No, you should not flip an Avocado mattress. Avocado mattresses are specifically designed with a distinct top and bottom and are not intended for two-sided use.
Why Avocado Mattresses Are Not Meant to Be Flipped
Unlike traditional mattresses that may be designed for two-sided use, Avocado mattresses feature specialized comfort and support layers that are intended to function optimally when oriented correctly.
- Layered Design: Avocado mattresses are constructed with specific comfort and support layers that provide the intended feel and ergonomic support only when the mattress is right side up. The layers are strategically placed to offer the best sleep experience in one particular orientation.
- Comfort and Firmness: Flipping your Avocado mattress could result in a significantly different, and often firmer, feel than intended. This is because the comfort layers designed for the top would then be at the bottom, and the firmer core support layers would be closer to the surface.
Identifying the Correct Orientation
To ensure your Avocado mattress is positioned correctly and you're experiencing its designed comfort, there's a simple visual cue:
- Avocado Logo: The Avocado logo located at the head or foot of your mattress should always be right side up. This logo serves as a clear indicator of the mattress's correct orientation.
What to Do if Your Mattress Feels Too Firm
If you find your Avocado mattress feels unusually firm or hard, the most common reason is that it might be positioned upside down.
- Check the Logo: First, check the orientation of the Avocado logo at the head or foot of your bed. If the logo appears upside down, then your mattress is also upside down.
- Correct the Orientation: Carefully rotate and flip the mattress to ensure the Avocado logo is right side up. This should restore the intended comfort and feel, allowing you to experience the plush, supportive design of your Avocado mattress as it was meant to be.
