What if I have a Return?
WARRANTY RETURNS ONLY : DIY mattress does not have a easy return policy. We source our components in volume from the #1 suppliers and manufacturers in the world and pass the savings along to you. FACT: The online mattress sellers have generous return policies which are built into the price of each mattress. Thus, you are paying a higher price to cover another customer’s return mattress.

The first step in building your DIY mattress is finding a mattress that you like, either on line, or in a mattress store where you have actually experienced the comfort. The second step is to revisit DIYMattress.com and build that mattress with premium components that are in that mattress.
