Quiz

Mattress or foundation

Five questions from CPSC 16 CFR 1633.2. The mattress is the sleep surface. A box-spring is one kind of support under that surface. A platform deck can do the box-spring's job.

What should you match first in an Orlando room?

Open-flame rules under part 1633 include the foundation when the manufacturer labels the mattress for sale with that foundation. Guest rooms off the pool, a primary on afternoon air-conditioning, a spare that used to be an office: the matching question is the support that is already there. Humidity, sizes, and families live on the mattress guide. This quiz does not sell a mattress set as a medical claim.

The lecture is Mattress versus box-spring. Guest linens sit on the guest-room kit.
