Went in one day last fall to order custom foam pieces for a modular opposing couch set up that could transform into a huge bed for my Airstream camper. He did it!!!! Even recommended the best firmness for both seating and sleeping. You will have to put in some time to break it in for sleeping but the work was just as advertised and he also delivered to me in LIC. The fabric is great as well. Be patient as the time for completion might take a tad longer than expected. But the results were excellent! read more

This is my second mattress purchase with Dixie Foam. Excellent mattress and incredible customer service! I recommend them wholeheartedly for price, value and quality. read more

I bought my third Dixie Foam mattress a couple of months ago; my previous one was over 20 years old (!) and still firm and supportive. The bed I'm currently sleeping on is a convertible sofa, and the mattress replaces a worn, lumpy futon that was years past its prime--I had only been sleeping in this bed for a few months, and was paying for it in spades! I was more than impressed when Mark--trim, vanDyke beard--showed up to deliver it himself. He had finished this mattress himself, and delivered it before the weekend! He carried it up all 100 stairs in my building; I'm on the sixth floor of a walkup. He made me an extra-firm, which I wasn't totally enamored with at first because I had been sleeping on my back for several years. I have to sleep on my side with this mattress, and it turns out that's a preferable position to sleeping on one's back--according to Dr. Michael Greger of Nutrition Facts: https://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-best-sleeping-position-for-glymphatic-flow-in-the-brain/ --because it allows lymph drainage. It's been just great; I wake refreshed, and it's an awesome value, and locally made. (I naturally had to check the prices of similar mattresses, and feel great at having gotten a great, durable mattress at a reasonable price.) Thanks so much, Mark! read more

Great bed at a reasonable price. Nice working face to face with a small business owner.

Disgraceful customer service, absolutely the pits, not just now but for the past year or more (when I bought two top-end mattresses from here.) The owner -- Mark -- seems to be the only employee. He can't be bothered to reply to calls, polite texts etc. Or to make deliveries on a timely schedule. All you'll get is his protest that "I'm a busy guy"! I've bought half a dozen Dixie mattresses over the decades and was a great fan -- no more. I see Amina A, Tim T and other reviewers echo my frustration. But clearly Mark, the owner, can't be bothered and that says everything. read more

We've used Dixie Foam mattresses for years. They are consistently the best. We both need a extra firm mattress and their's is perfect. Mark is a great guy and really treats his customers great. You can't go wrong here, excellent product and the price is right! read more

I got a mattress here and was not really that happy with it in that it is not that comfortable. I am sleeping on my couch which I like better. The delivery date was postponed 3 times. I think the excuses I was being given were b.s. When it came it had a terrible odor which lasted a few days. Planning to give it away. Bad experience. read more

I have a purchased several beds over the past 15 years from Dixie Foam. Recently 2 full sofa beds. Extremely comfortable, great quality. I have been extremely satisfied with the quality. Prices are good too. Mark the owner has always been extremely helpful. It is all made in house. read more

My wife and I bought a new Thermopedic Queen from DixieFoam in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, which as you know is the Garden Spot of the Universe. I bought mattresses from Dixie Foam first in 1988 (twins for a pair of captain beds for my kids, one of which is still around and being used by my granddaughter), then again in 2005 (a Queen with a pillow top for myself) that's probably still being slept on somewhere by someone (I sold my bed and mattress in 2009), and when my wife and I needed a new queen size mattress following a move, we both drove out to Greenpoint to check out current models, and my wife insisted on the Thermopedic. I would argue with her, but I long ago realized 1. such an argument over taste would be useless, and 2. as long as the mattress is in the firm ballpark, I'm OK (and this one was, with a cushioning top layer). The price was less than other mattresses we had looked at, we were able to lock up delivery in no time, and shop owner Mark was helpful. Sure, some of the beds in a box you see may be good, and most are more costly. But if you're looking for a good mattress at a moderate price, I can recommend DixieFoam. I could get my daughter and granddaughter to recommend DixieFoam too, but my daughter hates writing such reviews and my granddaughter's not yet three years old. She REALLY hates writing reviews. read more

The products are fine. I've been a customer for more than 20 years. What I can't tolerate is such poor customer service. This is what's posted on the Dixie Foam website: "For customer service, to speak to a Dixie Foam specialist or general inquiries contact us and we will be in touch shortly usually within 6 hours." 6 days is more like it...if you ever get a response. Not acceptable. read more

I love waking up every morning in my new king sized bed! I got the foam pillows to go with the mattress, I really like the "noodle" pillow. I see a lot of internet-based foam mattresses gaining popularity, but what good is a 10 year warranty from a company that's only been around for a year or so and might not make it? I would much rather have something manufactured in America, and support a local Greenpoint business. What a great investment! read more

Do not buy! I purchased a pillow from this firm more than six months ago--Aug 22, 2022-and I have not received it to date. My inquiries and complaints to the company have elicited no response. read more

Michael, Thank u for my 40+ years of sleeping well. A long time ago before the internet, I saw aDixi foam ad in the village voice-tried it out and was hooked on your super firm ever since. Our bodies change over the years, and sometimes we need to be open to trying different options. A few months ago I was thinking it may be time for a new mattress-I had already rotated it as well as flipping it over but it was not giving me the support I needed, wearing out after 18 years of use. At about the same time, while on vacation to Florida, a friend of mine who was also in the market for a new mattress was showing me recent consumer reports ratings for "Casper Mattress", although he had not tried one. When I mentioned Dixi Foam, he brushed me aside saying consumer reports had not even bothered to test it. To make a long story short, I insisted we we check out the Casper mattress in a Mattress Firm store in Florida, which fell short of mr friends and my expectations. After accepting my advice & visiting Dixi Foam my friend ordered his first mattress- as well as referring a third friend. And as for a different option for myself-I ordered ny third super firm( but a split mattress with a medium firm for my wife's side-Michael does customize).I also added a removable pillow top- don't know how I did without it all these years .

These are good mattresses but beware the delivery process. This guy has a history of screwing up deliveries. Including mine. If you decide to order, be vigilant about getting details on delivery and then still assume that it might get messed up. But when you eventually get your mattress, you'll probably like it. read more

We bought a latex foam mattress from them about 9 months ago and it gradually got saggier. We knew there was a problem when we found ourselves moving to the middle as soon as our partner got up. We spoke with Mark who agreed there was a problem and promised to have a replacement available the next weekend for no charge. I don't know much about foam and whether a defect should happen, but I do know customer service (I ran customer service for Fuji bicycles!), and both Mark's follow thru and response were good. The new mattress was great when new, my hips did't hurt in the morning and were happy for awhile. Update....BUt after a few more months the second mattress is sagging where we sleep. My wife barely weighs a hundred pounds...frustrating. read more

My new Dixie Foam Super-Firm Dream Bed was delivered!!! I've been sleeping on Dixie Foam's mattresses for decades. They are incredibly comfortable and wear extremely well. Mark is very pleasant and accommodating to work with. The prices are very reasonable. Delivery is incredibly reasonable and the driver (who was also a pleasure to work with) was right on time. Yes, Dixie Foam Beds is now in Brooklyn, a short comfortable trip, I thought. Anyway, if you need a new mattress, Go to Dixie Foam Beds!!! read more

Mark sold us a solid boxspring at a reasonable price. He delivered it the same day that we ordered it. We also hired him to assemble a bed that we purchased from Amazon. He showed up on time and completed the job in about 90 minutes. He was professional and did a good job. The bed looks beautiful. I will definitely use them for future purchases and bed assembly. Mark is a good guy, ask for him! read more

Great selection for hypo-allergenic mattresses. Great products, great salespeople, great prices - what more can I say? An allergy to memory foam had us going to every hypo-allergenic mattress store in Manhattan. Either they were too firm, too expensive or they weren't really organic. Dixie Foam worked with us very patiently and we ended up buying a custom made mattress that was perfect - and less money than anything we saw at the other stores. Dixie Foam sells only what they make in the Brooklyn factory, so they know exactly what goes into their mattresses. Don't buy mystery foam that is made in China! read more

We got a latex trizone queen 11 years ago. At the time it was just perfect in every way. And now? It is just as perfect as when we bought it! No wear. No tear. Amazing. Thanks Mark, you are still the best! read more

I have been a fan of Dixie foam for a long time and enjoy sleeping on one of their very firm double size mattresses. They stand up to time. After researching available thick exercise mats online, I recently decided to purchase Dixie foam's exercise mat, even though it is very expensive with the shipping added. Before making my order, I spoke with Mark, the owner, over the phone asking about the difference between the folding one and the option of getting one that s one piece that does not fold. I wondered when exercising, whether there would be gaps and create potential accidents from space between pieces of foam. He assured me that this would not be a problem. Since the foldable is obviously so much more convenient for moving or storing, I ordered that. I would STRONGLY advice anyone thinking about this not to order the foldable. When I am on this mat, my foot, elbow, knee, you name it, falls right in the spaces between the rectangles of foam even thought there is stitching between them; and these spaces stretch apart as much as 3/4". And the fact that there is this movement between the pieces is an additional risk for hurting oneself if working out from a standing position. I have written to Mark about my disappointment, but he is not responding. I am trying to figure out a way to deal with this, as shipping cost to return, for which the customer is responsible, is very expensive; and I would again have to pay shipping to exchange for what I should have ordered. I really do love their foam and the fabric that covers these mats, so it is a shame. read more

Can't say enough good things about my incredible experience with Mark at Dixie Foam Beds- I was desperate for a new mattress and needed it quickly (cat situation) Mark delivered a mattress within hours and the quality and comfort are superb! Better than the previous mattress which cost three times as much! Support this incredible local business if you can- they are fantastic! read more

I bought a foam mattress last year from Dixie Foam and can report that after a year of use I'm very happy. No more waking up with stiff shoulders or low back pain. It's worth the shlep to Greenpoint to see the factory/showroom and meet Mark, the owner/manufacturer. You'll want to lie on the different models yourself in order to choose your favorite one. There was a slight snafu with the delivery of my mattress because of the time of day I needed it delivered, but after a couple of delays it was delivered and I couldn't be happier. If you're on the fence, go to Greenpoint and check them out in person. Whatever time you spend getting there will be saved in future good nights' sleep and general happiness. read more

After almost 30 years I decided it was time to order a new mattress. I laughed when I bought my original one Because it had a 20 year guarantee and you could return it in 10 years if it wasn't good. I couldn't get a discount from MARK but I managed to get a laugh from him. So I just ordered my new mattress and I'm looking forward to sleeping on it for another 30 years. Thanks for a good product made in the USA PS. I did get a discount from Mark PPS. My mattress was delivered today and I couldn't wait to put my body on it. It was better than the original one, nice and firm I can't wait to go to sleep tonight. Thank you Mark read more

Great place, really nice folks, have bought their super firm mattresses for about 20 years, the best. Recently got a new one with their topper and it's the best sleep I've had in years! Love it! read more

It had been a year since we had purchased our Dixie Foam Queen size mattress and we are very happy with our purchase. Mark was very helpful in assisting us in the selecting of our queen size mattress and it was the BEST investment we had ever made! Many great night rest and made in the USA! Well worth a trip in trying what will fit you best! Mark even deliver our mattress to us in Queens, New York. read more

The best!! I recommend Dixie Foam to all of my friends and family. I've never slept on a more comfortable bed. I've had back problems for years, and they've finally subsided and I can sleep soundly. Not only is their mattress quality amazing, but Mark was so helpful and accommodating and he delivered the mattress personally. Overall very pleasant experience. I got the dream bed deluxe... highly recommended read more

Purchased a king size latex mattress from Dixie Foam recently. I decided to go with them after doing an extensive amount of online research on buying a comfortable, long lasting bed that would suit both my wife and me. Latex beds tend to be more expensive, but are better than memory foam in some ways. For me in particular, I prefer beds not to run hot (memory foam are usually hotter than latex) and I don't like that stiff "memory" feel after it molds to your body. I also wanted the bed to last a long time without developing sunken spots (a frequent problem with coil based beds). For me Dixie Foam was by far the best choice. They offer high quality latex beds at very very competitive prices (same as online) plus you get to test out the bed before you buy. I had searched online and at other local retailers. Brooklyn bedding (not actually in Brooklyn -- online only) in addition to Amazon and Costco offerings (Costco only sells latex beds online) were considerations, but it's hard to stomach a $1000+ purchase when you can't test it out, even with their return policies -- who wants to rewrap a king size mattress and ship it back via UPS? I checked out quite a few other retail places in the NY area such as Essentia (waaay too expensive) and mainstream brands' latex lines. Nothing was meeting my requirements for a decent price point, test-it-out-ability and high quality latex (talalay in particular). That is, until Dixie Foam. The showroom is modest, but I believe that's part of how they keep their prices so low. They have many models on display and we tried all of them. I had an incredible customer service experience working with Mark. He was not only knowledgeable and very friendly, but he was nice and extremely accommodating after we realized the mattress we'd ordered was a bit too firm. After he ordered and received the new, plusher mattress, he drove to our home and exchanged the mattresses himself! We would definitely purchase from them again. They offer a high quality product at a rock bottom price. Plus you can feel nice that you supported a local, long standing NY business. read more

Starting with my parents in the 70s, my family has always used Dixie Foam mattresses. They last forever, are very comfortable, and are reasonably priced. They are also easy to transport since they're all foam: I have traveled across the Northeast with a King sized mattress in the backseat of my Camry by just rolling it up and tying it up with some ropes. It is a shame that Dixie Foam is still relatively unknown, even among locals, when new companies on the market like Casper are getting popular due to savvy marketing. Dixie Foam should do some marketing in the area as well - they have been around long enough to have all the hip/local credibility if they choose. read more

This place came highly recommended by a co-worker and she was absolutely right! We were shopping for a mattress and were considering a range of mattresses when my co-worker suggested we look into DixieFoam Beds. We purchased the DreamBed deluxe mattress. The price for a queen mattress came to about $600. It does not have the heavy/bulky feel and that works for us! We cannot decide between the medium firm and super firm, but bought the super firm. The owner was kind enough to offer to let us exchange it for the medium firm if it does not work out. We had to switch to the medium firm because it worked better for my husband. I can't complain because service was great! Definitely, the right type of mattress for us. read more

Thank You Mark and Dixie Foam. I have severe back issues and needed the right mattress. I was referred by a friend to go to Dixie Foam. She has 2 mattress from there. One is 25 years old and one is 17 years old. Both are still firm and comfortable. I bought the Dream Bed Deluxe. One was too hard, one was too soft. After trying different mattresses, I finally got the right one. The showroom has the mattresses so you can try them all and choose the best one for you. Mark is the epitome of customer service. He was not happy until I was happy. And Joe who delivers is a great employee as well. Beatrice read more

I have been a Dixie Foam customer since the 1970's. This time around I desperately needed a new mattress for a temporary apartment that I am living in. I had been out of the USA for quite a while and I was so elated to learn that Dixie Foam is still in business! I rushed down and purchased a mattress without needing to compare prices, quality, etc. with other foam mattress stores. I knew that I was getting exceptional quality at a price that I could afford. My experience was made even better by the excellent in-store sales personnel, and the ability to reach the owner himself with a few questions. Advice for all you newbies to NYC, this is the place to shop when you want a good night's sleep! read more

Every mattress I've owned since I was a kid is from Dixie Foam. Great business with a great product. I convinced my best friend to buy from them too and she said she's never slept so well. Super durable and worth it! read more

After 15 years of sleeping comfortably and soundly on a Dixie Foam mattress I was ready for a new one, but instead of going back to Dixie I succumbed to the lure of two successive innerspring mattresses on which a friend got me significant discounts. BIG MISTAKE, and when the second one tanked prematurely I went back to my roots and bought a Dreambed Deluxe that served me exceptionally well for three years until I had a problem with it last August. I called Mark, and he immediately recognized what had gone wrong with my mattress and not only replaced it expeditiously, but stuck by me...saw me through a host of subsequent, self-induced problems and got me back to sleeping comfortably and soundly again. I was totally pleased by Marks' world-class customer service! I suspect that I'm married to Mark and his mattresses, which are, incidentally, extremely competitively priced, for life. :) read more

Mix bad service with an intolerable mattress and there's your recipe for nightmares. I ordered a mattress and they made it wrong, so they had to do it again and then Hurricane Sandy so there was a LOT of waiting. But that part was understandable. Then they finally made an appointment to deliver it... and never showed up ("Was that delivery for today? Really?"). But, sadly, It finally came. Horrible; saggy and hot. I put a piece of 3/4" plywood underneath it; a little better. But the sucker sleeps HOT and cooks my spine... and this is after I spent 25 years on a foam bed by a competitor, so I liked foam... or I thought. Meanwhile I'm calling and calling them... they're going to get back to me, etc. They never get back to you. Not once. So now I have to sleep (poorly) on my side... with the help of lots of melatonin. I you're ever in their neighborhood Run (do not walk) past their store with eyes averted, lest you too get sucked in and have your nights forever destroyed. I'd put no stars, just a picture of a melted spine, but I didn't know how. AVOID. read more

I like my mattress except for the fact that it is smaller than the dimensions they advertise. I ordered a Queen size and it is definitely smaller than that. I called multiple times and they finally sent out someone to look at it. He measured the mattress, agreed it was smaller, made a joke about how size matters and then I never heard from them. Needless to say, I won't buy anything from them again. read more

We ordered a soft latex mattress from Amazon that was not soft enough IRL. I started shopping for a topper and found Dixie. We were able to swing by and see, feel, and smell the 3" latex topper. It is very soft, and wonderful. Great guys, great product, great service. read more

Most comfortable mattress that I've ever had, and it was the least expensive of all the ones we looked at in major chains. This mom-and-pop place is worth the trek. Friends of mine have had their high density foam mattress for 20 years and it's still as comfortable as it was when they got it (and they're heavy set people). I feel lucky to have found this place every night when I so happily tuck in. read more

Great store. Incredible customer service. Great pricing. Mark, the owner, is pleasant to deal with and was very helpful with my questions and concerns. We've bought a number of mattresses from them in the past decade and really like the experience. Besides having much more quality mattresses than say a Sleepy's (for basically the same price, they sell good, handmade mattresses compared to Sleepy's kind of junky ones), they offer much more help and attention than big box stores. I had to exchange one mattress for a different level mattress at one point and they were very easygoing and informative. -Miriam read more

I wanted a custom cushion made. I went to this place after getting an estimate for $600. Dixie Foam gave me an estimate for less than half and it came out perfect. My only problem was that I went to the store a couple of time to pick it up at the agreed upon time and the manager had forgotten to call me to tell me he hadn't had a chance to pick up the cushion from his factory. But he felt so bad about it, he delivered it free of charge to my apartment the next day, so I can't really complain. For anyone looking for custom work, this was a great place to get it done. They followed what were rather complicated directions perfectly and used a fabric that was difficult to work with very well. read more

5 stars for the mattress, including various customizations I requested. Latex foam mattresses are great. I've had my current one from DF for 15+ years. Only now is it starting to show signs of wear. Mark is very pleasant to deal with and is very accommodating. However, it sometimes feels like he's in over his head running this business. He could use a sales person and an office manager. He's always juggling too many things. And the showroom is a bit dreary. He needs a Mark Lemonis type to come in to revamp the operational and marketing aspects of the business. The business has much more potential. The revamped website is a start, but 3 stars for all the fits and starts. 5 stars for the mattress. read more
