Hey guys, just thought I'd let you all know that the online store for The Mattress & Sleep Company has been up and running for a little while now, and I'd be really grateful to hear some feedback from you all on it.

If you need anything, let me know and I'll be sure to get you a better deal through me.

Thanks for any feedback

 

Easy to navigate, simply designed and no broken links as far as I know. I would put more into the "wow" factor, as in overall design but since this is a online store, it's very good.

 

My sentiments exactly.

Looks good, very functional (most important) but lacking in a little bit of aesthetics. Nuthin you can't work on now that its' up and running! I'm not overly impressed with my mattress right now but it's like 2 months old. When I've finally had enough I'll be coming your way.

 

I need a new pillow! I'm more of a firm pillow person. recommendations?

 

nice!
congrats dylan!

 

go with wool if you want firm with some give (wool pillows are like a really firm, overstuffed version of a high quality down pillow, but they dont flatten like down)

or, go solid latex wrapped in wool if you like a firm feel that doesn't have much give

 

What don't you like about it? If it's firmer or more basic, sometimes adding a decent quality topper made out of latex or memory foam (depending on your preference) can make enough of a difference that you might actually keep it for a little longer... and then you can always move the topper over to a better bed later on, too.

I'm actually finding more and more people these days buying a high quality firm bed and then adding natura toppers to customize the comfort... they'll do maybe a "basic" sealy posturepedic without a pillowtop and then add a latex topper and a wool mattress pad, or something along those lines

 

nice site...same feedback as above.

best of luck!

 

You might be right! It's medium firm to firm, but maybe some high quality topper would help! The thing is, I didn't buy a high quality bed, I did a serious rush job when moving out here and did a 2 day sweep through Ikea and equipped basically my entire place. I know, I know, pretty weak, but not knowing how long I'm planning to be here I wanted to buy things that were cost-effective enough that I wouldn't be upset parting with them for cheap (or nothing) when the time comes.

My mattress is a (hold your breath) Ikea mattress. Grey one, second most firm they had. I can always pretty much pass out whereever necessary, whether it's a floor, car, bathtub, so it's not the worst thing in the world, by any means, I am just starting to appreciate the few hours of sleep I actually get and would like to maximize them.

I'll browse around your site and see if there's anything that catches my eye to avoid dropping $1K+ on a new mattress.

 

What do you think of those forming pillows, the tempur-pedic type ones? Are they junk? My pillows are annoying me, nice goosedown ones, but no support.
