Mattress Warehouse Sale

[avk]

I saw some signs while driving after leaving the Brick Mattress Store near Dufferin and Lawrence and saw a sign for a Mattress Warehouse sale on Tycos Dr. so I checked it out.

The Brick quoted me $450 for a double size mattress set which was on sale. I checked out the sale and they had a comparable mattress for $360 which was their regular going price.

They had mattresses starting at $90 for twins and goes up from there.


They gave me a flyer with their info. Checked out the website www.GiantMattressSale.com. Amateur website but it does the job. Has a list of some of the products they sell, their contact infomation, directions and hours of operation.

Not a real showroom but a make shift one in the warehouse after all it is a warehouse sale. If you can't strap the mattress to the car they offer delivery. Not free but still minimal $25.

Address: 140 Tycos Dr in Toronto

sleep country Spanks the brick and just about every mattress place. They negotiate and have the book to match your exact bed from other stores. They have insane room to move in dollars I've bought 3 beds from them and nobody could touch the price.

I agree, I just purchased a matress and box spring from Sleep Country over the weekend. After quotes from several stores including The Brick, nothing could compare.

Sleep Country all the way!

Sleep Country will gladly match and beat any competitors price. The price on the tag has a LOT of room for movement, by that I mean you can easily get that price cut in half.

The people who sell a aattress are as bad/ if not worse than shady used car salesmen. Not saying these people from GiantMattressSale.com are bad but the thing you have to know about buying a mattress is that the whole industry is shady.

The mattress manufactures will make identical products for all the stores (Brick, Sleep Country Canada, Mattress Mart, etc...) but they each have a different name for each store. That way you can't comparison shop between stores and the "price match guarantee" is worthless (since no other store has "the same bed").

Virtually every bit of information you're told is bunk: whether it be "scientific" claims, or the number of coils the bed is made of (more coils isn't necessarily better since they can be made of thinner wire which won't provide additional firmness) and even the price itself (how can the mattress ALWAYS be on sale every week? That's not a sale... that's marketing.)

When it comes to buying a mattress the only advice is to spend a decent amount of time actually testing it out to discover if it is comfortable for you.

Matt2 is right. that's why a place like sleep country is useful since they can tell you this bed x is the same as bed z at the brick. we just call it bed x. My first bed from them was 3500 at Sears and I paid 1400 tax in from Sleep Country. delivered, three pillows. one bed protector thing and a sheet set.

a number of years later, (it was a sealy) the bed had a mfg defect and required warranty replacement. Sleep country originally offered me whatever bed they sold at that price point. Not the high end bed I'd gotten a deal on. I argued and they finally offered me the comparable current year version. Given it was a queen and my gf morphs from a 110lb stick into a 800lb cartwheeling ninja.. I had to upgrade to a king so I could simply get a decent nights sleep... without being attacked. Let me tell you people. those extra 16inches of space were sufficient to start stuffing a comforter between us. I call it the Demilitarized Zone, and thank god for it. lol.

Anyways. Sleep Country allowed me to allocate the dollars spent originally against a new purchase from them in the store, so i went back to the original store and haggled a sick deal for a kingsize of their top model sealy. Sterns and Foster was higher up but we're talking nutty money and diminishing returns etc etc.

fyi a nightmare story. A buddy of mine got a simmons? mattress from Leons. It failed. Warranty replacement required sending the bed away... he was to be bedless for like 6weeks. He simply bought a new one and sold me his warranty replacement when it arrived. Which I used for a couple months and gave away.

At some point those mattress prices are just not justifiable. I bought a mattress from Simply Elegant... so far so good. It was ~$400 and it is good enough. In any case the mattress will last you 7-10 years and will need to be replaced.
I think when buying a mattress not to concentrate on price, but on comfort - firm, soft, medium. Try it out. The mattress sales are always on at every store. I also found that at first I thought my mattress is too hard (it is medium firm), but after a month or so, both the mattress and your body adjust.
