Remove the plastic packaging film during the first use to keep the environment ventilated and dry and avoid moisture from the mattress. Never let the mattress expose it to the sun for too long to make the fabric fade.

Mattresses should be kept clean

A. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the mattress several times a year to keep the mattress clean.

B. Use soap and water to clean the stains on the mattress (do not use detergent) to avoid bacteria.

C. Drill the mattress frequently to keep your sleep refreshed and comfortable. (Please avoid long-term exposure to the sun) such as latex or memory foam mattresses.

D. Use cleaning pads.

Keep ventilation

Some mattresses have ventilation holes on the edges. Do not tighten the sheets and mattresses when using them, so as not to block the ventilation holes, causing the air in the mattress to be unable to circulate and breed germs.

The new mattress should be flipped regularly for six months before the new bed. The front, back, left, and head and feet of the mattress should be flipped once a month, and then fixedly flipped again every three months. This can eliminate the weight, squeeze the material inside the mattress and cause local depressions and unevenness (the normal range is within 4cm), so as to keep the mattress flat and comfortable and increase the service life.

Use good quality sheets

Use good quality sheets not only absorb sweat, but also keep the cloth clean.

Do not sit on the edge of the bed often

Do not sit on the edge of the bed often, because the four corners of the mattress are the most fragile, and sitting and lying on the edge of the bed for a long time can easily damage the edge protection spring.

Do not jump on the bed

Do not jump on the bed, so as not to damage the spring if the single point of stress is too strong. Notes on using mattresses:

If tea or coffee other beverages are overturned on the bed, they should be immediately sucked dry with a towel or toilet paper under heavy pressure, and then blow dry with a hair dryer. When the mattress is accidentally contaminated with dirt, use soap and water to clean it. Do not use strong acid or alkaline detergents to avoid fading and damage to the mattress.

Mattress health check:

When you find that the bed cloth is cracked or the car floral wire is falling off, you should check your mattress function carefully. Check whether the surface of the mattress is flat. The surface of a worn mattress is usually uneven or sunken. Lying on the bed, you will feel the spring directly, which is when the mattress should be replaced. Lying flat on the mattress, the whole person seems to be sinking, which means he lacks support. If you wake up in the morning and feel back pain and you can't find any other reason, it is very likely that the mattress has lost its proper elasticity, perhaps the entire mattress is too soft or the middle part of the mattress is not solid enough.

Determine whether to replace the mattress; compare the good mattress you slept elsewhere and your current mattress. If the gap is very large, it is time to replace the mattress.

Check whether your mattress length and width are large enough. Generally speaking, the length of the mattress is at least 15 to 20 cm higher than your height. The width depends on the size of the room. In principle, it should not be less than 5 cm, but it is best to use 6 cm wide as possible.
