i seen loads of these liquidator crowds around selling beds and mattresses very cheap like 120 - 200 euro for sprung with memory foam.

are they actually any good?

just find it hard to believe theres so many of those crowds around and where are they all getting stock from

Maybe its the same company advertising under different names??

I'd say junk, could be fake name brands too, this was going on in UK..

I imagine they degrade pretty quickly. If it's too good to be true....

Remember with a mattress you spend every night on it so no point skimping.

You never hear of that many bedding companies going broke, so where are they sourcing their stock? I'd say they are like TK Maxx and make their own "liquadation" stock.

Really bad idea - if they are using cheap /dodgy chemicals for the fireproofing, you may suffer health effects

( in it for ~ 8 hours a day, breathing in all that banned chemical goodness)

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers can affect birth weight, neurological development

I thought water beds went out with the indians.

There was a show on bbc a few weeks ago about cheap mattresses with fake labeling been sold on grey market.
Total fire hazard and some of them are actually old mattresses that have been re-holstered. Imagine buying a second hand mattress thinking it was new.
When it comes to my bed I would not be going cheap or cutting corners!

I think a lot of these places just call themselves "Liquidation Stores" they'll even have a big blow out "Closing Down" sale every second weekend, but never seem to close or go low on stock.

They're just cheap furniture disguised as 'good' furniture at a massive discount.

If ya get me.

I'm sure the stuff is grand, but probably not worth the "original sale price" on the sale ticket. More like "Just about worth what we're asking for".

To liquidate some of the stock doesn't mean you are going to close down. You're conflating this with something entirely different. Again, another reason why people shouldn't be dependent on Google. This is worse than all the people who think they are solicitors because they can Google.

That's what I'm thinking just cheap muc

I've worked for furniture retailers for 10+ years. As everyone has said these mattresses won't last the light of day.
I've seen furniture for sale in Debenhams, M&S, Laura Ashley (don't start me on LA) for extortionate prices. For instance a bedside locker in M&S was selling for say €439. I know this locker is worth €169 - €189. Are people really that gullible that they buy from these shops. Do they think that because its coming from M&S its worth that price? Although its been made in Vietnam like most furniture, because its been sold by M&S compared to some independent furniture shop that its worthy of this silly price. Really grates me!!

They're mostly all junk but the best of them is Murphy's opposite Burger King on the Airton Rd. They have all the top names still sealed at around half the price they are elsewhere. Unlike all the other "liquidators" they will usually only have one or two of each mattress in stock.

As opposed to the other places which tend to have hundreds of the same junk. They usually have an ad for "Hotel" Beds also and use the same address. Pure crap and the stink of chemicals off them would kill a horse.

Probably best off avoiding that memory foam crap also.

Memory foam is rubbish. Pocket springs is where it's at.
