No words can express how grateful we are for all their help.

My parents went to John's Barn & Bedroom in Nanaimo because they were told by the owner that he…read morecould help them find a firm, supportive mattress that would relieve their chronic back pain. They trusted his advice and purchased a mattress for over $6,000, believing his assurances that he would make sure they were "100% satisfied" and that if there were any issues, he would make it right. Within just a couple of weeks, they realized the mattress was far too soft and uncomfortable. They went back to speak with John multiple times, but instead of offering any meaningful solution, he told them to "keep sleeping on it" and that their bodies would adjust. Months later, their back pain has only gotten worse. Now, he is refusing to stand by his word and has told them it's a "final sale." This entire experience has left my parents feeling misled, disappointed, and taken advantage of, especially after choosing to support a small local business instead of purchasing from a reputable Canadian company that offers a 365-night trial and full money-back guarantee. As someone who has personally tried the mattress during a weekend stay, I can confirm that it is extremely uncomfortable and causes back pain almost immediately. It's unacceptable for a business owner to promise satisfaction, take thousands of dollars from seniors on a fixed income, and then walk away from his word when the product clearly fails to deliver. We hoped John would make this right, but since he has not, I feel it's important to warn others: think twice before purchasing from this store. If you want honesty, comfort, and accountability, look elsewhere.

My washer has been down for about a year now, but honestly, being able to wash what would be 4 loads at home in 25 minutes, means that I don't have to spend the day hanging out at home. It's more cost efficient to do it there, putting 2 loads in 2 double machines then bringing it home to dry. And with a grocery store and coffee shop next door (and a pub) I can get the wash in, run to the grocery store to pick up a few items, back to the wash, load it into my car and home in under 45 minutes. They also offer laundry service if you are in a hurry or just hate doing laundry.
