I purchased a TemperPedic mattress at the Merrick store several weeks ago. At my request, I just received delivery only to find that I had a FROZEN mattress delivered today. Laying on this mattress is as good as laying on my tile floor at the moment. Upon delivery, the delivery person told me that it might defrost in 4-6 hours, but really I should expect it will take 1-2 days. Seriously....am I really talking about a mattress here? FROZEN! That's crazy. Do I need to use my hairdryer to try and thaw it out????? Had I been told, I might have arranged to have kept my old mattress until such time that my new mattress was at a temperature acceptable for me to sleep on.
I also purchased a mattress protector from the store. My bad. $219 later I found out I received what looks like a fitted sheet. Isn't the point of a mattress protector to protect the ENTIRE mattress? It needs to be zipped! I should have gone to Walmart and purchased one there for probably $40-$50. Lesson learned.
When I called the store to ask to speak to my salesperson, I was told he was on vacation for several weeks. Was that actually code for he no longer works there? Who knows. So I spoke to the person who answered the phone and inquired as to why I had a frozen mattress. He told me that this is what happens in cold weather and he was sorry that my salesperson didn't alert me to that fact prior to delivery....but he was on vacation. Soooo, what happens when your salesperson is on a long vacation, or may not actually work there any longer? NOTHING! No one calls you and there is no customer service.
Purchasing a mattress is a commodity item. They are all the same and price and customer service are the differentiating factors. Mattress Firm prices are no better than anyone else's and clearly their customer service stinks so I will NEVER purchase another item at their store again. There are certainly endless options for me to purchase a mattress someplace else. ...
Read moreAmazing Experience. I cannot say enough positive things about the experience I had with salesperson Elaine at Mattress Firm in Merrick, NY. My best friend was in desperate need of a new bed, and we decided to visit Mattress Firm to see what options they had. From the moment we walked in, Elaine greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel instantly at ease.. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about the products, but she also took the time to explain the different features and benefits of each bed. It was clear that she was passionate about her job and genuinely wanted to help us find the perfect bed. Elaine was also incredibly down to earth and easy to talk to. We left Mattress Firm that day feeling like we had not only found the perfect bed, but also made a new friend in Elaine. Mattress Firm is truly lucky to have such an amazing salesperson like her on their team. I would highly recommend Elaine to anyone in need of a new bed – her exceptional customer service and genuine care for her customers truly sets her apart from other salespeople. Thank you, Elaine, for making our experience at Mattress Firm one...
Read moreI went with my sister's husband to get him a mattress. We met Dylan and Randy. Mattress quickly chosen for him, based on price, firmness and an adjustable frame. Both Dylan and Randy were a wealth of information. Did not rush him. Showed him similar mattresses in his price point range. So he made a selection. Very satisfied. Also got him an interest free deferred payment plan. I have been wanting a new mattress for the last two years. I will just say life got in the way. So I am listening to all the selling points, sale price and benefits to your sleep pattern with these mattresses. So a no brainer. Randy helped me choose a mattress. I chose an adjustable tempurpedic medium firm mattress. Randy is the most knowledgeable, caring and efficient sales rep I have met in all my buying experience. He got me the best price and available discounts that would apply to the purchase. He has arranged delivery to my convenience and will deal with any problems. I really don't expect any. One of my best buying experiences for a large purchase ever. Need a mattress go to Merrick Mattress Firm. Thank you...
