Worst Purchase EVER

Every morning I wake up close to tears, and say I am going to write a review, so I am finally going to do it. About two and a half years ago I convinced my now husband, that it was time to ditch our crappy discount, hand-me-down mattress we'd been sleeping on, and invest in a great bed. We both have bad backs from playing sports, we both have stressful jobs, and sound, comfortable sleep is so important for both those issues. So, we walked over to our local fidi sleepys to spend a considerable amount of money, probably on a tempurpedic. Store experience was great, they used a cool machine to look at the amount of firmness each of us needed, and by the end we walked out buying a pretty expensive sleeptolive mattress (same firmness on both sides). What a mistake. Long story short, the bed dips in the middle. It always has. After 6 months, we actually put our old mattress pad that we had bought to disguise the awfulness of our old bed on our new, expensive bed!! Finally after 2 years of frustration, I took action, called sleepys to see if there was anything we could do. I find out that we have a great warranty, and may be able to do do something about this mess after all. Yay! They send out someone to look at our bed, and it turns out I really do sleep on an angle! The "string" test showed that sure enough our bed dips on both sides, but about an inch more on mine. So the tech sends his report to sleepys/their third party mattress reviewer -- we are so excited that the prospect of a good, comfortable sleep is on the horizon, and then we heard from sleepys. Got our long-awaited letter in the mail…and…THEY DENIED OUR CLAIM. Really!?! After so much great, helpful customer service, we received a cold, inhuman awful letter. That provided little information, other than something to the tune of “your mattress is defective, but not defective enough, deal with it”. I am beyond irate, uncomfortable, tired, and will never shop at Sleepy's or buy Sleep To Live ever again, and neither should you.

We have had ours for four years and have been miserably uncomfortable since the start. We will never buy the Sleep to Live line again. Will go out shopping for something new. At least I know that it's not us! Thanks for your review. We agree 100% with you! Julie

I was told by Sears Canada it was the best but I found it to be junk after 6 months I found myself awake on the dame floor as I would try to get out of bed. Their seems to be a surport on the side of the bed that has broken in two. When you turn in bed that is bad news as drown you go on to the floor. Then Sear said I would have to get a hold of the some company in Montreal Que which they did not have a phone number for or just did not care. Now I would like to hear from some one from the company to help me out...... Please Help Len Nixon NB Canada
