Good communication throughout, from ordering to delivery. Turned up on time, ensured area was safe before entering. Old bed was removed quickly. New bed was assembled quickly and the bed was placed exactly where we wanted it. All packaging was removed. Professional and courteous. Highly recommend.

Excellent communication

I had a delivery time for a new bed and mattress of 1 to 3 pm. A phone call from the shop about 10am I informed me of a delay regarding delivery time. A further phone call confirmed the delivery time was going to be about 6.30 pm. I was given the option of deferring the delivery until the following day. I chose to take delivery.
Th van finally pulled up around 7pm. The lads were very apologetic about the delay. They delivered and assembled the new bed and mattress. The old bed was removed as agreed. They were very professional, friendly and competent.
On the basis of the way I was informed of the delays and the attitude attitudes of all of the staff I am happy to give Benson five stars.

From a phone enquiry

From a phone enquiry, confirm the colour of an ottoman, to purchasing a different one, due to a delivery time of 14 weeks.
Which was not acceptable, Amin showed us an alternative that can be delivered within 2 weeks.

Do not rely on the test bed machine in store, or advice from staff.

I visited my local store as I knew I wanted an Igel mattress (my last one was fabulous) but needed to know which one would be the right choice. I was greeted warmly by one member of staff who listened to what I was looking for. He then offered for me to use the test bed that evaluates your body distribution and tells you which firmness would suit best. The machine indicated a medium to firm mattress would suit. The man then told me it would make sense to go with firm, as the mattress will soften over time. As such I ordered a firm IGel 4000 mattress. It arrived in good time. I was even able to negotiate the sale price that was offered the day after I ordered it. The finance deal was easy to sort too. Great. The mattress arrived and I was emailed some advice on how to take receipt of it and prepare it for use. Great.
There is a 60 day mattress comfort guarantee. Which would be great. Except if you're told the mattress will soften, it isn't going to soften in that time. So when the time lapsed and I was experiencing agonising new back and hip pain I reached out to explain the situation. I used the chat facility. They advised I could use the returns option if the staff member could corroborate the advice I was given. Great. However, despite the store having my details at the time of my visit, they could not access this now. And so it was down to the advisor 'admitting' the advice he gave 2.5 months ago. Unfurtunately I am now nearly 2 weeks into expecting a call back from the advisor and it hasn't come. When I spoke to their colleague on the phone I was advised it was unlikely he would 'take blame' but that he would call me to discuss it. As far as I was concerned, it wasn't a 'fault/blame' issue. More a 'this was the advice I gave'. Had the advisor confirmed the guidance he gave me, I could have returned the mattress and swapped for a medium firmness. Though I would have been charged 10% of the cost. So that's a £170 charge for a return, plus a new delivery fee for the replacement mattress. So I now have a £1700 mattress that doesn't suit my body. And with no option to even pay for an exchange, I now need to pay around £200 to get a softer topper. Which I will not be purchasing through this shop. I hope this review helps someone to be aware of what their options are if they commit to purchasing through Bensons. Some good bits of service. Very sadly let down by significant issues at the end. Disappointing.
