Quick Answer: Casper and Endy are both owned by Sleep Country Canada, making this a comparison between corporate siblings, not competitors. The Casper Original costs roughly $400 more than the Endy at the queen size. According to the Canadian Sleep Society, consistent sleep quality depends more on proper firmness matching than brand prestige, and both mattresses target the same medium-firm range.
- Choose Endy if you want to save $400, get a longer trial (365 vs 100 nights), and prioritize motion isolation
- Choose Casper if you prefer a slightly firmer feel and want the Casper brand experience
- Consider neither if $1,295 is your budget, because independent brands offer more at that price

Same Company, Different Price Tags
Here is the fact most comparison sites either bury or ignore entirely: Casper Canada and Endy are both owned by Sleep Country Canada. Sleep Country acquired Endy in 20181 and later brought Casper's Canadian operations under the same corporate umbrella.
This matters because when you compare Casper and Endy, you are not comparing two companies competing to win your business. You are comparing two products from the same parent company that have been positioned at different price tiers deliberately. Sleep Country wants Endy to capture the budget-conscious online shopper and Casper to capture the buyer willing to pay more for a recognized brand name.
The question you should be asking is not "which brand is better?" It is "does the Casper Original deliver $400 more value than the Endy, given they come from the same company?"
We have an opinion on that. But first, the specs.
The $400 Question: What Are You Actually Paying For?
The Casper Original queen retails at approximately $1,295 CAD. The Endy queen costs $895. Both are all-foam mattresses targeting a medium-firm feel. Both are sold online with free shipping across Canada. Both are CertiPUR-US certified and made in Canada.
Casper Original Construction (10 inches)
- 1 inch of AirScape polyfoam with perforated design for cooling
- 1.5 inches of memory foam for pressure relief
- 6.5 inches of ProSupport polyfoam base (note: some testers measured the mattress closer to 9 inches total)
Endy Construction (10 inches)
- 2 inches of gel-infused open-cell polyfoam comfort layer (~3.0 lb/ft³)
- 3 inches of transition foam for motion isolation
- 5 inches of dense support base
The Endy actually has more foam in its comfort and transition layers (5 inches combined) than the Casper does (2.5 inches combined). The Casper compensates with a thicker support base at 6.5 inches. Neither brand publishes foam density specifications, so a direct quality comparison based on materials is impossible.
The Casper includes a proprietary perforated comfort layer (AirScape) designed for airflow. The Endy uses an open-cell, gel-infused foam for cooling. In practice, independent reviewers rate both mattresses similarly for temperature regulation, with neither standing out as particularly cool or particularly hot.
What You Get vs What You Lose
Rather than walking through each brand in isolation, here is what changes depending on which direction you go.
If You Choose the Casper ($1,295 queen)
You get:
- A slightly firmer feel (roughly 7/10 versus the Endy's 6.4/10)
- A globally recognized brand name
- Access to Sleep Country retail locations for in-store testing
- The Casper product ecosystem (pillows, sheets, bed frames)
You lose:
- $400 compared to the Endy
- 265 nights of trial (Casper offers 100, Endy offers 365)
- 5 years of warranty (Casper offers 10, Endy offers 15 with registration)
- Motion isolation quality (Endy rates higher in independent tests)
If You Choose the Endy ($895 queen)
You get:
- $400 savings at the queen size
- A 365-night trial, one of the longest in Canada
- 15-year warranty with registration (10 without)
- Superior motion isolation (5/5 in independent testing)
- Four retail locations for in-store testing
You lose:
- The Casper brand recognition (if that matters to you)
- A slightly firmer option (though the difference is modest)
The Canadian Sleep Society emphasizes that sleep surface selection should be guided by individual comfort needs and body type, not brand reputation or marketing claims. Their guidance notes that medium-firm mattresses suit the majority of adult sleepers, and that the most reliable way to select the right mattress is to test it in person for at least 10 to 15 minutes in your primary sleep position.
Both the Casper Original and the Endy fall within the medium-firm range. Given that both come from the same parent company and target similar firmness profiles, the meaningful differences between them are in pricing, trial length, and warranty terms rather than sleep quality.

Who Should Choose Which
Choose Endy if: You are a couple (better motion isolation), you want maximum time to decide (365-night trial), you want a longer warranty (15 years), or you simply prefer not to pay $400 more for a mattress from the same parent company with undisclosed foam specs.
Choose Casper if: You specifically want a firmer feel in the 7/10 range and want to try it at a Sleep Country store first. Some people also simply prefer the Casper brand and are willing to pay for it. That is a valid reason, just know that you are paying for the name, not a measurably better product.
Choose neither if: You are spending $1,295 and want the best possible mattress for that money. At that price point, you can buy a high-quality hybrid mattress with pocket coils, published foam densities, and construction that will outlast either all-foam option. Independent brands like Novosbed offer three firmness options and premium 5 lb/ft³ foam for less than the Casper costs.
At $1,295, You Have Better Options
At Mattress Miracle, we carry mattresses across every price point from $400 to $3,000. When a customer tells us their budget is $1,295, the Casper Original is not what we would recommend. Not because it is a bad mattress, but because the Canadian market offers stronger options at that price.
For $1,295, you could get a pocket coil hybrid with published foam specifications, zoned support, better airflow than any all-foam bed, and a reasonable expectation of 8 to 10 years of use. You could also look at the Restonic lineup, which starts in a similar range with significantly denser materials and Canadian manufacturing.
If your budget is genuinely $895, the Endy is a solid choice for an all-foam bed. But if you have $1,295 to spend, walk into a mattress store and feel what that money buys in person before defaulting to a brand name you recognize from a podcast advertisement.
The podcast ad test: If the main reason you are considering Casper is because you heard about it on a podcast or saw it in an ad, pause and ask what you actually know about the product. Brand familiarity is not the same as product quality. In our experience, many customers who come in asking about Casper leave with a different mattress once they compare it side by side with other options at the same price.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Casper and Endy owned by the same company?
Yes. Both are owned by Sleep Country Canada. Sleep Country acquired Endy in 2018 and later added Casper Canada to its portfolio. The two brands are positioned at different price tiers within the same corporate structure, with Endy targeting the value segment and Casper targeting the premium segment.
Why is the Casper Original so much more expensive than Endy?
The $400 price difference at the queen size is largely a function of brand positioning and marketing costs rather than materials. Both mattresses are all-foam, both are 10 inches tall, and neither publishes foam density specifications. The Casper has a slightly different foam configuration and a firmer feel, but the construction does not justify a 45% price premium based on publicly available specifications.
Does the Casper sleep cooler than the Endy?
Not significantly. The Casper uses a perforated AirScape foam in its comfort layer, while the Endy uses gel-infused open-cell foam. Both approaches are designed to manage heat, and independent reviewers rate them similarly for temperature neutrality. Neither mattress is a strong choice for hot sleepers. A hybrid mattress with a coil core will sleep cooler than either option.
Can I try both Casper and Endy in a store?
Yes. Casper mattresses are available at Sleep Country retail locations, and Endy has four dedicated retail locations across Canada. Trying both in person is the best way to compare firmness since the Casper (7/10) is noticeably firmer than the Endy (6.4/10). If neither is near you, visit a local mattress store to test medium-firm options as a reference point.
Is the Casper Original worth it in Canada in 2026?
In our assessment, the Casper Original is overpriced relative to what you get. At $1,295 for a queen, you are paying more than the Endy for a shorter trial (100 vs 365 nights), shorter warranty (10 vs 15 years), and comparable foam construction from the same parent company. If you have $1,295 to spend, better options exist from independent brands and in-store retailers.
