FAQs

Douglas

How often should I rotate my mattress?

It is recommended to rotate mattresses every 4 to 6 months. This is particularly important if there is a significant weight difference between the people using the bed. Rotating a mattress involves turning it 180 degrees, effectively making the foot of the bed the head, and vice versa. This allows the mattress surface to recover from prolonged body indentations, contributing to its longevity.

Is the Douglas mattress good for back pain?

Yes, the Douglas mattress, with its medium-firm feel, is often recommended for individuals experiencing back pain. This firmness level aids in maintaining proper spinal alignment.

Is the Douglas mattress hot?

The Douglas mattress uses Tencel fabric in its cover to draw moisture away from the body, aiding in cooling. However, individuals who are prone to overheating may still find it too warm.

Noa Lite

How firm is the Lite mattress?

The Lite mattress is ideal for back and stomach sleepers who prefer a firm sleeping surface. It offers a slight contouring effect for comfort and pressure relief during sleep. On a firmness scale of 1-10, most customers rate the Lite mattress as an 8. However, firmness can be subjective and may vary based on factors such as the user's weight, height, sleeping position, and room temperature.

How do I clean the mattress cover?

The mattress cover is not designed to be removed. To keep it clean, it's recommended to use a mattress protector from the start to guard against spills and dirt. If cleaning is necessary, spot clean the area with a mild detergent, dabbing gently and avoiding rubbing. Make sure the cleaned area is completely dry before replacing the mattress protector or sheets.

How long does it take for the mattress to fully expand?

The mattress should expand within 30-60 seconds. While it can be used immediately, it's recommended to wait 2-3 days for the mattress to reach its optimal form and comfort level.
