Everyone loves a luxurious mattress – but it’s important to take proper care of it so it remains comfortable and supportive for years. Neglecting the simple mattress care practices can lead to a mattress that quickly starts to feel lumpy, saggy or just not quite the same as when it was new.

Here are some practical tips to ensure your luxury mattress remains in pristine condition. 

Rotate Regularly

Rotating your mattress every three to six months is key in maintaining its longevity. Turn it end-over-end and side-to-side for even wear, and be sure to flip it over if it’s a two-side mattress. This eliminates those uncomfortable pockets that can start to form over time in the same sleeping area. 

Cleaning

It’s important to vacuum and spot clean your luxury mattress on occasion. This help you freshen-up and deodorize it easily. Make sure to mix a mild detergent and spot-cleaning solution together, and carefully dab-on the solution in small circular motions. It’s best to avoid machine-washing fabric-based mattresses or submerging them in liquid cleansers.

Bedding Changes 

A mattress protector is a great way to keep your luxury mattress clean. If you’ve purchased one, it’s important to wash it every three to four weeks. Otherwise, materials like your sheets and pillowcases that come into direct contact with your mattress need to be washed regularly. This helps prevent dirt and oils from accumulating on the surface of the mattress and will extend its life. 

Storing

When not in use, it’s best to store a luxury mattress in a cool and dry place, such as a climate-controlled garage or closet. Be sure to protect it from direct sunlight, which has the potential to damage or discolor fabrics over time. If you’re temporarily storing a luxury mattress for a move, ensure that it’s fully supported and secured, and that you’re careful how you handle it. 

Maintaining a clean and comfortable luxury mattress is key to ensuring a good night’s rest. Regularly rotating, cleaning and protecting your mattress can go a long way in keeping its lifespan intact. With a few simple maintenance tasks, your luxury mattress will stay in pristine condition for years to come.
