Hello. I am looking to buy a new bed frame for my new place.

I have looked into some options and I would like some opinions or other recommendations. I looked into bed frames made in Canada.

The first bed is from EQ3 which is the “Reclaimed Teak Bed”. I have heard great things about the bed and it feels like very luxurious. Unfortunately, it is not available to see in the in the showroom so I do not know what it looks like in person.

The second bed is from “Mobican Bora Wood Bed” which I’ve seen at Scan Design. It is also a very luxurious bed. I heard mixed reviews from the company and it is based in Quebec. Living in Vancouver, it will take around 12 weeks at most to arrive by train.

It is both pricy, but I am willing to pay a little more out of pocket for these kind of beds as it really resonated with me. I also looked into monarch bed and marcel bed from EQ3. It was okay but I don’t like the design too much.

Could you please recommend me how these beds are or any bed frames made in Canada for that matter?

Thank you in advance.

Looking for suggestions on queen bed frame with storage.I am thinking to put my bed close to the wall so I am only looking for front drawers.I saw some good and cheap options in Amazon.Everywhere else it’s 800+.I am ready to invest just want to make sure that’s worth it.

I tried IKEA, I was not impressed.I am in Toronto.Any local store or specific product suggestions?

Also taking suggestions for cooling a queen mattress

Thanks in advance.

I’m in the market for a sofa replacement. I loved my current tufted sofa but it was bonded leather so is at the end of its lifespan. Do you have a sofa you like that has cushions that have retained their structured look? I see so many models that look great on the floor but when I check Marketplace they’ve completely lost their shape. Would love any recommendations you might have that can be purchased in BC.

Looking to find a modular sectional that is fairly comfortable and preferably more on the affordable side. I have been looking into Cozey Ciello for a while but I have read A LOT of comments about it not being as comfortable as advertised so I’d love to hear about people’s experiences with other brands.

A couple things I think I should include: -I’m 6’4’’ so more depth is more feasible. -My budget is around $3-4k although I’d love to keep it closer to $3k. -I need something at least 7’ long.

Looking forward to hear what recommendations people might have!

P.S. I’m located in central NS so open to any local recommendations as well.

What has people's experience with Endy's customer service been over the last few months? My building refused the mattress and I decided to just return it. It has been sitting with the shipping company for a week and I haven't been able get a reply out of Endy Customer Support AT ALL, whether by email, phone, or their supposed "live chat." I sat waiting for an hour and no agent came on. Same with the phone. WHAT IS GOING ON?

Would anyone have a suggestion for a budget sofa with a high back of about 20 or 21 inches? Looking for a 2 seater or maybe 3 seater.

Seems these days lower back sofas are in style but I have injuries to my cervical spine and require a higher back than I've been able to find.

A back-up option is Cozeys 2 seater (believe it's called Altus) just shy of 19 inches seat back height, it's the best I've been able to find in that budget so far. If they have a Black Friday sale I may be able to make the cost work.

Thanks in advance

Looking for some nice, festive Canadian scented candles, stumbled across Milkjar.

Already tried homecoming, canvas, cordova, vancouver candle co, hollow tree etc. love them all, so I don't need other suggestions, just wondering if anyone has tried Milkjar candles and what are your thoughts on them?

Looking for Canadian workout apparel without breaking the bank. No Lululemon suggestions please. It seems my favourite brand Tuff Athletics from Costco has changed branding and is now made overseas 🥹

We are looking into replacing our kitchen countetop. Something that is food grade safe and not made in China (both materials and manufacturing) is very important to us. We would ideally like a product of Canada

Any experience with Hanstone or Cesarstone in this group? Would you recommend either of these? Also want something that won't stain easily.

Thanks

I'm looking to switch out my soap and shampoo for natural options. Any recommendations for Canadian companies with good products? Bonus points for companies in and around Calgary

Edit: a few companies I hadn't heard of, thank you

Edit 2: I went into a Safeway today, they had some unscented company, attitude, and possibly one of the other companies you mentioned on their shelves. It could save you some shipping costs

I am writing this after sitting around (NOT on a couch!) day-after-day, month-after-month... waiting for the Neptune Collection to arrive. *Had to compress all the images into one, as this sub does not allow more than 1 image*

Following a visit to the physical shop in Toronto earlier this May, my boyfriend and I waited up until late June to place the order, as we were both excited to get their new anticipated Sofa-Bed Collection, also known as 'Neptune'.

After placing the order, the shipping date indicated was 'September 2024'.– Having to wait another 3 months to have somewhere to sit already felt like a stretch to me and was very close to ordering the Ciello Collection instead, however, we had already waited a bit and having the 'sofa-bed' feature with our future couch was on top of the list. ** Let me also be clear, we do NOT currently have a couch AT ALL!!**

In August, we finally received a real window for our shipping date, that being 'September 17th-24th' ... Great! ...Fast-forward to September 13th ( ONLY 3 DAYS prior to the estimated arrival date!), and we received an email with no further explanations that the couch would be delivered LATE October. –Of course, we contacted them to get an explanation, ( screenshot incl. ) to which they responded, that they had encountered 'unexpected delays' at their production in THAILAND!!! ( Yes, that's right) and there shouldn't be ANY further delays; In fact, quoted from their next email was "We have sent you the 'WORST' case scenario."

So at this point, we think that maybeee, just maybe, they would redeem themselves by not coming close to the 'worst' case scenario. WRONG!- We emailed them mid-October, as we are to receive a confirmation number to track the order when the order ships, so since we had not received anything, we thought we should check-in and see what's up! AND, GUESS WHAT ?! The new date for the order to ship became "EARLY NOVEMBER!" ( Screenshot incl.) and my response ALSO included, I thought this was enough!- But as a gesture of Goodwill, they have offered a 10%... BITCH PLEASE!

IF You read my response, you would have noticed, that I simply HAD to mention their excessive advertisement!!!!- HOW ON EARTH are you able to shove your products down my throat ( and everyone's throat for that matter and NOT CAPABLE OF FULFILL ONE SIMPLE ORDER!!!??

Funny thing, we were waiting to get the pieces already ordered FIRST, to then get more pieces to add to the couch, but here we are!!!!- I NEED ADVICE, because my thoughts are clearly clouded by frustration!!!! - If I knew this delay would continue after their email in September, we would have cancelled the ordered right there and then, but obviously they were telling us what we wanted to hear and not doing what they need to do!

Like, HOW and WHY are they only offering 10%??!! ITS bloody INSULTING!!!!! Why haven't they offered us another model? or a gift-card to their shop that would actually buy us something tangible right now!!!??

A nightmare. So many options, so many many negative reviews across the board for everything on the lower/mid end.

I was looking at IKEA, silk and snow, and some other bed frame options and overall it wasn't great.

I'm seeking a box spring bread because I have one with a little foam and it works mostly alright. All the foam type beds I worry would be too warm in my apartment that is scorching hot.

So, any suggestions for a mattress and bed frame in Canada? Budget is 1000-1500 (perhaps even 1700).

I'm obsessed with strawberry creams, lol. Preferably dark chocolate but will accept milk chocolate. For example of what l'm looking for, imagine the quality Street strawberry creams.

Hey, I am a new puppy owner, and I came across an ad for Colas kitchen based in Toronto. It seems cool cause you can customize dog food based on your dogs specific needs then deliver it, but I wanted to see if anyone has tried their food before or had any bad/good opinions?

this is their website: https://colaskitchen.com/

PS. I asked this in a couple dog threads and everyone thought I was a bot cause i havent been active, but i just dont use it much so pls know im a human lol 😭

Purple Moose socks are made in Ontario and I am satisfied w the price. they're not too expensive and have sales often. their actually made in Canada collection are really good and they have a lot of socks in all kinds of colours and nice materials. They are the only socks I buy now and I am giving them to my fam for xmas. the only thing is I find some of their OSFM socks that are more workboot style are too big for my feet (size 7 women) but I will give them to my brother instead.

I am currently trying to build my "capsule wardrobe" as I'm sick of constantly have to buy things last minute for certain events like interviews, nice dinners, or other times where I have to look put together.

I do like investing in quality pieces and hate fast fashion. I'm mindful of build quality, material and classic styles (so no "trends").

I recently purchased ankle boots from Poppy Barley because I went to a pop up and the shoes were pretty comfortable. I usually hate buying online, but since I tried a few pairs in the store, I figured why not try. I bit the bullet and paid $400 for them, the most expensive pair of boots I've ever purchased. It was a hard decision for me but I know buying cheaper boots may mean that they are not as comfortable or long lasting.

I'm not entirely familiar with the quality of the brand and I know that reviews on the website may be skewed in their favour.

Does anyone have experience with the brand and how good the quality is? How long do they last and what is the upkeep?

I hope I didn't get scammed and that it's actually a decent brand. I've exlpored other brands like La Canadiene and Thursday Shoe Co. but they didn't have styles I liked.

I’m looking to purchase a Cozey Luna sectional. I could see reviews in this sub about their other collections like Altus, Celio, Atmosphere etc. Has anyone purchased Luna? How did it hold up?

I'm really looking for some Christmas calendars that are worth the money

like chocolate or candy or coffee or drinks... wouldn't be opposed to a buildable Christmas scene in a Lego or Lego knock off theme. I'm not a wine or a beer person, and do have celiac disease so and that is definitely a consideration for the chocolate, lol

Does anyone have any ideas?

I recently picked up a king-size Douglas foam mattress thanks to very positive experiences I read about here. The matching foundation was not available at the time, and remains out of stock.

Any suggestions for wooden slat-type foundation? We have a wrought iron frame that we love and want to use with the mattress; we are not looking for a base or frame.

I have been in desperate need of a new couch. I'm interested in the atmosphere from cozey. I like the modularity as were renting and hoping to buy in the near future so it would make moving easier. I also like to switch up furniture or sometimes have to move stuff around as my toddler discovers new ways to get into stuff she shouldn't.

Do the pieces separate easily? Is there a way to connect them?

Does it hold its shape? I like that theres storage options and that its low to the ground.

My current couch is all torn up underneath bc the cat discovered he could hold onto the fabric underneath a slide around on his back like the worst roomba ever. So for our new couch we want to make sure there's no space for unwanted guests underneath.

ISO Cozey Neptune review, model looks great and I'm thinking about buying

We are in the market for a sectional and are deciding between the Cozy Ciello or an Article sectional (maybe Sven or Leigh). If anyone has either of these-- can you speak to the quality and comfort? They are all around the same price point-- about $3500. We really can't afford much more than that. Would be happy to receive other recommendations as well!

Hi,

I'm looking for stores like Victoire Boutique that have a curated collection of Canadian-made brands. Plus points for stores located in Quebec.

Self-explanatory enough.

Hello,

My partner (35F) and I (35F) are roughly 110 lbs and 145 lbs respectively. I’ve had a seahorse mattress all my life but can sleep on anything. My partner also can sleep on anything as long as it’s not too soft.

We went mattress shopping and everything almost felt the same kind of “fine”, the only noticeable difference was the amount of “sinking in” we felt. We did agree that a medium firm would be the best bet for us.

We want to spend less than $800 on a mattress and we are enticed by the online mattress promotions that give sleep bundles.

I’ve done a lot of digging and see that there are noticeable differences between all foam and hybrid so we are definitely leaning towards hybrids if at all possible for this budget.

There are a tonne of paid reviews online so I am wary and turning to Reddit for anecdotal experience of each mattress available.

Please let us know your recommendations!

Huge price difference, both Canadian companies promising similar features. I want quality and comfort that will stand against kids and pets so I’m willing to pay the price but not if it isn’t worth it! Anyone have any reviews on either couch?

We are a military family and have lived in 4 different cities in 6 years, so moving couches when you never know what space you will be in, has been incredibly frustrating and then we end up with pieces that don't fit well. A modular sectional may really help solve our problem and are ready to invest in a well made piece with these on our check list:

-removable cushions and covers (dogs and kids)

-multiple configurations (including separated into either a love seat and sofa for example or large sectional all together)

-Hopefully made in Canada with good delivery service across the country. A return policy if needed and good customer service (perhaps this isn't a thing and please let me know if it's not)

-actually comfortable, a few we have tried in store look nice but are not comfortable at all.

• perhaps an upgradable stain resistant fabric.

-colours such as navy or gray.

-a good depth couch, I want to curl up on my couch lol.

Thank you!
