Prepare for email bombardment after sales

Sales person very informative and helpful
Process of sales was quick and easy but adding delivery for a £2000+ mattress was not good
£50 for disposal was too high local council was £20!
After sales avalanche of emails from Bensons is excessive

Excellent service and product range

Helpful advice and guidance from in-house staff enabled a bespoke solution that we would not have found on our own from an extensive range of in-house options. Patient, professional and well informed assistance from Andy throughout. Excellent experience from browsing to purchase. All admin very efficient to date with delivery set well within the forecast range. No reservations in recommending Bensons to others.

Buying a bed

Bed I looked at was checked for availability within a few minutes.
Sat down for a few more minutes to fill out paperwork and my bed was ordered.
Sales person was knowledgable and encouraged me to test the mattress for comfort.
Everything about the bed was discussed with me and what would happen on the day of delivery.

You’ll want to record your delivery

In store I cannot fault, the delivery however was a shambles.
One of the delivery guys dropped a heavy piece of a tv bed on my doorframe and broke it, I his delivery guy was wearing crocs, I also cannot believe the absolute disregard for health and safety.
This was witnessed by the 2 painters I had in the house as well as me. His words were that’s not my issue it’s a bensons issue.
He took a photo and said customer services will contact you tomorrow, they didn’t.
I contacted after a few days wait and they said “he said he didn’t do it so we have to believe him”
They offered me £100 when I said I will be taking legal action for the damaged door frame. I declined and will be taking legal action as the painters have already sent in a written statement whilst I am left with a broken door frame.

Hats off to Andy(Best Customer Service)

I’m especially mentioning Andy who welcomed me and my Partner with a big smile on his face and introduced us to the best bed and mattresses available in the shop. Andy was very friendly and polite and helped us to make sure we get a best product (Mattress) and we think, we made a good decision by visiting Bensons in Cardiff Gate.
Keep up the good work Andy 👍

Excellent service from staff member Liz in the Cardiff Gate store. She spent plenty of time with us allowing me to try the bed we had come in to look at and to try several mattresses whilst providing us with all the information we required. The store was clean and tidy and had a lovely calm feel to it especially with the lovely relaxing 70's music playing.

Great service from Bensons Beds

Great service from Bensons Beds. The delivery and assembly of our new bed was performed perfectly by Luke & Callum. They contacted me 30 minutes before arrival, arrived on time, took off their shoes when entering the house, were very careful in moving the bed parts into the house and up the stairs and assembled the bed exactly where we wanted it. They took away all the packing and left the bedroom perfect. Many thanks to Bensons Beds, Luke and Callum. Most impressed 👍

Been to several different similar stores and don't like it when you get pounced on as soon as you enter. It intimidates some people or they end up accepting being followed and harranged while they try and browse. That being said, when I asked for assistance, it was helpful. No wonder these stores on the most part are empty.
