Best Mattress to Try in Person in Gauteng (2026)
Quick answer: Mr Mattress has 1 walk-in store in Gauteng, in Kempton Park on the East Rand. We have 9 stores nationwide (see our full store list). The mattress to ask for first is the Revive Memory Foam, built on a SABS-approved 65 kg/m³ core, from R4,899. If you're in Johannesburg or Pretoria and Kempton Park isn't convenient, The Mattress Company, The Bed Centre, The Mattress Warehouse and The Bed Guy are genuine Gauteng retailers with in-store testing worth visiting.
If you're open to a better test than a 10-minute showroom visit, order a Mr Mattress online and use the 365-night home trial - you sleep on it in your own bed, in your own home, for up to a year. We manufacture through our own Gauteng facility, so delivery is fast, and the price is identical to what you'd pay in our Kempton Park store, whether you shop online or in person.
| Range | Feel | Warranty | From |

Frequently asked questions
Does Mr Mattress have a showroom in Gauteng?
Yes - our Kempton Park store on West Street serves Gauteng's East Rand. See our full list of stores nationwide for opening hours and directions. We also manufacture through our own Gauteng facility, so delivery here is fast.
Where can I test a mattress in person in Johannesburg or Pretoria?
The Mattress Company, The Bed Centre, The Mattress Warehouse and The Bed Guy are established Johannesburg and Pretoria retailers with in-store testing, if Kempton Park is a longer drive than you'd like.
Is a home trial actually a good substitute for testing in-store?
Yes - it's a longer, more honest test. A 365-night trial in your own bed reveals far more than a 10-minute lie-down on a showroom floor.
What is your trial and return policy?
365 nights at home, no minimum hold period, on every mattress.
