The man listened to what I was looking for. And my price range and didn't push me or make me feel uncomfortable. Was very relaxed and knew what I needed. Very helpful with dates for delivery.

Fabulous service and bed/mattress!

The store is spacious and the service was very good and helpful. I'll have surgery soon so have bought a luxurious new bed and mattress to help myself with the post-surgery recovery. The mattress is firm and supportive. I love it!

Good service and good value

Very helpful staff to ensure we got the right mattresses and the 40 day exchange guarantee gives peace of mind

Delivered on time by very helpful delivery guys who took away the old mattresses.

Service was excellent

Service was excellent, St Clair was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable what more could you ask for!? The beds / mattresses seemed great quality and the fact that once it’s been delivered we will have 40 days to sleep on it and return it if not happy is very reassuring. Happy customers!

Great customer service

Visited the oxford branch, and Haroon helped my girlfriend and I find a mattress and bedframe for our new house. We tried the bed matching machine which was fun and Haroon was friendly, informative and very attentive while at the same time not hovering or pressuring us to make a decision, which we really appreciate when shopping in a store. Great service :)

Lack of info from store caused grief but very good customer services

Everything was fine with our Dreams purchase, right until today when the delivery arrived.

Sales experience was good with no pressure. We tried lots of mattresses and eventually settled upon one, quite an expensive super king.

Today, the delivery driver arrived and knew straight away that the mattress wouldn't make it up our stairs as they have a bend in them and the mattress has a frame. Apparently they should have asked us about the staircase when we were in the store. He said they have an approx 40% return rate on these mattresses because many people (most?) don't have a straight staircase up into the bedroom so can't bring them upstairs without damaging the mattress.

I am beyond annoyed at this - we both have bad backs and have been looking forward to this and now we have the hassle of starting all over again. I don't trust Dreams at all now.

Edit: excellent customer services from Liza Evans and a visit to a second store with a very helpful staff member (David at the Leamington Store) has reassured me somewhat. A much more expensive mattress but a discount makes up for a lot. Upping review to 3 stars in recognition of the effort by Dreams to put things right. Let's see what happens when the mattress is delivered and I will revisit this review then.

Edit: the new mattress finally delivered without hassle so upping to 4 stars.

Good afternoon Simon

Thanks for leaving us your review. We are sorry to hear that the mattress you purchased, wouldn't fit and how this has dampened an albeit pleasurable buying experience.
Glad I was able to speak to you earlier to discuss proposals on how this can be remedied for you and thrilled you're open to this recommendation.
I have emailed you acknowledging your disappointment with the non delivery of your mattress and this also contains my direct contact details.
Please do let me know if there's anything else I can help with.

Many thanks

Bed-cellent service from Jeff at the Oxford Store.

After purchasing an online mattress which my wife found uncomfortable we decided to visit a good old fashioned store. Jeff was very helpful from start to finish and we just hope the mattress lives up to the service we received when it arrives.

Great experience at the store

Great experience at the store, helpful customer service, covid 19 precautions taken seriously, and walked out with a discount I wouldn't have found online. 10/10 experience.

Very professional

Apart from the lack of any advance warning of exactly when the product would be delivered, we were otherwise very impressed with the professionalism of Dream staff and systems.

Definitely recommend

Choosing a mattress was a lot easier than we expected with sleepmatch. Staff were very helpful and efficient, and gave us some great bundle deals with our mattress.

Delivery delay

Had a great experience in store, and was sold a product and told it would be delivered the week after. I’ve just had an email telling me there is a delay of 3 weeks. After calling customer services they offered me a goodwill gesture of £100 which simply isn’t good enough for the value of the product or the delay I’ve been given. I’ve had to accept as my hands are tied, but feel really let down and duped by dreams as they’ve sold me a product which they don’t have in stock, and only let me know about the delay 2 days before the delivery date. So if you want a new mattress in good time, avoid.

EDIT.

After my trust pilot review I was offered some compensation. Still very unhappy with the delay.

Helpful Staff

St Clair in the Oxford store was extremely helpful and attentive. He helped us to select products that were right for us, providing us with all the information we needed to make an informed decision, without feeling pressured into making a purchase. Did not feel rushed at any point even though the store was due to close.

The mattress got a hole with a sharp bit of metal pointing out after only 16 months. Customer service said there was nothing they could do since it was out of its 12 month warranty but this is clearly a fault with the mattress. Would not buy from them again. You clearly don't get better quality by spending more money.

Good Afternoon Miss Dean,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review.

I am sorry to hear that you have been experiencing an issue with your mattress.

I have sent an email to you asking for photos of the mattress so that I can discuss this with you and look into this further.

Kind Regards

They really are the Dream Team - first class service.

After a really bad experience buying an ottoman bed bundle online from Nectar (subsequently returned after much drama) we went to the Botley branch of Dreams. Although very busy (staff were having some sort of meeting behind the scenes) the salesman still on the shop floor took the time to acknowledge us, unlike so many complacent sales folk who often look straight through you. Great salesman without being pushy. Delivery time for our ottoman bed was longer than we’d hoped, but it’s been worth the wait. Communication has been excellent, kept informed on its progress every step of the way. Delivery men truly were the Dream Team (sorry!). Bang on time, polite, knowledgeable, assembled the bed for us, asked us to take down vulnerable wall mirrors before taking the bed upstairs, took all packaging away. What a delight, a company that does actually deliver what they promise. Can’t comment on the longevity of the bed or mattress yet, obviously, but delighted with it. The additional storage space it provides has to be seen to be believed. Highly recommend it, and Dreams.
