I see a few reviewers mentioned letting the mattress expand for 48 hours. Didn't see anything about it on the paperwork. Is it necessary?

I did not let ours air out and they seemed fine. We used ours about 12 hours after I opened them. We did use them with girls age 4 and 7, not adults.

Hello! I'm not sure if its necessary or not but I did wait and I still love the mattress. I have it in my houseboat so waiting wasn't an issue. I guess it's better to be safe than sorry.

We saw it in th p/w too, but once we unwrapped it, it took on a life of it's own! Hahha! It expanded in less than 5 minutes, and we slept REAL nice that very night!! Hope that helps!

It only takes a few hours to expand, but you could. It does havea strong smell from the paix packaging for 2 hours though. It's a great mattress though you won't regret it.

yes..remember tho.. allow a day or two for the mattress to air out and to "inflate" to it full size.. sleeps very good!

It's in a small box, when you pull it out it expands. My son sleeps like a rock on it, it's a great mattress. Just make sure you let it air out for a few days after you pull it out of the box.

I bought two of these in twin size for my boys. I let them air out for 24 hours, then started using them. However I also have a California king that did need the 48 hours to fill out.

We puchased our mattress 4 months prior to our daughter sleeping on it. I took it out of plastic and let air out for weeks before our little one started sleeping in crib. I have always air out new mattress and pillows before 1st use. Let it air out with no sheets or coverings

The warranty, I believe, will be void if u cut it. Re: keeping integrity of mattress. By altering in any way u're sure to significantly compromise the comfort and durability. Happy New Year Aunt Bev!

The company states 24 to 48 hours, but I unfurled the two mattresses we purchased as soon as I got to my son's house around 2pm and let them start expanding. Went to bed around 11pm and got a good night's sleep on them that very first night. They seemed completely expanded by that time and the next night I really couldn't tell any difference.

It expands once it is unpacked, within 1-2 days Do not send it back until u have allowed it to expand

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.

After u let it sit for the time they give u , should be able to take cover off and trim , it has to sit like 48 hours before fully expanded .

It took mine 24 hours to completely open up Buts its Usable Within Minutes. Its Compressed Because Mattresses Are Large..thus Costly To Ship

Memory foam needs to be opened and left to air for some time...I forget if its 12 or 24 hours...before you sleep on it. Really important!

We let it expand for 24 hours like the directions indicated. It measures 6" thick at the outer seams.

Ours was a full 12 inches in less than hour. It was 75-76F in the house, and the mattress had been at that temp for several days, compressed.There was no smell, and we slept on it within three hours of setting it up.
