Warranty Information

Length of Warranty:  back to top  
Your warranty protects you from the day you purchase your sleep set and continues according to the “Warranty Schedule” found on this card. In the event that we repair or replace your sleep set, this warranty continues your protection from the original date of purchase.

Warranty Coverage:  back to top  
This warranty covers the following items during normal wear:

Mattress:
  • Torn handles, stitches pulled out of the handle where it’s sewn to the mattress, and tears in the mattress fabric where the handles are attached.
  • Coils or wires that are loose, broken, ripped or protrude through the fabric.
  • Body indentions of an inch and a half (1.5” inches). Click here to find out how to accurately measure an indention.
  • Unnatural sagging: Your warranty covers mattresses that are continuously supported by a matching box spring, or equivalent, with an appropriate frame. The frame has to include a rigid center support with at least 5 legs, or a rigid center support with at least 5 hardwood cross slats for queen and king sets.
Box Spring:
  • Splits in the box spring’s wood frame.
  • Squeaks, rattles or other noises.
  • Bent, loose or defective beams and/or box spring center support rail.
  • Compression of modules.
  • Un-stapling of modules.
  • Unstapling of modules
  • Unnatural sagging: A proper bed frame must continuously support the box spring. For king and queen sets, a rigid center support having at least 5 legs or a rigid center support having at least 5 hardwood cross slats is necessary. A rigid center support is as crucial as the four standard legs (one at each corner) for ensuring your sleep set has the proper balance and support necessary.

Examples of proper bed frames for queen- and king-size bedding:

What’s NOT Covered:

  1. Structural damage from using an improper bed frame (example: Less than 5 legs for a queen set).
  2. Floor models and clearance bedding sold “as is”.
  3. Comfort preference after you sleep on the bed (example: This bed is too soft.)
  4. Mattress damage due to an inappropriate box spring. Our mattresses are designed for full performance when used in conjunction with a matching box spring as part of a total sleep set.
  5. Replacement of another piece in the sleep set, unless that piece is defective too.
  6. Mattress, box spring and fabric damage due to abuse. This warranty does not cover product failure that is caused by anything other than defective workmanship or materials (example: Your movers sawed the bedding in half to get it upstairs.)
  7. Transportation costs of the product to and from the store or factory, as applicable.
We make every effort to ensure we manufacture our sleep sets using the finest materials available. If, however, you have discovered a defect in your Sealy Inc. mattress or box spring, we want to make it right. Please start your claim process here.

Extending the Comfort and Support Life of Your Sleep Set:  back to top  

Your new Sealy Mattress has one sleeping surface. This means you will never have to flip the mattress. This mattress has Stay True™ upholstery padding which increases its longevity and support performance. Body indentations can be a normal occurrence in your new mattress, and indicate that the upholstery layers are conforming to your body’s individual contours. Do not attempt to sleep on the box spring or the non-sleep surface of the mattress as they are not made for that purpose.
