The service in the store from Adie was 2nd to none. We were kept informed of the progress of our order & delivery right up to 1 hour before on the day. The delivery men were very courteous when they arrived. The only complaint was that £50 per mattress to clear the old ones was a bit excessive in cost when you are spending 2.5k.

Find a Mattress

My wife & I received a First class service when we visited the Brighton store off Benson for beds. Ade the salesman was very informative and clarified all the inquiries we had regarding the different options and our needs. This was a pleasant experience and gave us the reassurance to make the purchase.

Sales Pressure Over Back Care (Back Pain Sufferers Beware)

UPDATE, 25/06/26 following Bensons response saying they would look into this, I have heard nothing, now looking into trying to sell the mattress and recoup some monies to pay off the finance as I am completely fed up with the back pain in the morning, this Tempur mattress was a complete waste of money!! I will then be looking at independant retailers who offer the longer trial period and actually care about their customers...

I am writing to warn others, especially those with back issues, about the sales tactics and poor advice given at Bensons for Beds. My partner and I visited the Brighton store to find a suitable mattress for my specific lower back problems.
The Experience:
From the start, the sales staff pushed the Tempur range, ignoring my initial hesitation over price and whether these were suitable for my needs.
We first opted for a Sealy Posturepedic and really gave it a go in the time frame we had but found it felt too hard. Because the Bensons "Sleep Guarantee" is short (40 nights) compared to the 100-night industry standard, we had to make a quick decision to exchange it.
Upon returning to the store, instead of listening to my feedback, the staff yet again pushed us towards the Tempur Pro Plus SmartCool, recommending a "Medium" firmness for my back condition. We trusted their "expert" advice and agreed to pay the difference, which also turned out to be a disaster, as the manager later called and explained we had to take out a second finance agreement as this could not be added to the initial finance agreement, this was something else that was not conveyed in the shop visit.
The Result (6 Weeks Later Since Delivery):
This recommendation has been disastrous. The "Medium" tension provides zero support for my back. I am sinking so deeply into the mattress that at times I can barely move or turn over, and I am waking up in severe pain every morning. It is essentially unsleepable, and more importantly not fit for purpose.
The Warning:
Bensons seems more interested in pushing expensive Tempur foam mattresses than listening to medical needs. If you have back problems, do not rely on their in-store advice. We are now left with a premium-priced bed that is ruining my back and uncomfortable, and because we have already used our one "exchange," which was also not clearly explained in store, we are left with few options. We have spoken to the store and Sarif in Customer Service to no avail. They are not interested. Proceed with extreme caution.

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We're sorry to hear about the difficulties you've experienced with our advice and the mattress. It's regrettable that the suggested mattress hasn't provided the support you require, and that the finance agreement wasn't clearly explained. We're taking your feedback seriously and will look into these issues.

Hello


UPDATE:
After posting this review,
Benson for Beds responded publicly saying they would help resolve the issue.
However,when we spoke to them directly by phone, we were told again that they cannot help and take no responsibility.
We purchased the base on 6 January 2026 and the mattress on 11 February 2026.
It is not acceptable for moisture to develop under the mattress and inside the base in such a short period of time.
Despite the 10-year guarantee that was advertised, no solution has been offered.
The contradiction between their public response and their private communication is very disappointing.The moisture issue remains unresolved.

Bought in Brighton store

Bought in Brighton store, dealt with Manisha and her colleague from Co. Down (didn't get his name). Honest and upfront in explaining the pros and cons of all options.
Delivery bang on time. Deliver guys very professional in assembly and removal of old bed.
Seamless and stress free from start to finish.
Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Brilliant experience in store

Brilliant experience in store, your colleague Iqbal in the Brighton store was very friendly and he provided great advice. I went back for a price match deal and the gentleman that took care of me then too was great.

Delivery easy and the mattress is just like in store, I went for the Igel nano 2500. Love it. Great value and easy process.
