Comment posted Crib mattress recommendations….? by NikkiW♥Due 05/01/10♥.

Those 3 names you mentioned aren’t off brands at all. They are major brand names in mattresses from crib to kings. They are all very good and any of those 3 would suit your needs. If money is an issue then just go with the cheapest. But those 3 are definitely great names in mattresses.

• What is the best way to clean a used crib mattress?
  I would use vinegar/water solution instead. The vinegar disinfects, but has a lot less chemical/fumes.

  If you do use a bleach solution, let the mattress air outside very well before you bring it back in to use. It should have no trace of chlorine smell left. You might want to even wipe it down a few times afterwards with a little warm soapy water, just to get all the bleach off.

• What is the best way to fix a saggy mattress?
  a lot of times the matress sagging on lower to mid grade matresses can be caused by either damage to the box spring, or over compression of the matress springs. If it’s the box spring, laying a sheet of plywood over the top of the box spring, and under the matress will firm up the matress quite a lot. The box spring really dosen’t serve a funtion other than provide better air flow for the matress, allowing the material to dry and last longer, plus the astetic benifits associated with a good thick looking matress. If you want to see if it is the box spring without buying the plywood, place the matress directly on the floor and lay on it. If it still sags then it’s the springs in the matress itself. In that case there’s not a lot you can due due to the metal deformity that already exists. I will tell you it’s fairly common for older matresses to lose flexibility in their springs over time due to the alloys of steel used, and unfortunatly there is no good way to get that flexibility back. If it’s indeed the box spring, and you want to still have ventelation to the matress, you’ll want to take a hole saw and drill 2 or 3 inch holes about 6 inches apart, but overall you most likely won’t see any difference even without the additional air exposure of a box spring, just ensure you keep your sheets clean with normal washing. (at least every week or two)
• *~Did I get a good deal on the price of this bed set?*~?
  Well those sound pretty economical though, but if you have a couple of choices I have one site for you, I just got this set few weeks ago though, the quality is suberb ! It has 650 Thread counts but that’s really enough to make me sleep so well. Also, they have like heaps of unique properties like anti-fungus or formadehyde free.

  Tell me if it’s helpful though.

• What is the best way to tie a mattress to the roof rack of a van?
  First I’d try to wrap the set in something that would protect it from the weather and wind. Some type of plastic wrap or tarp taped securely. I’d use two or three tie down straps (ratchet strap) available in hardware stores. Place the mattress on the van first with the box spring on top of that. Ratchet the whole thing down with the tie down straps. Take care not to pull the strap down so tight it breaks the box spring, those things will break if you over tighten. Good luck on your trip and I hope this helps
