Ashley Furniture in Great Falls is available at Payless Furniture & Mattress at 116 Central Ave. West. The Ashley brand at Payless covers bedroom furniture, including panel beds, sleigh beds, full bedroom sets, headboards, dressers, nightstands, mirrors, and bed components. If you’re upgrading the bed frame or building out a full bedroom, Ashley is one of the most reliable brands for value-driven shoppers who want quality without overspending.
Mattresses are sold under separate brands at the same store, so you can also stop in and have the showroom team help you put a complete bedroom together in one visit.
Who Is Ashley Furniture?
Ashley Furniture Industries was founded in 1945 and is now headquartered in Arcadia, Wisconsin. The company is the largest furniture manufacturer in the world and has been the top-selling furniture brand in the U.S. for over 20 consecutive years. In 2007, Ashley passed Walmart to become the number-one retailer of furniture and bedding in the country.
That scale matters when you’re shopping. Ashley owns its supply chain from manufacturing through retail, which keeps prices lower than smaller brands can match. You’re not paying for layers of middlemen.
What Ashley Furniture Covers at Payless
The Ashley brand at Payless Furniture focuses on bedroom furniture pieces that anchor the room. Here’s what you’ll find:
Bedroom Sets
Full coordinated Ashley bedroom sets typically include a bed (headboard, footboard, rails), one or two nightstands, and a dresser with mirror. Some sets add a chest of drawers. Buying as a set saves money compared to picking each piece separately and keeps the finish, hardware, and proportions consistent across the room.
Beds
Ashley beds at Payless come in panel, sleigh, storage, upholstered, and platform styles across queen, king, and full sizes. The Ashley Arkenton king panel bed, for example, is a contemporary panel bed designed to anchor a larger master bedroom. Other collections lean traditional, farmhouse, or modern.
Bed Components
Bed components like headboards, footboards, rails, and storage units are sold individually. This is useful if you already own a frame and want to refresh just one piece, or if you’re piecing a custom setup together rather than buying a full set.
Dressers, Nightstands, Mirrors, and Chests
The supporting pieces that round out a bedroom (dressers, nightstands, mirrors, chests of drawers, benches) match up with the bed collections. Many of these fall under the Signature Design by Ashley line, which is Ashley’s transitional and modern-style sub-brand.
A Closer Look at the Arkenton Collection
The Arkenton collection is a strong example of how Ashley designs full bedroom sets to coordinate visually. Pieces in the collection at Payless include:
- Arkenton king panel bed – the centerpiece of the room
- Arkenton dresser – wide storage with the same finish and hardware as the bed
- Arkenton bedroom mirror – designed to sit above the dresser
- Arkenton nightstand – matching side table for one or both sides of the bed
- Arkenton dresser and mirror combo – sold together as a set for additional value
Other collections at Payless include Aidman, Ferrilby, and Rogerland, each with its own style range from farmhouse to traditional to transitional. Stop in at 116 Central Ave. West or call 406-453-4582 to see which Ashley collections are currently on the floor in Great Falls.
Adding a Mattress in the Same Visit
Ashley sells beds and bedroom furniture, but the mattress comes from a separate brand. The good news is that Payless Furniture stocks several mattress lines at the same showroom, so when you’re picking out your Ashley bed, the team can walk you through mattress options that fit your frame and your sleep style.
The mattress brands at Payless include:
- Ashley Sleep (part of the same parent company as Ashley Furniture Industries) covers innerspring, memory foam, and hybrid options
- Sierra Sleep (also under Ashley) focuses on budget-friendly mattresses for guest rooms, kids’ rooms, and first apartments
- Malouf Sleep rounds out the bedding category with pillows, sheets, and mattress accessories
- Nectar is the adjustable base option if you want a power base under your mattress
Putting an Ashley bed together with the right mattress is best done in the showroom. You can lie on each mattress in person, see how it sits in the bed frame, and ask the team for recommendations based on your sleep style and budget.

Who Ashley Furniture in Great Falls MT Works Best For
Ashley is a strong fit if you’re:
- Furnishing a complete bedroom from scratch. Coordinated sets save time and headaches.
- A budget-conscious buyer. Ashley competes hard on price-to-quality.
- Upgrading a guest room or kids’ room. Ashley pieces deliver real value at low cost.
- Looking for a modern panel bed. The Arkenton collection is one of the most popular contemporary lines at Payless.
- Building out a coordinated room over time. Buying the bed first and adding the dresser, mirror, and nightstand later still works since the pieces are designed to match.
Who Might Look at Other Brands
A few cases where you might want to consider other options:
- You want a luxury or designer-label experience. Ashley competes on value, not premium branding.
- You need a highly custom or made-to-order piece. Ashley is built on consistency and scale, not custom builds.
- You’re after a very specific antique or one-of-a-kind look. Ashley collections are factory-made, not vintage.
What to Look at in the Showroom
When you stop in to see Ashley Furniture in Great Falls MT:
- Look at full bedroom sets in person. Photos don’t show scale or finish accuracy.
- Check the bed components. Run your hand along the rails, check the hardware, look at the headboard from the side.
- Sit on the dresser drawers. Pull them out fully to check the glide. Quality differs between collections.
- Test the matching mattress at the same time. Lie on each option for 10 to 15 minutes in your real sleep position.
- Ask about delivery and financing. Confirm what’s in stock for pickup versus delivery wait time, and ask about financing options if you’re spreading out the cost.
