Discount Mattress Store
St. George mattress retailer offering discount mattresses and bedding for the Southern Utah area.
Discount Mattress Store sells mattresses and bedding in St. George. Shopping this category by comparison is unusually difficult, and the reason is structural rather than accidental: the industry is built so that the same mattress cannot easily be found in two places.
Context
Manufacturers commonly supply retailers with models under retailer-exclusive names. The construction may be identical or near-identical to a model sold elsewhere under a different name, sometimes with one specification altered - a different foam density in a comfort layer, a different cover, a different coil count - so that it is technically a distinct product. The effect, intended or otherwise, is that a shopper cannot carry a model name from one store to another and compare, which is why so much mattress shopping ends in comparing feel and figures rather than products.
The workaround is to compare specifications instead of names. On an innerspring or hybrid, the useful numbers are coil count, coil gauge - lower gauge means thicker wire and a firmer, more durable spring - and whether the coils are pocketed. On a foam bed it is the density of each layer in pounds per cubic foot, along with the thickness of the comfort layers over the support core. Total height is nearly meaningless on its own, since it can be made up of cheap filler foam as easily as of good material. A retailer that will supply the layer-by-layer specification is giving you something you can actually compare; one that will only give a model name is not, whatever the name happens to be.

Frequently asked questions
Why can I not find the same mattress at two stores?
Manufacturers supply retailers with models under exclusive names, often with the construction identical or near-identical to a model sold elsewhere and occasionally with one specification changed so that it is technically a different product. The result is that model names do not carry between retailers and cannot be used to compare.
How do you compare mattresses across brands?
By specification rather than name. On an innerspring or hybrid, look at coil count, coil gauge - lower gauge means thicker, firmer wire - and whether coils are individually pocketed. On a foam bed, look at the density of each layer in pounds per cubic foot and the thickness of the comfort layers above the support core.
Does a thicker mattress mean a better one?
Not by itself. Total height can be built from low-density filler foam as easily as from good material, so it says nothing about durability or support on its own. What matters is what the layers are made of and how thick each one is, which is why the layer-by-layer specification is the thing worth asking for.
