Product Information

Full details

The Rackhams Shorty Memory Foam Sprung Mattress is an ideal solution for those needing a space-efficient sleep surface, such as in guest rooms, bunk beds, or smaller living quarters. It combines the structured support of a classic open coil spring system with the adaptive comfort of memory foam, topped with temperature-regulating CoolTouch fabric. While it offers excellent value for compact areas, its specific sizing means it is best suited for frames matching its 'Shorty' dimensions rather than standard full-length beds.

FAQs

Is this mattress suitable for a standard single bed frame?

No, this is a 'Shorty' mattress, which has specific dimensions smaller than a standard UK single bed.

Does it need to be flipped?

This mattress is designed to be used on one side; we recommend rotating it head-to-toe periodically instead of flipping it.

How long should I wait to sleep on it?

While it can be used sooner, it is best to wait 24-48 hours for the mattress to fully decompress and expand.

Is the fabric hypoallergenic?

The CoolTouch fabric is designed for temperature regulation, though you should check the product label for specific material certifications if you have severe allergies.

Can I use this on a slatted bed frame?

Yes, as long as the slats are sturdy and spaced closely enough to support the spring unit properly.

Troubleshooting

The mattress does not look like its full size after opening

Allow up to 48 hours for the vacuum-compressed materials to fully expand and regain their intended shape.

There is a slight odor when first unboxed

This is normal for foam products. Ensure the room is well-ventilated, and the smell will typically dissipate within a few days.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent value for a hybrid mattress
  • Pressure-relieving memory foam layer
  • Breathable fabric helps regulate sleep temperature
  • Compact size is perfect for small rooms or bunk beds
  • Easy to transport thanks to the rolled, vacuum-sealed packaging

Cons

  • Specific 'Shorty' dimensions require a matching bed frame
  • Not suitable for individuals requiring extra-long bed lengths
  • Initial off-gassing may occur upon unrolling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your mattress, carefully bring the box into the room of your choice. Once removed from the packaging, cut the plastic seal to allow the mattress to expand. It is recommended to leave the mattress in a well-ventilated room for at least 24 to 48 hours to allow it to reach its full shape and for any manufacturing odors to dissipate. Ensure the mattress is placed on a compatible, supportive base—such as a bunk bed frame or a flat platform—that matches the 'Shorty' dimensions. To prolong the life of the mattress, rotate it from head-to-toe every few months to ensure even wear on the springs and foam.
