What's the difference between ENDY and HAVEN mattresses?
Thank you Dawn Crawford on Facebook for your question about the differences between Haven and Endy mattresses. I'm happy to help clarify!
###The Endy Mattress:
- **Construction:** Endy mattresses are made entirely from 100% polyurethane foam, which is designed to provide a specific level of comfort and support through its foam layers. The manufacturing process involves gluing together three pre-cut foam sections, all enclosed in a pre-fabricated zipper cover made from polyester.
- **Price Range:** Typically, Endy mattresses are priced between $700 and $900. They often promote discounts, such as a 15% off offer that has been available since 2020.
- **Production Advantages:** The straightforward design of Endy mattresses allows for easy scaling of production, meaning the assembly can be managed with an entry-level labor force. Additionally, Endy mattresses ship out the same day you order, ensuring fast and free delivery.
- **Ownership:** Endy is a division of Sleep Country, which is valued at $1.7 billion and owned by Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, a venture capital firm.
### The Haven Mattress:
- **Bespoke Production:** Unlike Endy, Haven mattresses are handmade and produced fresh to order. Each mattress is crafted by a skilled, unionized workforce, allowing for customization to better meet individual needs. For instance, you can choose a 6" tall Haven for a top bunk or a luxurious 14" pillow top for a resort-like feel.
- **Materials:** Haven mattresses use renewable soya oil and are designed with natural cooling bamboo in the covers. The production incorporates locally sourced materials and carries the "Product of Canada" designation, emphasizing quality and sustainability.
- **Coil Count:** When Haven offers coil options, they typically provide around 2400 pocket coils, which is significantly more than the standard 800 found in many mattresses. This higher coil count allows for better pressure point adjustment and reduced motion transfer.
- **Direct-to-Consumer Model:** Haven is 100% family-owned and operated in Canada, with production facilities in Mississauga and Calgary. The goal is to provide an alternative to the expensive organic or luxury handmade beds typically sold in boutique shops, allowing customers to purchase directly from the factory floor without the high costs associated with national chains or retail locations. While Haven does not offer % off discounts, savings can be found through bundled shipping options.
### Summary:
In essence, the **Endy mattress** is a mass-produced option that emphasizes convenience and plush comfort, primarily through foam or hybrid designs. On the other hand, the **Haven mattress** represents a more significant investment, focusing on bespoke craftsmanship and quality materials, ensuring that more of your sleep dollar is invested directly into the mattress itself rather than the distribution chain.
If you value exceptional sleep quality and personalized options, we hope you'll consider Haven. Please feel free to reach out if you have any more questions or need further assistance!
