DISCOUNT FOAM has moved! Still on Fraser Street, this business has an excellent knowledge base, 30 plus year family business, they rely on repeat business so they never screw you over and they don't sell you what you don't need. I have been going here for my foam needs since the 1990s and have sent many friends and family there and all have been happy. Anyone complaining on reviews, in my opinion did not follow up properly with them as they have bent over backwards to be of help to me and others. They're still in business because they're honest, kind, have a variety of foam products many foam stores don't carry and they do custom foam cuts for your needs. The store itself doesn't have lots of bells and whistles, as the owner is intent on passing on savings to their customers. You want a place you can trust won't upsell or sell you something you don't need? Discount Foam is the reliable choice. No they didn't ask or pay me to write this. Check out the new store - since it moved - just down the street on Fraser. I always like tell people about a good thing! read more

See all

Jon!!! we walked into this store and Jon made everything super easy for us, we were in and out in quickly with all the foam we needed. Best experience ever!! read more

This business has recently moved locations! The new location is 4814 Fraser St in Vancouver. It's still the same owners and the same great service. Can't recommend this place enough read more

TLDR ( the short ) - EXCELLENT prices, super comfortable mattresses, VERY knowledgeable in actual product detail, certipur certified foam (no bullshit material, chemicals), simple, easy to buy, HONEST, sells foam, latex, memory foam. Also sells variety of pillows, feather, latex, polyester, or cheap throws ( he'll tell ya ). I've slept on the mattress for over a month. The mattresses are a real deal for a great price. These guys won't upsell you if you don't need it. *** Product review Here's what I bought, a king and queen sized 6" 2lb, 39 ILD, high density polyurethane foam core, and a 2" 2lb high density egg crate (shape of the foam) as the support layer/topper. So what the hell does this mean? It means, Jon, could actually tell me exactly what was in all the mattresses, the quality of material, the differences between different foam density's, compression ranges, and also comparisons to latex, memory foam and as well as what type of mattress a sleeper like me may need. I'd like to see some big brand mattress stores even try to answer some of the questions I had asked. When I walked in, Jon asked me about what the mattress was for, how long I'd be sleeping on it for, and what type of sleeper I was. Instantly he had a mattress recommendation for me. But I wasn't satisfied just yet. I wanted to compare some more mattresses and really find out more about his product knowledge, and learn more about mattresses myself. Jon did not disappoint. Jon kept it simple, you buy the core, and you buy the topper, flip it in fall, spin in spring, and that'll last you a decade, with the availability to change the topper every 4 or so years, very inexpensively, if youd like. Still, he let me try a firmer one (higher ILD, and a softer one (lower ILD). He really set the example of what it'd be like, If I had wanted a firmer mattress, similar to what everyone thinks they want when shopping for a mattress, by letting me imagine myself sleeping in various positions, and seeing how comfortable that really would be. It wasn't. Not only did Jon give me exemplary customer service, he kept me to update through out the whole process, especially during COVID times, made it easy for me to buy, pay and receive the mattress itself. Actually, I didn't pick up right away on the day of the delivery.... My own fault and stupidity, yet Jon had waited around and called me again after quite a bit of time to tell me he was still at the front door, with my mattress. Jon, thanks so much, it is greatly appreciated your product knowledge, service, and also your patience. I will be recommending all my friends this store. read more

Even though previous reviews have mentioned superior customer experience I was still surprised at how helpful and professional they were! My under $20 purchase was treated as though it was a multi thousand dollar project. Options were presented with a recommendation followed by precise measurement and cutting. Needless to say I was extremely pleased. read more

When I saw all the five star ratings I immediately got suspicious. Are these guys cooking the ratings? Based on my recent experience there I'd have to say no, they're not. They deserve the praise. I came in looking for a custom covered foam cushion for the seat of my car. He came out, measured it up, gave me a very reasonable quote, and I told him to go ahead. The next day I got a call and the cusion was ready! He admitted that was an unusually quick turnaround but I was impressed nonetheless. And the cushion is perfect. I now have a go-to place for foam. thanks! read more

I know absolutely nothing about foam, and have never cared to learn more about it. However, when I needed some foam to help fix some furniture, I was sure glad to find out Discount Foam exists. If you need foam, this is the place to go. Period! Blending in with the many shops of Fraser Street, Discount Foam is a gem of a find if you ever need/want foam products for camping, beds, couches, etc. Discount Foam is locally owned and family operated for over 20 years. The friendliness, openness and knowledge of the owner/operator about his products is outstanding. When you first enter the shop, you will see the shop is true to the second word of its name-foam is literally packed everywhere in the shop from floor to ceiling. Shortly after seeing all the foam and your brain starts to realize that there are so many type of foam made, you'll be greeted by the owner (John). From my experience, after being greeted the owner will just start chatting with you and eventually, but still quickly, ask what brings you into the shop today? Then the fun begins. For any need, you'll be given a number of choices to choose from. For myself, I needed new foam for a futon that had gone completely flat. I sat and laid on many different foams of different thickness and densities to find the one I would want. At one point, the owner said, "It's good that you're trying the foam, but really sit on the foam like you would at home. If you jump on the couch, jump on the foam. Don't be shy." So, I did just that. I threw myself, body-slammed, jumped up and down, and many other actions on the foam to see if it would withstand the test of time in my house. Eventually, I opted for a high-density, antimicrobial foam. The futon I was getting the foam for had a slightly odd shaped cover. No problem at all! All foam bought from Discount Foam can be cut into any size and shape you would like. I was wondering what the charge and time would be to have this done. The response I got was "well, since there's a holiday on Friday....5 minutes and free". With the sense of humor and great service I was getting, I did something I virtually never do, I bought the foam on the spot without checking other stores. Within 10 minutes I was headed out the door with my futon cover now filled with 6" foam that is comfy and durable. Since I went to Discount Foam a few weeks back, I have looked into other shops that sell foam (just for curiosity). I am pleased to say, the exact same foam at other stores cost anywhere between $50-100 more than at Discount Foam. To add to this, I've sent 2 of my friends that needed foam for a couch or a camping mattress, and both received the same great service and great quality as I did. There is no question in my mind that when I want some new foam for pillows, a new camping mattress or some other foam product, I'll be coming back. My fiancée said she'll be going sometime in the near future, as they sell yoga foam blocks for ~$10 (that's a heck of a lot cheaper than stores catering to athletic/yoga wear *cough* Lululemon *cough*). If you know nothing about foam, and I'm pretty sure that's 95%+ of society, and you want a good product for a decent price, with friendly service, go to Discount Foam. read more

Sunday morning, when I wake up, this is the first thing on my mind. Foam. Foam. Foam. (And you thought I would say brunch) Really, without Yelp, I would have easily overspent on the cushy, mushy, yet firm stuff. And would have not had the pleasure of meeting Jon, the foam guru. That's my title for him, at least. I walked in with my project and after a few minutes, he had it sized, cut and had given many more pointers on foam, on my project, and my projects project, as well. For what should have been a quite bland experience, I was really impressed. Jon, you've got my full foam business from here on in. read more

These guys know everything about foam. Totally fair and honest. No frills shop packed with exactly what you're looking for - foam. Sleeping, sitting whatever. They have it at a good price read more

I never knew there were so many different types of foam until I came to Discount Foam and Furniture on Fraser Street. The store is super easy to find thanks to it's bright green awning. I'm currently training for a half marathon, and I was on the hunt for a foam roller to work my sore muscles. I decided to come here first since I didn't need anything fancy. The owner of the store, John, is super friendly, and was able to find a black foam cylinder and cut it to my desired length (2.5 feet long). Therefore, I got a custom foam roller for $28, which I thought was a great deal! They also stock foam bricks here. If you're on the hunt for a yoga brick, it's way cheaper here, and you can get it cut to the exact dimensions/thickness you want. Note: I went to Marshall's afterwards, and they had a similar foam roller to the one I bought here, but it was a) the same price, and b) too short for my needs. If you need a foam roller, go to Discount Foam! read more

Welcome to the unknown world of foam ! Did you know that there were SOOOOoo many types of foams ?! I didn't. It's amazing. What's even better ? they can cut them in any size / shape that you want !! AND you get to choose the kind you like by sitting on them as much as you want :-) Now that's a great store to go to: you spend your time sitting, laying down, chatting.... and asking questions. Cause of course, we don't know anything about all those crazy products. And the more you think about foam, the more projects you think about. I ended up buying the foam for my outdoor patio (which was the reason for me coming in this shop). But I also got some foam for a baby book I'm creating for a friend of mine and some other foam for padding some changing pads :-) I'm just in love with this shop now ! Too bad they don't have beenbags feelers, I would have got that too :-) read more

I got my brand new latex foam mattress and nice wooden bed frame delivered today and I couldn't be happier. Jon and Sean were both so awesome! Answering all the questions I could think of and helping me make a really informed purchase. (they know ALOT about foam and are both super friendly!) I also found the price to be more affordable than at other places selling latex foam mattresses. Jon (the owner) was right on time for the delivery, the setup of the bed was swift, and the whole experience chatting with him was great. :) I have now been lying on my new bed for a few hours and it feels wonderful! I should have switched to a foam mattress years ago! I recommend discount foam to anyone looking for a new mattress (or people looking for any kind of foam for their foam needs) read more

I bought a bunch of different kinds of foam here, and everybody was incredibly friendly and helpful. John (the owner) explained the different kinds of foam and how they worked, cut them to the sizes I needed, and even helped me carry it out to my car :) I think all my foam needs are met now for the next millennia, but if I ever DO need some couch cushions re-filled or a mattress topper or boat cushions cut, I'll definitely be back! (Also: ask them about the movies they've done set-work for!) read more

I believe any place that has exceptional customer service deserves 5 stars!! I bought a new tool box and wanted to get a cheaper alternative foam to the expensive insert you could have bought with the tool box, so I researched and found this place. I came in and the gentleman who helped me was super friendly and funny. Listened to what I was doing and even gave me some great advice to what I was doing. In the end, I left a happy customer and got exactly what i needed. Now I have a really sweet tool box!! Thank you! read more

Both John and Sean have been so helpful determining and supplying all my foam needs. I have bought two beds and received their help covering five sofa seats. They have been generous with their time, knowledge and materials. Best service for this product. read more

I found John and Discount Foam about 5 years ago ~ when I was looking for a lower lumbar support pillow ~ and was horrified by the prices I saw in orthopedic stores and other top foam shops. It is located on the lower end of Fraser, near E.44 ave ~ lots of parking in behind the store in adjoining lots, plus street parking. Upon entering, it is a tad messy and chaotic, they carry A LOT of types of foam, and they're stacked up to the ceiling in parts. Mattresses, pillows, camping foamies ~ this place is one-stop foam shopping for everyone! John is VERY friendly, and very knowledgeable about foam ~ explaining the different types, and densities I was asking about. I got a large lumbar support pillow with a burgundy zippered cover for only $69+tax~ other stores wanted $100+ for the same item. I recently went back for a support foam mattress ~ John brought out 3, getting me to lie on a wooden bed in the show area, and try them out for personal preference. I needed an odd size he did not have in stock, so he custom cut me the size I needed ~ on the spot. This mattress again was 30% less than the competition and I could not have asked for more friendly, and knowledgeable service. I cannot recommend Discount Foam highly enough ~ the best prices and best service anywhere! read more

You're not going to find a more fairly-priced service and quality product in Vancouver than Discount Foam. Have used them several times over the years, always with excellent results. John completely refreshed our couch, back cushions and bench seat with the perfect type of foam and fit. Thought it had reached the end of its days, but thanks to John's professionalism and skill, it is comfortable and beautiful once again. Saved ourselves a couple of grand! Wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

I bought foam from Discount Foam two years ago for a baby bassinet project. John was very friendly and talked me out of buying a more expensive thicker foam. Not something someone would do if they were trying to just make a buck, but someone who is interested in good customer service. He custom made it to fit the bassinet and I took it home to the Yukon and made a nice cover. I am now on my way back to BC and will be headed to Discount Foam to purchase another piece of foam for my dog bed! read more

Like Lee, I was a little skeptical about the ratings but a phone call quickly changed that. My foam problem was sofa-related: I have a leather couch in great shape, except for the cushions, which, well, lost their shape. Someone told me I should try an upholstery shop and Yelp led me to a few as well as DF. After a few upholstery shop inquiries...My call with Sean convinced me this is what I needed. My dealings with Sean and John were superb. Not dirt cheap but I'm absolutely convinced I got premium foam value for my dollars. I just came home and placed my new cushions (which arrived ahead of schedule) and I'm *literally* giddy with delight, on a sofa that feels brand new, supportive and ready for all my tv bingeing needs. I'm now thinking of more home projects that might require foam solutions. Thank you, guys! read more

John delivered and exchanged a mattress to our house (x2) w/ no catch. I really appreciated it. Will come back for another mattress. Extremely quick transaction and you get what you pay for. Thanks! read more

I needed foam for a DIY project, and a friend suggested this place. The foam guy didn't have a big enough piece so he cut and glued to my exact dimensions and knew exactly what I needed. Besides his incredible knowledge, he is full of energy, friendly and offered great advice for my project. It was actually quite busy the day I went in, but it was done the same afternoon. Highly recommended for anything foam! You never know when you'll need it. He also sells pillow cushions at a lower cost than other stores I've seen. read more

Came here on Friday for a custom sized foam booster seat so my small dog would be tall enough to see out my car window. The owner was very nice and gave me a greeeeat deal. After sitting through a painful morning at the dentist and then coming here after; he really made my day. Thank you. Sorry I left so quickly. I felt crossed eyed bc my right eye was numb from the dentist! I highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone. read more

I had a great experience here getting my couch cushions redone. Sean was very helpful and friendly. There are two parking spots off the alley in the back! read more

These guys are simply the best thing since sliced bread. Don't go to the OTHER foam shop in Vancouver - you know the mega corp who drove every other independent shop out of business! Go to the last of the small local business owners who care about their customers and provide terrific service and prices... Love them! read more

Jon was very helpful in answering my questions about foam and wood storage, thanks Jon!! I have also bought a couple of foam mattresses from him in the past and he was very helpful and his prices are reasonable. This man knows the value of customer service. read more

Absolutely the best show in town. Best prices, information, product knowledge, customer service and to top it all, best taste in music. Can't recommend these guys highly enough. Wasted a day walking round other shops and came right back to this spot. Superb. read more

The experience of buying new cushions for my couch was made not only easy and affordable, but fun as well. I wish I had more couches, I'd totally come back over and over. read more

This no-frills foam place is THE one to go to for all of your home and business needs. We have a Restoration Hardware Maxwell full-size sectional from about 10 years ago. Because it was down-stuffed, the cushions were all deflated as the down settled to the bottoms, like bags of chips! Finally, with this pandemic, I had time to sit down and call around to find out the best way to 'revive' the couch without having to buy a new one, while also preserving the original look and feel of it. I called a few places, and Jon was by far, the most knowledgeable and professional. He knows foam!! His quote was 1/3 his competition's, and he was able to provide accurate pricing on-the-fly! What I was MOST impressed with was when we brought our cushions in for him to look at, he gave us a quote that we quickly approved, but he came out minutes later to tell us he had made a mistake and his quote was a few hundred dollars too high. Who does that nowadays? He's been in business for 40 years and I can see why. His shop is conveniently located, but it is 'minimalist', which is probably why he can give us the best pricing. He is willing/able to do everything himself, even the messy unstuffing and stuffing of cushions. A great, honest, hard-working and smart guy. He has COVID-19 guidelines he adheres to, yet is still able to offer the good old-fashioned service. Most importantly, the cushions look amazing, were done SO quickly, and our family room looks so much tidier. No complaints from the kids who really like to flop on it. Highly recommend this business. read more

Was looking for a "Topper" for the bed in our new trailer. Spoke to Discount Foam on the phone and came over. The owner of the store was really friendly and when we looked at the trailer cushions I bought with me he told me "I could sell you this topper, but you don't really need it. These are high quality cushions and anything else is unnecessary at this time. Come back in a few years, when you need the foam renewed." What else could you ask for, but a salesman who tells you not to buy? That feels like real honesty. He even gave me a bit of foam to fill a small gap in the cushions and helped me back out to my car. It was so refreshing. Its the least I can do is to write a review and say thanks for saving me $175-$200 that I might have paid. Oh yes, the time to sew a cover on foam would have been substantially less than other stores. I'd go back here in a heartbeat. read more

Very very easy to work with! I have a very hard to find eggshell foam curved multipart pillow that had compressed over the years and was looking for an insert for it and they made one for about $11 on the spot! read more

John measured the cushions carefully, showed me how to carefully remove the old latex foam (so as not to damage the covers), how to wash the covers, and then he insisted he put the new foam in for me - again so as not to damage the old covers. A-1 service, friendly and witty to boot. read more

Great place for foam beds. Well priced and doesn't try to up sell you. Just describe your needs and he will find what beats fits your description. I was most impressed with the service, which was outstanding. The guy is super friendly, you can tell he loves his business. He had my foam bed already on the floor, wrapped and ready to go before I walked in. read more

Great store!! John is the best!!! I talked to him on the phone and got his advice on a great foam for my dogs to go into my vehicle. They made a canvas cover and it was ready to go in a week!!! Love this store!! Amazing service !! read more

A quick phone call was all it took to set me on the right path for my new futon. The service here is honest and friendly. They are clearly experts. I didn't make a purchase, but you better believe they will get my money next time! read more

John is great; kind and informative; both I and my sister are happy customers at this shop. I remember when John's dad owned it; he was great to deal with as well; looks like he passed on his business skills to his son. Highly recommended. read more

You want to know about FOAMs, go see Jon and ask. He is so knowledgeable and informative and won't just try to sell you for the sake of a sale. He will tell you about the softness or firmness and the different qualities of foam you want to purchase. If you are considering sleeping on foam or replacing foam for cushions on a sofa, I would recommend Jon. My parents have also used Discount Foam for their sofa. I have been very happy with this shop and can say Jon is a good human being and person. read more

Extremely personal and expert advice and service. This store delivers with informed and helpful staff. A huge range of bed and foam products. Impressive! Ellen read more

These people are so friendly and helpful... I bought my uncomplicated latex mattress for about half the price of other mattress stores at this shop. Love it and now I am getting a soft latex topper. I will go nowhere else for a fresh and honest opinion... They are as helpful as they can be and it pays off. Lovely family business... read more

I've been back twice and dealt with both Sean and John. These are terrific, community-minded guys who have great prices and extremely good knowledge of their product. It's a no fuss type of place. They can order foam to fit your precise measurements, and there's also plenty of foam in stock. Their customer service and just general kindness is exceptional. Thanks for the great foam. My teak couch has never felt better. read more

You couldn't ask for better service anywhere. Not only do they know EVERYTHING about foam but go out of their way to make sure you get exactly what you need at the best price. read more
