The Inside Scoop: Endy's Product Expert shares her top tips
By Jordyn Weinberg
Styling your home can be overwhelming, especially when trying to choose between so many options. Whether you're refreshing your space, upgrading to a new mattress, or creating a cozier bedroom, expert advice can make all the difference, giving you the confidence to bring your vision to life.Meet Van. She has been at Endy for just shy of three years and is our go-to for all things product. She keeps us industry experts with her training, owns our quality control process and keeps new and exciting launches coming with product development. In her spare time, she enjoys painting with her partner, chasing her three little ones around and lounging on her Endy Mattress at the end of the day with a good book. We interviewed Van to find out more about some of the processes behind our furniture and mattress collections, along with her helpful tips and tricks to creating the best bedroom space!
Let’s start with Endy’s new bedroom collection: What colours and materials were prioritized, and why are they a great choice for furniture?
In this collection, we prioritized warm neutrals, soft textures and natural materials, for pieces that can easily suit multiple different styles and spaces. And while there were plenty of furniture trends to take inspiration from, we never lost sight of our true priority: our customers. Our aim was to curate furniture pieces that married both style and comfort, allowing them to confidently mix and match pieces that speak to them. We kept our collection trend-proof, so that they fit seamlessly into your home, while also having longevity.
How do you ensure the furniture pieces are both stylish and durable for everyday use?
Furniture is an investment, and we want you to have our pieces in your space for a long time. In our product development, we strive to create pieces that not only look beautiful, but are also durable and functional. We choose high-quality fabrications, construction techniques that ensure structural integrity, and conduct rigorous product testing to make sure we exceed our customers’ expectations. That’s part of why our nightstands and dressers arrive fully assembled - furniture this sturdy can’t be flat-packed!
What are your tips for choosing the right furniture pieces to complement a room’s style and functionality?
Choosing pieces in a collection eliminates the worry they won’t be cohesive. Our Endy furniture uses a handful of finishes and colours so that they are easily interchangeable with one another, but still able to stand on their own. But if you get it home and it just isn’t right, our 30-day risk free trial has got you covered. Return it hassle free and give one of our other options a try - we’re happy to help you find the perfect piece for your home.
Now onto mattresses: What’s the most common misconception about choosing the right mattress, and how can customers avoid it?
I think a common misconception about choosing the right mattress is that you need the newest, biggest and best mattress on the market. With so many options out there, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by all of the bells and whistles. My tip is to tailor your investment to you, let your own sleep needs guide your decision by asking yourself some questions: what sleep position do I typically get comfy in, do I get hot in the middle of the night, could my lower back be better supported? If you go in knowing some of your must-haves, you won’t be swayed by features that won’t bring you much value, but will bring you a hefty price tag.And I get it, this process can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone! Our team of friendly Customer Experience Agents are here to help you navigate towards the best option for you, so you can feel confident in your decision. And if you live in the GTA, Halifax or Edmonton, stop by one of our stores to check out our mattresses yourself.
Can you share your top three tips for extending the lifespan of a mattress?
To extend the lifespan of your mattress, I would think three things: protect, rotate and support.
Use a mattress protector to add an extra, waterproof layer of defence against spills and stains, and natural wear and tear.
Rotating your mattress 180 degrees every six months helps distribute weight and wear evenly.
Use a supportive foundation to keep the mattress from sagging and allow the mattress to breathe. I recommend a traditional box spring, adjustable bed or slatted base (with gaps between slats not exceeding 3”).
What’s your favourite feature in our mattresses, and why do you think it stands out for sleepers?
For me, it has to be our pressure point relief. One of the highlights of my job is reading our customer reviews, and year after year I see countless people sharing how much the Endy Mattresses have relieved their pain, allowing them to finally get a good night's rest. As someone who suffered with sciatica for years, I realized just how true these reviews are when I switched over to my own Endy. The support and pressure point relief have been life changing, and that really stands out for sleepers. Styling your home and creating a cozy, functional space doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. With insights from experts like Van, who brings passion and skill to every product we create at Endy, you can approach your next design decision with confidence. Whether you’re selecting timeless furniture or finding the right mattress, remember thoughtful choices make all the difference. And with Endy’s customer-first approach and risk-free trials, you can enjoy the process knowing we’ve got your back. Your dream home—and dream sleep—are closer than you think!
