What are the Best Luxury Mattress Stores in Austin for Handcrafted Mattresses?

If you’re looking for a luxury mattress in Austin, you’re in luck. This is a town that appreciates good craftsmanship, good design, and a really good night’s sleep.  Or even a fantastic day time nap!

And when it comes to mattresses, “luxury” can mean a lot of things. Maybe it’s a mattress built by hand. Maybe it’s layers of natural wool, cotton, cashmere, silk, or horsehair. Maybe it’s an incredible pocket spring system that quietly does its job while you sleep. Or maybe it’s simply finding a mattress that makes you look forward to bedtime.

For Austin shoppers, there are several excellent places to explore handcrafted and luxury mattresses. The fun part is figuring out what kind of luxury feels right for you.

What Makes a Mattress Handcrafted?

Many of the finest mattresses are made using traditional techniques that have been refined over generations. Layers of natural materials are carefully placed and stitched. Springs are individually encased or hand-nested. Edges are reinforced. Some mattresses are hand-tufted, which helps keep the internal materials where they belong and gives the mattress that distinctive, old-world look and feel.

It’s the mattress equivalent of buying a beautifully made pair of boots.  A mattress made with natural materials and old-school craftsmanship certainly has a story.

Austin Premier Mattress

At Austin Premier Mattress, we believe shopping for a mattress should be a little more enjoyable than it usually is.

We’re locally owned, we live here, and we treat our customers like neighbors.  Our showroom features a carefully selected collection of luxury and handcrafted mattresses, including some truly special beds made using traditional craftsmanship and natural materials.

One of the things we love most about handcrafted mattresses is that you can actually feel the difference. A beautifully made mattress that does sleep exceptionally well.

This means supporting you where you need support, cushioning you where you want cushioning, and creating that wonderful feeling of climbing into bed at the end of a long Austin day.

We also carry mattresses from some of the most respected names in the industry, giving Austin shoppers the opportunity to compare different construction styles, materials and feels in one place.

Take your shoes off. Get comfortable. Try your normal sleeping position. Roll around. Take a nap if you need to. Mattress shopping is one of the few retail experiences where taking a few minutes to do absolutely nothing is actually part of the process.

Why Natural Materials Matter

Luxury mattresses have a long history of using natural materials, and for good reason.

Wool is breathable and wonderfully resilient. Cotton creates a soft, comfortable surface. Cashmere and silk add a luxurious touch. Horsehair has been used in fine mattresses for generations because of its springy, resilient qualities.

A quality pocket spring system can provide an impressive combination of support and responsiveness. Because the springs work independently, the mattress can respond to your body rather than treating the entire surface like one big platform.

Put all those elements together and you get something that is a carefully engineered piece of furniture that will radically change your life through the quality of your sleep.

I am a poster child for this. Before I owned this business the last mattress I bought was like a drive by shooting.  I think I did the whole purchase in about 7 minutes and me and the name tagged sales dude chunked it in my truck.  I was pretty uncomfortable a year later but just blamed it on aging and being an athlete (and that last part is wishful thinking).

Fast forward to now and I am older and I sleep like a pet rock.  All because of super quality.  I am one of those people who travels to a really nice hotel and it is worse than home.

One of our favorite things about handcrafted mattresses is that luxury is more about superior quality than anything else.  The magic is in the build. It’s in the quality of the materials. The way the mattress is assembled. The attention paid to the spring system. The number of layers. The craftsmanship.  That is what we love.
