Mattresses & Sleep Guarantee
What is the 80-Night Sleep Guarantee?
With a qualifying mattress protector purchase, the 80-Night Sleep Guarantee lets you sleep on your new mattress for 80 nights. If it's too firm or too soft, we'll exchange it one time at the original purchase price. No restocking, pickup, reselection, or redelivery fees.
Why is a mattress protector required?
Mattress protectors keep the mattress sanitary and protect the manufacturer's warranty. They're also required for the 80-Night Sleep Guarantee. We'll help you choose one that fits your mattress when you order.
How many times can I exchange under the guarantee?
The 80-Night Sleep Guarantee allows one exchange per qualifying purchase. We take the time during your in-store visit to make sure you choose the right comfort level, so most customers don't need a second.
Returns & Cancellations
Can I return furniture to Courtside Furniture?
Furniture exchanges are handled case-by-case with store approval. Restocking and delivery fees apply when an exchange is approved. Special orders and custom items are generally non-cancellable once placed with the manufacturer. Visit our Return Policy page for details.
What about mattress returns?
Mattresses are covered by our 80-Night Sleep Guarantee with a qualifying mattress protector purchase. This allows for one comfort exchange at the original purchase price with no fees. Outside of the Sleep Guarantee, mattresses are not returnable.
Can I cancel a special order?
Special orders can be cancelled before they're placed with the manufacturer. Once submitted to the factory, special orders are generally non-cancellable. Contact us as soon as possible if you need to make a change.
Warranties & Service
What kind of warranty comes with my furniture?
Every regular-priced piece is backed by the manufacturer's warranty. Coverage varies by brand and product. Some brands stand out: Smith Brothers offers a 'YOUR' lifetime warranty on the frame, springs, and cushion cores to the original owner.
Who do I call if I have a warranty issue?
Call Courtside Furniture first at (715) 536-8954. We service the products we sell ourselves, and we coordinate with manufacturers on your behalf. You won't have to chase down a faraway service number on your own.
Do you offer a protection plan?
Yes. Protection plans are available on most furniture purchases and cover accidental damage like stains, rips, tears, and burns. Visit our Protection Plan page for full details.
