We needed a pair of single beds
We wanted to buy a pair of single beds and with the range at Bensons we had a few options. Helen identified our needs and showed us to our best option, which wasn’t the most expensive. Job done! Professional, knowledgeable and experienced. Thanks Helen.

You really are supported in getting the best bed and mattress for you!
We went in to have a look at some mattresses but I was reluctant to buy one just encase we did not like it, once we got it home, especially as they cost a lot of money. Rachael, the sleep expert came and introduced herself and she explained that we could return it within 40 days if we didn’t like it. She also took us to a bed that collected information as you layed down on it, in your sleep position and it showed you what mattress would be best for you and caused less pressure on your body. We then went round and tried out many mattresses and final we found one that we really loved. Rachael made it an enjoyable and easy process and she had so much knowledge which was so helpful. We cannot wait until our new mattress is delivered.

Great service both in store and delivery
We brought our otterman bed in the summer sale, great price and delivery was quick and easy. The delivery men even offered to take the boxes upstairs as they were large and heavy. Easy to put together the instructions were clear and only took aprox 30mins to assemble. Customer service in store was very good too (Mayflower Retail Park).
