I have not noticed any black spots on ours. What do you mean by "inside?" Did you slice it open or something?

Mine has these spots visible underneath the outer cover. According to the manufacturer, this is from the natural cotton fibers.

Mine have never left black marks, it's possible it is the pair of legs that came with your trampoline. Maybe you can ask if they can be replaced.

Hi Kartoid,A thought just occurred to me. Maybe you could contact a professional in-home cleaner such as Coit, who might have experience with how best to rid your mattress of mold. It might be less expensive then the freight costs for returning the mattress if this problem is in fact covered under warranty. Just a thought. Whatever you decide to do I wish you the best in finding a solution.

U might want to check an additive that is put in paint to fight mold or mildew. This paint might work for your application but why spend $30 + when it only comes in black. U could purchase various other colors with an anti mold agent for half the price.

Mine does the same thing. You can't return it to the store. There are signs all over it that say(DO NOT RETURN TO STORE. CONTACT so and so #, blah,blah,blah). I have mold all over mine now and am in the process of trying to get it clean, but I think my mold problem is on the inside, too because of the water that got caught in those areas of the inside. Wish me luck cause I have a feeling this is not gonna work and I'm not storing a moldy slide all winter. I would call the manufacturer while you still have time!!!!!!!!!!

Place it under the mattress cover. This is still a good way to protect your mattress and have a comfortable separation between between to the topper/mattress and your sheets. I put a thin mattress pad cover over the mattress and topper combination and then a very plush one over the whole ball of wax. I couldn't be happier!

Sorry, I didn't keep the mattress in my house long enough to be able to comment in this. The mattress was covered in mold when I got it and I had to get it out of my house immediately

I have changed sheets since having my cover. I also have washed the cover. I am still battling the problem but don't see evidence of the bugs on the mattress but do see them on sheets.

Yes this is mold. I cleaned/soaked it almost weekly, with bleach. And if I had energy, I would remove the bump and clean underneath.

We make all of our bags with a 2.2 mil NON VENTED ( which means no holes so it's water, dust and debris proof) Recycled Plastic with Bio Degradable and Anti Mold Additives. To date, we are the thickest plastic mattress cover made in America and since we use a non slip process ( this is a very cool application), it allows the bag to easily slide on and pull tight without ripping. It's non crinkling or crackling, so it's ideal to seal and then dress the bed without effecting the feel when your sleeping. If you have any other questions, just let us know and we're here to help you!! Thanks! Spence

I've never had a problem with mold. At first I was making sure to wash the cover weekly but even now I don't and no problems. I also usually have my baby on a blanket over the cover not sure if that makes a difference and I also put a receiving blanket behind where her head lays so its not too hard. I love this sleeper and so doesn't my baby. I wish I had this since the day we brought her home from the hospital! I forgot to mention I got this when she was around a month old and she is now 4 1/2 months old.

I've had K&H; Cool Beds for at least 10 years. I have never seen any mold. I keep mine (I have 2) clean with mild soap and water. My dogs LOVE this bed.....they use it all year round!

The directions that came with it only mention vinyl--the directions also say "pinholes" and punctures can be sealed without a patch--just use a drop of the adhesive. I'm not an expert, but since my patch is working great and seems really strong, I would go ahead and use this material on the fabric side of the mattress. It's better than spending more money for a new air mattress.

I too found the mattress included completely substandard, scary thin, I was afraid my son may develop flat head syndrome. I had a custom mattress and fitted sheets made by this company. They ask you to send in a template so I used the old mattress and traced it out on newspaper. It came out perfect and worked out great for us. The company is called aBaby.com

Yes, "Black Mold" is a general description for various molds that are black in color. Some can make you very ill.
