Clean & tidy store displaying the furniture I was looking for. Greeted by the assistant on entering but then left to browse at my leisure without being made to feel pressured to buy.

Not pushy

Gary was fabulous, no pushy selling, answered our questions and explained when the offers ran out, hence we bought a mattress we hadn't planned on buying but very happy and looking forward to its delivery, we will definitely recommend the bury st Edmunds store and likely be back when we need to buy a new bed.

Rude

Weve used this store before and they've always been great. This time we went in to ask about a cheap bed frame we'd seen on the website to be told we were wrong and a quality company wouldn't sell anything like that. He then suggested we go to argos. He was extremely rude, and dismissive. Wouldn't even check if we were right. We'll go elsewhere in future.

New mattress

Store staff very helpful. Especially Chloe.
Did not try to push us into anything we didn't want. Answered all questions we had about the mattress.
Quick delivery lead. On time. Phoned me 30 minutes away. Old mattress out, new one in, and rubbish cleared away. Nice chaps too, very polite.

Excellent service

Our Sleep Expert Gary gave us assistance as soon as you enter the store. Honest and very helpful opinions about what type of mattress we required, even assisted on black Friday deal to get an idea of how much it would cost overall.

Brilliant experience

Brilliant. Gary was so friendly and so helpful and gave us some great advice which ultimately led to us purchasing a king mattress, 2x mattress protectors and 2x pillows too! Lots of different beds for us to try which helped us figure out what we liked and wanted - along with Gary’s advice. We were able to go after work thanks to the evening opening hours and found it an overall great experience. We were really happy with our experience and our purchases and can’t wait to receive our new mattress! Would highly recommend. Thanks again Gary!

Disappointment after purchase.

When we first visited your store in Bury St Edmunds, we found a bed and mattress which suited us and were advised by the salesperson there that it would be about 4 weeks to arrive. When we came back to buy them, once we’d bought them we were told that it would take considerably longer before the bed would be available. My confirmation email stated that it would take 12-14 weeks before we could expect delivery. I was not impressed.

Really good experience when buying a…

Really good experience when buying a mattress recently - the salesman was exactly as we wanted him to be: available immediately to answer any questions and provide advice and offer a range of suitable mattresses - and then retreated to allow myself and my husband time to re-test, and discuss our preferences privately before making our purchase. Highly recommend.

Service with a smile

Being previous customers my wife and I returned for new pillows and were admirably served by Sigita. Nothing was too much trouble for her. She was so patient with us and ran the length of the shop and the storeroom to find us just what we needed - three different pillows to suit the individual needs and comfort of my wife and I. Thank you
