I sent pictures to mattress firm and I got a reply back which basically said that they will not do anything because the fabric of the mattress, as well as a lot of other things, are not covered by the manufacturer's warranty. They will not repair or replace my less than one year old mattress that has defective workmanship on the fabric.

Just wanted to alert you all to read the warranty and not depend on the store to make good on defects not covered by the manufacturer's warranty unlike some other local stores have done for us. Read the warranty and learn that just the things that are most likely not to bread are covered and all else is not.

Also know that they, as well as some other mattress stores, get the manufacturers to name their mattresses differently for every chain store that sells them so that you cannot do a price comparison. They may offer to match or beat other prices but you will not find the same exact model name anywhere but in their store. I have run into this before with other items that have model numbers made especially for that store so that their "will match lowest price elsewhere" policy can never be used.

Anyway, before you plunk down a few grand for a mattress, you may want to avoid Mattress firm. Yes, they do have quick and efficient delivery and will give you a discount of their grossly marked up products, but they will not offer any value added for buying from them unlike some places I do business with. The workmanship of even their high end mattress has proven to be shoddy as far as the fabric is concerned for me. You can do better elsewhere. Seems that many of us learn afterwards how much cheaper mattresses are if we shop around and some of these places are just there to sell and not stand by their customers. They just want to sell and take no responsibility for what they sell. No value added to their customers.

Here is one website about Mattress firm that talks about similar problems with their expensively priced products and how they do little to nothing to their customers once the sale is made.

Does the rose being unembroidered cause any difference to the feel of the mattress when you put sheets on it and you watch television on it and do you notice it when you are right in the middle of NCIS?
