      On 5/30/24, My husband and I purchased two twin XL mattresses with twin xl adjustable bases from ****** at the Tucson Brooklyn Bedding store (invoice and # attached). At NO time, were we informed the adjustable bases were non-refundable. We were also told the bases would easily fit into our existing frame. Moreover, we were told that Brooklyn Bedding "asks" not "requires" that customers give 30 days before initiating a return on mattresses, to give the body time to adjust. At the time of delivery on 6/14/24, the delivery crew set up the bases and mattresses. Once out, it was obvious that the adjustable bases wouldn't work in our bed without destroying it (confirmed with our company). We were NOT told this could be an issue and also that NO refund would be given on bases. I immediately called ******, while his crew was still at our house, to tell him that the bases were not fitting and that this is a huge problem. I also said we don't want the bases left like this. We also did not want the mattresses since none of the setup worked. I did not want the crew to leave, but they set up the bases, making the mattresses at a very high and unsafe height since they didn't fit, took a picture, and left. As they were leaving, ****** ensured us that we could still return the bases to the store (and they could likely use them as a display), but now the mattresses were "used." ****** said he would call his boss to iron out the details for a pick up of items likely on Friday, June 21st. He again never told us the bases were non refundable in these conversations. On Thursday, June 20th, ****** called my husband to tell us his boss said that we had to "keep the bases" and that they would get the mattresses in "30 days" per policy. We explained to ****** that he told us the policy wasn't that 30 days was "required, " but that they ask customers to wait 30 days while trying the new mattress. We aren't even able to use the mattresses/bases, so this shouldn't apply. We want a refund.

      Purchased a mattress from Brooklyn Bedding in Dec of 2023. After 2 months, returned it. Then, in April of 2024, we purchased a different mattress from them. Just trying it out, hoping we'd like it.Well, it's really hurting my back. I tried to submit a return for it, but the customer service agent is saying they won't accept my return.I'm really confused. The return policy says that they have a 120 night return policy on ALL mattresses. Also, they never told me when I was buying the second mattress that it wouldn't be able to be returned. Nor did they tell me that the first time I returned the first mattress.If I had known they wouldn't have accepted my second return, I never would have tried to get a second mattress with them. I honestly gave them my best shot, and the mattress isn't for me. I wish they would have been up front with me before my purchases.If I could select multiple desired settlements, other than getting a refund, I wish that Brooklyn Bedding would INFORM me before I bought my second mattress that that second mattress would not be eligible for a 120-night trial and free returns. Because they did not do this, and because I successfully had a positive return with them previously, I assumed my subsequent return would mirror the first. Because it did not, I feel they were deceptive in not informing me of this policy.

      On April 3rd, my husband and I purchased a king size Brooklyn bedding signature hybrid, with the additional top option, from our local Brooklyn bedding store in ***********, *******. It was delivered quickly after, and the delivery was fine. The delivery was $99.However, within two weeks, my side of the bed began losing support rapidly. I thought maybe it was in my head, but my husband laid on my side and I laid on his, and there was very noticeable difference. We could see a small depression in the sewn in cloud/cooling top we paid extra for.We contacted our local Brooklyn bedding store immediately, and they said they would be able to do an inspection for a warranty claim, and exchange the mattress.At this point, we had already lost our faith in this mattress company. What kind of mattresses loses support after two weeks?We scheduled an inspection, but called back to express that we just wanted to refund, but they told us that wouldn't be possible until we completed the 30 night trial. I was insistent that I did not want to sleep on a "defective" mattress.We scheduled removal at the 30 day ***** and we were informed that there would be a $99 fee to pick up the mattress.I told them this should be waived, since the mattress is clearly "defective". They argued that without an inspection, it couldn't be deemed defective. I told them that they were only willing to do an exchange, and that I didn't feel comfortable with an exchange anymore.I contacted Brooklyn bedding online, who gave me a phone number to call. The person I spoke with on the phone said that she would pass my complaint along to the district manager, who would contact me regarding the issue ASAP.It's now time for the mattress removal, and no one ever contacted me, so we are out an additional $99 for a piece of junk.It is absurd to be charged $99 for the pick up, when this mattress is busted after two weeks of use. We want the $99 fee to be waived.

      Business Response

      Date: 05/06/2024

      Brooklyn Bedding's store salesperson spoke with our customer this morning, May 6th, 2024, explaining that the $99 charge was being reversed and expressed his apologies for not being in the store when she shared her concern originally. In addition, the product will be picked up in a couple of days from the customer as well.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********.

      My issue was actually resolved on Saturday, when I received a call from a district manager, after contacting a different store, located in *******. ******* got the district manager on the phone with me in less than 10 minutes. The Queen ***** location failed to pass on my info to the district manager, despite me requesting it twice.

      I had requested to speak to a district manager, because we were scheduled for the mattress pick up on the 4th, but Queen ***** booked a date that they didn't even give as an option in our phone call, May 11th. When I called the store after the team failed to notify us of a delivery window, they offered to get us in on the 9th, stating that the 4th and the 6th were now full.

      I did have a missed call from the *********** location today, but they did not leave a voicemail, so there was most certainly no message of concern or apologies from them.

      We had an additional issue with the *********** location, when we originally scheduled a mattress inspection, which we called back to cancel. They never alerted the delivery team to the cancellation, so the team showed up at our house. They wasted their time, & could've been with another client, if it wasn't for Queen ***** failing to notify them of the cancellation that we called in several days before.

      Your *********** location is not being truthful to you, & they need to figure out their mess. It's 2024, why on Earth are you not emailing clients confirmation of their inspections/pickup?

      Regardless, after speaking to the District Manager on Saturday, I find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me.  I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.

      I appreciate the ******* location's promptness, and the district manager's professionalism and resolution.

      Regards,

      Hello, 

      Thank you for contacting us. We recommend reaching out to Bed, ****, and Beyond about their return policy. Each platform has a unique return policy and we are not able to override the policy of the platform. We are not able to refund your money directly because we do not have access to process refunds on each marketplace platforms. The refund must come directly from Bed, Bath, and Beyond.

      Thanks,

      I purchased a Brooklyn Bedding Plank mattress through Sleepare in mid-February. It was delivered on Saturday, March 16. The delivery people explained that when they unrolled the mattress, it had some stains on it. They took photos of it and recommended I contact the store and manufacturer. I reported it and sent photos of the stains to the store, who said they would forward it to Brooklyn Bedding. To date, I have heard nothing from either Sleepare or Brooklyn Bedding. When I contacted Brooklyn Bedding about it, they told me to contact the store. I told them I already had but they kept saying they didn't handle consumer complaints about their products. I am questioning whether the mattress is actually new (in spite of its label and packaging).

      Hello. We purchased a brand new mattress in June of 2023. This is a mattress that's mailed to you in a box. The trial period was not long, and we were out of town for part of it. About 6 months after having the mattress, it started to sag a lot towards the middle. When we sleep at night, it feels like we are sinking into a pit. Both me and my husband are not large. He's about 145/5 ft 11. I'm about 120/5ft 8 inches. I've emailed several pictures the company requested b/c it's still under warranty but outside of the trial period. Seeing as how this mattress is less than a year old, and we paid 2K + for it, I'd really like one that will last longer and won't sag w/in less than a year of having it. It does not make for a pleasant sleeping experience. I don't know how else to send pictures and no one will speak with me on the phone about it. I have emails that show the communication. If I can't get a refund, I'd like a replacement or something to offset the fact that we'll probably need to get another mattress again sooner than later due to the sagging.

      Hello,On 10/21/2023 purchased a mattress online. PM ***** On 12/16/2023 well within the return window I placed a request on Plank Mattress site to begin the process for the mattress return and subsequent refund.On 12/29/2023 per the return process instructions I forwarded an email from the pickup which included the receipt for the pickup.Since that time I experienced extreme family hardship resulting into the death of my husband.Last week after reviewing my personal finances I noticed I had not been refunded for the mattress so I reached out via email to inquire of if or when I would be receiving the refund.Unfortunately, that led to a back and forth battle with a PlankMattress associate who refused to look through the email thread and click on the link which I provided twice.I would like to receive my refund or a reasonable explanation as to why I should not.Thanks ****

      We purchased a California king ********************** set from Ecosleep a Brooklyn Bedding Company on 9/29/2021. Last week we noticed a 12 linear area where the latex and wool has separated and the springs are right below the cotton cover. ( see pic). I have sent all pics. Purchase date, purchase amount. Email address and ********************** tags. There was no packing list or receipts in box. They sent receipt via email. I cannot find the email. The customer service rep says no receipt no help. All she needed to do was pull up my order but refused to. No help at all.

      My wife and I purchased two, mattress toppers from Brooklyn Bedding December 5, 2023. Each of our credit cards were charged $379.97 for a total of $795.94. We received the order confirmation and our order numbers are ***** and *****. We have spoken to sales reps three different times and are told they do not understand the delay and will get back to us. We have not heard anything. At this point we do not want a refund, just the mattress toppers. We are starting if this is a scam site.
