How long does it take to de-compress once you open the package?

We let it air out for a few days and had no issues. It was a big improvement over the previous mattress and fit fine in its place.

The mattress is rolled for packaging. Just unroll, unwrap and lay down flat for about 48 hrs to let it air out.

No time at all. I just left it overnight so it could air out. But it took shape shortly after I opened the package. Great mattress

Not long, considering how compressed the foam looks...maybe a couple of hours at most. It's MAGIC!!!

48 hours seems like a while. I punctured the vacuum seal at approx. 6pm Friday, and by 8am Saturday I had a HUGE cozy sack in my back room LOL. Make sure you open it where you intend to keep it. It's an absolute bear to fit through doorways.

10-20 minutes. With the compression it'll feel colder than it really is. Put a thin towel like a washcloth on your leg so that the ice pack isn't directly on your skin your first time to determine your tolerance.

This may not be definite enough to be helpful: I believe the carton it came in was less than 2 feet long, but it's been a while and I wasn't paying much attention to that. It was significantly compressed.

A quick release only takes a minute or two. Letting the pressure come down naturally can take up to 20 minutes or more and a short quick release is still sometimes needed.

Mine was ok after about 8 hours. It looked to be fully decompressed by then but I also just purchased mine as a guest bed so it wasn't slept on for a few days anyway.

Like the previous answers, it takes very little room. Once refolded, you could even put it back in the original box and bag.

It is compressed and looks half the size of the actual product in the box. However, it expands to the full size when taken from the box

According to package directions, the foam should be aired out in a well ventilated area for 24 (or 48) hours before use. Over this time, the foam will decompress slowly. After the airing period, there should be no noticeable smell at all.

I followed the instructions that were in the package. I believe it was about 4 hours.

It should take 10 min. or so. It really depends on a lot of factors. Search youtube there are lots of instructional videos.

The max is 12 hours at a time. I don't remember the total hours, maybe 100? (At the best quality, least compression.)

These glue sticks have a working time of something like 13-16 seconds from what I remember in my research - I wish they were faster because that is actually way too long of a time to just hold box flaps down, slowing packing.

about an hour or 2 depends on how cold the item was when you put it in there

Mine did the same thing. I just squeezed the air out and used a clip to close it. It's frustrating though, you spend so much money on a product, you expect it to have proper packaging.

It depends on the temperture in room as to how fast it decompresses. Sometimes I have used same day. I do like the value and quality. Am getting to order to California twins for a remodel project we are starting soon. Hope you enjoy yours

It depends on how much you have saved not zipped. If item is not compressed and zipped it takes up more room on the hard drive I love my window 7!
