Chicago Discount Mattresses

Called about a mattress, got a deal on a mattress, got the mattress at my door in less than an hour. Absolutely legit.
NOTE: Cash only.

I contacted Ricky asking about two different mattress sets and immediately he was ready to go with pricing that you cannot beat, that included delivery and set-​up. I love my queen mattress set! So comfy!
Thanks Ricky!

You get what you pay for. I was in a rush and needed a mattress within 48 hours. I knew I wasn’t in for the best experience considering they apparently don’t have a store front and communicate only via text. I paid $ 275 for a Queen mattress set & delivery. Within 2 days the center of the mattress started to sink and now it’s visibly droopy. Really uncomfortable. I was told the mattress is «new in the plastic.» I looked at the tag on the mattress and it says it was manufactured in 2003. So it’s 13 years old?

Second mattress purchased! Honestly this place is very easy to work with and even not having a retail location makes it actually easier. They are only selling wholesale and offered free same day delivery. The delivery guy remembered me from a year ago from the first purchase. Unless I’m buying a $ 3000 mattress I need to go no where else. CDM is the only option for a solid $ 500 value and a great apartment mattress.

Wow! I needed a queen bed asap and this place delivered! I was looking for a new queen bed under $ 200 so I decided to call Chicago Discount Mattress because of all the reviews. They picked up right away and said that he has a brand new queen bed with box spring for that price range and can have it delivered (curbside) to my place in an hour. They delivered! It was awesome!

Absolutely excellent service! I just moved to Chicago from LA & the quick service & kindness of the owner was way beyond my expectations. I couldn’t take a queen size bed up 3 flights of stairs by myself & he willingly without me asking did it for me and completely set up the bed for me. Above & beyond & the prices are unbeatable! My pillow top queen mattress is super comfortable & the comfort is way beyond what I paid for it!!! If you’re looking for quality service & great pricing for quality products, choose this place!

Will never go to a Sleepy’s again. Absolutely no pressure sales tactics, delivery people were professional and the prices were 50% below Sleepy’s. Thanks

So this is another buyer beware warning. First and foremost in a city as large as Chicago, I find it strange this this place on has 17 reviews given the über high demand for quality mattresses out there but that’s besides the point.
Let’s start with my shopping experience. I followed the instructions from the website and sent an e-​mail. Roughly a week later without no warning I get a text message on my phone that says «mattress $ 200». My original request was Queen Mattress
Memory Foam (Tempur) and Queen Mattress Plush and Pillow. I’m then sent a photo of a mattress that’s blue without understanding any details. My request actually should have fetched 3 prices. I responded to the text and said I was looking for a Tempur memory foam bed. The response «$ 500 what’s your budget? I can get it down to $ 200». Maybe it’s me but 1) mattress shopping was never easy — it’s complex like car shopping, (2) if I’m going to purchase anything I’m going to sleep on every night, I would not like to close the price negotiations over text, and (3) the «deals» seem way too good to be true if a «$ 500» bed can become «$ 200».
Everything about my initial experience yells BUYER BEWARE. I’m a veteran shopper and we all know how great deals are had from a good retailer. This IMHO, felt more like I was walking down to the corner yard sale or responding to an ad on Craig’s List. While I have no problems shopping in either place, I just don’t want to get my MATTRESS from those places.

Ricky to the rescue! I came back, and Ricky profusely apologized for any inconvenience. Honored the voucher I had and made sure he ordered my box spring from the warehouse so it could be deliver within 24 hours. Had a few wasted hours, but it may have been worth it!!! Thank you Ricky for your help it was greatly appreciated.

These are refurbished mattresses.
They dont tell you, and the website doesnt say so… but if you look at the mattresses you will see a yellow tag stating «All Secondhand Material, Contents Unknown».
Bed is ok, I just hope it doesnt have bed bugs (and I wouldnt have paid this much either).

My wife and I recently bought a king mattress, box spring and frame from CDM. Ricky was a pleasure to work with and gave us a great deal! The bed was very comfortable and affordable. They delivered everything and the gentlemen who delivered the bed were super nice. Check out this place if you want a high quality bed at a decent price, with great service.

I called and spoke with Ricky who was super friendly on the phone. I needed a bed ASAP and he found the perfect one with a great price. Sadly I kept having to push back the time I was coming in due to constraints at the office but Ricky held on to my set and when I came in it was ready for me with an AMAZING price.
Yeah the storefront is small but I thought the service more than made up for it. Ricky was able to deliver it to my apartment two hours later and for about half what I expected to spend.
If you need an amazing mattress at a price that will blow your mind, this is the place to stop!

We stared our day off at «Back to Bed» because we found a groupon that seemed like a good deal. What a joke. The salesman never even got off the couch in the middle of the showroom to help us. Not personable=No sale!
We found Chicago Discount Mattress on Unilocal.Coming in to check it out was the best decision my gf and I made today! Ricky asked us what we were looking for, budget etc. He was on his game! Within ten minutes he pulled three queen sets for us to try. We found a perfect match for what we were looking for and even got an awesome price. Well done Ricky, we’re sleeping good tonight!

I really needed to buy a mattress today and came here to buy. Their open sign was lit, it was 2:00pm on a Friday within their posted hours. The door was locked. I called them and they answered and said they were opening at 4 today. Cool dudes. I will keep my hundreds of dollars and spend it somewhere else. Thanks for nothing.

Overall, I got a great deal on my mattress. Probably saved 50% off retail. Service was good. Word to the wise, don’t buy the Unilocal coupon, you’re throwing your money away. We haggled over the price for a little and settled on something very reasonable. Then I told them I had the coupon and wanted to use it and they basically said no chance… So there goes $ 50 for nothing. That said, I would return and reccomend to others if you’re fine with a no frills approach and getting hot deals.

When we moved from Denver to Chicago it seemed like everything that could go wrong did. Surprisingly, finding and buying a mattress was the only thing that went smoothly. Don was awesome and helped us find a great mattress in our budget and firmness requirements. Plus delivery was so fast and very affordable. I was more than pleased with my mattress and we continue to sleep like the dead every night. I will also go back to Chicago Discount Mattresses when I buy a mattress for our second bedroom. Thanks again Don!

I’d been sleeping on a futon for a year and a half, which was less than ideal. My mother had promised me a new bed as a combo birthday/​Christmas present (for the next 5 years). She had a budget and I had no intention of asking her to go over it so we took ourselves down to Chicago Discount Mattress. I’d planned on having us shop around first but Don offered such a good deal it didn’t seem necessary.
While I had my eye on the priciest pillowtop in the store, Don steered us toward the more mother budget-​friendly option. Partly due to Don, but also a great deal to do with my mother’s ability to charm. err…anything, we got an excellent deal on a queen size mattress, box spring, and frame plust same day delivery and set up.
While I still dream of higher quality mattresses, it’s been a few months now and I’m supremely happy with my new bed. I also firmly believe that we got it for less than we would have paid in another mattress store. And you know what? I don’t care why that is the case. Don can keep his secrets. And I’ll keep my mattress.
Be warned, you need to go here with an open mind and a discerning eye. Just because the place isn’t set up the way you’ve come to expect, doesn’t mean anything sinister is occurring. Sure, you might wind up a sucker, but you also might get a really great mattress for really cheap. So be smart, put on your bargaining hat, and remember that in most of the rest of the world, this place wouldn’t be remotely out of the ordinary.

None of the firm mattresses were as comfortable or firm as mattresses from other stores, nor were the prices competitive. The store is cramped; the inventory leans, stacked-​up, against the wall. The salesperson could only lay them on the floor for me to try them (i.e., I couldn’t try them in a bed).
I got a bad vibe from this place; despite major-​brand signs on the wall, all of the mattresses were generic, had no tags, and had identical all-​white ticking. While I have no direct proof, I suspect that these mattresses are actually secondhand and reconditioned.

In short, I am glad that I found this place on Unilocal.Don was terrific and helped us find exactly the mattress we were looking for at a price that was half of what we would have paid elsewhere.
We had looked at a couple of other places before we looked at Chicago Discount Mattresses. As noted in other reviews, there is no big show room and there are only a couple of sections for some types of mattresses. CDM is a kind of TJMaxx of mattress stores. Some of the mattresses have torn packaging, a little scuff, or other superficial defects. Don was upfront about what the issue was and stated that he was willing to track down the exact type of mattress that we were looking for and give us a call when he found it. This turned out not to be necessary — Don had three mattresses in the firmness level we were looking for and around the same price. Don was very helpful and direct about the price/​quality. This was not a high pressure experience.
We bought a mattress on Saturday and Don delivered it on Sunday. He even helped me move and set up the old mattress in the guest bedroom. He and his assistant wouldn’t take any tip for this added service. We have been sleeping on the mattress for a couple of months now and have no complaints — exactly as expected — a name brand mattress at a fraction of the cost.

This place was great and I’d say for starters, don’t judge a book by it’s cover! It’s definitely a small place, no doubt. There’s no big show room, but they’re very accommodating as soon as you come in. They’ll quickly get out any mattress you need for you to try. They’re also walking reference tools when it comes to mattresses. You can easily tell them what you’re looking for and within a matter of seconds they’re pulling something out for you to check out and try!
I’d imagine this simplistic approach is what allows them to keep prices low and to often offer additional discounts off of what they have listed.
On top of this, we were able to have our mattress delivered within 2 hours of purchase! Granted we live fairly close but I heard a few other people in before discussing their delivery options and they were also having their purchase delivered that afternoon! They’re very flexible and want to get things out of the store and to you as quickly as possible to make room for more!
