Can I sleep on a mattress immediately after unpacking it?
Yes, you can use your IKEA mattress straight away, including mattresses that are vacuum-packed and rolled.
You can sleep on your mattress as soon as you unpack it. However, it may take up to 72 hours for the mattress to fully return to its original shape and comfort.
Your body may take a few weeks to adjust to a new mattress. Give yourself time to adapt and settle into a comfortable night’s sleep.
