Often, when I tell a new customer the final price on the mattress that they have picked out from our inventory they look at me perplexed. This is because; many people believe the common misconception that new mattresses are extremely expensive. In fact, there is so much misinformation about the cost of mattresses in the U.S out there, that most people simply avoid mattress shopping for years because they honestly believe that they cannot afford it.
Personally, I feel that this is a shame. A good night’s sleep on a soft mattress is something that everyone deserves.
Unfortunately until people begin to understand the difference between what the furniture boutiques charge for new mattresses and what the exact same mattresses actually costs, this is going to continue to be the common attitude regarding new mattresses in the United States.
You CAN afford to replace your mattress
Most Furniture store salesmen will gladly tell you that if you have been sleeping on the same bed for a decade now, then it is time for you too start looking into replacing your old mattress. What they won’t tell you is that their mattresses are ridiculously marked up in order to pay for their expensive sales promotions, commission, and to pay for the fancy furniture gallery that you are standing in.
Typically, when my clients ask me for my opinion about buying a new mattress I tell them to stay away from furniture stores all together. This isn’t because I don’t like free donuts and coffee- it s because I KNOW how these businesses operate and WHY the mattresses that they sell end up so overpriced.

What I recommend that all new mattress shoppers do instead is a bit of “smart shopping”. Essentially, what this means is that I encourage consumers to look online and compare different mattress brands and prices based on their own personal comfort preferences. Instead of getting attached to a particular model or brand name, I suggest that you find out what kind of mattress qualities that you want.
Do you prefer something soft or firm?
Are you looking for memory foam?
Does it have to be posture-pedic?
Is pillow-top important?
What materials do you want it to be manufactured with?
Are you looking for something all natural or synthetic?
Once you have identified the “qualities of the mattress” that you are shopping for we can help you select a few options based on what we currently have in stock. Basically, you describe to us “your perfect mattress” and we make some recommendations for your purchase. It is that easy.
When you come to buy your mattress from us, you’ll notice that our prices are much lower. This is because we are able to keep our operation costs down by offering a selective amount of inventory. Still, we carry the exact same products and brand names as the expensive furniture store down the street but instead of over-complicating the selling process we look for ways to save our customers money. At Cherry Hill, Mattress Warehouse we are proud of the fact that we do things a little bit differently but can still achieve the same positive results for our customers. Most of all we are happy to help people get a good night’s rest without charging them a ridiculous amount of money for it.
