“We were Mr & Mrs fussy, but after many samples ordered and delivered without a hint of a problem we ordered a Nancy with bespoke crushed velvet (a special order not on the standard list, not an issue for this firm). It arrived, on time, well packaged. We had to store for 3 weeks waiting for the room to be finished. We erected it without any problem. What we have is a beautiful bed, superbly engineered, no plastic at all. This bed is simply top notch, excellent value for money and the company are better than a pleasure to deal wIth. Please, any company act like this one, it will increase sales. Would deal with you any day without hesitation. This is how it should be done, great staff, great product, great price, highly satisfied. If you want an iron bedstead look no further - ever.”

“Fantastic helpful service both online and on the phone. Our bed is just as we wanted it to be. Delivered a little later than originally planned but we were kept fully involved in this to ensure our convenience. Will definitely use OBC again and would recommend them at the drop of a hat. Thank you.”

“I ordered a bed 2 months in advance of when I needed it for. I had to have it delivered on a specific date, therefore gave plently of notice. I called a week before the delivery date and was ensured everything was in place. 1 hour before the delivery slot, I received an e-mail to advise only part of my order was being delivered !!! To cut a very long story short, the 2nd part of my order was scheduled to be delivered the following week - however, no delivery, no phone call !!! I then had to take a day off work for it to be delivered mid week. First delivery driver was rude and sarcastic too. Bed is beautiful and great quality, however, would never us the Original Bed Company again, until they change from using Panther Group as their delivery providers.”

Hi Irene, Many thanks for your review. It's great to hear your positive comments about the look and quality of your bedstead. In regards to your delivery experience, it is disappointing to hear that Panther have not provided the level of service that befits the product. After careful consideration we have made the decision not to use Panther in the future, and will closely monitor our new delivery company to ensure they meet the same high standards we have when making our bedsteads. Thanks once again for your feedback. Best wishes, The Original Bed Company

“We ordered a Carie low foot end bed, which was in stock. The order email somehow showed white side rails for a black bed but this was sorted out by a very helpful lady in customer services at the same time as requesting delivery 2 days later. Item was well packaged. The parts are fairly heavy and putting the bed together is a 2 man job. I wasn’t sure how sturdy this type of bed would be, but it is absolutely solid, so overall I’m very happy with the purchase.”

“I have never had so many parts to put together in a self assembly bed. It took me and my partner several hours to put it together and the instructions were not clear. However, once finished the bed is very attractive, Next time i would pay someone to do it for me.”

Hi, Many thanks for your review. I'm glad to hear that you find your bedstead very attractive. Our beds are designed to both look good and be extremely strong and functional. We also take great care in ensuring that our bedsteads are easy to assemble with clear instructions. Over 99% of customers assemble the beds themselves, and we get lots of positive feedback. I have sent an email for more detailed feedback on which steps were unclear. We look forward to hearing your feedback. Best wishes, The Original Bedstead Company

“The quality of the bed frame was excellent, easy to assemble and delivered very quickly. In addition it was well packaged to prevent damage in transit. My daughter is very happy with it!”

“All very straightforward. Saw something we like online, checked out the Kings Road showroom (not a vast selection there) to check on the quality. Bed arrived 6 days after purchase. It’s sturdy - although from a design perspective there are some unattractive bolts near the head side, which aren’t covered by the mattress or a duvet. Pity as it would otherwise be perfect. Overall though - good value for money spent.”

“I have recently purchased two metal beds from the OBC & a mattress. Right from the word go they couldn't have been more helpful both with information & advice. I am delighted with both beds - the Clarina & the Carrie. The mattress is substantial & comfortable. I wanted to make a couple of changes concerning measurements & they were very accommodating. They made everything very stressfree. I would not hesitate in recommending them .”

“The OBC have been outstanding in customer service and quality. We run a self catering business and needed 4 good quality beds quickly, OBC delivered an outstanding service with a real customer focus on delivering a high quality service. I would recommend OBC for both their quality of product and quality of service.”

“The bed I ordered was easy to erect with two of us, looks absolutely fabulous, appears good and solid, was packed really carefully so all the paintwork remained pristine. It arrived on the day agreed and two very pleasant and polite delivery men brought it into my house for me. I had one query on putting it up and just rang the admin team who gave me the advice immediately that I needed. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.”
