Absolutely amazing. I was served by the store manager and came in just before closing. He didn’t make me feel uncomfortable or that I was keeping him behind. Huge Thankyou.

Bensons Colchester
Went into Bensons for Beds in Colchester dealt with Paul, good lad, what I liked was there was no pressure, nothing more annoying than salesmen hassling you, but we asked Paul lots of questions, and he redirected us and knew all the products which was great, we had an idea of "good makes" of bed, but we wanted to see which way Paul directed, and he was neutral and honest all the way through all good and the after service at the moment with texts, and emails is really good - so far so good although not got the bed yet, now I need to decorate the bedroom ! ha ha

Great service, very pleased with our new bed.
We needed a new bed to replace our old one which was almost 30 years old. The salesman who sold us the bed was very helpful, there were many beds to try in the shop. We chose the mattress which was most comfortable and them decided to add a new base and headboard.
On delivery day everything went as planned, our old bed was removed and taken away and the new one delivered and set up as planned. The delivery people were pleasent, turned up in good time and did a good job negotiating the twist and turns of our stairs.I can't fault our experience in any way.

Excellent service from Paul in the show room to good communication with a delivery slot being advised a few days before delivery. The delivery men called 10 mins before delivery to advise that they were on their way. Old mattress removed and new one delivered without any problems.
