Mattresses as Gifts - Registration Still Matters

Mattresses are common housewarming and wedding gifts, and direct-to-consumer brands are frequently purchased as gifts. When a mattress is registered to the gift-giver, all recall notices and warranty communications go to someone who is not sleeping on the mattress and will likely not remember the purchase details years later when a claim arises.

Register the mattress in your name immediately. The warranty period starts from the purchase date regardless of when you register - early registration simply ensures your contact information is on file.

• Warranty notifications go to the registered owner - make sure that is you
• Warranty period starts from purchase date, not registration date
• No gift receipt required - serial number is sufficient

How to Register a Gifted Mattress

Find the serial number on the white law tag on the side of the mattress near the foot. Visit the brand's registration portal or Bawte. Register with your name, email, and the approximate purchase date (the gift-giver can provide this). No gift receipt required.

For DTC brands where the gift-giver's email may be auto-registered, contact brand support with the serial number to request a transfer to your contact information.

• Serial number on law tag, mattress side near foot
• Register with your name and email
• Gift-giver can provide purchase date - no receipt needed
• Request transfer if DTC brand auto-registered to gift-giver

The Value of Long-Term Registration

A mattress warranty claim typically arises years into ownership - when sagging develops or structural components fail. Registering in your name now ensures that when that claim arises in year 7 or year 12, your serial number and contact information are already on file. The alternative is trying to track down a gift-giver years later for their purchase documentation.
