging has been removed. Extreme cold temperatures can slow expansion.

Unpleasant odor after unboxing

This is normal for vacuum-packed mattresses and is often referred to as 'off-gassing'. Ensure the room is well-ventilated and allow the mattress to air out for a few days. The smell should dissipate completely.

Uneven feel or sagging

Rotate the mattress head-to-toe regularly (every 3-6 months) to promote even wear. If the mattress is new, allow more time for the materials to settle. If sagging persists after a settling-in period, contact customer support.

Fitted sheets don't fit well

The mattress is 18cm deep. Use fitted sheets that are specifically designed for this depth or have a pocket depth of at least 20-25cm to ensure a secure fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers a blend of memory foam comfort and spring support.
  • Designed to reduce pressure points for improved sleep quality.
  • Features a cool-touch cover for temperature regulation.
  • Manufactured in the UK and meets safety standards.
  • Arrives vacuum-packed for convenient delivery and setup.
  • Affordable option for a hybrid mattress.

Cons

  • The 18cm depth might not be compatible with all existing deep-fitted sheets.
  • Open coil springs may offer less motion isolation compared to pocket springs.
  • May require a period of off-gassing after unboxing due to vacuum packing.
  • Ideal for adults, children, and guest rooms, but may not suit those requiring very firm or specialized orthopedic support.
  • Cooling properties of the cover may vary based on individual body temperature and room conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Carefully remove the mattress from its packaging. It is recommended to do this on the bed frame itself to avoid unnecessary lifting.
  2. Unroll and allow the mattress to expand fully. This process can take several hours, and the mattress may take up to 24-48 hours to reach its full shape and thickness.
  3. Air out the mattress in a well-ventilated room for the first few days to allow any initial odors from the vacuum packing to dissipate.

Compatibility:

  • This mattress is designed for standard bed frames, including slatted bases (ensure slats are no more than 7-8cm apart), divan bases, and bed frames with a solid base.
  • Ensure your fitted sheets are compatible with an 18cm mattress depth. Deeper sheets (25cm+) are generally recommended to ensure a snug fit.

Care:

  • Rotation: For even wear, rotate the mattress head-to-toe and flip it (if designed for flipping) every 3-6 months.
  • Cleaning: Spot clean any spills immediately with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the mattress. Ensure the cleaned area is thoroughly dry before making the bed.
  • Protection: Use a mattress protector to guard against spills, stains, and allergens, which will also help extend the life of the mattress.
