A mattress was bought for my mom (A senior citizen) about one tear ago from Sleepy's.
In under a year - The mattress has formed a large indent in the middle. My mom is a petite woman and weighs 100 pounds. This should not be happening. It is extremely painful for her to sleep on this mattress. She called Sleepy's and they informed her that this was "normal". She awakes each morning with terrible back pain because of sleeping in the indent in the mattress.
The mattress is defective if it did not last even for one year.
Sleepy's sent over their "experts" to measure the indent and investigate, take photos etc. A few weeks after that they informed her that the indent falls within their "normal" range and they will do nothing about it.
The "experts" that came over to investigate work for Sleepy's - Of course they are going to report that this is normal...So that Sleepy's does not have to do anything about their defective merchandise.
Sleepy's informed my mom that this is "normal"....And that the mattress should conform to the body - However - It is not a tempur pedic mattress (The sponge kind)....This is a mattress that is supposed to last for 15 years. My mom is tiny and weighs very little.
My mom cannot afford to purchase one mattress per year - As I'm sure no one else can - or should have to.
Sleepy's will not replace the mattress...In the meantime my mom has back pain every day from sleeping in a valley on a mattress that is under one year old.
According to Sleepy's - The matter is closed.
Sleepy's should be ashamed to sell a defective mattress to a senior citizen and then not correct their mistake. This mattress was supposed to last for 15 years.

POSTED: Wednesday, August 11, 2010I'm sorry I didn't keep the information or the name of the woman who finally helped me.
What I can suggest is to do exactly what I did - And maybe you'll get a call from a supervisor who can actually help. I got the run around for a while too.
I opened a complaint with the better business BBB online...They will contact Sleepys about your complaint.
I also contacted news programs like "7 on your side" and "shame on you".
I also continued to write on this site as well - And received many calls from Sleepys customer service - Who could NOT help me....Finally - I did get a call from a female supervisor who DID help...And we made a deal about the delivery fee too - Since I didn't feel that my mom should pay for that since the mattress was defective.
Keep at it...Keep e-mailing, writing on this site, calling and complaining to whomever will listen - I'm sure eventually someone will contact you who wants it to all go away.
Good luck with it - I'm sorry I didn't keep the person's name.
Let me know how it goes....

Thank you.

Sleepy's is a scam outfit. They may have been a good company in the past but, not anymore. Glad I did not buy from them.
