Before you buy a bed in the UK please view this consumer website:

I have had a very bad experience with Dreams as apparently have most people that buy there. Beware. They have a comfort guarantee, but if you don't write within the first few weeks after you buy it is null and void. Also, there is a 10 year warranty, but they will do everything in their power not to honor it. I waited forever to buy a new bed (my old one was over 20 years old)and decided to splurge and get a really comfortable top of the line bed. Unfortunately, my old bed was more comfortable than this boat anchor. I am stuck with it, though, unless I want a legal battle, because they say it is normal for a bed to have huge dips where you sleep so that you cannot even roll over. I turned the mattress just as they said to, but it is just a hunk of junk. I'm going to buy a new one when we get back to the States.

That's a shame about your bed. We bought our bed and mattress from Dreams 1.5years ago and we love our mattress. I hope we never have problems with it if they arent willing to sort it out. After a certain amount of years, we will get a new one though...since we want to get a King size ;)

We bought our bed from a shop in Thetford... its called cosy carpets. They gave us a good deal and its a memory foam mattress which is the best!

Got mine in Martins Furniture Shop in Mildenhall, why go further afield when there's one on the doorstep?

We got both our mattress and our couch from Martins and they were alot cheaper than anything we liked at the furniture store.
