Setup, Compatibility & Care
Unpacking & Setup
Your DS Living Pureflex Hybrid Mattress arrives compressed and rolled for convenient delivery. Follow these steps for proper setup:
- Prepare the Space: Ensure your bed frame is ready and cleared of any old bedding or obstructions.
- Unroll: Carefully remove the mattress from its packaging, placing it on your bed frame. Avoid using sharp objects that could damage the mattress fabric.
- Expand: The mattress will begin to expand immediately. Allow it to fully decompress for 24-72 hours. While it can be slept on sooner, full expansion ensures optimal comfort and support.
- Ventilation: It's common for new foam mattresses to have a faint 'new mattress' smell, often called off-gassing. Ensure good ventilation in the room by opening windows for the first few days.
Compatibility
This mattress is compatible with most standard bed frames, including platform beds, slatted bases (ensure slats are no more than 3 inches apart to provide adequate support), and adjustable bases.
Care & Maintenance
- Mattress Cover: The cover of your mattress may vary. It is generally designed for durability. While spot cleaning with a mild detergent and damp cloth is possible for spills, check for specific care instructions on any attached tags if present. Do not machine wash or dry the mattress itself.
- Rotation: Rotate your mattress head-to-foot every 3-6 months. This helps to promote even wear and prolong the mattress's lifespan. This particular mattress is not designed to be flipped.
- Protection: Using a mattress protector is highly recommended to guard against spills, stains, and allergens, helping to keep your mattress hygienic and extend its life.
- Cleaning Spills: Immediately blot any spills with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain. For tougher spots, use a small amount of mild soap and water, then blot dry thoroughly.
