Have you ever purchased a mattress online?

18,308 38,677 May 2, 2017 at 10:48 PM
And if so, how's that working for you? Sleep like a baby? Want to punch a baby?

I've been to several B&M stores here in the last few days and kinda/sorta narrowed it down but of course they all have different names even if it's the same mattress. Annoyed

They are soooo much cheaper online. But are they as good?

Are you looking for a traditional inner spring mattress? Memory foam? etc... The online sellers that I hear about the most are foam mattresses.

I bought our last mattress online. I still prefer an old-fashioned inner spring. Went with a W Hotels mattress (whoever makes it) when there was a great deal a few years ago. I like it but don't love it.

As far as sleeping like a baby, does soiling the bed count? I hope so.

Twice, a regular inner-spring one for my bed, and a Zinus foam one for my kid a few weeks ago.
No regrets.

i ordered from US mattress twice. first time i couldn't get it delivered so i canceled it. second time they screwed up and it took 3 months to get. so i wouldn't recommend them. if you look at one of the past sales threads, my story is probably posted in there.

Inner spring, is that the same as "coil"? If so, yes, we prefer that. I LOATHE memory foam!

No regrets.
Where did you buy the inner spring?

Sure, no problem. Just give me a minute to move the Lamborghini Veneno so the delivery guy can get to the door. Stick Out Tongue

Which forum?

I got it from US Mattress, I guess dayv and I had completely different experiences, as mine went quite smoothly.

Twice from Wayfair. Shipping is speedy and the price was better. Highly recommend. BTW, memory foam allegedly causes all sorts of health problems and NASA stopped using it. That's the word on the net. You never know. I avoid it.
