Where did you buy your mattress?

It will be a while before we get a new one, but DH and I are in such desperate need of a new mattress I am thinking at least starting to look will help. I have no idea where to begin though! Is it better to go to a department store or a mattress-specific type place?

Our mattress we have now makes us feel so awful. It is about 6 years old and I remember when we bought never being "sure." I struggle making that big of a decision based on laying awkwardly in the middle of a store for 2 minutes...This time I want to make sure we really get something good.

Re: Where did you buy your mattress?

  • We bought one a few months ago from Costco.com.  I found it's equivalent at Mattress Firm and went and tried it out there.  It was about $400 less at Costco.

  • Our master mattress is from Mattress Firm but our guest room is from Sam's.  My family (parents, brother) typically get our mattresses at Sam's and they have always been great.

  • Our new Tempurpedic is from Mattress Firm.  We were happy with them but we didn't price shop much since pricing on Tempurpedics should be the same across the board.  Would have looked around more if we weren't looking at this particular mattress.

  • Mattress Giant
  • We looked everywhere about a year ago and Mattress Firm really stood out.  They were very clean (I was not about to lay on the visibly dirty mattresses at Mattress Giant 610W), extremely knowledgeable without being pushy, and they have a 100 day guarantee that you can exchange your mattress if you're unhappy with it.  They also have good sales and were willing to negotiate below the sale price (at least the one on Post Oak and Westheimer was).

  • We bought a Stearns and Foster set from Matress Firm earlier this year.
  • Mattress Expo next to BB&B/Best Buy in The Woodlands.  Awesome service and best prices we could find.  

     

    I should say, we have a Simmons Beautyrest with the Visco foam on top (it's s smooth top - no pillow top) and we love it!

     

  • We didn't shop around much, either - we got one at Gallery Furniture b/c we had just bought a king bed and needed one quickly.  I think it's a Sealy w/pillowtop?  We've liked it.  I have heard loads of good things about Tempurpedic - i just can't get myself to pay that much.  But I don't have problems with our mattress, either - so that's why I can't justify it. 
  • Thanks!
