I bought a high-end Stearns and Foster 15+ years ago from a department store and it's about due for a replacement. It was expensive and worth it.
Now it seems the market is all about overpriced mattress stores with sleazy salesmen or start-ups selling fabric covered foam.
- TheKarateKid 9y agoAgreed. I just bought mine the other week from Macy's where every mattress was "on sale" for almost half of the list price. Then they took another 10% off for a Labor Day sale. The $900 mattress I bought was the same quality as all the other ones I tried for around that price in other stores - each of which had their own ridiculous list price and sale. MattressFirm was even worse. They wanted over $1000 for mattresses that felt like junk and were $500 elsewhere. Sleepy's was great before they were bought by them.
- spaceisballer 9y agoI recently bought the same brand after the Leesa didn’t work out. Tried out a lot of beds and the Sterns and Foster is working out, seemed too pricey but it’s fine. There just doesn’t seem to be enough support for me in an all foam mattress. It’s a bummer because going to a mattress store is a complete and utter hassle, just like car salespeople. They use the same tactics and I want none of it. And you hear the sales people say thing like “Well beds haven’t changed much however the sleep science has come a long way.” What the hell are you talking about. So I went in the store, tested out mattresses and then left and priced them online. Called them back and beat them up on the price and bought it.
