Returns & Exchanges

At National Mattress, we believe the only way to truly know if a mattress is right for you is to sleep on it — not for a few minutes in a showroom, but through every season in your own home. That is why every mattress comes with our 365-Night Sleep Trial: a full year to decide, with a full refund if it is not the right fit. No restocking fees. No hoops.

365-Night Sleep Trial

  1. A Full Year to Decide: Your 365-night trial begins the day your mattress is delivered or picked up. Sleep on it for a minimum of 21 nights to let your body adjust, then take the rest of the year to decide. If it is not right, request a return anytime through night 365.
  2. Full Refund. Every. Single. Penny: If you are not satisfied after the 21-night adjustment period, we will refund the full price you paid for your returned items to your original payment method within 3 business days of pickup. No restocking fees. No processing charges. No deductions from the price you paid for what you’re returning. Ever.
  3. Free Pickup at Your Door: You do not have to squeeze it back in the box. When you request a return, we will schedule a free pickup right at your door at a time that works for you. Return the mattress with its original packaging with labels and manufacturer tags attached — no re-boxing required.
  4. Condition Requirements: Returned mattresses must be in donatable condition: clean, with no stains, rips, burns, mold, bodily fluids, or excessive wear. Manufacturer tags and labels must remain attached (we verify at pickup). We strongly recommend using a mattress protector from day one to keep your mattress in returnable condition.
  5. Household Limit: We allow up to 2 mattress returns per household (returns and exchanges combined). This helps us keep this generous policy sustainable so every customer can benefit from it.
  6. Where Returned Mattresses Go: Every returned mattress in donatable condition is given to local charities and shelters. Your purchase helps someone in need get a better night’s sleep, even if the mattress was not the right fit for you.

When an Offer Depended on What You Bought

Some of our offers are earned by what’s in your order: a discount on an accessory when you buy a mattress, a free adjustable base with a qualifying model, a bundle price. If you return the item that earned the offer and keep the rest, we simply recalculate your order as if the offer had never applied. You still get back every dollar you paid for the item you’re returning. The kept items go back to their regular price, and that difference is shown as its own clearly labelled line on your credit note. Nothing is hidden in the math.

A few specifics:

  • Accessory discounts (including VIP member offers): These require a mattress on the same order. If the mattress comes back for a refund rather than an exchange, kept accessories are re-priced to their regular price and the difference is deducted from the mattress refund. Exchange instead and every discount stays.
  • If your order still qualifies without the returned item (for example, another qualifying item remains on the order), nothing changes and there is nothing to recalculate.
  • Free gifts: Return the gift together with the qualifying item, in the condition you received it, and there is nothing to reconcile. If you keep the gift, its regular selling price is deducted from your refund. Some gifts are final sale; the offer terms say so up front.
  • Exchanges: Your offer follows you. Exchange for another qualifying model and the benefit carries forward, up to the value of the offer available on your replacement. You only see an adjustment if the replacement’s offer is smaller than the one you had.
  • Returning the whole order: The offer math above does not apply — everything comes back, so there is nothing to recalculate on your items, and you get back every dollar you paid for them.

Exchanges — Try a Different Mattress Anytime

Something not quite right? Too firm, too soft, sleeping too warm? Our non-commissioned sleep experts will help you find a better match from our entire lineup of 200+ mattresses across 14+ brands — Sealy, Serta, Beautyrest, Tempur-Pedic, Stearns & Foster, and more. No other retailer offers this kind of flexibility.

  1. Exchange Anytime During Your Trial: You can request an exchange at any point during your 365-night trial — there is no waiting period for exchanges. If you already know the mattress is not right, there is no reason to wait.
  2. Your Trial Continues: After an exchange, your original 365-night trial continues from your initial purchase date. The clock does not restart, but your full refund option remains available through night 365 — even after an exchange.
  3. No Exchange Fees: We never charge a fee to exchange. You purchase your new mattress, and once we have collected your original, we refund it in full to your original payment method.
  4. Exchange Across Any Brand or Size: Unlike other retailers, you are not limited to same-brand or same-size exchanges. Switch from a Sealy queen to a Beautyrest king, or from a firm hybrid to a plush memory foam — whatever your sleep needs require.
  5. Seamless Swap: For customers within our delivery zone, your new mattress is delivered and the exchanged mattress is picked up at the same time — no gap in your sleep. For customers outside the local delivery zone, please contact us to arrange logistics.
  6. Condition Requirements: Exchanged mattresses must meet the same donatable condition standards as returns: clean, no stains, rips, burns, mold, bodily fluids, or excessive wear, with original packaging and manufacturer tags and labels attached.

Unopened Products

Changed your mind before opening? All unopened merchandise can be returned within 365 days of pickup or delivery for a full refund. The product must be in its original, sealed manufacturer packaging. Contact us to arrange a return or bring it back to our store — no questions asked.

Sleep Accessories

Pillows, mattress protectors, sheets, and other sleep accessories can be returned within 60 days for a full refund. Accessories must come back brand new and unused — unwashed, with no signs of use, and with their original packaging. Once an accessory has been used or washed, it is no longer eligible for return. Still factory-sealed? Unopened merchandise has the full 365-day window (see Unopened Products).

Damaged Products

If you notice any damage within 24 hours of receiving your product, please email us immediately at support@nationalmattress.ca. We will address the issue and ensure a quick resolution.

Manufacturer Warranty

All mattresses come with the original manufacturer’s warranty. Any issues related to defects can be addressed through the warranty, and we are here to assist you with any warranty concerns. The 365-Night Sleep Trial is separate from and in addition to the manufacturer warranty.

Why 365 Nights?

A mattress can feel different as seasons change. What keeps you warm and cozy in a Canadian winter might sleep too warm in July. 365 nights gives you a full year to experience your mattress through spring, summer, fall, and winter — so you can be completely confident in your decision. Most customers know well before 365 nights whether they love their mattress. But if you need the full year, it is yours.

What Is Not Covered

  • Custom sizes and special order mattresses
  • Closeout and clearance items (all sales final). Open Bag mattresses are not clearance items and include the full 365-Night Sleep Trial
  • Mattresses not in donatable condition (stained, damaged, missing tags)
  • Sleep accessories that have been used or washed (accessories must come back brand new and unused)
  • Returns beyond the 2 per household limit

At National Mattress, we are committed to making your mattress purchase completely risk-free. We carry 14+ brands and 200+ mattresses because we believe the right mattress is different for everyone — and our non-commissioned sleep experts are here to help you find yours.
