Troubleshooting

Mattress not fully expanding after 72 hours

Ensure the mattress is laid flat on a level surface in a room with a stable temperature. Extreme cold can slow expansion. If it remains significantly under the stated thickness, contact customer support.

Uneven expansion or lumps

Gently press down on the uneven areas to help redistribute the foam. Allow additional time for expansion. If lumps persist, check for any damage during transit or contact support.

Unpleasant initial odor

A slight 'new foam' smell is normal and should dissipate within 24-48 hours after unpacking and airing the room. Ensure good ventilation during the expansion period.

Mattress feels too firm

This mattress is designed for firm support. If it feels too firm, consider using a mattress topper for added cushioning. Allow time for adjustment as your body gets used to the firmer surface.
