Complete Liar's and Scammers
We bought a $3, 000.00 mattress from Sleepy's and were told it had a 100 % lifetime guarantee. The only clause in the warranty, we were told, was that if any stains got on the mattress it would void the warranty. I told the sales man that we could not buy it then because I have night sweats. He told us they sold a special mattress cover made specifically for that purpose because it was mostly couples our age that were buying the specific mattress we were looking at. He said the mattress cover was guaranteed against night sweats, and a whole list of other things.
Within one year the mattress began to fall apart so we filed a claim. Sleepy's called back and said the mattress was not in bad enough shape for them to replace but the box spring was defective and needed to be replaced. They wanted $91.00 to ship us a replacement box spring!!! We called them back and told them there was absolutely nothing wrong with the box spring at all but the mattress was shot. They sent the inspector out again. The inspector clearly admitted that he saw the mattress was damaged however now there was a small stain on the mattress. Sure enough Sleepy's called and said the warranty was void because of the mysterious stain. We told them that the stain was not there the first time he inspected the mattress and he took off the mattress protector and put it back on himself. We also explained that when we made the initial claim and the first batch of photos were taken there was no stain on the mattress. Sleepy's replied by saying that we needed to go to the company that made the mattress protector because night sweats should not have gone through it onto the mattress and the matress protector company (Metro Guardian) would replace the mattress under their guaranty. We called Metro Guardian and guess what! They said that despite what Sleepy's told us when we bought the mattress night sweats are not covered under their warranty and because I am having night sweats their warranty is void!!! WTH!!! How can any of this be legal??????

Awful Experience, hate my bed! Sleepy's unresponsive to customer's needs!
I purchased a Dr. Breus Signature series bed (a $2, 600 purchase!) with the expectation that this 20-year warranty bed would be the greatest purchase ever as per the sales person's "this bed's warranty is for 20 years, but it will last most the rest of your life." It was promoted that it would be like sleeping on clouds. The store model was very comfortable, my wife and I loved it. But the delivered bed is HORRIBLE!!! We've attempted to sleep in it for the past 9 days and it is UNBEARABLE! I wake up many times during the night having fallen into one of the many large holes that is just off-center of the middle of the bed, trying to get out of the bed is impossible! My wife and I sometimes hug each other, but we can't in this bed because the moment we get within a foot of each other we sink into a hole.
I spent A LOT of money on this stupid bed and it is the worst experience of my lifetime. We've gone back to the store on three separate occasions to look into why this bed is so bad and each time our sales guy says, "you just have to get use to it, you have to break it in, jump on it a little, it'll open up the cells so that it is more supportive, " bull crap! I HATE MY SLEEPY'S BED!!! Do not buy from Sleepy's EVER, they are used car sales men, nothing more. My sales guy has had me return to the store 3 times, I just had surgery on my knee and eye, it is very difficult to walk and be returning at all!
Every time he gives me a song and a dance about this and that, wastes my time, and makes false promises. I'm tired of sleeping poorly and having to exhaust myself trying to fix my situation. HELP! Dealing with SLEEPY'S is going to kill me.
We even asked a few of our friends to try the bed out and without saying anything they made the same complaints that we made, the bed is full of depressions, nothing supportive.

product quality
My partner and I went into sleepy's to buy a new bed. The salesman has us lay down on some "machine" to determine what type of bed we need. Which was all fine but I didn't really buy the whole concept. However, so the machine select a "green, sleep to live, 200 series" bed. We lay down on it and it is very comformtable, squishy, flexible etc. The kind of bed I like. I do not like firm mattresses at all. We negotitate a deal. Both matress, boxspring and bed frame ($500) cost $2400. We say we can't pay that much but eventually we arrive at $1800. As I'm signing to purchase the bed, the salesman goes over their return policy. He says I have 21 days to return the bed if I'm unsatisified but they will charge me $350 to do it, then I'd have to pay for the difference with the new bed. I said why would I return the bed?
We get everything the very next day. However, I lay on the bed and it is entirely different from the one in the store. It is so stiff. Seriously, like sleeping on a table.
I double check the tags and even go back into the store to double check my purchase. I verified that the bed in the store had the same tags as my bed. However, the bed is the store was exactly what I thought. Flexible, compfortable not stiff at all! I ask another sales person about it and they said that I need to give the matress springs time to adjust to my body. REally? Well it's been 3 weeks and now my back is killing me. This bed is so uncomfortable. Since it's after the 3 week mark, they won't return it. However, I can't afford to get a new bed. This was horrible.

Bad service, quality products
Incident = I had purchased a Simmons NXG in February 2010. In August my husband was complaining that he felt like he was rolling off the bed and in September I actually looked and noticed a bulge so large (for a bed under a year old). It was so unbearable he literally was sleeping in another room and I called to complain. I was told it would be 2 weeks until an inspector would call with an appt and we were called and the soonest appt was the middle of October. We waiting and that day the inspector (from BEDCHECK) cancelled and told me a person would be coming back from leave and servicing my account. I was actually never called and called Sleepy's 5 business days later to inform them of my lack of communication. I was then called by Vicky, inspector number 2. I had a date scheduled again and that day she cancelled. She rescheduled for a Saturday 1.5 weeks later. She no showed. I called sleepy's who not only gave me the run around but who blew me off and was told w
ell she was no longer working there and guy number 1 was going to be on my account. We are working on 2 months now. He comes the day before thanksgiving. Looks at the bed - tells me happening to all of my beds (again spending $2400) and that the defect was beginning on my side now.
I have to then call Sleepy's who tells me that my husband who literally is falling off the bed that the damage isn't bad enough and that the warrantee won't cover. Sleepy's will do a partial credit.
Between customer service, their third party inspections, and their lack of service...I would suggest that anyone, anywhere never purchase from this company. It has been a headache, heartache, and wasted thousands of dollars as well as work time for a true issue that is left unresolved.
Damage Resulting = Loss $2400 for a bed I have had for 9 months, plus not able to sleep with my husband for 2-3 months

Appalling service
I ordered a king size Fashion Group platform bed from Sleepy's about a year ago. It was of poor quality, and the slats have been gradually failing, and this past July, the whole bottom caved in. I called customer care and asked for a replacement. They said they could not replace the whole bed, but only the slats--which were a "special order" item and would take 3-4 weeks to arrive. This alone is absurd, as this was not a "custom" bed--it was a standard inventory item that they probably sell thousands of each year. There is no reason why slats should take a month to send.
I did not heard a word from Sleepy's since the re-order was made on July 27. I called today (Sept 20), and was told that the slats had still not arrived. I asked why, and the representative said he had "no idea" but guessed that they had arrived damaged and were sent back and re-ordered. I asked why I was not informed of this, and that I would have to wait another month to be able to sleep in my bed. He again said he had "no idea, " but that the warehouse "doesn't communicate" with other divisions in the company, and that the company has become "too large" and can't accommodate customer care issues.
He advised me to call 1-800-SLEEPYS, which I did, and was told the office was closed. I then went to the online customer care chat on the Sleepy's website, and explained the issue to a technician. He interrupted to tell me to call 1-800-SLEEPYS, which I reminded him was closed. I continued explaining my issue, and he said "Unfortunately I have no way to assist you -- I'm in the wrong department." (I am not making this up.) I asked him which department he WAS in, as this was supposed to be "customer care." He said again, "I can't help you with this issue."
I told him I would post the chat to the Better Business Bureau website and asked to speak to a supervisor. After a ten minute delay, he told me to (you guessed it) call 1-800-SLEEPYS. I reminded him a second time it was closed, but called anyway. I was told by the operator that customer care was closed, but demanded to speak with a supervisor and that a chat representative had told me to call. Mysteriously, they weren't "closed" after all, as my call was transferred. When I spoke to the supervisor, he was curt, offered the most insincere apology I have ever heard, and told me that all I could do was wait. He told me that the August arrival date I had originally been quoted was an "estimate, " and that the actual arrival date would be early October--over a month later, and a week later than the local store representative had told me just an hour earlier.
I asked why no one had called me to tell me the order had been delayed. He said he had no explanation. I asked why, if Sleepy's really cared about their customers, they would not just replace the whole bed instead of putting a customer through this kind of hassle. We're not talking about a $2, 000 mattress here. The bed frame was all of $350--half of which is probably a markup. It would have cost Sleepy's a measly couple hundred dollars to stand behind their product, but instead they chose to be cheap, dishonest, and rude. Their company is so large and inefficient that the warehouse, stores, and corporate headquarters do not communicate, and the customer gets lost. They sell poor quality products and make it difficult to impossible to get a replacement. They treat customers like they are expendable idiots.
I will never shop at Sleepy's again, and I will tell every single person I know to avoid the headache of dealing with them. and they can count on a complaint being filed with the BBB.

Breach of Contract
My wife and I purchased a mattress from a local Sleepy's retailer two weeks ago. The salesman, a young man called Stephen, told us that the mattress would be ready for delivery on Thursday, September 9, 2010. However, we could not promise to be at home, since my wife works, and I am a full-time student. Fortunately, Stephen told us that they would call us on Thursday, September 9, to discuss delivery.
Since Sleepy's offers a price guarantee, we conducted intensive research and found a "comparable" mattress (i.e., we called Sleepy's to find out which would be a comparable mattress) on http://Amazon.com. My wife called the salesperson in the local store on Monday, September 6 to talk about the price guarantee. Stephen finally called back after he had gotten approval for the price adjustment and offered us the difference in price. My wife told him to throw in the mattress pad, which was offered to us at $89.99 if claimed before delivery (i.e., contract states the $89.99 offer). Because we had still money to receive after receiving the mattress pad, Stephen told her to "stop by to get a credit". Everything was fine.
While we were expecting a call from Sleepy's on September 9, nothing happened . On Friday, September 10, I removed our old mattress in order to get it removed by the trash company. Unfortunately, we did not receive a call on Friday either. On Saturday, September 11, my wife called Sleepy's and talked to the customer department. They told her that our order was "put on hold". My wife then called the local Sleepy's store to inquire about our mattress. The Sleepy's representative told her he could not tell why Stephen had put a hold on the order. Furthermore, he did not apologize for the mistake and tried to patronize my wife, when she asked for the price difference/guarantee. He could not promise that we would get a credit for the price difference. Also, he stated her that we were not eligible to buy the mattress pad for $89.99, since the regular price is much higher (i.e., $119.99). My wife explained that the $89.99 was printed on the contract. although he scheduled the
delivery for the next day, we planned to drive to the store before delivery.
On Sunday, September 12, we drove to the local Sleepy's store to talk about the price guarantee BEFORE delivery.
The sales representative told us that he could not do anything about the price difference. Thus, we had to call corporate. He told us to go to the back of the store to make the phone call in order to not damage his business. With a smile he said that if we would not comply, he would have to call the police. My wife, who has a hearth condition was already shaking and nervous about the customer service and the behavior of the salesperson. She made the phone call and a young man (Ariel) told her that there is no comparable mattress and therefore no price guarantee. Any information received was wrong and void. Also he mentioned that we could not get the mattress pad for $89.99, even though it is printed on our invoice/order. Ariel yelled at my wife and she started crying in the store. The salesperson approached and she told him that she is a heart transplant patient, while she was shaking. We left the store because I was concerned about my wife's health. Outside, she continued
the phone call with another representative and asked whether we would receive the mattress and the mattress pad, since she works hard for her money and could not believe how Ariel treated her.
Sleepy's delivered the mattress on Sunday, and we are still waiting for the mattress pad. Additionally, Sleepy's id not price match, nor did they beat the competitor's price by 20% (which we would be eligible for!!!).
I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau about Sleepy's.

Mattress frame
I do believe and hope that company like Sleepy's should disappear soon.
I was moving to Canada, so purchased a mattress frame (Pentagon City where I lived), shipped the assembling boxes to a moving truck upon delivery. When arrived in Canada, I realized Sleepy's did not send me the right assembling boxes, which made the frame useless. I contacted the company in several different ways--call, internet, online chat with no use or help. I finally got a call in two weeks, but they asked me to contact a manufacturer providing me only the name of the manufacurer--Moriva with no tel number. They said I need to find their number on the internet on my own[!]. No such company I could find on the internet, of course.
I even suggested sending the boxes to Sleepys back to US, they say nothing will work unless the manufacurer sends me the right assembling box. They just keeps telling me that there is nothing they can do as I moved to Canada--no return or refund policy, too. If I ever used the mattress frame, I won't feel this bad. They are the one who sent me the wrong boxes from the begging in the US (not the manufacturer as this is a mistake related to logistics or order process, not the product defection), but now say that they can not do any at all, even if the manufacturer cannot help me. It's very disappointing and unlcuky, for my part, to have a transaction with such irresponsible company. I have no idea where I should find my consumer right--lost in border.

This is a rip-off much less bad customer relations
Sleepys sells mattresses on the internet and in local retail stores. They charge more if you purchase in the local store. Even shipping has a different charge, it is $69.99 on the internet and $89.99 at the store. One of the mattresses i purchased was $779 on the internet and $864 in the store. This is from the same company. They claimed to me that it was done to pay the salary of the salesperson. This is a rip-off much less bad customer relations.

Horrible Customer Service/Rude Saleslady
I wanted to alert your customer service department about a very rude sales associate in your Edgewater, MD store this evening (6/17/10). I do not recall if she ever told us her name, but she was short with us and very rude from the moment my husband and I walked through the door. Within about 30 seconds I had pretty much determined that I was not going to buy anything in the store based on how extremely rude she was to us. I actually continued to walk around and attempt to find the product that I had seen online and wanted to see in person, however, in the meantime she proceeded to tell me that they do not carry most of what you would find online and made no attempt at showing me anything in the store. We decided that instead of being left alone in the store with this hateful woman that we would go to the other mattress store in Edgewater. As we walked out, my husband said "Thank you for your time" and she didn't even bother to say goodbye...so much for a future sale! We ended up going to the competitor and within 30 minutes, not only did we have a great experience where they worked with us, our desired price point and had us test out various models...but we had also purchased a mattress and box spring. Just thought your company should be aware of people you employ, not only did she lose a sale for your company, she was just a rude, hateful human being. Thank you for your time.

After less than one year the mattress started to sag towards the edge making it almost impossible not to roll out of bed
I had bought a $3, 250 King Size Mattress from Sleepy’s two years ago. The Mattress warranty is supposed to be for 10 years as you would expect with an expensive mattress like that.
However after less than one year the mattress started to sag towards the edge making it almost impossible not to roll out of bed unless you constantly woke up and re-adjust your sleeping position. After two years it has become so bad (it sages from the center to the edge by 9 Inches) that I can no longer sleep on the mattress and had to move to our guest room.
I contacted Sleepy’s who sent out someone to test the mattress laying a string across the sides and without putting any weight on the mattress, then measuring the indent with a ruler. You can not tell if there are broken springs by that method. As expected this bogus test failed their requirements since it was done without a human body laying on it to replicate and show the real problem. If you want to measure the indentation on a pillow top this method may be fine, but not with a structural problem.
Thereafter I took photos of the mattress with my 180 lbs laying on it as it is supposed to be used showing the 9 Inch drop to one side and sent them along with a registered letter to their headquarters addressed to the president of the Sleepy’s with a 10 day ultimatum to respond, as expected the claim was rejected. Since neither Sleepy’s, nor the manufacturer are honoring their warranties, my only remaining options is to contact you and take both the store and the manufacturer to Small Claims Court, then I guarantee you I will get results. Stay tuned...
If more people would sue for these type of warranty breaches, maybe the stores and manufacturers would finally get their act together. Where is the Government if you need them?
