Where you place an order via our Internet shop and are not acting as a consumer these terms and conditions may vary in certain respects. Where there is such a variation this is indicated in these terms and conditions.

1.3 You should read these terms and conditions carefully before submitting an order to us. These terms tell you how we will provide the product(s), how you or us may change or end the contract and what to do if there is a problem with your order, and other important information.



2. How the contract is formed

2.1 Our offer of goods on the Internet constitutes an invitation to treat (an advertisement) this means it is not a binding offer to sell. You may submit your offer to buy via our order system integrated into our online shop.

2.2 When purchasing goods via the online shop, the goods you intend to purchase are placed in the virtual “shopping cart”. You can view and access your virtual “shopping cart” at any time and on each page of the website and can make changes to your existing “shopping cart.” Once you have decided to purchase the product(s) in your shopping cart you can enter your personal details, select the method of payment and select the shipping conditions. Prior to purchase, you are afforded the opportunity to check, change, or cancel the purchase in its entirety. By clicking the “Buy now” button you will have offered to buy the product(s) from us.

2.3 You may return to the Internet site before placing your order by clicking on the “back” button found in the Internet browser, after checking your information and/or close the internet browser to cancel the order process.

2.4 Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept your order. At this point, a contract will come into existence between you and us.

2.5 If we are unable to accept your offer, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product(s). We may not be able to accept your order because the product(s) is out of stock, because of unexpected limits in our resources which could not be reasonably planned for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product(s), or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline which you have specified. If you would like to place a larger order as a company, please check the availability beforehand.

2.6 It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the product(s) we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product(s)’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product(s)’s correct price at your date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognized by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.



3. Prices and shipping costs

3.1 Prices include VAT (if applicable). The prices stated on the order page when you placed your order are the final prices. They include all price components including all applicable taxes. Only in the case of cross-border delivery can additional taxes and/or duties (e.g. duties) be required by the buyer for payment, to the responsible customs and tax authorities.

3.2 You bear no responsibility for the shipping costs.



4. Delivery

4.1 We will deliver the product(s) to you within 30 days after the day on which we accept your order.

4.2 We are not responsible for delays outside of our control. If the supply of the product(s) is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know. We will take steps to minimize the effect of the delay. Provided we do this, we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any product(s)s you have paid for but not received.

4.3 In the case of the non-availability of goods a possible advance payment will be refunded without delay.

4.4 The product(s) will be your responsibility from the time we deliver the product(s) to the delivery address provided to us.

4.6 If you do not collect the product(s) from us as arranged, or if, after failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect the product(s) from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you to re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the contract and claim for any loss caused by your refusal to take delivery. If you are in default of acceptance, we reserve the right to sell the goods to a third party or to hold you liable for any loss.

4.7 If you would like to order in our webshop, it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract that you provide your personal data, which we need to process your order and fulfill the contract of sale with you. The essential data for the conclusion of the contract is marked, further data is given on a voluntary basis. We use the personal data provided by you to process your order and returns. For charging purposes, we can pass on your payment data to our house bank or to the selected payment service provider. To manage the delivery of the goods to you, and due to the nature of the transaction, we will need to share your delivery address and contact details (email and phone number) with delivery companies. Only strictly necessary data will be shared for the purpose of coordination of delivery, protection against fraud and clarification of urgent issues. The legal basis for this is that this processing is objectively necessary for the performance of the contract of sale with you (Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR). This means that the sale of goods cannot, as a matter of fact, be fully performed if this specific processing of the personal data in question does not occur. Please note that failure to provide the mandatory personal data can lead to that that your order with us cannot be carried out. If you want to do a product return, we will also need to share your personal data (delivery address and contact details) to the assigned non-governmental/charitable organization or delivery company for the pick-up and collection of the product. The legal basis is that the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party (Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR) and our legitimate interest in managing product returns.

If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.

19.2.a Any types of spring malfunction with our Hybrid mattress or any shifting of the spring layer.

19.2.b Any permanent sags or dips that occur within your mattress despite correct usage. The indentation should be greater than 2.5cm and visible to the naked eye. This does not include standard softening of the mattress after extensive use and is only deemed faulty if a permanent indent is apparent.

19.2.c Any cracks or hollows in the foam of your mattress. These need to be reported within the first 6 months of receiving your mattress to be identified as a manufacturing fault and the onus of checking the product is with the purchaser. After this point, we are not be able to identify if this was a production error or created through improper use, which will invalidate the 10-year guarantee for this type of damage.

19.2.d The mattress not inflating to the correct size once removed from its vacuum packaging. We work to the industry standard of a leeway of 2cm across the length, width and depth of the mattress. If the mattress has had a reasonable time to inflate (two weeks) and is not within these dimensions you will be entitled to an exchange of the mattress.

19.2.e Cover damage, including damaged zip or faulty stitching resulting from improper manufacturing. If just the cover is damaged, we reserve the right to send a brand-new replacement cover, rather than exchanging the mattress core which remains undamaged. The guarantee does not extend to general wear and tear of the cover over its period of use.

19.3 If your mattress develops any of the faults outlined above within its 10-year guarantee, we require photographic evidence depicting the fault in question. This needs to be sent to our customer service department who will be able to assist in how the fault can be demonstrated through photographic evidence. If there is not sufficient proof that any of the criteria above has been met, we will not be able to offer an exchange of the mattress in question.

19.4 In the event of the mattress being proved as defective, a replacement mattress will be shipped to you in accordance with our current delivery time frames. The replacement mattress will be the same mattress model as originally purchased, and it cannot be upgraded to a different model. The faulty mattress will also be collected from you free of charge.

19.5 The replacement of the faulty mattress does not reset your guarantee period and the 10-year guarantee will cover from the original purchase date. For example, if the mattress should develop a fault after 5 years of use, the new mattress will be covered for the remaining 5 years of your 10-year guarantee.

19.6 Should the mattress develop a fault within the guarantee, we will exchange the mattress and a refund will not be possible. However, should you go through this process 3 times, with two exchanged mattresses also developing faults within the 10-year period, you will then be entitled to a full refund of the purchase price upon its collection.

19.7 The refurbished mattresses (purchased through Wowcher) are covered by a 6-month guarantee, from the date of delivery, with the other terms of the warranty reflecting that of a new mattress.

19.8 Any mattress purchased through an approved seller (DFS, Carpetright, John Lewis) will be valid under our 10-year guarantee with the same stipulations as above.

If you have purchased the mattress through an unofficial source, we would not be able to assist with any concerns regarding the warranty and recommend that you contact the seller for further assistance. Our mattresses are officially sold through our own website domain, DFS, Carpetright, John Lewis and Wowcher.

19.10 We will need your order details in order to check the legitimacy of the order and process the exchange accordingly. Failure to provide any relevant details, combined with the failure to locate the order on our system, will result in the assumption that this was brought from an unverified third party and as such we are not responsible for the exchange of the item.

  • Normal wear and tear or any condition resulting from misuse or abuse of the product.
  • Standard softening of the mattress foam resulting from regular use.
