    another thing is you could refuse delivery

    Doesn't really help the situation though? As they attempted to deliver they'll still charge for it.
  • No worries guys... I'll just have to "woman" up and find an excuse to tell her so I can somehow get her to refund it herself and possibly get a different one whilst offering to pay on top.

    Thanks guys x

    Could you say you are fussy about the comfort?

    Beds are a very personal thing and I wouldn't like someone else buying one for me. When I bought mine, I was in the shop for ages laying on different beds until I found one I was really comfortable on.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Does she know your child sleeps with you? If yes then simply explain about the height. :)

    (I'll refrain from comments about the sleeping arrangements). ;)

    You've got more than a consumer rights problem. Why is your MIL buying you a bed? Some might see that as generous (it is). But it's fraught with problems. Beds need to be chosen personally. I think it's odd that she's taken it upon herself to just go out and decide to buy you something you don't like. Did you ask her to buy you a bed?? What does your husband think?
