How thick is the Zoma mattress?

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.
