By 1936 he was a full-fledged upholsterer. In a few years he helped make mattresses by threading the looped buttons with a long needle (also known as tuffting) through the mattress. Buis began working at his fathers company at age 7 looping buttons with string tied to one end. He promptly moved his mattress company into the 86 East 8th.

In 1930 he purchased the "Brownstone Alley" building at 78-84 East 8th street. Buis had mastered the craft as a teenager apprentice in the Netherlands. For Fifteen years he labored in the garage behind his home at 139 East Fourteenth Street. Conveniently named Holland Bedding and Upholstery Co. Limbert, in 1915 began the fist successful mattress company in Holland Michigan. Thank you for making such a wonderful and affordable mattress! I really love it and would order again if ever in need of another.My Great Grandfather Gerrit Buis, a furniture upholsterer at Charles P. I was having such a hard time trying to find an affordable 3/4 full or 48"x75" mattress until finding this one. I purchased this item for my older 1983 Class C RV, which I live in full-time, and it fits perfectly. I also added a 2" memory foam topper and a waterproof zip-closed mattress protector to it but truthfully, if I hadn't already had the topper from my previous mattress, it would've still been fine. After opening the package, I made sure to pull on the cover/sides so it wasn't sticking to the foam inside and then let the mattress set untouched for 72 hours to regain it's shape. I have to say, I am quite surprised at how comfortable this mattress is! Usually for a mattress at this price point, I would have very little expectations of it being comfortable but this mattress was a sweet surprise.
