We have recently moved house and felt it was time to have an upgrade on our bed and mattress. We nipped in to Dreams to have a "browse" at what was available and saw this bed available. We had a go on the computerised mattress assessor and were told which type of mattress would suit us best. We then tried an example mattress and were told a price if we bought them together. This was done two weeks before Christmas but we were moving in on 18th Dec. I wanted to wait until the January sales, but my wife loved it that much that I asked if they would consider an early discount in line with what may come up. Sure enough the manager called head office and sorted us out for a discount and even managed to get the bed and mattress delivered 2 weeks early so we could have it in place for Christmas. They arrived and delivered the mattress and flat packed bed to the bedroom as promised on 19th Dec. I immediately assembled them bed which said should take around an hour. It took just 20mins to complete but that is not a negative indication as to how well the bed is manufactured. I was extremely impressed and I have to say is the best nights sleep I've ever had (that includes a number of 5* hotel beds). We couldn't be happier and would highly recommend this to anyone.

My Fiance and I purchased this bed as ours was growing old and tired, I was extremely happy when Dreams delivered it!! I chose to self build, the build itself took no more than 45 minutes, everything was packaged well and instructions were clear, supplied in the boxes are 2 allen type keys for the package A bolts and package B bolts, however you will find that you will need to have to hand a 10mm spanner or ratchet and socket, the centre legs have 10mm nuts and allen type bolts to fix the centre legs in place, Dreams do offer a service to build for you though. The bed quality out of the box was impressive, it's very sturdy and feels like it should cost A LOT more than it did, the material feels extremely luxurious, the stitching is true and not wavy like cheaper manufacturers, I opted for the sprung slat base which was pre made in structure to save having to put each sprung slat into place yourself, It's very comfortable and complements our bedroom perfectly, You will go a long way searching for a better bed at such a great price! Thank you dreams for selling the product at a very reasonable price and your service was Fantastic! Highly recommended product and company.

I am so happy with my beautiful bed and furniture! I am disabled so went with the motion sleep base as it will help me get more comfortable at night. The zero gravity function is a game changer for me, for the first time in so many years this seriously has helped with my pain at night - worth every single penny! The in store team in Stoke were so helpful, I have brain fog so have to go over the same points several times for it to actually sink in and they were so patient with me, no rushing and no hard selling, all of which I am very grateful for. The delivery went well, sent me a text telling me when it would be arriving, and this was stuck too. The drivers were very polite and tidy, taking away all packaging, and asked me where I would like everything going. The bed is a medical aid for me but you cant tell! Its beautiful and so pretty! Thank you Dreams for making me feel included and being able to have pretty things again!

As a sufferer of fibromyalgia and lower back pain, I decided to treat myself to an adjustable bed. I searched online, but so many look like hospital beds. Then I looked on the Dreams website and fell in love with the Ellis bed. Best decision I made - not only is it gorgeous to look at, but from the first day, I no longer wake up in pain and don't walk like a robot with no knee joints when I get out of bed! I have the head raised a little to help with heartburn, and the legs raised to help my back. I opted for the model with lumbar as well, but I don't use that much. The model also includes the head and foot massage, but that's more just a vibration, and it's quite noisy, so I don't use that. But just the release from pain ever morning is enough for me and worth every penny.

Bought the Ellis sleepmotion 200i from the Merthyr store late November with a delivery time of 12 weeks. It was actually delivered within 7 weeks so we were really happy with this. The bed is fantastic, most probably the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. The controls are simple to use and the bed action is virtually silent. Using the zero gravity setting gives a most relaxing position for us to sleep. The delivery guys were fantastic giving us a call before hand so we were ready for them We chose the highest legs for the bed which we definitely prefer but were given a choice. All packaging was taken away plus our old mattres so saved a trpto the local recycling site.

We had this delivered in October with the matching Ottoman. We chose grey. Delivery was perfect and two friendly gentlemen put all our items carefully in our bedroom. We chose the sprung slats and moving from an old, hard divan bed base, we have been delighted with this bed and immediately felt more support and our mattress which is only three months old, is more comfortable. We had a very bad experience with another major bed retailer earlier this year, so were quite worried about trying to purchase another bed, but we neednt have worried. The service from start to finish, even during these trying times has been superb.

I've not long brought this bed nearly 1 month. On first view when built massive, super king. Building the bed was a walk in the park, took 30 mins with unpacking. First night built and still iv had unbroken sleep. Plenty of room for myself, partner and pooch. We all still have plenty room without touching. Fabric I was worried about marking but this hasn't been the case, been put through test with pooches. Getting in and out of the bed is easy and the wooden boards have been held to test and passed. I have no faults with this bed except a wider choice of fabric colours. Happy sleeper.

I don't normally bother writing reviews but I felt this was worth it. I went for the Super king and Love it, after a long time looking for a bed in this style that isn't a couple of inches off the floor I found this and it is a full height base just like a divan, a stunning looking bed and very solid as well especially with the sprung slats (I would definitely recommend them over the standard pine slats), the material is very soft, the whole bed feels like real luxury, you wont regret it. :-) And a quick thanks to the lads that delivered it. Excellent.

Ive had this bed for a few months now, my dad helped me build it and between us it took about two hours. Most of which was carefully unboxing and unpacking. I upgraded to the sprung base and it feels sturdy and has no squeaks. Its very soft and tactile and makes a real statement in the room. I purchased a new mattress at the same time as the frame and the combination is very comfortable and has made a huge improvement to the quality of sleep Im getting. I purchased the bed in the sale so I have rated it excellent for value.

When i saw the pictures online I was a little nervous that the diamond studs might be a little tacky, we weren't able to see the exact shade in the shop as they only has the dark one in. However we took the plunge and it looks even better than we hoped, very classy, the scroll parts are very sturdy, the only thing i regret is not going for the sprung slats option. The only downside is that the storage box only comes in the dark grey material and not pearl which is a bit disappointing.

Questions and Answers About The Ellis Sleepmotion Adjustable Velvet-Finish Bed Frame

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

Image of the post author
Jake5170
What's the difference between solid slat or sprung slat ?

Answer: Sprung slats are stronger wood, have an extra strengthening bar in the middle and are upwardly curved. This means they're more durable. We recommend upgrading to sprung slats if this will be your main bed. Solid slats are the basic pine planks that hold your mattress up from the floor. You should see them if you look under your mattress.Thank you for your question.

Hi Im looking at the King size Ellis bed. I noticed the recess is 10cm but the mattress on your website Im looking at is 11cm, would this be suitable to the bed? The mattress of Johnstone pocket sprung mattress. Thanks

Answer: Good MorningThe gap between the top of the side rail and the top of the scroll footend is 26cm. The Johnstone mattress would be suitable it would just depend on your overall height preference of the frame and the mattress together.

when you order superking does it have two independent sides, so two single matteresses can be used?

Answer: When ordered in a superking, there will not be two independently moving sides - the unit will move as one. As a result, you would not be able to use two single mattresses, only one superking mattress should be used.

I really want this bed, can I have it with a lift side storage plz

Answer: Unfortunately we are unable to offer this bed with a side lift storage option. If you like the style of this bed, we would suggest you take a look at the Deacon Ottoman as this is similar.

Why are you advertising the matching furniture with the Pearl colour but are not actually making them available to purchase. I really want the the storage but it says only in grey.

Answer: Our buying team are working hard to develop new ranges of furniture to match the beds, in different styles and colourways so we'll ensure your feedback is communicated to the team.

What is the maximum depth mattress for use with this bed as have seen reviews on others that one that is too big will rise above the end of the bed.

Answer: We do not have any height limits or restrictions on the beds. If you do not want your mattress to rise above the end then the depth of your mattress will have to be around 26cm.We hope this helps you.
