Abstract
A device is disclosed for facilitating rotation of a mattress. In order to facilitate rotation, an expandable volume creates an air cushion between the mattress and the box spring under the influence of an air supply which lifts the mattress and allows the mattress to be rotated. One or more covers, which may include a slick surface, may be provided that incorporate or operate in conjunction with the expandable volume. In some examples, the expandable volume and/or the slick surface may be incorporated into the mattress, or box spring or platform.
