4 Differences Worth Knowing
When you’re committing to the bed for the next decade, these things matter.
Specialist vs generalist.
The Brick sells mattresses, sofas, dining sets, fridges, washers, and TVs. Their staff rotate across categories. Modern Mattress sells one thing — mattresses and the systems that support them — so every staff member fits beds for a living. That depth shows up in 30 minutes on the showroom floor.
Saskatchewan is our whole business.
The Brick is a national chain with stores across Canada. Modern Mattress operates 6 stores, all in Saskatchewan. Every buying decision, every warranty call, and every delivery is handled by people who live here. When something goes wrong, you talk to the store you bought from. Not a head-office queue.
A mattress alone rarely solves sleep.
We match you to a complete Sleep System: the right mattress, the right adjustable base for your sleep position, pillows matched to your shoulder width, and a protector that keeps the system performing. That’s harder to do at a store where mattresses share floor space with refrigerators.
Designed in Saskatchewan. Made in Canada.
We design our own mattress collections here in Saskatchewan and manufacture every bed in Canada. The Brick carries third-party mattress brands — some Canadian-made, some imported — alongside their other product lines. With us, the bed you lie on was built by a team you can actually meet.

Common Questions
For a Saskatchewan shopper buying primarily a mattress, Modern Mattress offers a more specialized experience. We sell mattresses and sleep systems — that’s our entire business. The Brick is a multi-category retailer (furniture, appliances, electronics, mattresses), so floor staff handle many product categories. Modern Mattress also designs its own collections in Saskatchewan, manufactures every mattress in Canada, and runs a 30-minute Discovery Experience to body-map and recommend a complete sleep system. The Brick has Saskatchewan locations and convenience if you’re also shopping for furniture or appliances.
Yes. The Brick operates stores in Saskatchewan, including in Saskatoon and Regina, alongside other Western Canadian markets. Modern Mattress has 6 Saskatchewan locations: two in Saskatoon (North and Rosewood), two in Regina (Prince of Wales and Modern Mattress Regina Outlet), one in Moose Jaw, and one in Yorkton.
Trial terms at The Brick vary by mattress brand and current promotion — some brands they carry include a comfort trial, others do not. Modern Mattress offers a 100 Night Sleep Guarantee across every collection. If your bed isn’t right, you walk into the store you bought from and we re-fit you. No shipping, no third-party brand return process.
Both retailers carry mattresses across a wide price range. The Brick’s lineup includes lower entry-tier prices on imported brands and runs frequent promotional sales. Modern Mattress collections start under $1,000 and reach into premium tiers, with Flexiti 0% APR financing for 12 months. The bigger question is fit: a $799 mattress that’s wrong for your body is more expensive than the right $1,400 mattress over 10 years of sleep. The Discovery Experience is free — visit a store and we’ll show you what fits.
The Discovery Experience is Modern Mattress’s in-store matching process. A trained sleep consultant asks about your sleep issues (back pain, overheating, pressure points, partner movement), uses body-mapping to read your pressure points and spinal alignment, then narrows the lineup to 2–3 complete sleep systems that address your specific problems. The process takes about 30 minutes and requires no appointment. It’s not available at The Brick.
