• Can you sleep directly on it without a sheet?
Yes.
The wool side is designed to be used without a sheet in order to fully benefit from thermoregulation and self-cleaning properties.
In summer, you can switch to the cotton side and add a sheet if that seems more practical to you.

• Is it suitable for children?
Yes,
perfectly.
Wool naturally regulates temperature, limits nighttime perspiration, and offers stable and reassuring comfort. It's ideal for children who get hot easily, sleep poorly, or sweat a lot.

• Should this mattress topper be washed?
No,
except in exceptional cases.
Regular ventilation is sufficient for maintenance.
Wool cleans itself naturally upon contact with oxygen.

• What to do in case of a stain?
Treat only the affected area:
- ambient water
-Ulrich gentle stain-removing soap (bile soap or Panama bark soap)
- flat drying
It is not necessary (nor recommended) to wash the entire mattress topper.

• Can it be machine washed?
No.
Machine washing would deform the wool and could cause shrinkage or internal felting.
Only exceptional hand washing is feasible.

• Can it be put in the tumble dryer?
Never. The heat and mechanical action would damage the wool and the cover.

• Can wool smell?
A slight natural odor may appear after ventilation or depending on the humidity of the room.
It disappears within a few hours in the open air.

• Does wool attract dust mites?
No.
Wool is antistatic and does not retain dust, making the environment unfavorable to dust mites. This is a major advantage compared to synthetic fibers.

• Can the mattress topper become deformed?
It may move slightly with use and flatten, like any natural filling.
Simply put it back in place during ventilation or, in the case of exceptional washing, distribute the wool evenly during drying.

• How often should it be aired?
Ideally:
once a week after a very hot or restless night, after an episode of humidity in the room.

• Is it suitable for people with sensitivities or allergies?
Yes.
Wool is naturally antibacterial and breathable.
The organic cotton of the cover is soft and non-irritating.

• Can I use it with a sheet?
It's possible, but it limits the effectiveness of the wool.
To benefit from its thermoregulatory properties, the wool side should remain exposed to the air. As an alternative, you can use a linen sheet, which also has thermoregulatory properties.
