Slumberland vs Flaxby Mattresses

Before purchasing this Benson's mattress (bensonsforbeds.co.uk), I discovered that the firmness of a mattress should be determined by a person's weight and sleeping position. There are many guides on the internet about this, such as sleepfoundation/best-mattress/mattress-firmness I am approx. 168 lbs in weight and a side sleeper, so I was very confident a good quality mattress which was medium firmness would be the best firmness for me. I am not disappointed with the Slumberland Natural Solutions 2000 medium firmness mattress. It is very comfortable although it feels much harder than my old mattress which was 17 years old and completely worn out. I chose the Natural Solutions 2000 mattress as it has natural fillings which are more breathable than foam layer mattresses. These natural fillings allow body heat to dissipate more efficiently than foam layered mattresses. This was very important to me as I live in a very well insulated building in a 1st floor flat, which also receives a lot of direct sunlight through the windows throughout the day and I tend to be a slightly 'hot' sleeper. I have not felt too warm in bed during August 2023 with my new Naturals mattress. The Slumberland Natural Solutions 2000 is also very good value for money when compared with other similar mattresses on the internet. The outer material feels high quality and so do the pocket springs when lying on them. It has 2000 pocket springs which helps isolate any movement a sleeping partner might make which helps to aid a good night's sleep, especially if someone sleeps with a 'restless' sleeper. Kyle was the friendly and helpful salesperson who I saw at Benson's showroom in Yeovil. I recommend the Slumberland Natural Solutions 2000 Medium Firmness mattress and Benson's showroom in Yeovil :)

It's lovely, I didn't realise how much the old one had deteriorated! A bit firmer than in the shop but the nice chap did make that clear before I bought it. It's settled down a bit now and my back has been so much better after just 2 weeks on it. It's cooler than the memory foam one which is what I wanted anyway. It doesn't move much with both sides being used at the same time. It's pretty deep so take note of that as it's quite high off the floor on a divan base, but I was used to a lower wooden frame anyway. You might need some deeper fitted sheets to cover it completely although it's a lovely looking mattress in it's own right. I'd say that the medium one would be a good fit for most folk, but this form one is perfect for me with just mild back pain during the day, but gone in the morning. Don't hesitate, it's worth every penny! After sales messages very informative too, delivery spot on and really nice couple of blokes.

Well, for the time being, we're reserving our total judgement. We think we're getting used to it but have a few 'not sure' thoughts: 1. It's a deeper mattress than our previous one which was an earlier version of this mattress which we'd been happy with but was 11 years old. For someone of 5'1" it's almost impossible to perch on the edge - which isn't as firm as our previous one very soft around the edge. 2. After only two or three days' sleep, there are obvious dips in the top of the mattress where our lower backs and bottoms lie. This surprised us. These dips don't disappear as the mattress settles. Is this normal? When we ordered this mattress, the advisor explained the benefits of the improved memory-foam layer perhaps I need to call him and ask about it. We chose the 'firmer' version of the mattress and we're hoping it was a good choice. Hopefully we will soon feel it was a good choice.

I'm loving my new mattress so far. When I'm laid down it's really comfy. Soft to lay on and aligns with your body posture. When I sit up, it seems to sink down a bit though. It is also much deeper then I anticipated. I will need to buy some deeper fitted sheets. But that was my error as the measurements were clearly stated. My divan base is already deep and now topped with the mattress, I have to jump slightly to sit on the bed! Then my feet are dangling about 6" from the floor. I'm 5' 6" but have short legs! I've never paid as much for a mattress, but if the firmness and comfy top layer last a few years, I will be very pleased I did, and will remain very satisfied with my new mattress. Footnote: The initial Review box on the link would not let me write in it so I did the star rating and pressed Submit, then the error of not writing the Review came up and this time it let me type.

I went into my local Bensons not reallly knowing what mattress I needed to replace my old one. The assistant in the store did not rush me while I tried a variety of mattresses some of them 2 or 3 times before deciding on the one for me. The transaction was quick and almost immediately I received updates on my phone for delivery dates and insurance cover. The mattress was delivered precisely at the time allocated and the delivery team were happy to carry the mattress up my narrow lane to my house. They put the new mattress in its new place and retrieved the old mattress to take away with them. Along with the mattress came full instructions for best methods of looking after it. I would throughly recommend Bensons for bed or mattress purchases. They have a clever instrument for finding the best bed type to suit your requirements although it was not necessary for my purchase.

I did a lot of research to find the right mattress. After a lengthy period hunting, I came across this model within the Flaxby range. It has everything that my partner and I were looking for. We had put up with our previous mattress for far too long so we decided to make an investment. We have not been disappointment at all. Considering that this only comes in either a medium/firm or firm, I was surprised at just how comfortable the medium/firm actually is. We sink into it. The pillow top does help. We've only had the mattress a few nights and know that we are getting the best sleep ever as it is a world famous Harrison Spinks. The mattress is a lot taller than our old one, and I was worried that the sheets wouldn't fit as a result and we would have to by king size sheets, but everything fits perfectly. Oh, aches and pains in my neck have vanished. Suffering with pains when you wake up, then do yourself a favour and get a Flaxby. You will not be disappointed. Hand made is BEST made.

Amazing!! We bought the king size, solid slat bed with a smart 43” LG TV. We assembled the bed ourselves which wasn’t too hard as we were given the instructions on purchase to study before it arrived. It arrived within 6 weeks and the delivery men were so friendly they took everything up to our bedroom for us! The frame itself is very sturdy, barely even wobbles (during activities) we probably could have gone for a better mattress but the one we chose suited budget. The tv takes about 20 seconds to go up and down, comes with a remote to go up and down the remote is even a torch as well! Even the headboard is cosy to sit up and lean against with or without pillows. My only wobble with it is I would have liked the frame to be a bit higher. All in all the best purchase we’ve ever made!

The service from the Dreams store in Berryden was great, with sound advice given and all questions answered. I was kept informed about the scheduled delivery and was provided with a 2 hour time slot the day before, which was confirmed with a telephone call from the drivers on the day. They were courteous and ensured that the mattresses were in place and as expected, removing my old ones, and taking all the packaging away too. My only issue, was that the cost of removing and disposing of my old mattresses had risen significantly, taking advantage of the difficulty accessing uplifts by the council. I would definitely buy from Dreams again and have recommended them to friends and family.

I made the purchase of this ottoman storage double divan with aquatic mattress and headboard entirely over the telephone. The sales rep at the Grimsby store was so helpful - I knew I wanted a velvet finish to the bed and he was able to assist me with various pricings, options and colourways. When the bed was delivered, the two gentlemen who assembled it were efficient and friendly and took the time to show me how to access the storage - where to hold when lifting and closing (two separate techniques). I am very happy to recommend Dreams for quality, value and service, from showroom to delivery.

After spending a lot on a previous memory foam mattress that was terrible we had to bite the bullet and go back to a spring mattress - initially this mattress was a shock as it felt so firm. I bought a mattress topper (grudginly)to give it a little softness - its now 3/4 weeks in and im much more used to it. Dreams in york sales service was excellent. The communication about delivery was excellent and the delivery lads were excellent, well mannered and even took their shoes off and i never asked them too. The mattress quality is excellent - i maybe should have got a softer setting
