Therapur

Therapur mattresses have been around for a number of years now as a staple of the Dreams retailers core lineup.

Harrison-Spinks

Harrison Spinks is a generational family business that has captured the spirit of the entire hand-made portion of the industry thanks to their traditional materials and handcrafting excellence. The range is of a much higher quality than many competing brands and as a result the price point is typically found within the higher-end but the result is a bespoke nights sleep that will ooze excellence.

Feedback initially looks like the standard lead time has returned across much of the lineup with the majority of the range made-to-order and on 6 week delivery schedules.

Therapur Owner Satisfaction

You’ll be in good hands with Therapur, having over 12,000 positive reviews to date and with many more flowing in each day, it’s easy to see that many customers appreciate the quality and cost make-up of these mattresses. Customers particularly enjoy the gel comfort layer, something you don’t often get elsewhere. This gel layer keeps you cool while you sleep and is an ideal barrier that sits between the springs and your body to give you a refreshing and soft nights sleep that is suitable all-season long.

Unlike memory foam varieties, there are no substantive reports of people waking up through heat build up and night-sweats although there have been some complaints around getting the right tension. Fortunately the Therapur umbrella of products all come with a 40-night sleep guarantee which ensures customer satisfaction or replacement for a more suitable model.

Therapur Durability

Durability remains impressive for the Therapur line up, however, we were disappointed with the 1 year guarantee often quoted on many of the mattresses, particularly given the non-budget price tag associated with the products. That said, many settlement and durability issues that do crop up with all mattresses are often due to a manufacturing defect which will typically appear within that first year of ownership. As such, the one year guarantee, while not ideal, doesn’t seem to be causing anyone to be “caught out”.

Beyond the guarantee, durability itself seems to be good provided manufacturer care instructions are adhered to in the form of frequent rotation to ensure adequate and even settlement of fillings and springs. Failure to comply with the rotation guidelines for Therapur products can result in uneven settlement which is best avoided.

Generally, Therapur mattresses are hard wearing and durable with the combination of good quality pocket springs, hard wearing cover and gel comfort layer pairing fantastically to offer ultimate comfort that lasts.

Harrison-Spinks Owner Satisfaction

Customers have had universally favourable experiences with this brand which is quite impressive given the price point. Typically we find that when the price of mattresses starts to lead toward the high-end, customers' expectations can sometimes be distorted which results in a less-favourable experience. Thankfully that is not the case with many happy with the quality of the materials, in particular the wool top layer that often features and is both soft and luxurious, complementing the pocket spring base layer nicely.

Harrison-Spinks Supportiveness

The support materials utilised in all Harrison Spinks products is a reliable pocket spring base layer. Pocket springs continue to be the best option for support, offering measured and reliable body contouring across the entire mattress and featuring edge to edge even support and roll together prevention.

Firmness within the range varies but has a pivot toward medium and medium firm tension mattresses all of which are made from luxurious materials and hand made in the UK. Interestingly, Harrison Spinks is the partner of choice for many of the sub-brands sold throughout the popular retailer. The result of this is a Flaxby & Feather and Black sub-division of quality mattresses that will be of equal interest to those looking for a good quality and highly rewarding nights sleep.

Harrison-Spinks Durability

I think the most important stat when it comes to durability is around the warranty and guarantee periods. After all, if the manufacturer doesn’t believe in their product, why would you? Thankfully you get a 5 year guarantee at minimum across the majority of products on show which comes fairly close to the average replacement period of 7 years for the industry as a whole.

Durability generally doesn’t look to be a concern as both the reviews and compounds used suggest positive experiences with longevity.

I would not give this mattress any stars but the option is not given, we selected this mattress after using the sleep match machine which in Dreams own words (It's a super smart bit of wizardry that chooses the right mattress just for you and the way you sleep. ) this is the most uncomfortable hardest mattress I have ever had I explained to the sales advisor that I suffer with neck and spine problems and could not sleep on a hard mattress she said that the machine recommended a medium mattress we stupidly put our trust in this marvellous machines hands the sales advisor showed us various mattresses from the list that the machine had recommended we chose this mattress and was assured not to worry as we had the 40 days returns policy at no point was it explained that we would have to sleep on the mattress for 30 nights before it could be returned and loose the difference in money if you chose a cheaper mattress. Two days after receiving the new mattress we returned to the store saying I cannot sleep as the mattress is so hard my pressure points are numb and I have pins and needles we were told that the problem is out of there hands and I would need to contact customer services after finally getting through to customer services I was told that they would prefer us to sleep on the mattress for 30 nights to enable the springs to settle down I said when I tried the mattress in the store nobody told us to expect such a difference between the stores mattress and the one we would receive also on our second visit to the store my husband noticed that we had in fact been sold a firm mattress as I am so upset with the service we have received I asked for my money to be refunded I was told this would not happen I would need to choose another mattress and either pay the difference if it was more expensive or loose the money if it was cheaper and also pay for the delivery Please ensure when buying a mattress from Dreams you read all of the small print that you are given once you have made your purchase and also read the reviews on the website as you will see other people have had the same experience as myself, do use the Sleep Match machine as another sales advisor on our second visit to the store said how can a machine tell you what mattress you need I have been selling mattresses for years and do not go by what the machine says.

Amazing mattress that i didn't realise how much i needed! I had been having a bad back with our old mattress for several months but as it was only 4 years old i put off getting a new one. The back pain got to much so i figured that not only did i have to bite the bullet but i also needed to get it right this time, hence going to Dreams. We were helped by a very professional and friendly gentleman who showed us the Dreams mattress technology which helped us pick a mattress that i would have never though of myself, as I've always chosen a hard mattress. The gentleman explained how the mattress should be supporting my back and gave us plenty of possible mattresses to try out. Not only did we pick a mattress but we also picked pillows which to my surprise has been the best pillow i have ever had, I'm very fussy when it comes to pillows and in the past i have found that not only does it take me weeks to adapt to a new one but it also will only last me a few months as they don't support my neck properly or become lumpy and my poor husband ends up inheriting it! Since receiving my wonderful Dreams mattress and pillow i have slept better than a baby, i cant wait to go to bed and hate having to get up! Also im happy to report no more bad back!!

An absolute game changer!!! So glad I invested in this mattress topper. I didn't want it for its cooling effect. I wanted to improve my sleeping comfort and be sure I was supporting all the main pressure points when I sleep.. iv been having problems with nerve pain down my left leg and I'm a back sleeper so found in a morning before I got my topper my back was particularly bad when I first got up..In less than a week of having this topper on my mattress I am "Pain free!!" Its like a miracle...its because it's totally contouring my lower back and supporting it...I would 100% recommend this Topper. Plus The salesman at the Chesterfield branch was AMAZING...So helpful I tried before I bought I had all the different options of toppers explained to me and so realised this was absolute the one for me. No pressure sales I was very happy indeed with the customer service of Drew a real knowledgeable salesman. Thank you. ??

We purchased a king size divan base and attachable headboard in store and, in summary, the store experience, the product, and the delivery process and all of the related pre delivery information have been excellent ... with just one niggle resulting in a less than 5 star review. This relates to the matching attachable headboard which also looks great and is excellent quality like the divan Ottoman base. That said, despite the delivery guys, who assembled everything, chocking the headboard as far from base as they could, the headboard still sits over the top of the base by about an inch. This results in the king sized mattress (that should fit perfectly) being pushed an inch down the base and hence results in the mattress overhanging the bottom of the divan base by just over an inch. It's not end of the world stuff but seems a pretty basic design flaw and, in our mind, results in the made up bed looking just that bit odd due to this small overhang.

We had an excellent experience at Dreams Slough from the moment we walked in. We were warmly welcomed, and Daljit took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, including our comfort preferences and affordability. She guided us through the different options with patience and expertise, giving us time to think without ever being pushy. Her knowledge and attentiveness made the whole process simple and stress-free. Meanwhile, Jack kindly entertained our children, which allowed us to focus on choosing the right mattress. The team even offered us a drink while we waited which added a thoughtful and welcoming touch to the visit. Thanks to Daljit’s professionalism and Jack’s support, what could have been a challenging shopping trip turned into a smooth and enjoyable experience. Outstanding service all round. I would highly recommend Dreams to anyone looking for a new mattress!

We'd had a Tempur Cloud for over a decade and loved it. The only reason for even considering a new mattress was our move to a new home and wanting to upgrade to a Super King bed. So we purchased the frame and nearly ordered a Tempur simply off our existing experience - but at the last moment decided to go and see if things had progressed in the time we've owned our current setup. Lowe and behold, as soon as we lay on this mattress we knew we had to have it. Its now been with us for nearly a month and it is scary just how accustom to this level of comfort I've become. Good sleep is the kind of thing you don't think about too much until you don't have it. This mattress has me forgetting about uncomfortable tossing and turning, pressure points and general discomfort. You feel your body melt as soon as you lay on it and at no point does that feeling change until you get up again. Suffice to say, we love it.

Just purchased my first Harrison Spinks mattress and it's wonderful. I was looking to purchase another Vispring in store but I needed a no bounce mattress and this is perfect. At super king size it's huge but the delivery guys managed to get it up the stairwell, just!! The mattress is deep, beautifully made and very comfortable. I bought it with the removable topper to offer a choice in comfort and so far the mattress on it's own is just right. If you are looking for a good well supported sleep on a pocket sprung mattress this is an excellent choice and I would highly recommend Harrison Spinks for quality and workmanship.

5 Matthew

Amazing mattress. Extremely comfortable and supportive. Also keeps you cool too, so easier to maintain temperature for comfort remaining all night long. The only negative is the smell… it was explained throughout the sales process how Harrison Spinks mattresses are hand made on the farm the materials are sourced from and the smell would go after airing, but it does last quite a number of weeks, despite it being left in a ventilated room unused for a week beforehand. The whole Furniture Village experience was great, from entering store to delivery. Cannot fault it.

5 Verified Buyer

Quality is obvious. If we hadn??t had a tempur for over ten years, I would say this is a really comfy bed and would be happy for its life time use. Albeit, only five years gauranteed!Having had a tempur though, I would probably revert back.Mainly due to spouse requiring that extra softness and a complete awareness removal from any turn/roll movement by partner. While this is a fantastic make and constructed with the Best Materials, we have been served well with the tempur and too be honest, can say, there aren??t any regrets with the purchase.

I had my old mattress for years so I thought I would treat myself to a new but better one and came across this company who have a large range of mattresses so I wanted one with lots of springs and better support than my old one so I choose this one ,it's thicker than my old one but gives me that support I was after and it also has handles on both sides so will be easier to move when needed ,a good purchase.
