It took about 48 hours in a well-ventilated room for the smell to dissipate.Īt moving time, we ran into more than a slight snag: The Purple doesn’t have any handles. The Purple doesn't have an overly strong smell, but there is a slight chemical odor that was similar to plastic or rubber, and we wanted to make sure it was gone before moving it into our son’s bedroom.

The directions indicate that the mattress should be unrolled and decompressed on the bed where it will be used. The mattress was only 4 inches deep when in the sealed bag, but after being released, it popped up to 9 inches within a minute. It took another hour for it to reach its full height of 9.5 inches. Luckily, the mattress comes with a box cutter (as well as two sleep masks and a sample of the inner mattress grid) which made short work of the vacuum-sealed bag. After getting through the exterior bag, we had to cut away at inner plastic wrap and then slice through the vacuum-sealed bag. Unfortunately, the struggle didn’t end there. The process of getting the mattress out of the first bag took almost 15 minutes. It's then rolled in industrial plastic wrap and slipped into an additional bag. To shrink the mattress for shipping, the bed is vacuum-sealed in an airtight bag. While the directions proved simple, getting the mattress out of its packaging was a challenge. Printed on the outside of the mattress bag were easy-to-follow, four-step instructions. Yes, it's big, but the Purple showed up in a bag that was nowhere near as large as we imagined.
