Comfort Pure Natural Cotton Mattress

This mattress is constructed without synthetic fire retardants, which are standard in most commercial mattresses. Because it does not meet federal flammability standards for mattresses, a medical prescription is required for purchase.

This is a very firm mattress. Because it is made entirely of dense cotton batting rather than springs or foam, it provides a supportive, non-bouncy surface that feels much harder than a traditional innerspring mattress.

Yes, it is highly versatile. It works well on platform beds, box springs, and both bi-fold or tri-fold futon frames, provided the slats are spaced closely enough to support the cotton batting without sagging.

Like all traditional cotton-filled mattresses, the batting will naturally compress and pack down with regular use. We recommend flipping and rotating the mattress regularly during the first few months to help it settle evenly.

The mattress arrives vacuum-packed for easier transport. Once you open the packaging, the cotton will expand, but because it lacks synthetic foams, it does not have a 'decompression' period; it is ready to use almost immediately.
