How long does it take for a mattress that has been rolled up to take its original shape?

Some of our mattresses come rolled and vacuum packed

Please note that when a rolled mattress is unpacked, it does not return to its original shape until 72 hours later.

 The mattress can be used as soon as it is opened, but at first it may feel too firm. Allow a month for your body to get used to the mattress and for the mattress to get used to your body.

Keep in mind that all new materials have their own odour, which is not harmful and gradually disappears. Airing and vacuuming the mattress will help to eliminate the odour.
