Very comfortable, and while I haven't had it too long, I have three teenage boys plus a dog and cat who put a lot of wear on it, and it's standing up great! I buy from Dufresne and have always had great service. Realistically, within Brandon the 'big' name stores are all going to have similar quality products and services (warranties, etc), so I go with the quality of customer service I've received. Over many years Dufresne has always treated us great vs other stores (I will not shop at the Brick because of shitty customer service I've received). " |

Do all the stores have "similar" (or even the exact same stuff rebranded) products, I have seen the same big delivery trucks drop at all of them, including Kullbergs.
So it makes it increasingly difficult to boycott or support one company when they are all selling the exact same product.
Dufresne is the only one in town we have received consistently good service from, including warranty work.
That said, you still can get Canadian made (at least mostly so - some components are made in Canada, some still made over seas unfortunately). If you can't find fully Canadian made products then there are some excellent brands out of the US.
FYI, Costco online carries Canadian and US made products, just do a little reading. The only thing that sucks is you cannot see or feel the products before they get to you. Though they do have excellent delivery and return policies. And you can apparently shop Costoc.ca without a membership.
