Unpacking Your Zinus Mattress: A Step-by-Step Guide
Zinus mattresses arrive compressed for ease of shipping, making unpacking slightly different than a traditional mattress. With the right steps, you’ll have your Zinus mattress expanded and ready for use in no time.
Steps
-
Step 1: Prepare Your Workspace
- What are you trying to accomplish: Find an area with enough space for the mattress to expand.
- Detailed instructions: Ideally, place the mattress box directly on the bed frame or foundation where the mattress will be used. If not, choose a clean, open area.
-
Step 2: Remove the Mattress from the Box
- What are you trying to accomplish: Take the compressed mattress out for unrolling.
- Detailed instructions: Carefully cut open the box along the designated lines without cutting into the plastic wrapping of the mattress. Slide the compressed mattress out.
-
Step 3: Unwrap the Mattress
- What are you trying to accomplish: Remove the outer plastic for the mattress to start expanding.
- Detailed instructions: Cut along the outer plastic wrapping with scissors, being careful not to cut into the final protective layer around the mattress. Dispose of this outer plastic.
-
Step 4: Unroll the Mattress
- What are you trying to accomplish: Position the mattress correctly before it expands.
- Detailed instructions: Place the wrapped mattress on your bed frame or chosen surface.
-
Step 5: Initiate the Expansion
- What are you trying to accomplish: Allow the mattress to expand.
- Detailed instructions: Carefully cut along the final plastic layer. The mattress will immediately start decompressing and expanding. Pull the plastic away as it expands.
-
Step 6: Allow Full Expansion
- What are you trying to accomplish: Ensure the mattress reaches its full, intended size.
- Detailed instructions: Zinus recommends waiting at least 24-48 hours for full expansion, though you may be able to sleep on it sooner. Look for even inflation and no lingering wrinkles in the cover.
Helpful Tips
- Teamwork: An extra pair of hands makes maneuvering the box and cutting the plastic easier.
- Ventilation: Open windows or use a fan to help dissipate any initial off-gassing odor from the foam.
