Care for It, It Cares for You.
A mattress is a long-term investment in how you feel every morning. A few simple habits keep it comfortable for years — and help protect the warranty that comes with it. Here’s all of it.
Use a mattress protector from day one, rotate it regularly, give it proper support, keep it clean, and follow the care basics to protect both your comfort and your warranty. None of it is complicated — a protector handles most messes, rotating shares the wear, a sturdy base keeps it from sagging, and a quick vacuum and airing-out keeps it fresh. Look after it and your mattress stays comfortable far longer.
Five Habits That Make It Last.
Do these and your mattress keeps feeling the way it did the day you brought it home.
Use a Protector From Day One
A mattress protector guards against spills, sweat, dust and everyday wear, and keeps the surface cleaner over the life of the bed. It’s the single easiest thing you can do.
It also helps keep your warranty intact, since stains and damage can affect coverage. We carry protectors at all 6 Saskatchewan stores.
Rotate Regularly, Head-to-Foot
Turn the mattress 180 degrees on a regular basis so wear is shared evenly instead of building up where you sleep most.
Most modern mattresses are one-sided, so rotate — don’t flip — unless the maker specifically says it’s built to be flipped.
Give It Proper Support
Set the mattress on a sturdy, supportive base or foundation suited to it — a solid platform, a proper foundation, or an adjustable base.
Poor or sagging support can cause the mattress to sag, which affects comfort and can affect warranty coverage. Not sure what fits? Ask in-store.
Keep It Clean
Vacuum the surface to lift dust, spot-clean small marks gently with a mild cleaner and a damp cloth, and let it air out fully before remaking the bed.
Avoid soaking the mattress. With a protector on, most messes never reach the mattress at all.
Good Care Keeps the 10-Year Warranty Intact
Every Modern Mattress comes with a 10-year warranty. The same habits that keep it comfortable — a protector, proper support, and keeping it clean — also help keep your coverage in place.
Stains, damage or a sagging base can affect warranty coverage, so a little care goes a long way.
Care Starts With What’s Around It.
A mattress doesn’t work alone. The protector that keeps it clean, the base that supports it, and the right setup all decide how long it stays comfortable — and whether your warranty stays intact.

New Mattress? Start It Right. Four Steps.
Set it up well and the care is easy after that.
Add a Protector
Put a mattress protector on before the first night so spills, sweat and dust never reach the mattress itself.
Set It on Proper Support
Use a sturdy base, foundation or adjustable base suited to your mattress so it stays supported and doesn’t sag.
Rotate on a Schedule
Turn it head-to-foot regularly so wear is shared evenly. Rotate, don’t flip, unless the maker says otherwise.
Keep It Clean
Vacuum, spot-clean gently, and air it out now and then. Good care keeps it comfortable and helps protect your 10-year warranty.

What we hear most on the showroom floor.
How do you take care of a mattress?
A few habits do most of the work: use a mattress protector from day one, rotate it regularly head-to-foot, give it a sturdy base or foundation for proper support, and keep it clean by vacuuming, spot-cleaning and airing it out. Good care protects both how the mattress feels over time and the warranty that comes with it.
Should you flip or rotate your mattress?
Most modern mattresses are one-sided, so you rotate them rather than flip them — turn it 180 degrees head-to-foot so wear is shared evenly across the surface. Don’t flip a one-sided mattress, because the underside isn’t built to be slept on. Always follow what the maker says: if a mattress is designed to be flipped, flip it; otherwise, rotating regularly is the way to go.
Do you really need a mattress protector?
A protector is the single easiest way to look after a mattress. It guards against spills, sweat, dust and everyday wear, keeps the surface cleaner, and helps the mattress stay in good condition over its life. Many warranties can be affected by stains or damage, so using a protector from day one helps keep your coverage intact. We carry protectors at all 6 Saskatchewan stores.
What base should you use under a mattress?
Use a sturdy, supportive base or foundation suited to your mattress — a solid platform, a proper foundation, or an adjustable base. Support matters because a weak or sagging base can let the mattress sag, which affects comfort and can affect warranty coverage. If you’re not sure what fits your mattress, ask in-store and we’ll point you to the right support.
How do you clean a mattress?
Keep it simple: vacuum the surface to lift dust, spot-clean small marks gently with a mild cleaner and a damp cloth, and let the mattress air out fully before putting bedding back on. Avoid soaking it. A protector makes all of this far easier, since most messes never reach the mattress itself.
Does taking care of a mattress protect the warranty?
Yes — good care helps protect your coverage. Every Modern Mattress comes with a 10-year warranty, and basic care keeps it intact: use a protector, give the mattress proper support, and keep it clean, since stains, damage or a sagging base can affect warranty coverage. Look after it and the warranty is there when you need it.
