Macys Mattress Shopping Guide

OVERVIEW

Buying a new mattress does not seem like a fun day out. But start out positively, head to your nearest Macy’s and you can accomplish this task painlessly. Macy’s is a recommended place to buy a mattress for the following reasons:

  • ✓ Over 70 models to choose from the best brands

  • ✓ White Glove Delivery & setup options

  • ✓ Knowledgeable Associates

  • ✓ Worry No More 10 Year Protection Plans

  • ✓ 120 day Comfort Trial

There are a couple of tips to make buying a mattress easier and we cover those in this review.  You can buy a new mattress as simply as you shop for any other item at Macy’s with helpful staff, excellent selection and special offers.

With all the hype about buying a mattress online and having it shipped in a box to your home via UPS, there is still something about going to the store and actually seeing the mattress before you buy.  We think Macy’s makes the mattress buying experience a positive one and does it way better than the mattress-only retail chains.

WHY WE RECOMMEND MACY'S

We recommend purchasing a mattress at Macy’s because if you have any issues with your mattress after your delivery, they provide a good customer service experience.  Because Macy’s knows you are a valuable customer and buy more than a mattress from them, they will be much more likely to assist you until you are satisfied than many of the mattress only retail chains. 

──Be sure you fully understand the fees and timing of the return policy so you know what to expect.

While the sales consultants will be helpful, you may not have positive chemistry with all of them, find one that you DO have chemistry with. Don't hesitate to come back another day to speak with a different sales person. Once you find one you like, get the days and hours they work so you can contact/visit them.

THE MATTRESS DEPARTMENT AT MACY'S IS PRIVATE AND AWAY FROM HEAVY TRAFFIC SO YOU CAN RELAX AND TRY OUT THE MATTRESS COMFORTABLY.

We also recommend Macy’s as a place to purchase a new mattress because you can try out the mattress at the store. Although the true test will be once you start sleeping on the mattress at home, it is nice to be able to see and feel the mattress before delivery. 


GOOD TO KNOW

Prepare for your visit

1.    Do your research online before going to the store or go to the store, have a
staff member make some recommendations and then research online. Do
not be pushed into a decision.

2.   Take a photo of sales sheet with pricing and model. Return home to research.

3.   Narrow your selection to 3-5 models within your budget and write down your
questions.

4.   Return to the store and try out the mattresses.  Lie down as you would at
home and close your eyes. Plan to spend 30-45 minutes on the visit, so
make sure you have enough time not to be rushed.

5.    Ask the sales team member helping you if there are any sales or promotions coming up or that he/she can apply now to close the sale. (be prepared to buy immediately once you ask this) If you don’t appear ready to buy you probably won’t get the best price.

6.    Try not to let the sales person move you to a mattress that is not on your list. If he / she recommends another brand/model, you may want to leave for the day and do research on that model ── Don’t be pushed into a decision.

DO A LITTLE HOMEWORK. A GOOD TIP BEFORE VISITING A STORE IS HAVE A SHORT LIST OF MATTRESS MODELS YOU WANT TO TRY OUT.
