Tempur-Pedic says its own mattresses have a dedicated sleeping side and should not be flipped; rotation is optional for some models. Other brands and constructions may differ, so follow the specific manual.

0 / 6 done

Read the manufacturer and model label, then find the model-specific care guide.
Distinguish flipping (turning the sleeping side over) from rotating (switching head and foot).
Never flip a one-sided mattress; also verify whether rotation is required, optional or discouraged for your model.
Remove bedding and inspect for moisture, tears, sagging and stains. Do not assume moving the mattress fixes damage.
If the manual allows repositioning, use two people and enough space to avoid awkward lifting. Follow restrictions on bending and storage.
Check the approved support base and cover-care directions; contact the maker for warranty or damage questions.
