Last Saturday, Nov. 15th, was literally a record-breaking day for Verlo Mattress as we marked the grand opening of our new flagship store in Greenfield, WI, by successfully breaking the Guinness World Record for the Tallest Stack of Mattresses.

Crowds braved a cold winter morning to witness the new record-setting height of 16 feet, 5.25 inches, and to partake in the opening ceremonies that included a balloon launch, prizes, food and store tours.

“We’re truly taking mattress shopping to new heights and what better way to show it than by beating a world record,” said Verlo Mattress CEO Chris Nolte.

Enjoy looking at some of the highlights of what was a very exciting day.

Mattresses were carefully measured by Guinness Official Johanna Hessling. The record-breaking measurement was 16 feet, 5.25 inches.
