Quick Answer
Costco Canada's mattress lineup typically includes Novaform (memory foam, $400-$700 queen), Kirkland Signature (budget hybrid, $400-$600), Casper ($800-$1,200), Sealy ($600-$900), and occasional Beautyrest models ($700-$1,100).

Novaform at Costco: Detailed Breakdown
Novaform is Costco's house brand for mattresses, offering all-foam construction at budget-friendly prices. These mattresses ship compressed in a box and are exclusively available through Costco.
Novaform Strengths & Weaknesses
- Strengths: Affordable ($400-$700 queen), CertiPUR-US foam, easy returns through Costco membership
- Weaknesses: Zero coils (no airflow), no edge support, heat retention common, foam density not disclosed, shorter lifespan (5-7 years typical), no flippable option
- Coil comparison: 0 coils vs Restonic ComfortCare's 1,222, that's 1,222 points of individually wrapped support you're missing
Kirkland Signature: Costco's Own Brand
Kirkland Signature occasionally offers hybrid mattresses at Costco, though availability varies significantly by location and season.
Kirkland Signature Assessment
- Strengths: Competitive pricing ($500-$600 queen), basic hybrid construction with coils, Costco's return policy
- Weaknesses: Approximately 800 coils (53% fewer than Restonic ComfortCare), inconsistent availability, limited firmness options, generic construction with minimal comfort layers
- Our take: A reasonable entry-level hybrid, but the coil count gap means significantly less support and durability compared to purpose-built mattresses
Sealy at Costco Canada
Sealy offers select Posturepedic models through Costco at reduced prices, but these are typically lower-tier models within Sealy's lineup, not the same Posturepedic Plus or Posturepedic+ models available at specialty retailers.
Important Note About Costco Sealy Models
The Sealy mattresses at Costco are often exclusive SKUs made specifically for warehouse distribution. This means you can't directly compare them to Sealy models at other retailers, the internal construction, foam densities, and coil specifications may differ despite similar naming. Always ask for the specific model number if comparing across stores.Casper at Costco
Casper has an on-again, off-again presence at Costco Canada. When available, you'll typically find the Original or Element models, not the premium Nova or Wave.
Casper at Costco Assessment
- Strengths: Recognizable brand, decent foam quality, sometimes discounted below retail
- Weaknesses: Lower-tier models only, 700-900 coils in hybrid versions, 11" height limits comfort layers, premium models not available at Costco, higher price than other Costco options without proportionally better specs
How Restonic Stacks Up: The Specialist Advantage
When you compare the numbers side by side, the value proposition becomes clear. Here's how Restonic's entry-level ComfortCare compares to the best options at Costco:
| Specification | Best Costco Hybrid | Restonic ComfortCare | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Queen Price | $600-$1,100 | $1,619 | Costco (by $25-$525) |
| Coil Count (Queen) | 800-1,000 | 1,222 | Restonic (+22-53%) |
| Expert Fitting | None | Included | Restonic |
| In-Store Testing | Limited/none | Full showroom | Restonic |
| Delivery | Self-serve/basic | White glove | Restonic |
| Expected Lifespan | 5-8 years | 10+ years | Restonic |
| Cost Per Year* | $90-$183/year | $112/year | Comparable/Restonic |
↔ Scroll to see full table
*Cost per year = queen price ÷ expected lifespan years
Value Per Dollar: What You Actually Get
The Real Cost Calculation
A $600 Costco mattress that lasts 6 years costs $100/year. A $1,619 Restonic ComfortCare that lasts 10+ years costs $112/year or less. Factor in the white glove delivery, expert fitting, and 1,222-coil support system, and the specialist option delivers significantly more value per dollar spent.
As our sleep specialist Talia puts it: "Costco is great for bulk paper towels. For something you spend 8 hours on every night for a decade, you deserve a specialist fitting."

Call 519-770-0001Which Costco mattress has the highest coil count?
Among Costco's current Canadian lineup, Sealy Posturepedic models and Beautyrest hybrids occasionally reach approximately 1,000 individually wrapped coils in a queen size. However, this still falls short of the 1,222 coils in a Restonic ComfortCare queen at Mattress Miracle. Higher coil counts generally mean better pressure distribution, more targeted support, and improved motion isolation for couples.
Are Costco mattress brands the same quality as retail versions?
Not always. Major brands like Sealy and Beautyrest often create Costco-exclusive SKUs with different internal specifications than their retail counterparts. While the brand name is familiar, the foam densities, coil gauges, and comfort layers may differ. This makes direct comparison difficult. At specialist stores, you get the brand's standard retail lineup with full specification transparency.
What's the best value mattress at Costco Canada?
For pure value at Costco, the Kirkland Signature hybrid (when available) offers the best price-to-quality ratio at approximately $500-$600 for a queen with basic coil support. However, if you're comparing long-term value (cost per year of use), the Restonic ComfortCare at $1,619 often wins because its 1,222-coil construction is built to last 10+ years versus 5-7 years for most Costco options.
Should I buy a Costco mattress online or in-warehouse?
If buying from Costco, in-warehouse is generally better because you can at least see the packaging and sometimes feel a display model. Online purchases through Costco.ca offer the same return policy but remove even the minimal in-person assessment. For the best buying experience, a specialist showroom like Mattress Miracle lets you test every model extensively with expert guidance from Brad, Dorothy, or Talia before committing.
How often does Costco rotate their mattress inventory?
Costco Canada typically rotates mattress models every 3-6 months, with some popular models like Novaform remaining more consistently available. Seasonal promotions and warehouse clearance events also affect availability. This means the specific model you researched may not be in stock when you visit. Specialist stores maintain consistent lineups, so the mattress you test will always be available for purchase.
Can I negotiate mattress prices at Costco?
No, Costco's pricing is fixed, there's no negotiation on mattresses or any other products. What you see is what you pay. At specialist mattress stores like Mattress Miracle, you may find package deals, promotional pricing, or bundle options (mattress + frame, mattress + protector) that provide additional value. Our team can work with your budget to find the best Restonic model for your needs.

Charts are helpful, but nothing replaces testing mattresses yourself. Visit Mattress Miracle's showroom to lie on every Restonic model and experience the difference that 1,222 coils, Talalay copper latex, and expert fitting make compared to warehouse options.
