R & S Mattress and Brooklyn Bedding

[phoenix]

Hi jgnarans,

I went to an R&S Mattress today in Salt Lake City (Murray, UT) and expected to see Brooklyn Bedding models similar to what they sell online. However, all of the models were completely different…at least, named differently

Yes … the Brooklyn Bedding and Dreamfoam mattresses are only available online (although they can be tested locally in Phoenix) and are different from the mattresses they make and sell through their R&S stores.

I thought these may be discontinued or “store only” models, but can’t find anything about any of them through a Google search. Feels sketchy and I’m stumped. Was excited to get into a Brooklyn Bedding mattress at a better price than online, but worried these are not legit. What are your thoughts? Thank you.

I’m not sure what you mean by “legit” but R&S mattress is certainly a reliable business and is a sister company to Brooklyn Bedding and Dreamfoam. You can see my thoughts about them in the Salt Lake City list here. The mattresses that they sell there that are made by Brooklyn Bedding would certainly be well worth considering in terms of their quality and value.

There is more about the most important parts of the “value” of a mattress purchase in post #13 here that can help you make more meaningful comparisons between mattresses but outside of PPP (Posture and alignment, Pressure relief, and Personal preferences) a mattress is only as good as the quality of the materials inside it regardless of the name of the manufacturer on the label and since they are transparent about the materials in their mattresses you will easily be able to make meaningful comparisons between their mattresses and any others you are considering.
