FAQs

Simba 5000

How thick is the Simba 5000?

The Simba 5000 Pro Flex mattress boasts a luxurious depth of 14 inches, spread across seven layers, making it Simba's deepest mattress yet.

Do I need to use a mattress protector?

While it's not compulsory to use a mattress protector with the Simba 5000, it's recommended if you want to keep your mattress in pristine condition.

How do I set up my new Simba 5000?

Setting up your new Simba 5000 mattress is straightforward. Simply unbox it, unroll it on your bed base, and carefully cut the plastic to break the vacuum seal. Remove all packaging and let your mattress expand. It's safe to use within 3-6 hours, but it may take up to 72 hours to fully expand.

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.
