Why Buying a Mattress Online is Better Than You Think

by Janis Blonde

Buying mattresses from a brick and mortar store is so last decade.  

There a number of common concerns that pop up when people are thinking about investing in a new mattress, and why they think they need to shop in a brick and mortar, versus online.  

We’re here to clear up some of those questions and concerns, and make you feel comfortable in making the right decision for you next mattress.  

Buying a mattress online

Concern #1: Buying a Mattress is Something You Need to Do in a Store.

This is only true for a very small percentage of the market. Folks with chornic pain or limited mobility may need specialty designed beds for their condition.

Luxury hotels and resorts owners report that a good quality mattress can deliver a quality level of sleep to the majority of vacationers. So yes, most of us are just fine on a good quality bed. 

Research from the Canadian sleep council confirms that folks shopping in a retail store were more likely to select the wrong mattress than online. The reason stems from two factors:

  1. Laying down for 10 mins only indicates initial feeling and has almost no relation to the 8 hour phases of actual subconscious sleep.
  2. In store sales persons are offen incentivized to sell one particular brand over another (spiffs) or to upsell to higher priced beds where commissions are greater.

Concern #4: Buying a Luxury Mattress is Only Possible Full-Sized. It’s Only the Bargain Mattresses That you Find Compressed and Delivered by Courier.

To some degree, yes. But we think that's more about the maturity of the marketplace. Meaning the brands that got first traction were entry level brands where price was a strong driver. 

As the BnB market grew, the economic advantage applied to the luxury products too. In fact, when you compare the savings, the high margins of the boutique store were an easy target.  

From a practical point, If the manufacture is looking to use inferior ingredients due to the compression process, they wouldn't bounce back.
