Delivery was great no problems. We was a bit disappointed that the bed base material was not the same as the sides, and also the drawers are on the wrong side which means that they are against the wal... See more

The sales person Richard was excellent he identified what we wanted straight away and took us to the correct product.We were undecided between the one he showed us and one next door in Dreams.We came back to Bensons and Richard really helped to make our decision. Bensons seem to employ much better sales staff than Dreams!!

We're very sorry to hear that your mattress delivery has been delayed, especially since you've arranged for your old one to be collected. We know this is not ideal, and we'll look into this right away. Thanks for your feedback, Megan at Customer Care

Fantastic

We visited the store and was greeted by Odette.
Her customer service skills were excellent and made us feel welcomed into the store, offered all the help and advice we needed but without asking too many question or wanting to sell us something we didn’t want.
We felt free to look about without a sales person breathing down our necks or tracking our every move. It was a great experience and a lot of other stores (Dreams being one) could learn a thing or two from Odette.
Our shopping experience was so good we ended up buying two beds and will happily recommend anyone into your store!
Describe Odette in one word; Fantastic.

Helpful member of staff

Helpful member of staff. We had a rough idea what we wanted, after trying mattresses we realised what we thought we wanted wasn’t right for us. So were guided to the correct one.

Very pleased with the staff in the Gillingham store

Very pleased with the staff in the store. No hard sell just useful information when we needed it. We were allowed to wander and decide ourselves which mattress we thought we needed. Gently guided through the various attributes of each product. Altogether a pleasant experience.
The mattress was delivered during the time slot allocated and the two lads who struggled to get it upstairs and in position on the bed were most helpful and polite.

Richard made the experience great

Richard made the experience great. He was attentive but not overly so had good knowledge of the products and was very helpful with regards making the right choice for us and not just the most expensive choice. We never felt under pressure to buy anything and for all of the above reasons we decided this was the right place to buy our bed

We had a great experience

We had a great experience. Odette talked us through using the sleep experience to work out what our preferred mattress would be. She then took so much time to talk to us about our needs and how the different sorts of mattresses might help and this meant we could make an informed decision. Sale was well handled and we really felt like valued customers. Would definitely shop there again.

The staff were very helpful

The staff were very helpful. But the new Store quite frankly looks awful at the moment, and there is not a huge choice in Store. Thankfully they had what I was looking for. The mess from the previous Retailer should have been sorted by now.
