No electric underblanket with Tempur
We have now taken delivery of our Tempur mattress. We were disappointed to discover from reading the instructions for caring for a Tempur mattress (which came with the mattress), that you should NOT use an electric under blanket. It would have been much better to learn this during the sales process, which would have influenced our purchase, never having owned a memory foam mattress previously. Additionally, we had decided to purchase a new electric under blanket prior to delivery, so this was a wasted £125! We then purchased an alternative electric over blanket at a further £125 but don’t like this due to its weight. So, if like us, your preference is an electric blanket for wintertime, do bear this in mind when buying your new mattress. I have written to the Chester Store and awaiting a response.

Amazing Dave
Dave was amazing at helping us choose a mattress for our son who suffers with back problems. Advice was spot on, and we had a good bit of banter too, including hints and tips on how to help stop hubby snoring! 🛌

shop sales manager very effective
shop sales manager very effective. Registering guarantee is impossible because "customer number" is apparently on a document sewn into the mattress which is now not reachable since the heavy mattress is made up on the bed. This essential information should have been indicated at the point of delivery.

Confidence in want you choose
When we first arrived we weee given space to look around at our leisure. Once we had a few options David was very helpful and understanding of our needs and when we returned to place the order Steve checked every detail and made sure we were happy with our choice.

Unbelievably poor service
Unbelievably poor customer service. Automated email to say bed frame delayed by 18 days- not even a call from the store. Elderly guest coming to stay and nothing to sleep on. Bensons then cancelled the mattress delivery without even asking me. Had to contact the store 3 times to get a response. They promised to call back but didn’t. Customer services offered nothing, not even a reduced price as a goodwill gesture. Only able to offer a blow up mattress (!) if the order is cancelled the day before promised delivery date. Waste of time calling them. Appalling. The sales team is super friendly when it’s time to buy and get your money off you but useless if there is a problem. Communication about the rescheduled delivery also poor. First and last time I use Bensons.
