FAQ
Using the Snoozle
Product questions
How does the Snoozle really work?
A slide sheet is a clever cylinder made from a special fabric: soft and comfortable on the outside but incredibly slippery on the inside.
Think of it like lying inside a giant pillowcase with an extra opening. The slippery inner layers glide effortlessly with you as you turn in bed, making movement far smoother than on a regular sheet. Instead of needing to lift yourself off the mattress, you simply shift your weight and slide.
The Snoozle is a 4-way tubular slide sheet, so it moves with you both up and down as well as side to side.
How exactly do I use it?
Lay the Snoozle on your side of the bed, on top of your regular bed sheet, with the openings at the top and bottom. It should not go over the side of the bed. Lie on your back on top of the Snoozle, roughly between your shoulders and thighs. Slide from side to side with the aid of the Snoozle and adjust it after each roll if needed.
Is it like a hospital slide sheet?
Not really. Hospital slide sheets are designed for caregivers to move patients — the Snoozle is designed for you for long-term at-home use. It doesn't use slippery nylon, which traps heat. It's breathable and has just the right amount of friction — no excessive slipperiness. It's silent, handle-free, and distraction-free.
Will I slide off the bed?
No. The Snoozle is designed to glide but is not as slick as the nylon slide sheets used in hospitals. For safety, avoid placing it too close to the edge of your bed or letting it hang over. Never leave the Snoozle on the floor — the material can be slippery when stepped on. Full safety instructions ship with the product.
Will it make me hot and sweaty?
Not at all. The Snoozle uses breathable, lightweight materials that won't trap heat. Many customers say it even helps them stay cool by reducing friction during the night.
Does it make any noise?
No. Unlike some other slide sheets, the Snoozle makes no crinkly or rustling sounds when used.
Will it disturb my partner?
No. The Snoozle sits on your side of the bed, isn't bulky, and doesn't take up much space. In fact, your partner will benefit from you moving more quietly and smoothly.
Does it cover the whole mattress?
No. The Snoozle is 28.4 × 29.5 inches and sits on your side of the bed on top of your regular bed sheet.
What is it made of?
The main sheet is specially manufactured polyester. The edges are satin.
How do I wash it?
Wash up to 90 °F with a small amount of detergent. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Avoid hanging outside — UV rays make the fabric less slippery over time.
