Bed Buying and Care Tips Bed Care and Maintenance Sleeping is an important part of everyday life. Caring for your bed will provide you with restful nights of sleep, comfort and happiness for years to come. Follow these simple and easy guidelines to provide your bed with care that will help it last longer, and let you rest easier:
• DO Keep it Clean and Dry - One thing that is inevitable is your body losing moisture while you sleep. Much of this moisture ends up in your mattress but you can help to prevent some of this from happening by purchasing a washable mattress cover and placing it over your mattress. Additionally, you should vacuum the mattress regularly to help prevent dust from settling in. • DON'T Transport Unprotected - Do not, under any circumstances travel with your mattress unprotected on vehicle roof racks or without proper support. This can damage the integrity of the mattress leaving you uncomfortable during the night. • DO Spot Clean - Make sure that you treat stains as quickly as possible. Keep the surface clean by scraping away soil and try to mop away any liquid from the fabric. When cleaning, use warm soapy water to clean up spill residue, but make sure you test it out first to be sure there's no color damage. Additionally use as little water as possible and never use laundry detergents or scrub the mattress with a brush. Allow the mattress to dry thoroughly in a sun-protected environment.
