Rotating Your Mattress

What does “rotating” mean?

Rotating your mattress means turning it 180 degrees — so the end that was at the head of the bed is now at the foot. You do not need to flip the mattress — you’ll continue sleeping on the same surface.

How often should I rotate?

  • First 4 months: Every 2 weeks
  • Ongoing care: Once every 3 months (or with each season)

If you and your partner are different builds: You may benefit from rotating more frequently to balance body impressions.

Rotating regularly supports even wear across the mattress, helping you get the most life and comfort out of your bed.

Cleaning Your Mattress

Keeping your mattress clean helps maintain a healthy sleep environment and ensures it stays fresh and performs well for years.

How often should you clean your mattress?

Deep clean at least every 6 months. If you have allergies or pets in bed, aim for every 2–3 months.

Safe mattress care tips:

  • Vacuum regularly with low suction to remove dust and allergens.
  • Treat stains fast by blotting with a damp cloth — avoid scrubbing or soaking.
  • Keep it dry with a waterproof cover, especially for children’s beds.
  • Let it breathe with good ventilation to prevent moisture and odours.
  • Skip harsh chemicals to protect internal materials.
  • Shield from sunlight to prevent fading.
  • Use a mattress protector to guard against dust mites, sweat , and spills.

General FAQs

Does my mattress need a settling-in period?
Yes — like new shoes, your mattress needs time to adjust to your body. Your mattress needs 4–6 weeks to adjust to your body. A firmer feel or light impressions are normal as it “breaks in.” Rotate regularly for even settling.
Can I use my own base with an A.H. Beard mattress?
For best support, use a compatible base. If using slats, keep them under 10cm apart, secured with a centre rail, and in good condition — convex, not sagging — to avoid damage outside warranty.
Can I move the mattress on my own?
We recommend moving your mattress with two people. Always carry it on its side, never flat or folded. Avoid roof racks — strapping it down can bend or damage the edges.
Can I use the mattress handles to lift it?
No — mattress handles are not load-bearing. They’re designed only to help position or rotate your mattress.
How can I prevent uneven wear in my mattress?
Rotate it regularly (see our mattress rotation guide)
Use the entire sleeping surface, including the middle On king-size beds especially, if the middle is never used, it can feel and look different from your usual sleep zone.
Will standing or jumping on the bed damage it?
Yes. Misuse such as standing or jumping on your mattress can damage internal components and will void your guarantee.

This is by far the best mattress I have ever slept on. It was recommended to me by my sister as sleeping on this bed really helped with her back pain. And I can say that it has helped me immensely with my back issues. It is very comfortable and supportive.

Highly recommend this mattress

Multiple purchases have been made, for both family and our rental property. A good night’s sleep is such a basic requirement for health and happiness. A good quality mattress is the foundation.

We will continue to be proud to buy Australian. Well made and THE BEST.

The last bed we had for 12 years – a queen size A.H. Beard was great so we upgraded to a king size and are very happy with the Grand Harmony plush – great that they are made in Australia.
