Frequently Asked Questions
Popular Questions
What is the mattress recycling fee?
In 2018 a law passed in California, Connecticut, and Rhode Island mandating all retailers to collect a small fee at check-out for each mattress & box foundation sold. These fees are intended to fund recycling efforts in each of these states. The Mattress Recycling Council (MRC), a non-profit organization established by the mattress industry, manages the program. The MRC utilizes a network of organizations to effectively pick up, transport and recycle old mattresses within the new government regulations. To learn more about the initiative, visit mattressrecyclingcouncil.org.

What are the benefits of a platform bed?
Because foundations and box springs are no longer necessary, platform beds are a cost-efficient alternative and require fewer accessories to make an attractive, comfortable sleep setup.
If you struggle with restless nights or squeaky springs, switching to the flatter profile of a platform bed may offer relaxing firmness. Slatted styles ventilate your mattress, reducing the buildup of allergens and mildew. Many platform bed frames also sit low to the ground, making a bed-skirt unnecessary and allowing children to climb up with ease.
What is a platform bed?
A platform bed is an alternative bed frame that features a supportive surface in the form of a solid, raised platform of slats that the mattress directly rests upon. It negates the need for a box spring like that of a traditional frame. The slats are usually built into the frame, but some beds come with a removable slatted rack. Platform beds are often sold without headboards and footboards, making it easy to customize any bed that accommodates attachment hardware. If you are always searching for more space, look for storage beds with drawers built into the platform or headboard shelving that can be attached to the platform.
Will your mattress protector make my mattress sleep hotter?
We specifically designed our mattresses so they would sleep cool, and we designed a protector that would do the same.
To ensure a cool, pleasant sleep environment, our team also chose a breathable film to keep airflow at a maximum. In the protector, the protective film is sandwiched by a polyester knit fabric — the same material used in premium athletic wear to keep people cool when they're breaking a sweat. It has an integrated spacer layer, so air flows through it easily to keep things nice and breezy.
What's the difference between a mattress protector and a mattress pad?
Purchasing a protector means you have the intention of preserving your investment by ensuring it won't be damaged. This is different than a pad, which generally implies changing the comfort of the bed. We leaned toward the former since we already love the feel of our mattresses!
How do I clean my Mid-Century Furniture?
We recommend cleaning with water and a soft cloth ONLY.
Do the drawers of the Mid-Century Dressers have any kind of chemical smell?
No, you should not be able to smell any lingering chemical scent. You may, however, smell the natural aromas that are inherent to wood.
Do the drawers of the Mid-Century Dressers come out completely?
Our drawer has a mechanism in order to prevent the drawer from falling. However, each can be fully removed with a little maneuvering.
Is there a center support for the Mid-Century Bed?

What is the weight limit the Mid-Century Bed can support?

What is the height of the Mid-Century Bed from the floor to the slats?
It is just over 12.5” from floor to slats.
Will my mattress move around on the Mid-Century Bed? It looks like there isn’t any mechanism keeping it in place.
No, your mattress will not move around on the Mid-Century Bed. Our mattress is designed to fit perfectly within the Mid-Century Bed. In addition, the bottom of the mattress will create friction with the Bed slats, to keep it in place.

Does Affirm do a credit check, and how does it impact my credit score?
Affirm does a “soft” credit check, which verifies the customer's identity but does not affect a customer’s credit score. Affirm's underwriting model does not use a hard credit check. There is no effect on a consumer's credit score when they apply for an Affirm loan.
How does Affirm approve borrowers for loans?
Affirm asks for a few pieces of personal information: Name, email address, mobile phone number, date of birth, and the last four digits of your social security number. Affirm then uses this information to verify your identity and make an instant loan decision. Loan decisions are based not only on your credit score, but also on several other data points. This means that you may be able to obtain financing from Affirm even if don’t have an extensive credit history.
Why was I prompted to enter my income?
Affirm may sometimes need more information about your finances and your ability to repay in order to make a credit decision. Your income gives Affirm additional insight into your ability to repay.
Why was I asked to verify my identity?
If Affirm has difficulty confirming your identity, you may need to provide more information. Affirm uses modern technology to confirm your identity, including verifying your address or full SSN, or requesting a photo of your ID. Affirm takes these steps, in some cases, to counter fraud and provide the most accurate credit decision they can.
Why was I denied financing by Affirm?
The merchant has no information regarding a customer's financing denial. Affirm strives to offer all credit-worthy applicants financing with Affirm, but isn’t able to offer credit in every case. Affirm will send you an email with more details about its decision. Unfortunately, Affirm’s decision is final.
Will I see how much interest I am paying prior to accepting my loan?
Yes! Affirm works hard to be completely transparent. You’ll see the amount of interest you’ll owe on the terms page and again on the loan confirmation page. If you pay off your loan early, you’ll receive a rebate for any interest that hasn’t yet accrued.
Why was I prompted for a down payment?
Affirm isn’t always able to offer credit for the full amount you request. In these cases, Affirm asks you to make a down payment with a debit card for the remainder of your purchase. The down payment amount can’t be changed and must be made upon confirming your loan and before the loan offer expires.
Why was my bank not listed?
Although Affirm is continually adding support for additional banks, they aren’t able to connect to every bank at the present time. We apologize for the inconvenience. If you’re unable to connect your bank, you’ll need to complete your purchase with another payment method.
Why was I prompted for my checking account?
Affirm may sometimes need more information about your finances and your ability to repay in order to make a credit decision. If you are prompted to link your checking account and would like to proceed, please provide the login information for your online bank account. Affirm does not store your online login credentials—they are transmitted securely to your bank.
If Affirm asks you to link your checking account, Affirm won’t be able to offer you credit if:
1) Your bank is not listed
2) You choose not to link your checking account
3) You don’t use online banking
4) The username and/or password you provide is incorrect
5) You're unable to successfully connect your checking account
How is interest on an Affirm loan calculated?
Affirm calculates the annual percentage rate (APR) of a loan using simple interest, which equals the rate multiplied by the loan amount and by the number of months the loan is outstanding.
This model differs from compound interest, in which the interest expense is calculated on the loan amount and the accumulated interest on the loan from previous periods. Think about compound interest as “interest on interest,” which can increase the loan amount. Credit cards, for example, use compound interest to calculate the interest expense on outstanding credit card debt.
Why is my Affirm interest rate so high?
When Affirm determines your annual percentage rate (APR), it evaluates a number of factors, including your credit score and other data about you. If you finance future purchases with Affirm, you may be eligible for a lower APR depending on your financial situation at the time of purchase.
This APR calculator will give you an idea of how much interest you actually pay: https://www.affirm.com/apr-calculator/
When you consider Affirm financing, carefully evaluate the loan terms that Affirm offers you and determine whether the monthly payments fit your budget.
Why can't customers outside the U.S. use Affirm?
Affirm is available only to shoppers residing in the United States. Affirm hopes to expand its services to customers outside the U.S. in the future.
If I return an item, how do refunds work?
A refund posts to your Affirm account if we process your refund request. In the event that we issue you store credit instead of a refund, you are still responsible for paying off your Affirm loan.
If you have already made loan payments or a down payment, Affirm issues a refund credit to the bank account or debit card that you used to make the payments.
How do I make my payments?
Before each payment is due, Affirm sends you an email or SMS reminder with the installment amount that is coming due and the due date. You have the option to sign up for autopay, so you don’t risk missing a payment.
Follow these steps to make a payment:
- Go to www.affirm.com/account.
- Enter your mobile phone number. Affirm sends a personalized security PIN to your phone.
- Enter this security PIN into the form on the next page and click Sign in.
- After you sign in, a list of your loans appears, with payments that are coming due. Click the loan payment you would like to make.
- Make a payment using a debit card or ACH bank transfer.
Am I able to obtain a refund after my purchase?
Refunds can be processed up to 365 days from the date your order is placed.
Can I amend my order after my purchase has been processed? Can I be approved for a higher loan amount if my purchase amount increases?
You cannot edit your order after you have confirmed your loan. If you want to add items to your purchase, apply for another loan with Affirm or use a different payment method.
How long does it take to get my money back in the event of a return?
A refund credit appears in your account within three to ten business days, depending on your bank’s processing time.
Setup
Do I need a box spring with a platform bed?
Because foundations and box springs are no longer necessary, platform beds are a cost-efficient alternative and require fewer accessories to make an attractive, comfortable sleep setup.
If you struggle with restless nights or squeaky springs, switching to the flatter profile of a platform bed may offer relaxing firmness. Slatted styles ventilate your mattress, reducing the buildup of allergens and mildew. Many platform bed frames also sit low to the ground, making a bed-skirt unnecessary and allowing children to climb up with ease.
What kind of pillow cases can I use?
100% cotton, open-ended pillowcases. Using another fabric blend or material may take away the cooling effect of the pillow. Do not use pillow protectors since they will take away the cooling effect of the pillow. Pillow protectors are also not needed since the OkiPillow is washable and dryable.
How do I clean my OkiPillow?
Cleaning the pillow is easy:
Step 1: Pretreat Obvious Stains with stain remover or Heavy Duty HE Laundry Detergent. Work in the stain remover with a soft brush and allow to work for at least fifteen minutes before washing the entire pillow.
Step 2: Unzip the pillow cover and remove the inner pillow filling.
Step 3: Place both in the washing machine and wash with cool water and a mild detergent (1 or 2 teaspoons) on the gentle cycle. Run the rinse cycle twice.
Step 4: Fluff the pillow before placing into the dryer. Tumble dry low to medium heat with dryer balls (or clean tennis balls).
Do I need to fluff the OkiPillow?
Yes, it’s best to fluff your pillow often (daily, if possible) to keep it looking and feeling fresh. Our pillow’s fill is specifically designed so that it can be revived and returned to its original puffiness with just a quick fluff.
How do I care for my OkiOki Mattress Protector?
We recommend washing the mattress protector before using it for the best fit on your bed. Please note this could take multiple washes.
For best results, we recommend you machine wash on warm and tumble dry low. It will be tempting to wash and dry on hot — resist this urge! Heat drying could cause delamination and shrinkage. We want your protector to last as long as possible. We do not recommend dry-cleaning the mattress protector.
Do I need tools to put the Mid-Century Furniture together?
All of the tools required for furniture assembly are provided within your OkiOki box.
Does the furniture require assembly?
Minimal assembly is required for the Nightstand, 3 Drawer, and 5 Drawer Dresser. Our Bed requires 2 adults for assembly.
Do I need a box spring or foundation with the Mid-Century Bed?
Nope. All you need is a mattress!
Why do OkiOki mattresses need a foundation?
Every mattress requires a system that supports the entire underside of the mattress. A foundation is only required with a metal bed frame. Alternatively, you could purchase a bed frame with cross-slats that would support your mattress.
(Foundation/Furniture) How do I know which bed setup is best for me?
Both are great options. This comes down to personal preference!
Can I put my mattress directly on the Metal Bed Frame?
No, the mattress requires additional support. In order to properly use the metal frame, a Box Foundation is also required. OkiOki currently offers a Box Foundation that pairs perfectly with this Metal Bed Frame.
Does the mattress need a box spring?
You do not need to use a box spring, but you will need to use some sort of foundation. If you are not using a box spring you will need to use a bed with cross-slats, a bunkie board, or anything that will serve as a foundation.
How do I get rid of my old mattress?
There are a few options that can be used in order to get rid of an old mattress. The most cost-effective option is a charitable organization such as Habitat for Humanity or the Salvation Army. This could take up to a week but is free! Another option is recycling companies, which should be quicker but more expensive. A few examples are 1-800-GOT-JUNK, ERS Hauling Solutions, Renewable Recycling, Junk King, and LoadUp.
Does an OkiOki mattress off-gas?
Although there may be a brief “new mattress” smell, all of our foams are non-toxic and will not give off a strong off-gassing smell. If there is a faint smell, the odor should dissipate within a few days.
Do I need to keep my OkiOki box?
Nope! Once your mattress has been removed, you no longer need your box.
Can I use an adjustable base?
You can! Our mattresses are designed to work with a variety of bed frames including an adjustable base.
How long until I can sleep on my OkiOki mattress?
Although you can sleep on your OkiOki mattress right away, it could take up to 48 hours for the mattress to fully expand. Don't be alarmed if it feels too firm at first, it can take up to a month for the fabric to loosen, allowing you to feel your mattress's intended softness.
How long can my OkiOki mattress stay in the box?
We recommend opening the mattress within 30 days of receiving the order.
How do I set up my OkiOki mattress?
Place your new OkiOki mattress on your bed frame, then, use your OkiOki opener to cut the plastic packaging around your mattress. Lay the mattress out flat on your bed frame and wait for it to expand. It may take up to 48 hours to reach its full height but you can sleep on your new mattress right away.
