Bought a bed in a box from Dr. Evil Amazon. It’s been expanding for about a day now. How long before I can sleep on it? Do I really even have to wait? I remember hearing you have to let it expand all the way.

      I know leaving your mattress outside sounds like crazy talk, but off-gassing is a thing, folks. Personally I would opt for leaving the windows open as much as possible over cleaning off bird poop.

        Yeah thinking back, when we got one here we didn’t literally take it outside, we left it in a room with the door closed and the windows open, so the fumes didn’t get into the rest of the house much. It stopped smelling after a few days.
