I've had my mattress out of the plastic for 25hrs now and only one end has decompressed or about <5% of the mattress. How long does it take?

I left mine out for almost a week and it never expanded to the full 10". I still have it and in some places it is only 7". I think you should give it at least 3 days to air out though because the smells are pretty strong. I may have gotten a dud.

Ours was inflated within less than 24 hrs. I bought the same mattress for my son and his wife for Christmas because they liked ours so much that we bought for the spare room and he said it inflated within less than 24 hrs and they love it.

Gregory, when I opened my mattress, it began expanding immediately. I opened mine before leaving on a two-day trip; when I got back, it was ready to go. I do the recommended rotation every two weeks and am pleased with the mattress quality and comfort thus far. Hope all works out well for you.

You know, that is really strange. Mine was fully expanded within the hour.I just cut open the plastic slowly and let it decompress. It was really quick. I'm afraid you may have a defective one. Also it has been pretty cold, that may have something to do with it. Yeah, ours had no scent at all ,I could'nt be happier. Let me know what happens, I was planning on purchasing another one. Good luck. Manuel

Mine took less than 24 hours as well. I've been sleeping on mine for 2 weeks now and love it.

I allowed it to warm up in the house for 2 days (it was froozen when i got it) and it came to normal in about 1 hr

Mine is doing the same thing! I've bought these before and they have been fine. Something is up with this mattress!

It's a bit awkward moving it around, but once you have it in place you just cut away the plastic and let it settle. We gave ours 24 hours before sleeping on it. Moving it in its current form is going to be a bit tricky.

The mattress is in one piece. it comes in a big box, but is reduced down to make it fit. After a few minutes it will open up and it will be ready to use. I think that it says it should take longer, but it opens up pretty fast. I hope this helps.

The absolute longest it should take to decompress is 7 days. If it has not fully decompressed within 7 days, we recommend that you contact the Amazon seller, or, contact the manufacturer directly.

I used a recieving blanket and stuck the mattress between it folded in half because its small. You can only use this til 3 months

A big dip DID develop in the middle, but I had the person who helped me assemble this over and we figured out what we did wrong. We only put the cover over the MATTRESS and it should go over the metal below, if that makes sense. We fixed it two months ago and it is staying put. Haven't noticed one side being firmer than the other--they are both the same. I can see where, over time, the side that you actually sit on as a couch getting worn out and less firm, but this hasn't happened yet.

The mattress expands. Once you take it out of the box you will see that the mattress is vacuum packed...it takes 24 hours to air out and get to the specified dimensions

I would say 5 to 15 minutes. For me it take probably 10 minutes for decompression to work, but it is dependent on the angle. I have been going 10-minutes at about 60 degrees, then I'll also get off adjust the belt to 90 degrees and go for 2 more minutes. It will take some time to work up to what each individual is comfortable with.

Guessing about an inch or more, I had some springs I could feel in my mattress it completely eliminated then feel of them!

I have this mattress and I'm having the same problem. It scoots down so that it's drooping off the edge and the frame is exposed at the top.

I only let it decompress about 12 hours, and I slept on it that night as I didn't have another bed. It seemed to decompress further over the next few days while not used.

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.

15-30 seconds. Just opening the plug on the end will deflate quickly but you can also turn the air pump on and set it to deflate and the motor will suck air out of the mattress. It deflates quickly enough by just opening the valve that I've never used the pump except to see how it worked.

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.

After 48hrs, mine is still at 15" with hallow and saggy corners and loose outer covering on 4 sides. I desperately want to sleep on it minus that 1 inch but i'm giving it another 24 hrs to fill up some more. The hallow corners makes me sad coz i don't know how it can fill up unless it rises another 2inches more at least.

If it is your first time trying to get it out, this is fairly normal. The plastic has not been stretched as much so it will be harder to take out. Start on the left side of the screen at the corners and push down on it to seep rate it from the case. It might take a little bit of work to get it out but just go for it. If you can't get it out and you have taken it out before I would suggest getting some tools to pry it out.
