Wayfair, IKEA, and Amazon. Could find value there while also on a budget.
Also throw target into this mix
I second Wayfair. I have their medium foam mattress for $200, it works great.
I have Casper and Leesa mattresses - I would recommend them both.
Have you heard much about purple. Usually seen them thrown in the conversation.
This is gonna sound weird, but I have a friend in a city in the southeast that has his own mattress business and actually netted something like $150K last year (no franchise or anything). He used to refurbish furniture and found out that mattresses are higher margin and for him not that much of a hassle. He's obsessed with mattresses to the point that it's weird, but makes money and is an otherwise normal person so whatever. Anyway, I asked him about the purple ones and said they're generally good but a little overrated. I'm personally not that familiar with them.
I have heard good things about them. I haven’t ever sat on a purple mattress though - but think most of these brands offer a free trial if you don’t like it.
Restoration Hardware, West Elm, Crate and Barrel, Pier 1
A couple may have gone out of business
Haha I love Resto and West Elm but hard to recommend that to anyone fresh in the city who's probably going to change apartments once or twice a year. Good call on Pier 1 lol tragedy
I have stuff from both RH and WE. RH had great stuff but now, at least for me, the stuff looks a little weird. I have a few pieces from WE and recently bought a sleeper sofa from them to put in my basement. Their performance fabrics seem durable. It seems like you can get almost anything on it, and with some work, it will come out.
How rich are you?
Holy fuck...
recommendations for all furniture?
Leesa mattresses are phenomenal
As an analyst I’d recommend Casper for a mattress (sleep is precious and worth investing $$$ into a good setup) and Bob’s Discount Furniture for the rest of your stuff. If you want to spend more on furniture (honestly not worth it since I’d imagine you’ll move within the next 1-2 years), West Elm has good stuff. I’d also look at Kaiyo if you’re in NYC - can get some great deals on secondhand stuff
As an analyst, look at the reality. You're probably in a "first apartment" type of place and will maybe move on later in your 2nd or 3rd year (I know I did, not for an upgrade or anything but since I had the actual optionality granted to me living in the city). Given this is the case, I support all the comments above but you should focus on a price efficient option which brings me to the Zinus memory foam mattress one can cop on amazon. That thing is like 150 bucks for a twin (I think) and doesn't fuck your back up. Once you find a place more permanent, you might even stick with it or choose to upgrade from there. I was really cheap and went with the literal cheapest option at Mattress Firm (which I think is a money laundering front) and I got the literal worst sleep on it - was 200 for the mattress, box frame and shipping. That being said if you have the cash, the bed in a box options like casper are great but giving my perspective. FWIW I use the Zinus one still but upgraded to a king size given I live with the girl now
Any thoughts on ikea vs amazon furniture?
Purple mattress is pretty great, and I had a temperpedic in college.
For analysts:
- Nectr mattress
- Zinus bed furniture
- Living Spaces + Wayfair for furniture
- Wayfair for all the little stuff
I like to buy furniture on IKEA online shop. Also I often buy it on Amazon, because there's a lot of good options to purchase :)
