Very helpful staff guided us through the buying process - looking for two beds, both with storage and one with an adjustable base. Dreams were able to satisfy our needs, and at very competitive prices... See more

Great store

All staff very helpful and didn’t make us feel pushed for a sale like some other companies do. Would definitely recommend to family and friends and would use again.

Great service great product very efficient

The sales person greeted us in a very friendly and polite manner and even offered us all (2 adults 2 children) a drink. He took his time to listen to what we wanted and after he asked us several questions regarding height, weight and sleeping position he had a very clear idea of which mattresses to show us and for us to try (he even gave us both a comfy pillow whilst trying them). We are very happy with the one we chose and also the ottoman bed that he helped us pick out moments before. All in all he was very helpful and knowledgeable during the whole process. We now cannot wait for it to arrive.

Judy & Roshan a credit to Nottingham Dreams

Visited store and was attended by Judy who took me through the selection process but I couldn’t decide what to buy. I am disabled and was worried about spending a chunk of change on a mattress which wasn’t comfortable. Judy was really helpful and didn’t look disappointed at the lack of a sale.
I returned three months later specifically because she was so helpful, met Roshan and he passed me to Judy despite probably missing out on commission.
Bought base, mattress, pillow etc and am really looking forward to delivery in five days.
Excellent service, brilliant staff, Judy and Roshan are a credit to Dreams and should go far (Nottingham store)

Don’t accept the first mattress suggested

Excellent service. An assistant approached us as soon as we arrived and was very attentive in helping finding the perfect mattress. The normal few mattresses were ridiculously expensive and we nearly walked away at that point but once we explained that we wanted a more reasonably priced one a good match was found. Still £1000! Delivery and collection of our old mattress was excellent. Only had to wait 3 days. Delivery men were extremely polite and helpful. I do feel that with a £1000 mattress removal of your old one should be included in the price. Most importantly new mattress is super comfy

An 08.15 am, delivery.

An 08.00 am call to be told of delivery time; a delightful surprise to be told of an early morning delivery.
Prompt arrival. Told where bedroom was, so guys put on over-shoes, and took mattress up stairs. A small house so I waited outside in the garden, as no masks being worn other than mine. Quick re-appearance with old wrapped mattress, Told to give two hours before making up the bed as item sprayed, and requiring time for it to wear off, once unwrapped.
They closed the gate I had opened to allow their entry, and they left with thanks.

Exceptional service start to finish.

Exceptional service from both the derby and the Nottingham stores. John was our point of contact at Nottingham (Lenton lane). Very helpful and so where all the staff involved start to finish. They have detailed product knowledge and it shows. The service was exceptional right down to the last delivery driver leaving!

Friendly staff

Friendly staff, great way of narrowing down the right mattress. And a much better selection than the "bed in a box" competitors!!

DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY

Having happily taken £3158 off me for a new mattress, bed, and pillows - 18 months later they have absolutely no interest in helping with an issue, even after the technician they sent out made an official report of, and I quote "THE LAY TEST SHOWED THE
MATTRESS IS NOT SUPPORTIVE." as per their official document.

We purchased a Tempur cloud mattress with an Ottoman based, Tempur pillows and mattress protector in August 2020. 18 months later I can no longer sleep on the mattress without causing myself significant back problems, the mattress has lost all support right in the centre where my lower back sits. It's that bad I currently have to sleep with a pillow under my bum to stop me from sinking into the bed. (I am 13st if it matters)

I called dreams customer service to explain the issue who then sent a technician out to inspect the bed. The report came back stating that the bed had sunk on the dip test 10mm which was within the 20mm tolerance, however, the "lay test" showed that the mattress wasn't offering support. I had assumed this would result in some action being taken, I was wrong. I ended up recording the phone call to customer services because I couldn't believe what I was hearing, some lady just stuttering and making up excuses and again I quote, "Although it isn't supportive we need to understand if it's within tolerance". So by Dreams' own definition, a mattress doesn't have to offer support, it just needs to be within tolerance - which is subjective. I was also informed by the same lady that the technician had "clicked the wrong button" on the report and the mattress was fine, she assured me this was the case until I pointed out that the technician had typed this report with free text, not ticked a button - she was just outright lying.

I disputed that the mattress was acceptable and they sent a second technician out, who also confirmed that the dip test was within tolerance but now explained to me that a lay test is pointless on a memory foam mattress as it's subjective. He couldn't tell me what he was even testing for - it was total nonsense. He just advised that next time I buy a firm mattress.

I am now left with a £2200 mattress that isn't fit for purpose, my £200 10-year-old Ikea mattress is infinitely more comfortable. I sincerely hope that no one else falls for this sales b******* and just buys a cheap mattress because 18 months down the line, the mattress you thought you were getting for the next 10 years will not be what you end up with.

I was also promised a call back from the manager, which was over a week ago, and I have not heard anything.

Please, avoid this company.

UPDATE - The next steps were to tell me that Dreams aren't going to do anything about the issue. Although a technician they sent wrote on the report that the mattress isn't supportive, this alone isn't enough to prove a fault.

Emma informed me that "A lay test on its own wouldn’t prove a fault with a mattress." so you have to ask yourself, what is the point of a lay test? You tell me. Absolute waste of my time and 2 days spent at home waiting for technicians to arrive.

As before, please, whatever you do, avoid this company.

Dear Mr Lindley

Thank you for taking the time to speak with me today. I am sorry again for the inconvenience this matter has caused you.

As discussed, we will review this matter with Tempur, and will be back in contact next week to discuss next steps.

Many thanks
