Not only that, but traditional mattress shops still use some of the highest pressure sales tactics I've experienced. It only takes once to make you never want to set foot in one again.
- svachalek 5y agoIt's interesting how entire industries take on a personality. Like, there's plenty of competition or seems to be, and yet pretty much any mattress store you go into feels the same. And if I take my car to a body shop, pretty much any body shop, I almost feel like I need to call the police.

- snegu 5y agoI actually recently bought a mattress at a local shop for my son, and it was one of the nicest shopping experiences I've had. He kept trying to guide me to the cheaper options because that's all a kid needs. He also had a bunch of religious stuff around, so I think he felt it was part of his Christian mission to give people fair treatment. Either way, next time I need a mattress I will go there.
