I am usually scared to enter bed shops…

I am usually scared to enter bed shops because of the hard sell and being pounced on, but i nervously entered the Ashford branch and had a completely different experience. Wendy was polite and welcoming but didnt put any pressure on me. She allowed me to look round and browse but when i asked for help and advice she was amazing and knowledgeable. Despite my kids constant changes of mind she was patient and helpful. The payment part was easy. The only negative would be that the £69 delivery charge was not very upfront. I didnt see any signage about this and only a delivery chage was mentioned, not how expensive it was. I would expect a delivery charge of £25-30 for something like this. Better still, i would be happy to collect from store to reduce this cost.
Overall, a very good experience despite my anxiety around bed shopping caused by previous experiences.

We were not hounded by salesman at all

We were not hounded by salesman at all. Tom asked if we needed help and then left us to wander round the store where he caught up with us. Asked if we needed further help. Put us on the sleep machine to help guide us to the correct mattress. Gave us a quote after us finding the perfect bed and mattress. And was never pushy at all. Which is why we will be back to buy the bed and mattress. He gave us time.

Ashford team - 1st class service all round!

Right from the off, my experience of Bensons For Beds has been outstanding! John in the Ashford branch was so helpful. I'd been looking for a bed for my daughter for months but whilst purchasing a sofa bed I saw the perfect bed for her room. Ended up buying both! Delivery team were brilliant also, really friendly and efficient. They even took the heavy boxes upstairs to the spare room (I would never have managed those on my own!).

Well done Bensons! Your Ashford team are hands down the best and I won't go anywhere else in future!

Akram The sales man was not pushy in any way he let us know he was there if we needed help and left us to browse.
He was polite and extremely helpfull.
The reason we purchased from Bensons Coventry was due to product price them being so helpful and no aggressive selling.

Very good customer service

Very good customer service in store. He didn't try to sell me the most expensive mattress but listened to my needs and showed me what I asked for. Delivery was prompt within the 2 hour slot and was easy to track. I was given a call 45 minutes before arrival.

Excellent customer experience

My experience purchasing this mattress from bensons from start to finish was faultless throughout. The team in store delivered a great customer experience, knowledgeable, happy to listen, help and advise my son with choosing a mattress that suited his needs and showed great skill at engaging with him and providing options (not always easy with a 16 y/o who already knows everything anyway…). Great communications after purchase from delivery team and delivered with ease. Very happy that we chose Bensons.
