Good selection

They had one of all the mattresses I wanted to try, available in the shop. And it's a nice shop, too.

Downsides - lots more paperwork than I expected (it feels like buying a car) and you have to wait weeks and weeks for the mattress to actually be delivered.

No one in the store to begin with and I was left to my own devices. The staff member did appear and apologise as someone had phoned in sick and he had to see to a delivery.

Horrible mattress

Horrible mattress! I spent 1500 to buy this mattress and after a week mattress started sinking in my back. My back is ruined. I called the company they sent someone to check but he claimed everything seems fine and they wont do anything about it. Please don't waste your hard earned money on this IGEL MATRESSES.

Deceived asthmatic!

I am asthmatic, so after reading some reviews about the mattress I wanted to buy, I visited my local store in Altrincham to decide if it was the right choice. I was told that reviews are mostly when people are not happy. As the mattress was on show in store and I was told that the "off gassing is just the fire retardant and all mattresses are sprayed with it"! I trusted the manager Chris who reassured me it was not an issue - even though I explained again I had Asthma. After 3 days of fully ventilating my spare room with open windows (even though it's so cold) - fans - the toxic smell is still so bad it has made me so wheezy and I can't risk sleeping on this mattress! I closed the windows overnight for 6 hours and the smell hit me again. I had to use 3 times my normal inhalor to stop the wheezing! I could have bought a similar mattress online, but I trusted the name of Benson! I am not willing to pay 10‰ of the price I paid when I clearly told more than 2 members of staff including the manager that I had health issues!!! Disgusted with the whole process!

Horrrrrrrrrible quality!!!!!!

Horrrrrrrrrible quality!!!!!!
We bought a bedroom from Benson for beds a year ago, a few days ago we started smelling mold in our bedroom after inspecting the walls, carpet, window, curtains, and everything else in the room and finding nothing we started inspecting the bed and side tables and LOOOK AT THE HORRORS WE FOUND !!!!! HORRIBLE WOOD WITH MOLD SPOREA AND MOLDY FABRIC. This is a horror show. We’re expecting a baby soon and now we have to throw away a bedroom we paid almost €2k on !!!!!! Do not buy from this shop. Its a health hazard !!!! There is literally no mold anywhere else in the room and we keep a very neat clean house! We vacuum the bed frame from dust every week!!!! laaaaaast thing we expected was that we were sleeping on a mold bomb!

Tempur mattress

Purchased a Tempur mattress today from Altrincham. Excellent service and knowledge. We had done some research and our assistant totally put our minds at rest and confirmed our choice. Would definitely recommend.
Looking forward to a good nights sleep!
