Kingsdown offers mattresses ranging from mid-level to high-end options. In Canada, Kingsdown sells its mattresses only through third-party retailers like Sleep Country, Costco, and Leon’s, which means that you’ll have to order through a third-party retailer’s website or visit the store in person.
It also means that there’s no consistent sleep trial or return policy for any Kingsdown mattress you buy. You’ll have to examine the sleep trial and return policy for the specific retailer instead. Some, like Leon’s and Sleep Country, have exchange-only return policies—you can trade your mattress in for a different model, but you won’t receive a refund.
Most mattress companies will offer a fixed 10-year warranty that covers manufacturing defects. Instead, Kingsdown has different warranties for different mattresses, indicated by a code printed on the law label. Warranty terms can be as long as 20 years, or as short as just 1 year. If you’re thinking about buying a Kingsdown mattress, you should research its warranty code to determine how long the coverage period is.
Kingsdown mattresses are known for their luxury appeal. However, even their mid-range models often cost over $2,000 CAD, with high-end options reaching $6,000 CAD or more. Compared to mattress companies like Logan & Cove, which sell directly to the consumer and at a lower price, some Kingsdown mattress prices may be outside the reach of many Canadian shoppers.

Kingsdown mattresses are made by Kingsdown, a mattress company formerly known as the Mebane Bedding Company. Kingsdown makes a variety of mid-level to high-end foam, innerspring, and hybrid mattresses. In Canada, Kingsdown mattresses can’t be bought directly from the manufacturer. They must be purchased through third-party retailers like Sleep Country, Costco, or Leon’s.
Kingsdown mattresses tend to perform well in third-party engineer testing (commissioned by us). However,they’re often more expensive than similar mattresses from other brands. For example, take a look at Logan & Cove.
With 4,500+ five-star customer reviews, a BBB Rating of “A+”, and a Trustpilot Rating of “Excellent”, Logan & Cove and its parent company, GoodMorning.com are rated highly by customers.
Logan & Cove’s mattresses come with advanced cooling features and zoned support for a cooling and comfortable night’s sleep. They’re also more accessibly priced than Kingsdown mattresses—Logan & Cove Choice is available at only $999 for a queen size.
The price for a Kingsdown mattress varies depending on the model. However, the company’s mid-range offerings often cost $2,000 CAD or more, and its most expensive mattresses can cost over $6,000 CAD. This puts many of the company’s mattresses outside the reach of many Canadians. (In comparison, brands like Logan & Cove start at just $799.)
Kingsdown mattresses are sold in Canada through third-party retailers such as Sleep Country, Costco, and Leon’s.
No, Kingsdown mattresses sold in Canada do not have fiberglass. Fiberglass is a common fire safety feature in mattresses made outside of Canada, especially less expensive ones. It can be significant health hazard if fiberglass particles get outside of a mattress.

According to experts, a good mattress should last 7–10 years. However, this can vary depending on the materials used in the mattress’s construction and how frequently it is used. There’s no strict rule, but if you notice visible sagging, lumps, or a decline in comfort and support, it may be time to replace it. Regular maintenance and proper care can help extend a mattress’s lifespan.

We think you should consider Logan & Cove. The company’s entry-level model, Logan & Cove Choice, features a cooling nanofibre cover, ecoLuxe® cooling gel foam, sturdy edge support foam, and a three-zone coil support system—all at just $999 for a queen size. You’ll also get a much longer 365-night sleep trial, a generous 15-year warranty, and a free bedding bundle with your purchase.
If you want even more comfort and added layers of contouring micro-coils, you can upgrade to the Euro-top Logan & Cove Frontier or Logan & Cove Pinnacle.
