Bed was delivered but not built as expected. Not sure where that went wrong. Pretty sure I asked for a build. Delivery people not particularly helpful though they had had a rough start to the day (flat tyre). Suggested I phoned Dumfries Bensons - who were very helpful and organised a local joiner. He told me I was the second problematic delivery he had put right that day

We regret that your bed wasn't built upon delivery as expected, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We're sorry the delivery team couldn't assist further. We're, however, happy that our Dumfries team was helpful in resolving the issue. We'll investigate what happened with the assembly request.

Great experience
Great staff (Kristi, in particular) and choice of mattresses. No pressure to buy or choose quickly, which is just what I needed to assess the best mattress for a bad lower back.

We bought a new mattress at Dumfries
We bought a new mattress at Dumfries. The gentleman we dealt with was very courteous and helpful, explaining all the relevant aspects of a orthopaedic mattress. This allowed us to choose the one we felt we required. He ensured we were shown all the differing options and was very professional in doing so.

Storage problem sorted.
We went in looking for a Draw Divan as we are down sizing and need all the storage space we can make. Tracey, the assistant approached us as she had noticed us looking at Divans.
She suggested ( or rather showed us)an Ottoman, which to be honest I hadn’t thought about.
That was the perfect solution to our storage problem. I was delighted on the idea. We will be placing an order once we receive a moving date. Thank you Tracey.

Went to look for a mattress and didn’t really know which one to choose. The staff were very informative and guided us to a suitable mattress for our needs and budget. No pressure to purchase a more expensive one, we were shown an expensive one which we stated that we didn’t want to spend that amount. Staff very friendly and nice. Very pleased with the service.
