Reviewers often highlight helpful, well-informed sales staff and delivery teams that arrive on time. Several reviews describe major product problems, including sagging mattresses, lingering smells, and broken bed parts. Some customers say they received the wrong items, waited on missing pieces, or saw complaints go nowhere. Overall, the feedback shows a stark split between strong service encounters and weak product or fulfilment results.
Examples from available reviews (Feb 2023 – Mar 2026).
Great instore experience, with knowledgeable, help...
“Great instore experience, with knowledgeable, help...”
Ordering was easy and delivery and assembly were smooth.
“Easy to order, delivered and put together with ease. Great service all round.”
Mattress sagged after two nights and refund/exchange policy caused financial loss.
“£2000 mattresses sagged after two nights sleep on it.”
Multiple delivery errors, faulty replacements and repeated rescheduling caused major delays.
“I was sent the wrong product in the first place.”
Most service feedback is positive, with reviewers describing patient, knowledgeable store staff and considerate delivery crews. They mention in-store demonstrations, low-pressure sales, and installers who take care around the home. Fewer reviews point to service issues, such as messy call-centre exchanges and refusal to accept simple returns.
Price and value come up only occasionally. Some customers call the pricing fair and mention discounts being arranged, while a few note prices dropping after purchase and say exchanges left them out of pocket.
Customers often describe ordering as easy, the website as simple to use, and in-store mattress trials as straightforward. Several reviews mention same-day assembly or fast, tidy installations. A smaller number report missing parts and repeated delivery changes that disrupted the experience.
A noticeable set of negative reviews reports sagging mattresses, heavy deformation, persistent odours, and divan parts failing. Multiple reviewers link this to comfort or health problems and describe warranty or refund attempts that did not work out. Positive product comments appear too, but less often than the defect reports.
Many reviewers praise clear delivery updates and polite explanations in store. Others describe weak follow-up, complaints that went unanswered, and at least one hostile store exchange. These communication problems seem less common but have a big impact when they happen.
Reviews show a clear split: high ratings for service versus low ratings tied to product faults or fulfilment problems. Some shoppers describe a smooth run from advice to installation. Others report repeated mistakes that turned into long disputes with no resolution.
For each review, the core experience based on original source reviews.
