Shovlin Mattress Factory Timeline
Ron Shovlin and Kara Shovlin - a husband and wife duo – are owners of Shovlin Mattress. Formerly known as “The Mattress Factory,” the business was founded by Brian Strell in 1972. Marlene and Richard Shovlin, Ron’s mother and father, eventually bought the business as their own in 1987. Upon Ron becoming the sole owner of the flagship store in 2007, the name was changed to Shovlin Mattress.
Ron and Kara are extremely knowledgeable and are great at myth-busting different aspects of the mattress industry! Shovlin’s Mattress Company's commitment to their customers:
We build it, we deliver it, and we back it 100%. We’ve been a family-owned and operated business for 50 years and we’re proud to have less than a 1% refund rate. For real.

Shovlin Accessories & Components
Adjustable Bed Frames:
Adjustable bed frames provides the advantage of multiple positions, adapting to the sleepers preferences at the touch of a button. Raise your head, upper body, or legs as desired. Elevating the upper body can help with a plethora of health issues, such as sleep apnea, acid reflux and heartburn, and snoring. Adjustable beds can also help with improved circulation and relieve muscle, joint and back pain, as well as make reading of watching TV much more comfortable, and preventing muscle strain. Shovlin Mattress recommends that consumers have a discussion with their healthcare practitioner to ask how an adjustable bed might be the right fit for their needs.
Removable 2” Pillow Tops:
Finding the right mattress comfort level is very important for any sleeper; there is no such thing as too soft or too plush. Shovlin developed their removable pillow tops to allow for maximum customization of your sleep system. Aside from adding comfort, the extra pillow top padding alleviates pressure off of hips, shoulders, and knees while still providing firm support. Shovlin can make pillow tops for any shape and size of mattress; they handcraft and manufacture pillow tops for sleeper sofas, boat mattresses, futons. And more.
Mattress Pads:
A mattress can be an important investment for any consumer. Protecting your mattress and keeping it pristine and clean from any accidental spills or just normal daily wear, helping to keep your mattress as pristine as when it was purchased. Shovlin Mattress supports USA-made (made in New Jersey) products made with quality and care. SlumberShield, their provider of machine washable mattress pads. The breathe-a-Barrier® Fluid-Proof Technology allows body heat to pass through it and provides a luxurious feel and cool sleep surface. Not only is it durable, but it's also thin enough that it does not change the comfort or feel of the mattress while protecting it against dust mites, allergens, and even stains.
Iron Bed Frames:
Wesley Allen is the leading manufacturer and designer of expressive and eclectic iron furniture. Similar to Shovlin, they have a track record for superior quality and continue to deliver affordability without sacrificing quality and aesthetics.

Pillows:
A Shovlin mattress deserves a quality pillow to ensure you sleep deeper and better. It is just as important to support your head, neck, and shoulders, as it is the rest of your body as you sleep. Like their mattresses, these pillows are manufactured with quality and care. The BedGear Storm Series pillow features four different comfort levels, supporting back , side, stomach and multi- position sleepers. Their pillows are made with a unique dual chamber construction featuring a foam crown & foam blend, ensuring weightless pressure relief that won’t bottom out, providing soft support with no rebound. The climate-control fabric provides a cool-to-touch feeling & continuous heat deflection, regulating body temperature for a cooler nights’ rest. The ventilated panels increase airflow and feature a filter fabric that prevents allergens and dander from entering the pillow core. Cleaning and care are easy, as the covers are removable and washable.

Traditional innerspring mattresses are hard to find but Shovlin is one of the few manufacturers who still make them: Custom-built two-sided innerspring mattresses to meet any desired firmness level & construction. They are made with the best innerspring in the industry, heaviest gauge coils & most supportive side steel edges - making them both comfortable and long-lasting.
This high level of quality is hard to find since most national brands no longer provide two-sided innerspring construction at all, and they cut corners by using foam side guards (Shovlin uses steel), weak coil springs (Shovlin’s are strong), and less dense foam yet national brands charge much more than Shovlin does. Another thing they can't say? Almost all Shovlin mattresses can be flipped & rotated, allowing the cushioning & support pads to recover to their original shape & giving them the ability to far outlast those comparable national brands. Better news yet! They have attachable pillow top options for additional comfort if desired.

You don't need to go to Bora Bora to get a piece of paradise in bed. Latex Nirvana mattresses – are the most popular – with a following of their own! These one-sided mattresses conform to people of all shapes and sizes with very little pressure applied to the body yet having appropriate spinal orthopedic support. There's little to no motion transfer in the mattress.
The Latex Nirvana line provides you with up to 33% more pressure relief than conventional or memory foam bedding, cradling all body types with superior support by adding 6" of Talalay latex near the surface, giving you support from head to toe. It outlasts the Tempurpedic brand models, as well as other nationally known memory foam and innerspring brands. The mattress is built with the highest quality latex materials in the industry (while national brands use man-made products created by blending latex with other materials to create an inexpensive, inferior alternative). As a result, no turning or flipping is needed to maintain its perfection. While a Latex Nirvana Collection mattress can cost more than conventional innerspring mattresses, latex will support you longer, more comfortably night after night for years to come.
This mattress is placed on top of a very solid Semi-Flex foundation made of solid wood & metal, acting as a platform but as visually appealing as a box spring. It's even better on an adjustable power base to truly get that French-Polynesia-villa-over-water luxury experience. The Latex Nirvana line has a mattress height of 11" and an option of adding a detached, one-sided 2" pillow top for a 13" height total.
