3 years after I bought my previous mattress which delivered its moneys worth, me & my wife decided to get another mattress. Since we both have sensitive backs we decided to purchase something that would last longer than 3 years. We went to Sleepys after trying out a few mattresses we short listed a Simons mattress for $700 with a 10 year warranty & Sealy mattress for $450 with 3 year warranty. We really liked the Simons for its feel but were hesitant because of the price tag. The salesman was all supportive of the pricier offering & said that the extra money is worth it as you will get a 10 year warranty & it will stay nice & firm for a very long time.

We order it & it arrives promptly on Jan 11th. Within few weeks the mattress started to sag & we started getting back aches. The sag was as much as the 3 yr old mattress that I owned prior to this. All this within a month of purchase!!

On Feb 15th I call Sleepys & logged a complaint & I was told an inspector would come over & take a look. After numerous calls back & forth with the inspection company they show up on March 7th. I called Sleepys on March 17th & they told me that my clain is denied as the sag is not 1.5 inches. I insist that the sag is getting worse by the day & our backs are aching beyond control & I was told I can get a second opinion, but only 60 days AFTER the initial inspection! I told them that I dont want a refund, just another mattress as the sag is really hurting our backs. I was denied even that.

This is a total rip off for a mattress that they claim to have a 10 year warranty on. They sold me a defective mattress & refuse to honor their warranty.

I am going to have to consult a lawyer regarding this.

NEVER EVER WILL I BUY FROM THEM AGAIN & I WILL MAKE SURE THAT I CONVINCE WHOEVER I KNOW TO NOT BUY FROM THEM.

After I contacted the NJ department of consumer affairs, Sleepys offered me an in store credit for the purchase price for my mattress. The lady who sent the offer was very nice & actually gave me a new mattress at the same discounted rate as the previous mattress which turned out to be the same price so I didn't have to pay anything, all I had to do was to pay for the box spring. Best of all, they asked me to keep the old mattress. Been a few months since I have had the new mattress & I am quite happy with it.

I have had a problem almost identical to yours please let me know what lawyer you have used as I would like to sue them as well. My mattress was almost 3,000.00 and I have been sleeping for months on a blow up mattress in the living room. They sent an inspector that said that I did not qualify for a refund as well. Please contact me with any info you get. I am filing with NJ's better business and I know that they have already gotten lawsuits. Thanks my name is melissa
