  • "The staff knowledge was extremely helpful and guided us to exactly what we really needed."

Cons:

  • "Con men with poor service. Phoned the day before to arrange 1st delivery of the morning as I'm literally around the corner from them. Was advised to be at property by 8am. 2hrs later still waiting!!!!"
  • "The guy in the shop that served us was I can only say felt quite paransing and looked down when asked questions."
  • "Appalling experience attempting to order a mattress online. Approximate delivery was 8-10 weeks after order in August. 10 weeks came and went, every week was another excuse.... more news next week etc etc."

  • "What a fiasco. Ordered a Hypnos headboard, received a stained, marked used looking headboard."
  • "Plus they charged me £25 to take the mattress from the curb to the bedroom. That used to be called customer service!!!"
