Hi Mattress,
Unfortunately this is the “norm” in most of the mainstream industry and most of the members here that spend a couple of hours on the site will know more meaningful information about mattresses and materials than most of the salespeople in the mainstream industry. This is one of the reasons that I started the site so that people would know how to ask more meaningful questions and be better able to find more knowledgeable and experienced retailers and manufacturers.
I don’t keep any records of the mattresses that any of the manufacturers or retailers in the many lists for different areas in the forum (that would be an impossible job in a constantly changing market) but if you follow the steps in the tutorial post one at a time you will be able to identify both the stores and the mattresses that are the best options for you.
I’m happy to help with “how” to choose but there are too many unknowns, variables, and personal preferences involved for anyone to recommend “what” to choose (or even a specific store in most cases) based on theory at a distance or on personal criteria that may be different from yours.
If you are in the Greater Toronto area then the better options and possibilities I’m aware of are listed in post #1 here.
The tutorial post also has a list of some of the better online options that ship anywhere across Canada (it’s in post #21 here) for those who are comfortable with an online purchase.
