Mattress Care Guide

Your new mattress set has been carefully designed with your comfort and support in mind. At first, it may seem quite different from the mattress you have been sleeping on. This is normal, and you will soon become adjusted to the extra comfort and support of your sleep set. Follow these helpful hints on mattress care and your purchase will provide years of added comfort and performance.

  • DOs OF MATTRESS CARE

    DO purchase a sleep SET.

    The matching box spring works with the mattress to provide the right support. In some instances, failure to use a proper box spring could void the warranty and may lead to damage, unsatisfactory performance or reduced mattress life.

  • DOs OF MATTRESS CARE

    DO use a protective pad.

    A good quality, washable mattress pad (and one for the box spring, too, if you like) is a must to keep your set fresh, dry and free from stains. A waterproof pad is a good idea if there are children or pets in the home.

  • DOs OF MATTRESS CARE

    DO let it breathe.

    If you detect a slight “new product” odor, leave the mattress and box spring uncovered and well ventilated. This new product odor will dissipate with time and fresh air.

  • DOs OF MATTRESS CARE

    DO give it good support.

    Use a sturdy bed frame. If your set is a full, queen or king size, make sure your frame has an adequate center support that will prevent bowing or breakage.

  • DON’Ts OF MATTRESS CARE

    DON’T dry clean.

    The chemicals in dry cleaning agents/spot removers may be harmful to the fabric or underlying materials. Vacuuming is the only recommended cleaning method. But if you’re determined to tackle a stain, use mild soap with cold water and apply lightly. Don’t ever soak a mattress or box spring.

  • DON’Ts OF MATTRESS CARE

    DON’T remove that tag.

    Contrary to popular belief, it’s not illegal to remove the law tag, but the information on the label will serve as a means of identification should you have a warranty claim.

  • DON’Ts OF MATTRESS CARE

    DON’T bend, fold, drag or drop.

    Unless a mattress or box spring is made entirely of soft material (like foam or cotton), or is specially built for folding, it probably has a border wire inside that is not meant to be bent. Therefore, don’t bend your mattress or the corners when applying fitted sheets, going through doors, etc. If you have a question on how our kings are designed to be folded, please call American Beds in Bahrain.

  • DON’Ts OF MATTRESS CARE

    DON’T jump or walk on.

    Your sleep set is designed to be slept on. Jumping or walking on your mattress or box spring can damage the interior construction and possibly cause injury to yourself and others.
