FAQs

Simba 1500

Can I clean my mattress?

Yes, you can clean your mattress using light fabric cleaning products or a soft, damp cloth. However, we do not recommend removing the cover.

Will I be able to get the mattress back in the box?

Once the mattress is out of the box, it cannot be put back inside. We also do not recommend attempting to fold or roll it as this may damage the spring layer inside.

Will my mattress have a smell when i first open it?

There might be a slightly unusual smell for the first few nights due to the fresh-out-of-the-box foam. However, this smell will fade away after a few days and will not return.

Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Hybrid

Do I need to flip the Aurora Luxe mattress?

Flipping the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe mattress is not necessary or recommended. The mattress layers are arranged in a specific sequence, from base to top. However, rotating the bed every six to eight months is advisable.

Where is the Aurora Luxe mattress made?

The Aurora Luxe mattress is manufactured in Phoenix, Arizona.

Is the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Good for Couples?

The Aurora Luxe is an excellent choice for couples due to its motion isolation, responsiveness, and edge support. Its ability to absorb vibrations means you're unlikely to be disturbed by your partner's movements during the night. The coil core's bounce facilitates movement, and the sturdy edges allow full surface use of the mattress.
