So here's a question... We visited the Glenwood Ave location today, and very much liked the lack of pushiness and how knowledgeable the sales guy was. I know they're factory direct, so there's no middle man, and the prices are very upfront & competitive... but does anyone dicker on the price with OMF? I LOVE negotiating on prices for any big ticket item, but am less likely to want to rake over the coals a local company selling direct. Would appreciate anyone's thoughts.
They don't dicker even for free delivery.
Refreshing in the ridiculous blast of sale ads from other retailers.

They always deliver on time and the delivery folks are quite friendly and helpful.

Vicki, I see where you bought a OMF bed a couple years ago. I just purchased a King Orthopedic Ultra Plush with delivery set for tomorrow. I have had it with these newer Sealy, Serta one sided beds. So how are you liking your mattress? I know I should turn the bed for the first couple months every 2 weeks from what the salesman told me. I hope I no longer had a canoe to sleep in once this one gets broke in.
We bought a mattress from them a couple of years ago and it's holding up well. The demonstration mattress in the store was pretty soft, but when ours was delivered, it was significantly firmer. So firm, in fact, that I had to go to Sam's Club and get a three-inch memory foam topper, which made it perfect. So you can't necessarily go by the test mattress.
Oh hayell yes! Best mattress experience ever. Besides these guys, that industry is super shady.
We bought ours there MANY years ago and it's still by far the most comfy mattress I've ever slept on. It makes traveling sweet and sour because I always want to get home to it.
FWIW, the past couple nights my wife has been sick and as a result, doing a lot of tossing and turning. I can't sleep in the same bed with her because of it, so I went to sleep in our guest room which has the mattress we used before we bought this one...needless to say, only 2 nights there and I have slept terribly and now have a pain in back...ugh.
We have OMF beds as well and they are comfortable....a bit firmer than I prefer, but comfortable and very sturdy. Certainly a good product. My preference is the W or Westin bed mentioned earlier in this thread as well, but OMF products are great.
I know I should turn the bed for the first couple months every 2 weeks from what the salesman told me. I hope I no longer had a canoe to sleep in once this one gets broke in.
haha I think the salesman meant to say every two months. Every two weeks would be excessive! But it certainly wouldn't hurt your mattress if you did do that
I love our OMF mattress. Haven't slept so well in years.

I took the tour yesterday and also watched as they made my mattress. It was delivered today, YEA!
We got the King Orthopedic Ultra Plush and the guy who was making it put in an extra row of spring inserts around the border. They normally only put one row in but he told me while he was putting them inside the coils that sometimes people special ordered them with 2 rows for added side support. I looked at him, gave a wink and a nod and told him mine was a "special order". He gave me the thumbs up and the next thing I know they are stitching it up with a double row of upgraded insert coils.
They really go out of their way to explain how and why they make their mattresses different than the leading brands. I am a fully informed consumer now and I hope I sleep well for a change. I did notice the bed is firmer than the display model but they explained that also before I ever had mine assembled. I like the fact that they are up front about everything.
Thanks for the imput all!
