Buyer beware.

Bought a Sirius Bonell mattress via Groupon ready for bedroom refurbishment.
Wasn't comfortable from the outset. The springs creak and groan with the slightest movement.
Absolutely no comfort or support. It's only been slept on five times and has only become less comfortable.
Even the most heroic mattress topper can't come to the aid of this most uncomfortable thing.
I've slept in some pretty rough conditions over the years but this goes above and beyond.
Thankfully I've a relatively comfortable sofa to fall back on. Hope to return and receive a refund shortly.
To my mind, not of merchantable quality and not fit for purpose.

Terrible mattress and awful customer service I AM STILL WAITING FOR A REPLY

I brought a budget mattress for our guest room, the guest could feel every spring and every time they moved they thought they was going to fall off it so after an hour had to sleep on the sofa.

I have contacted yourselves to be told two different things…the first person said I could return it but at my own cost and they would send a label which I thought was terrible as it’s the quality of the mattress as to why we are sending it back…then this morning I received an email to say because it’s been slept on for AN HOUR I cannot return this for health and safety reasons…well you shouldn’t be able to sell a mattress like this for health and safety reasons.

I will be taking the matter further,,terrible customer service and an awful mattress I am now stuck with.

Hi there,

I'm very sorry to hear this, we have requested some information to rectify the situation however have had no reply.

We are unable to have opened mattresses back in our factory due to UK Health & Hygiene Regulations which I'm sure you can appreciate a high standard of hygiene in a factory that makes mattresses.

If you're able to reach out to us at info@thesleeppeople.co.uk we would be more than happy to assist in any way possible.

Kindest regards,

Michael

Very poor quality mattress

Orderd a mattress via the range website. Mattress looks like it's past its used by date and ready to be replaced. There is no support to the mattress. You literally roll off the edges. Tried returning via the range who said I need to contact the Sleep People direct but their email address is invalid. Brand new mattress not fit for purpose. Once I was able to speak to someone at the sleep people, a refund was arranged

We had a problem with one of the Mattresses

We had a problem with one of the mattresses we ordered. Good mattress but the wrong size was sent. Made contact and spoke to Megan Norberry, Megan was totally superb in her dealing with the matter. It was resolved with a couple of Phone calls and a couple of E-Mails. Megan was absolutely first class in every way, polite resourceful and a great sense of humour throughout. Thank Megan you are a great ambassador for your company. Should we need further furniture we will most deffinately use your company again. Gave the rating as Five Stars..... should be TEN for me once again many thanks Megan.

mattress smells toxic

Purchased a mattress via b&q. I have confirmed it is the same company. But this mattress has an awful mould/toxic smell to it now I’ve tried everything and thought it was just me till I saw a review saying the exact same thing! Very disappointing!

Martha from The sleep people was so kind and helpful. Took 3 minutes to solve the problem of the matress being to big. They even donated the mattress to charity. A very kind caring person and company. Highly recommend them.

Ordered mattress from Debenhams

Ordered mattress from Debenhams, at least I thought I had. They took the money and first thing I received a message from D.B.Z saying it was due to arrive the following Wednesday but alarms were starting to go off as it mentioned a company called The Sleep people.
I waited to hear from Yodel, yes that company that fills you with dread as to exactly when it would be delivered.And waited. The scheduled day arrived and checking Yodels webpage it appears they havn't even picked it up yet.
So it starts, Debenhams have no customer service telephone number, no email and the options of contacting them via social media simply do not work.
So I turned my attentions to Yodel who said they had not had instructions to pick the item up although a number had been allocated to the job. When pressed they said the order was generated by a company called Starlight beds.
Starlight beds in the form of ..... finally answered after I had been placed on hold and then cut off several times. ..... was happy to check on what had gone wrong and immediately threw the blame firmly at Yodel losing the package. When I said that was a lie because Yodel had already told me they were still waiting for instructions to collect, she then said she could reorder or refund the money reorder would mean further delay so I opted for a refund, will I get it? and who is doing the reimbursement as I still think I ordered from Debenhams, Didn't I.
Time will tell but I suggest you stay away from any of the companies involved in this debacle of a sale.

Good morning,

I offer my sincere apologies, for the experience you have had. Upon your initial contact we investigated your issue straight away, and looked at the tracking information which was available. On the public facing tracking, this shows that it had not been collected, however on our side, it had its initial scan once it was collected from ourselves. As per your contact with our customer service team, we had worries that this had been lost, due to the fact this had no scans since it was loaded. We offered the resolutions of a refund, or a replacement item being sent out. You opted for the refund which was processed immediately by ourselves. This can take up to 5 working days to be with you, depending on your original payment method. If you have any further problems, please do not hesitate to get back in contact with our customer service team.

Kind regards,
Megan

Custom made topper

As my motorhome (Ruby) is just coming up to twenty years old this year, with all her original upholstery, the cushions are rather hard for sleeping on. Much as I love her, the foam clearly has seen better times and I have often ended up getting up in the mornings with a stiff back.

So as I saw an offer of a mattress topper being sold by The Range, I bought one. Unfortunately it turned out to be too large because I still have trouble with metric measurements (my excuse is that I am nearly eighty & was brought up with imperial). The Range told me I would have to deal direct with the manufacturer, The Sleep People, so that is what I did.

When I contacted them, the initial reaction was that it would not be possible to get a replacement topper made smaller since the one I had bought was a standard size. However after discussion with one of the staff, Megan Norbury, she said that their sister company might just be able to accommodate me & she would enquire & get some prices for me.

When Megan got back to me, she had been successful and for an additional cost, they could make me a custom topper. To save further outlay on couriers and because I was going away anyway, I went up to Ossett to fetch the new topper – it fitted the single sofa perfectly and I am delighted with it. Not only have I had five successive nights’ sleep (successful) with no back trouble in the mornings, I am delighted not only with that, but the service I received.

Well done Megan, you are a real asset to the company; & I trust that they fully appreciate you - thank you so much!! x

Helpful service

After making a mistake with an order through Debenhams, I emailed this company and was helped by Martha. She was extremely helpful in sorting out a courier to collect the order swiftly and processing the refund. I could not recommend the customer service from this company enough

Fantastic service and product

I ordered a mattress topper for delivery by a specific date and after speaking with Martha my order was delivered on time which enabled my dad to be discharged from hospital. I was very happy with the service I received.
