Our Spring Mattress // WOOL // COTTON // POCKET COIL SPRINGS //
A classic, century-old design, the Suffolk combines a durable, high quality spring with thick layers of cotton and wool in an organic cotton case. This mattress is flippable and rotatable, which allows the natural fibres to rest and bounce back after being compressed. Easily our most popular option for children and teens, but a favourite for all ages.

Following a little research, I soon found Black Sheep Mattress Company to be top of the line as far as the ethics of the product they manufacture as well as their unrivalled service. Every step of the process was flawless from the lovely and accommodating sales person in their Toronto shop to the delivery person that brought my Suffolk mattress to my home. Though I would probably order one up on the softness scale next time, I love my mid range firmness mattress. (I took the chance without making the trip to testing showroom model against their suggestion ;) It is obviously extremely well made with sustainable materials by an impressive company! I hope Black Sheep considers making daybeds and other furniture in the future as there are many of us whom I’m certain would support this impressive company in their goal to provide a high quality product in an eco friendly manner out of natural materials. Very happy to own a Canadian made mattress, thank you for contributing to a good conscience for all!

We do make handcrafted bedroom furniture and carry a curated selection of bedding accessories, if you’d like to embellish your sleep experience we’d be happy to help you choose the perfect additions or we can discuss customization options. Thank you for taking the time to share your kind review, we look forward to meeting you next time you’re in town and wish you many more nights of restful sleep.
Gave it about a month - the sleeps are in and they're all pretty good (any bad ones from late day caffeine is not the fault of the mattress). Thanks for crafting a great place to rest!
Hi Nancy, that's wonderful! Wishing you plenty of great sleeps. Even with late days from caffeine, we hope you get a comfy experience too!
Everything about our experience from first entering the store just to "try things out" to selection, delivery and then of course the mattress and sleeping value has been top notch. Materials are excellent, quality superb and all the customer service we interacted with were efficient, engaged (not pushy) and very thoughtful and pleasant -- Highly recommend.
Hi Abe, thank you for your kind words about Black Sheep and our service. It's a pleasure to be a part of changing your sleeping experience for the better!
My son and I love our new mattresses. I find it hard to get out of bed in the morning because it’s so cozy. They are beautifully made, almost sad to cover them up.
Hi Justine, thank you for choosing Black Sheep for your family! It’s so nice to hear that you’re liking your mattresses so much that it’s hard to get out of bed. We hope it doesn’t make for late mornings, but otherwise we are happy to know they’re so cozy for you.
Our queen suffolk mattress is super comfortable, you can feel the superb quality! And we love that there was no off gassing with our new mattress due to the fabulous healthy materials it is made from. The company has really great customer service as well. Highly recommend!
