I purchased a Miralux mattress from Sleepys today and went in thinking I was going to look at and buy one of the known "S" brands. Well the Saleswoman had some rountine and I ended up purchasing a Miralux Splendor. I'm not blaming anyone, I'm an adult and could make my own decisions and stopped the transaction. It did feel like the most comfortable of all the mattresses out tried out.   But now I've been checking online (this site and others) and reading some really negative comments and am having second thoughts.  My delivery is scheduled for next weekend - Sep.6 - and no $$ was put down yet (I financed it). If I sleep on this so to speak and decide tomorrow to cancel my order will Sleepys do it or give me a hard time? Would really appreciate a reply to that question or better if anyone has a good report on this brand to ease my concerns.  thanks.

Thanks so much for the feedback. Well I did cancel the purchase with Sleepys by telephone and followed up with a letter. I literally could not sleep most of Saturday night stressing over the poor choice I made and how taken in I was (i'm a NY'er darnit, supposed to know better!). Anyway, I didn't require a refund because no deposit was put down. I opted to finance instead. The telephone representative was helpful, cancelled the order, asked my reasons (which is understandable) but here's the thing that got me - he put me on hold for about a minute to supposedly process the cancellation, returned and asked if "price" was one of my reasons. Because if it was, he was in a position to make an offer that the store representatives are not able to make.  I was not changing my mind but asked what he could do just out of curiousity. He was able to offer me the same miralux set at $799! Are they kidding, down $600 in less than 24hrs?  It was early Sunday morning, I didn't want to get hostile or angry, I simply said thanks but no thanks.

I immediately drove over to MACY'S where I had some great experiences in the past with their furniture department. They were having some good holiday sales on mattresses and purchased a Serta mattress/box spring plus added protection plan for a grand total that came out to more than $100 LESS than Sleepys so-called better offer to retain my business. No bargining or haggling from Macys just honest professional service.
