Bed care guide

 

Caring for your new bed

Your new bed from Furniture Village is more than a beautiful piece of furniture. It’s an investment in your health and wellbeing.  Care for it well and you’ll enjoy a great nights sleep for many years to come.

On Delivery

  • Once your new bed is in place and all the packaging removed, let it air for a while before putting on your mattress protector and bed linen.
  • If you’re placing a new mattress on an old bed, the base should be strong and sound to get maximum benefit from your mattress.
  • Read the manufacturer’s care guides and any labels attached. Most give guidance on the materials and support systems in your bed.
  • Don’t worry if your new bed feels a little strange at first. It takes time for your body to adjust to a new level of support and comfort. You’ll soon be enjoying a more relaxed sleep.

Day to day care

  • Use a mattress protector to help avoid stains and reduce dust.
  • Turn down your bedding each morning to air your mattress.
  • When changing your bedding, brush your mattress with a soft brush rather than your vacuum cleaner.
  • Treat stains and spills immediately. Don’t use detergent or a hard brush, as you might damage the material or stitching.
  • Avoid standing or jumping on your mattress or sitting on the edge of your bed for long periods. You could damage the springs.
  • Most manufacturers recommend you turn your mattress every fortnight for the first six months.  Check the advice that comes with your mattress.
  • Settling of the fillings is quite normal. Turning your mattress will help keep the filling supportive.
  • If you have invested in our five-year protection warranty, make sure you receive your policy documents within 28 days of delivery of your new bed. In the event of an accident such as a spill, tear, rip, or burn, contact Valspar immediately.

Caring for bed frames, pillows and storage

  • Check all bolts, screws, legs and castors regularly to make sure they haven’t loosened.
  • If you have a bedstead with a mattress, use a mattress pad over the wooden slats to reduce wear on the mattress cover.
  • Plump your pillows regularly to keep them soft and comfortable.
  • Change your pillows every three years or so. When you do, you’ll notice the difference!
  • Storage drawers in divan beds are designed to carry lightweight items such as pillows, duvets, and linen. Try to avoid storing heavier items like books or toys.
  • You’ll find more advice on caring for wood furniture in our Dining and Bedroom Furniture Care Guide.
