The Annex - Yorkdale Experience: Exploring Our Toronto Showroom and Neighbourhood

Nestled between the refined elegance of Yorkville and the eclectic charm of the Annex, our Toronto showroom at 287 Davenport Road offers a serene retreat from the city's constant motion. Here, amidst the urban landscape, we've created a space that invites pause - a quiet sanctuary where you can explore sleep preferences with intention and care. This is our open invitation to experience firsthand the craftsmanship and attention to detail that has defined Black Sheep Mattress since our inception.
A Personalized Approach to Comfort
Stepping into our showroom marks an intentional departure from conventional mattress retail experiences. Where others opt for overwhelming variety and high-pressure sales tactics, we've chosen a different path. Our space celebrates clean lines and uncluttered presentation. It’s a physical manifestation of our sleep philosophy that values quality over quantity, substance over excess.
Natural light filters through our windows, illuminating each handcrafted piece and allowing it to command its deserved attention. The materials speak for themselves: Canadian wool, organic cotton, natural latex, all thoughtfully sourced and meticulously assembled by skilled artisans who understand that a mattress is not merely a product but a foundation for wellbeing.
Your Toronto Showroom Experience, Your Way
Our Toronto team approaches each visitor with the same care that goes into our mattresses. Our Founder, Christian, and Mattress Expert, Madeleine, are present not as salespeople but as guides, ready to illuminate the subtle distinctions between our fully Canadian-made options while respecting your personal journey toward better sleep.
We understand that meaningful decisions cannot be rushed. If you prefer to navigate our collection independently, we honor that preference, creating space for you to experience each mattress at your own pace. Take time to notice how your body responds to different levels of support. Observe the quality of materials against your skin. Compare the subtle variations in comfort that make each of our mattresses unique. When you're ready for conversation, we're here to address questions with transparent, informed responses - no sales pressure, just genuine dialogue about your sleep needs.
