Gardner Mattress

This is a great place to buy a mattress. My wife and I checked out the Newton store a couple of weeks ago as we were looking for something a little more «natural.» Gardner had plenty of mattresses to try out, and the salesperson, Erik, was very helpful and knowledgeable.
On delivery day, the truck showed up 5 minutes early, and the delivery people were in and out (taking away our old mattress and box springs) within 10 minutes. I feel really good about our purchase — it’s nice to get a quality, natural, hand-​made, customized product at a reasonable price while supporting a local business. Assuming the mattress holds up over the long term, this is where we plan to buy all of our mattresses going forward.
I have also since returned to the Newton store to purchase a latex pillow.

Gardner Mattress has a great warranty. My mattress was starting to sag, so they came, picked up the mattress, tightened the springs and brought it back to me. Who does that?
It’s a testament to their philosophy, customer service and quality. Will definitely come back when it is time for a new mattress. Another reason for people in New England to shop local.

Used a Unilocal coupon to purchase a mattress here. Very helpful staff — guy even loaded the mattress into my car! (it was latex so it folded up easily).

This is a wonderful local business. I had my last mattress from them for 30 years and just replaced it getting the sacro. At the store, buying the mattress was a breeze; the salesman was very knowledgeable having worked at the factory, and he helped me choose what I wanted. The mattresses are made to order, and yet I received mine within the next week. It and the box spring were delivered at the exact time I was told and the guys who delivered it took off and replaced my old frame as well. The price is comparable with the mass –produced places, but this mattress has a cute photo of the original owner’s son and his dog stamped on it! I hope to have this one at least as long as the previous one.

We had purchased a mattress at Jordans and after about 3 years, I was getting back aches each morning. A sag started to develop where I sleep after about one year. Eventually, I was sleeping in a pit. I am a runner/​triathlete and very trim so heavy body weight did not cause the sag. The sag is due to the fact that mattress manufacturers are moving away from normal old fashioned mattresses and using more latex like materials for padding in the tops. This makes the mattress feel great in the show room and makes it break down quickly so you will need a new mattress sooner. Works out great for the stores and manufacturers.
We went to Gardner because they are one of the few places left in existence that sell normal mattresses with big coils and thick comfortable padding. We picked a mid level firmness king size mattress. The price was reasonable and the delivery smooth. After a week, the back pains were gone. It has been about a year now and I can say that the mattress is just great. No sags in the mattress and no back pain. I would definitely recommend the Gardner mattresses.

Most people have probably never heard of this place because they don’t do any advertising, most of their business comes from word-​of-​mouth (a neighbor recommended them to us). This company makes their own mattresses locally, has a good selection to choose from and very helpful sales people. We needed a thinner mattresses for our platform bed and they can easily customize the size of the mattress if needed. We also found the prices to be the same or better than what you would find at the other mattress chains. We went to Jordans and Sleepys which overwhelmed us with the choices, selections, styles, prices. Gardner seemed like a much better option, no gimmicks (sleep technicians in white lab coats?) and you had the pleasure of dealing with a small independent company with a decent return policy.
