1. Do you have any instructions for how I should unpack my topper pad or pillow and also care and use instructions for these memory foam producst as well??
Here are the manufacturer's instructions on opening your memory foam products and care and use instructions as well.
Unpacking Your Memory Foam Product
This Memory Foam Mattress Pad is made of the highest quality
Visco Elastic Foam available. It has been folded, machine
rolled and compressed for efficient delivery. This will not
affect its performance, but it may require 24 to 72 hours to
regain its full shape.
IMPORTANT Do not use scissors or any sharp object when
removing the plastic cover. Exercise care and remove the
plastic cover by hand. Gently pull the compressed product to
unroll it. If you notice a slight odor when the package is
opened, it is normal for “fresh foam” and will fade away in
couple of days. Gently separate the layers by using a slow,
steady, uniform pulling motion. Caution must be exercised,
to avoid tearing the foam. Once unrolled, allow it to recover
naturally before making up your bed. Simply center the
Memory Foam Topper directly on top of the mattress and cover
both with the same fitted sheet. If you have an overstuffed
or pillow top mattress, you may require deep pocket sheets
to cover the Memory Foam Mattress Pad.
Care and Use
Cleaning: Simply spot wash by hand with warm water and mild
detergent. Rinse and gently wring out. Allow product to
air dry prior to use. Do not machine wash or dry.
Safety - Fire safety precautions should always be followed.
You may use an electric blanket, but be sure it is in good
working condition and UL approved with no visible wear or
frayed wiring.
My Hints for Airing out the Topper Pads
We tend to air our
out new Topper Pads out in a spare room with the
windows open for fresh air. One trick we have learned is
that the Topper Pad seems to air out more quickly with a fan
blowing on it. So we put the pad over a chair with the fan
blowing on it, and turn the pad over in the morning to air
out both sides equally. This takes care of the odor, for the
most part, within a day or two and then it should be ready to
go on your bed.
After you begin to use the Topper Pad, you can take care of
any residual odor by airing it out in the same manner during
the day and then putting the pad back on your bed at night.
In our experience, this takes care of any such residual odor
in a few days. Another option is airing the Topper Pad outside
for a day or two. Many customers tell us this works well, but
of course you need to be careful about any dirt or moisture
outside that may damage the Topper Pad.
