Craftsmanship has been the hallmark of Kingsdown mattresses for over a century, but what truly sets us apart is our devotion to decades of sleep research which has led us to a deeper understanding of the impact mattresses have on sleep quality. Our research informs our design and ensures that every exquisite Kingsdown mattress is meticulously crafted to deliver the life-changing benefits of healthy sleep so you get the kind of sleep that nourishes your body, renews your spirit and fills you with a newfound vitality when you awaken. Helping people sleep better is why we do what we do, and it's why we've consistently held ourselves to higher standards than other mattress manufacturers. Kingsdown was founded in 1904 as The Mebane Bedding Company in Mebane, N.C. by W.W. Corbett and A.N. Scott. More than a century later, we have expanded our manufacturing and distribution footprint in the U.S. and around the world but our commitment to handcrafted quality has never wavered.
