You spend a third of your life on your Sealy™ mattress from the Royal Heritage Home Furnishings® Bedding Collection, recharging your batteries for tomorrow’s tasks. One of the most important furniture pieces you own deserves to be protected from liquid stains that can penetrate your sheets and leave foul odors and stains on your bedding.

Protecting your mattress from liquids such as urine, sweat, drinks and food is pretty simple: just keep it covered. Don’t put a garbage bag under the sheets and make your child sleep on a human noise maker all night, giving them the gift of grumpiness.  Instead, cover your mattress and pillows with a Royal Heritage® Mattress Protector and Royal Heritage® Pillow protector, which works to keep any type of liquid from leaving stains or odors behind. Our mattress protectors will keep your mattress fresh, allow you to sleep in a peaceful state and preserve your warranty coverage.

There are additional steps you can take to keep your mattress clean. Vacuuming the mattress is the only technique Sealy™   recommends. If the unthinkable does happen and some type of liquid reaches the mattress, Sealy™  recommends using only mild soap and cold water, and applying it lightly. Don’t ever soak a mattress or box spring, and don’t use dry cleaning solvents which could damage the construction materials .

Royal Heritage® Mattress Protectors and Royal Heritage® Pillow protectors are available through Royal Heritage Home Furnishings® as a part of our Royal Heritage Home Furnishings® Bedding Collection.

So what is the correct number? The answer to this depends on the person sleeping on the mattress, and, more importantly, on whether or not they’re sharing that mattress with someone else.

When first introduced to this crazy concept of mattress flipping, my first response was “Why would I ever do that?” Well, the answer is simple. To make the mattress last longer and sag less, both of which will save your back in the long-run. A mattress that is regularly flipped can last from 5-7 years longer. But what constitutes a “regular” amount of flipping? Was the person who recommended flipping twice a week for a total of 104 times a year right? Not exactly. Flipping a mattress once a month should suffice to prevent irregular wear.

If you do not flip your mattress, permanent sag will eventually set in, and it’s not always the kind of wear and tear that’s immediately visible. Sags tend to form in the middle of the mattress where bodies meet. The pressure from those bodies can cause springs to loosen, robbing the sleeper of the full support they need for rest.

Remember, it’s not enough to flip the mattress from left to right but from the head of the bed to the tail. This way, the whole mattress is being equally stressed.

Storage Beds were all the rage.  The styles made their first appearance about a year ago with only a few manufacturers.  In 2010, this style will be very popular.  Storage beds are great for storing things like seasonal clothes, blankets, pillows, children’s toys, and many other things that would have normally cluttered up your closets or living space.  These unique beds come in various wood finishes and drawer configurations. They accommodate Royal Heritage Mattresses perfectly!




Wood Trim Upholstery is making a comeback this year.  After a long absence, this style was quite popular with many innovative manufacturers.  Available in classic traditional, transitional and contemporary frames, they offer a refreshing look when framed in the most popular and attractive wood finishes.  We saw these wood trimmed frames upholstered in a variety of fabrics like linen, microfiber and chenilles.




Chairside Tables are one of the most welcome developments in the furniture industry in the last few years.  These convenient tables are about half the size of a normal end table and are perfect for a small room.  Now that we are seeing more master bedrooms with upholstery, these chairside tables allow for more room.  Chairside tables are available in a vast array of styles and wood finishes.  Some tables also come with a variety of unique functions.
