    I've found details form Dreamworld in both Essex and Grimsby. Do you know which one it is?

    Also do you have a link?

    Having posted on here before regards my memory foam mattress. I loved it at first, then hated it because I realised it was this that was keeping me awake at night ( I even thought I was having hot flushes). I am now, after much research and shopping around, sleeping peacefully and comfortably on my new Rest Assured rossini 1000 pocket spring and latex mattress. I bought it from a local shop after they beat the lowest internet price I could find. Kingsize £360 delivered. I love it, it's like sleeping on a cloud, now I have trouble getting out of it in the mornings.

    Rest Assured are part of the Silentnight group. Do a search in these forums for them.

    Could anyone tell me my rights. I bought a mattress just before Christmas off the internet. From the moment we unpacked it the house filled up with a chemical smell (we have a large 3 bed terrace), every room being affected. My wife had to sleep that night in the attic. I put up with it albeit having a strange nights sleep and was quite intoxicated the next day suffering dizzy lapses which is totally unusual for me.

    We instantly got in touch with the owner who assured us that the smell was usual with new mattresses, caused by fire retardant used in their construction. I was advised to let it stand for a couple of days to let the smell dissipate and ring back if there was no change. A week later there was no change, the mattress still smelt to high heaven. We got back in touch with the owner of the firm daily after that, each time he informed us a further reason for putting up with the smell and that it would eventually go. Meanwhile my pregnant wife was being constantly affected by the sickly smell making her feel continuously nauseous. At that stage we asked for the mattress to be taken back. The owner still persisted that this could be overcome and that all mattresses had by law to be treated with fire retardant and would have this problem. I thought that this was a strange fact to be quoting from someone who specialises in the sale of mattresses as he did not even know that it was possible to get high quality mattresses (even organic ones) from a large number of small manufacturers (I had now been doing some research) that did not contain any fire retardant and still conformed to the bs kite marks.

    By now I should have known I was dealing with a sub standard Internet seller but I still perservered with him. Our mattress was collected in the new year and even at this time the collection men could still smell the odour (4 weeks after delivery). I was promised a refund as soon as the mattress was returned. This obviously did not arrive.
    By late Jan I contacted the firm who assured me the cheque would be in the post. Two weeks later having not recieved the cheque I contacted the owner who assured me it had been sent. He said he would put another in the post. Another two weeks passed and the cheque did not appear. (I still was being pretty patient). I got in touch again and the owner assured me it would be in the post that afternoon.
    A weekor so later, now mid March, having not recieved it I rang and he said that it was on his desk and that he had forgotten to post it, could he make a bank transfer to my account. 5 working days later no funds have reached my account and I have a feeling my calls are being directed to answerphone on detection.

    Could anyone, especially you Tim, tell me what I can do in this situation, have I given this internet firm enough time to sort the situation out before seeking legal advice?
    People beware, dont put up with misleading information from so-called owner/experts. At the end of the day they are in business to do one thing, sell their own products to make a profit.
    Also you do not need to put up with fire retardents.....do some research and look for hand made woollen ones which conform to all standards.
    I just wish I could get my money back to buy one so that my wife and I can move off the floor into a real bed. Hopefully it might happen by mid May when our 4th is born
    :mad:
    Well Bedlum Beds did return our money within a couple of days of this post....thanks for being so prompt...an improvement!

    Sorry to sound negative again, but they are both non turn which isn't good for pocket sprung especially. The first one doesn't have memory foam, so try and see if there is a similar one that is two sided.

    As for the second one, it is one of the reflex foam encapsulated pocket spring type mattresses. They are usually much smaller pocket springs, and I have actually seen them made from plastic, or even foam. So it would be worth finding out exactly how they are constructed.

    Did you find out any more about Dreamworld?
