Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up and maintaining the Rest Relax Visco Therapy 17cm Value Comfort Sprung mattress is designed to be simple and hassle-free.
Setup:
- Unpack the mattress carefully from its packaging.
- Allow the mattress to expand fully to its intended shape and size. This typically takes a few hours, but can take up to 24 hours for the material to settle completely.
- Place the mattress on a suitable bed base (e.g., slatted frame, divan base, or bunk bed). Ensure the base is clean and dry.
Compatibility:
- Bed Bases: Compatible with most standard bed bases, including slatted frames, solid platforms, divan bases, and specifically designed frames for bunk beds, trundles, and midsleepers.
- Mattress Protectors: Recommended to use a mattress protector to safeguard against spills and stains.
- Fitted Sheets: Standard king-size fitted sheets should fit. For very deep mattresses, specialized sheets are sometimes needed, but the 17cm depth is within common ranges.
Care:
- Washing the Cover: The mattress features a removable zip-off cover. Unzip and remove the cover. Machine wash according to the care label instructions. Ensure the cover is completely dry before replacing it.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor spills or stains on the mattress core, use a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the mattress.
- Rotation: While not strictly necessary due to its construction, periodically rotating the mattress (end-to-end) can help ensure even wear over time, though it is not designed to be a 'flip-able' mattress.
- Ventilation: Ensure the mattress has adequate ventilation, especially if used on a solid base or in a humid environment.
