Local manufacturers/retailers

For anyone in the Cleveland/Akron area who wants to try some Amish-made mattresses but doesn’t want to make the long drive to Apple Creek or Sugarcreek, I just discovered that Ohio Hardwood Furniture in Peninsula (http://www.ohiohardwoodfurniture.com) carries mattresses from both Country Bedding in Apple Creek (which I visited in person and posted about back in September) and Upland Industries in Sugarcreek.

You can find a listing of some of the mattresses they sell at http://www.ohiohardwoodfurniture.com/products/mattress-sets — the Country Bedding mattresses are shown on that page (they have CB at the beginning of their item numbers), and if you click on Upland Bedding on that page, it will bring up a list of Upland’s mattresses (they have UM at the beginning of their item numbers). For many of the mattresses you can click on the “construction details” which will give you the density of each layer and general info on ILD (soft, medium, firm).

I spent a couple hours this afternoon laying on their beds. They also have absolutely gorgeous Amish furniture (amazing quality). Definitely worth a visit.
