Getting your first memory foam mattress is an exciting time. For many consumers it represents their first bed on which they will get a great night’s sleep. There are numerous benefits to owning a memory foam mattress, from fewer aches and pains in the morning to it assisting with more serious conditions such as sleep apnea and other sleep disturbances. In order to ensure that you keep your mattress in excellent condition for as long as possible, it’s important that you take care of it properly. Here are a few tips on how to care for your memory foam mattress in Gulfport, MS
Let It Sit For A While Before use
When it first arrives, it will likely be packed in a smaller box or bag. Some manufacturers vacuum seal their mattresses in order to keep them in good condition throughout transport. They will need time to expand to their full height before they can be used. It’s hard not to be impatient when your new mattress arrives, but resist the temptation to jump on it as soon as you can. Let it sit for a while before use. Even if it seems to be at its proper height and width, give it a few more hours to sit and reach its full size before putting the sheets on.
Rotate It On A Regular Basis
You should never, under any circumstances, flip the memory foam mattress. This is because of the way it is constructed; flipping it would either destroy the mattress, at worst, or ruin your sleep, at best. While you should never flip the mattress, it is a good idea to regularly rotate it in order to ensure that dents and impressions aren’t made.
Keeping It Clean
Always keep your mattress away from liquids, as they can destroy the memory foam. It’s a good idea to buy a mattress cover that will absorb any spills, and is machine washable to get it clean fast. If something does happen, check with the manufacturer about the proper cleaning procedure, and follow those instructions to the letter in order to prevent further damage.
