FAQ

GiNO appreciates the finer aspects of a good night's sleep such as high quality materials, breathable and hypoallergenic foams, excellent quality control, and high product safety. Every GiNO mattress is made at the same factory outside of Florence, Italy and uses only 100% made-in-Italy materials which guarantees you are receiving a high quality mattress and we never view you as 'just another order'. We are also proud to have a production process that does not rely on toxic chemicals and we are able to provide you with a mattress that has passed Oeko-Tex Standard 100 requirements on every layer of the mattress.
GiNO is used with 100% made-in-Italy materials. All of the foams we use are expanded using water based technology which creates an open cell structure that leaves GiNO breathable and cooler than standard memory foam. GiNO's foams rise naturally using water pressure and air which also eliminates the use of toxic chemicals in the expansion process and makes GiNO a more natural and safer choice. We hold an Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certificate on all of our products to give you peace of mind while you sleep.
You can sleep on GiNO almost immediately after opening it. It might take closer to 24 hours for the corners to fully regain shape but we encourage you to start enjoying GiNO as soon as you get it!
No! The materials used in GiNO have an open cell construction so they stay cooler and are more breathable than traditional memory foam mattresses.
Not at all. GiNO is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified so it is free of off-gassing and foul odors as well as toxic chemicals, formaldehyde, and CFC's or VOC's that are harmful to you or the environment. Sometimes GiNO does have a faint odor but it is not toxic and does not come from chemicals.
We know buying a mattress can be stressful which is why we offer a 100-night sleep trail that starts the day GiNO is delivered to your door. It takes about 3 to 4 weeks for your body to fully adjust to a new mattress, especially if you've never owned a memory foam mattress before, so we recommend trying the mattress for at least 30 nights before you decide to return it. After 30 nights you'll be able to return the mattress up until the 100th night.
We understand it takes some time to adjust to a new mattress which is why we offer a 100 night sleep trial. After you receive your new GiNO we ask that you try it out for at least 30 nights before you make the decision to return it. After the 30th night you'll have up until the 100th night to make a return. If you do decide to return GiNO just send our customer service team an email. It's really as simple as that.
When you purchase a new mattress, especially if you made the transition to a memory foam mattress, we recommend that you try it out for at least 30 nights to give your body time to adjust. Over the course of time your body will begin to adjust and you'll get a better idea of how you like the mattress comfort.
You do not need to use a mattress protector in order to take advantage of the trial, however in order to keep your mattress clean over time we recommend using one.
Yes! GiNO comes with a 100 night sleep trial regardless if you purchase the mattress online or in a store. However, please keep in mind that when you purchase GiNO from an authorized retailer they will be the ones to answer any questions you have about the sleep trial and they will facilitate the return process.
We are committed to doing our part to help decrease the spread of COVID-19 which is why we are currently only offering contactless delivery with UPS and suspending our in-home white glove delivery option. Your GiNO mattress is also vacuum-packed as soon as it comes out of production which ensures the mattress remains clean and hygienic until it arrives on your doorstep.

GiNO's parent company, Magniflex, has also taken steps to show our appreciation and gratitude to healthcare workers, local communities, and government agencies on the front line working to contain the spread of the virus. We have worked to create disposable face masks that could be donated to the Meyer Hospital in Florence and also to the Forest Firefighting Surveillance Service (VAB - Vigilanza Antincendio Boschivo), which works hard to deliver groceries to the elderly and less fortunate.
GiNO is a much safter alternative to traditional memory foam mattresses. GiNO is made in an eco-friendly environment and all of our materials are non-toxic and Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified. We also use fire retardants that are silica-based with no chemical additives. Often times memory foam is expanded through the use of chemical solvents, which can be toxic, and it is poured and baked to created a closed cell structure that traps in heat and leaves you hot throughout the night. However, GiNO's foam is expanded using water based technology that creates and open cell structure making it more breathable and cooler than standard memory foam. We also let the foam rise naturally using water pressure and air which means no toxic chemicals are used throughout the process.

All GiNO products have received the highest Oeko-Tex rating of Standard 100 and are free from:
  • Formaldehyde
  • Toxic Chemicals
  • Off-gassing or Foul Odors
  • CFC's or VOC's that are harmful to you or the environment
No! GiNO is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified which means all of our products are free from:
  • Formaldehyde
  • Toxic Chemicals
  • Off-gassing or Foul Odors
  • CFC's or VOC's that are harmful to you or the environment
All of our fire retardants are silica-based with no chemical additives and Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified which means they are free from:
  • Formaldehyde
  • Toxic Chemicals
  • Off-gassing or Foul Odors
  • CFC's or VOC's that are harmful to you or the environment
All of our mattresses have passed the Standard for Flammability of Mattresses and Mattress Pads (16 CFR 1632) and also the Standard for the Flammability (Open Flame) of Mattress Sets (16 CFR 1633).
GiNO is 10 inches tall.
There are a lot of factors to consider when deciding what size bed you should buy. You should be sure to take into account how big your bedroom is and what size furniture can fit into it without feeling too cramped. Make sure you also think about how much walking distance you need to move around the room and each side of the bed as well as how bulky your furniture is. Just be sure to measure your space (maybe even twice) and take a look at the dimensions of your furniture and mattress before making your final decision.
Determining the size of bed you should get is a personal preference and all depends on how much space you have in your room. We would just recommend you measure the room and take into account the size of your furniture before making your final decision. But whatever size you do decide on, we're sure GiNO will fit in just fine!
A Twin mattress measures 39"" W x 75"" L while a Twin XL mattress measures 39"" W x 80"" L, so the difference is a simple 5"" of length.

If you want to purchase a Split King mattress you should order two Twin XL mattresses. Twin XL mattresses are also commonly used in dorm rooms at colleges. Regardless of what size mattress you need, we always recommend you measure your bed frame before placing an order.
Yes! GiNO can be made into any custom size and non-traditional shape, including mattresses for RVs, boats, planes, and other non-traditional locations. If you are interested in more details on a custom GiNO matress please contact our customer service team.
No, we do not recommend using GiNO on a sofa bed. Once opened GiNO is not intended to be folded again.
GiNO should be compatible with your Murphy bed but we would recommend checking on the available clearance for mattress thickness and weight requirements. GiNO is 10 inches thick so make sure that thickness fits inside your Murphy bed before purchasing. Weight is also important when deciding on a mattress for your Murphy bed, if the mattress is too light the may will not stay down but if it is too heavy the bed may risk not staying closed, it all depends on the mechanism.

Also, please keep in mind that storing any mattress in an upright position for a long period of time may impact the mattress' durability and cause more strain on the mattress.

GiNO mattress weights:
  • Twin – 37.5 lbs
  • Twin XL – 39.7 lbs
  • Full – 52.9 lbs
  • Queen – 61.7 lbs
  • King – 79.4 lbs
  • Cal King – 79.4 lbs
GiNO shouldn't take more than 8 minutes to fully expand. The corners may take closer to 24 hours to fully regain shape but the mattress will start to expand as soon as it's removed from the plastic wrapping.
We recommend using either a flat platform, a foundation with slats, or an adjustable base to fully support your GiNO mattress and to prevent the mattress from losing shape over time. A foundation with slats is ideal for support as well as ensuring mattress breathability and dissipation of excess moisture. A good foundation should have a central support rail in queen and king sizes, with slats no more than 2.5” wide and no more than 3” apart from each other.

We do not recommend using a box spring with your mattress as it does not offer the necessary support for the mattress and it will cause the mattress to lose shape over time. Using a box spring will also void the mattress warranty.
Of course! GiNO is able to adapt to the movements of an adjustable base just fine. And don't worry, using an adjustable base wil not cause GiNO to lose shape or alter the comfort of the mattress.
Of course! GiNO comes with a removable cover that can be delicately machine washed in cold water. Please keep in mind that excessive use of water, heat, or detergent may alter the shape, color, size, and comfort of the cover.

If you have specific questions about washing the cover we recommend reaching out to our customer service team first.
Currently GiNO's cover is not available for purchase. However, if you have any questions regarding damage to the cover please reach out to our customer service team and we will try to help you as much as possible.
Once expanded GiNO is not designed to be folded. We recommend keeping GiNO in the box until you reach his final destination and opening him there. If you are moving and plan to take an expanded GiNO with you then we would recommend using a mattress bag to help protect him.

We encourage you to open the mattress whenever you receive but if you are not ready to open GiNO as soon as it arrives then we would we recommend looking for the expiration date sticker on the outside of the box that gives the date it needs to be opened by. But don't worry - your mattress doesn't actually expire, that's just the date it needs to be expanded by.
Everyone has a different approach to mattress buying, so if you want to try GiNO before you purchase it we encourage you to visit one of our authorized retailers ahead of time. However, if there are no retailers in your area or if you want to wait to try GiNO in the comfort of your own home then purchasing GiNO online and using our 100-night trial might be the best choice for you.
The major difference between purchasing GiNO in store or online is the ability to try it before you buy it. When you visit one of our authorized retailers you'll be able to lie on GiNO and get a feel for the comfort. All GiNO mattresses are manufactured in a single factory outside of Florence, Italy so rest assured, no matter where you purchase GiNO from the quality will always be the same.

Purchasing directly from an authorized retailer also means that they will handle the 100 night sleep trial and return process. If you purchase directly from our website then you'll only work with us throughout these processes.

We recommend adding a mattress protector to protect your GiNO mattress from accidents, spills, stains, and keeping your GiNO mattress looking and feeling new.
The GiNO Mattress Protector is made from double-sided terry cotton for the summer and polyester for the winter.
For best results, we recommend you machine wash cold with tumble dry medium. Do not bleach or iron your mattress protector as this can break down the quality over time.
A mattress protector is a fitted sheet that creates a barrier between your mattress and the linens you use on it. It is used with the intention of preserving your mattress and to protect it from any damages. A mattress pad typically sits on top of your mattress and is used to change the comfort of the mattress.
We recommend every 2-3 months, but more if you have pets, have allergies, or if the protector has suffered any spills.
Not at all! Our mattress protectors do not trap heat while you sleep. It's purely used as a protective barrier to keep your GiNO mattress as clean and hygienic as possible.
