If you’re looking to buy a new mattress, it’s crucial to test it out in-store before you buy it. However, with more and more companies moving into the mobile space, people are purchasing mattresses online blindly. Those turning to online shopping for mattresses are doing so for convenience, reduced pricing and no pressure from salespeople.
But this isn't always the case. At Jerome's, you can get all three of those things without all of the hassles of buying online. So before considering purchasing your new mattress online, let’s discuss some of the reasons why you should stay away from the online-mattress-buying fad and test our your mattress in store at Jerome's.
Do you prefer your mattress to be more firm or more soft? Which brand do you like best? Do you want a mattress equipped with memory foam? With all of the different options out there, it’s impossible to tell what kind of mattress you want if you’re not actually in the store. At Jerome’s, you can try out mattresses by size, type and comfort level. In addition, you’re able to pick out frames and foundations that match your needs. That way you can try before you buy and find out if a mattress truly is “the one.”
One of the main reasons people choose to buy their mattresses online is because they get to avoid the pushy salespeople you have to deal with when furniture shopping. Salespeople love to pressure you into buying the more expensive mattress, even if it’s out of your price range or simply not right for you.
They can also make you feel like you have to like the mattress they're recommending; so you decide to settle instead of choosing a mattress that you love.

Buying online means you have to lug your brand new mattress from your mailbox to your bedroom. If you’re considering purchasing your mattress on the internet, remember that you are voluntarily choosing to remove your old mattress and set up the new one all by yourself.
And on top of that, not only do you have to set up your new mattress, but you have to remove your old mattress too. At approximately 60-80 pounds for a queen mattress, that's a lot of weight to lug around — especially if you don’t have to. Luckily at Jerome’s, we have a white glove delivery service that removes your old mattress and installs your new one for you. We’ll save you the time, money, and most importantly, the backache.
Sure, returns are free of charge for most online mattress purchases. But you make up for that fee when trying to get the mattress box in its original box. Unless you’re a magician, the pain of getting the mattress back in its old box and shipped out isn't worth the trouble. This is 100 percent avoidable if you try out mattresses in a store instead.
If you’re in the market for a new mattress, the only way to ensure you’re getting the best is to try it out in store. Stop falling for the online mattress sale schemes and instead come into your local Jerome’s showroom or Jerome's Dream Shop mattress stores where we have a no-gimmick approach and tons of great mattresses to choose from.
