Product Information

Full details

The Shire Bed Company Classic Cotton Hypoallergenic Support Tufted Ortho Mattress is designed for sleepers who prioritize firm support and natural temperature regulation. It is an ideal choice for those suffering from dust-related sensitivities due to its hypoallergenic composition, though users who prefer a soft, cloud-like sleeping surface may find its firm ortho spring core too rigid for their personal comfort preferences.

FAQs

Is this mattress suitable for allergy sufferers?

Yes, this is a hypoallergenic mattress designed with materials that minimize the retention of dust and other common allergens.

Can I use this mattress on an adjustable bed frame?

No, this mattress features a traditional open coil spring unit and a rod edge frame, which is not designed to flex for adjustable bases.

How often should I flip the mattress?

We recommend flipping and rotating the mattress every six months to maintain even wear on the fillings and springs.

Does the mattress come with a warranty?

Yes, it is manufactured to high quality standards by an award-winning British manufacturer; please check your specific retailer receipt for warranty duration details.

What is the benefit of the rod edge frame?

The rod edge frame reinforces the perimeter of the mattress, preventing it from sagging at the edges and providing a more stable surface when you sit on the side of the bed.

Is the cotton cover removable for washing?

The cover is integrated into the construction of the mattress; you should use a removable, machine-washable mattress protector instead of trying to remove the factory cover.

Troubleshooting

Mattress feels uneven after a few months

The mattress may have settled due to uneven use; ensure you are following the recommended flipping and rotation schedule.

Noise from springs

Check that the bed frame is level and that all slats are properly secured. An unlevel base can put undue stress on the open coil unit.

Mattress is too firm

If the mattress feels excessively firm, consider adding a high-quality breathable mattress topper to adjust the comfort level.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the performance of your Shire Bed Company mattress, ensure it is placed on a compatible base, such as a solid platform bed or a sprung slatted frame. If using a slatted frame, ensure the gaps between slats are no greater than 7cm to avoid damaging the coil structure.

Care Instructions:

  1. Rotate the mattress head-to-toe every two weeks for the first three months, then once every three months thereafter.
  2. Flip the mattress every six months to utilize both sleeping sides.
  3. Vacuum the surface lightly using an upholstery attachment to remove dust.
  4. Use a breathable mattress protector to prevent moisture absorption and keep the cotton cover clean.
