“After years of continually repairing the slats on sub £350 frames and tightening loose screws and bolts, only to find that the bed frames over a few years lose ridgity and support we started exploring higher price brackets. We decided we wanted to find a sprung slat base that had quality, elongevity and aesthetics. The one main priority in the search was a company that had done away with the plastic slat supports that always break and the slats ride all over the place. After much searching and disappointing results where other more expensive frame companies still used inferior plastic fitments. On the OBC site looking closely at the pictures we felt sure they had a better system, appearing to be metal supports welded to the frame. I feel OBC OUGHT PROMOTE THIS ELEMENT MORE EFFECTIVELY ON THEIR WRITE UPS. We ordered the Selkirk kingsize bed frame a juno wool mattress to suit before Christmas 2021. With the no quibble guarantee return policy, we had nothing to loose! They even reassured us the mattress could be used without the polythene cover, and still qualify for return. The frame arrived in perfect condition and the delivery staff were most cordial and helpful. The frame went together very easily and was so stable and looked beautiful. The mattress looks great, was spotless and excellent depth. The retro stripe look is great, but who cares, I sleep on top of the sheets 😂😂😂🍷nice tho.... The adjustable height is great, as I've got it high for storage underneath and feel like a kid sitting on the edge of the bed with feet swinging... Kool... The mattress is firm enough and soft enough! Or should I say perfect, supportive, sumptuous and again takes me back to being a kid again, when I loved the feel and comfort of my bed. All in all I won't be returning either, so sorry to those who wanted a returns bargain! Lol.... Thank guys and gals at OBC, your great, the products great and the delivery was great. And of course the return policy is great if your crazy enough not to keep it. But please OBC sell the fitment of the slats, separate detailed photos and write up! It's a game changer !!! 🥃🍷🍷🥃😎”

“Delivered as arranged. No problem to assemble, but there were two of us. It is a heavy, solid and good quality bed. It has two height settings, I had it on the highest initially but have now had it lowered. It is a very comfortable bed and I would purchase from 'The Original Bed Company' again. I love it!***********”

“Spent an awful lot of money on a 'Hicks Blue' Ashley metal bed frame. Colour is gorgeous, but workmanship is poor. Some of the pieces have been cut at slight angles, meaning the frame doesn't fit together flush, isn't entirely level on floor and squeaks. Really disappointed! Wouldn't buy from them again.”

Dear Georgina, Thank you for your review. We're really sorry to hear the issues with your bed received. Please kindly note that the issues can be resolved with our team members if you could kindly send us your order number and some photos for the issues. Usually our beds are much sturdier and stronger so they don't produce any noises if the assembly is done correctly. We do provide a 5 year warranty against any manufacturing defects for our beds. Therefore, we're happy to hear from you at your earliest convenience to discuss the issues with us. Best regards, The Original Bed Co.

“Excellent white king size bed (Hamilton). Heavy for me and easier with 2 to put together than 1. The long rods to hold on the brass rods at top and bottom were a conundrum to start with but fine once we read the instructions! I use my previous mattress - the bed is extremely comfortable , high height so easy for me, looks great. Delighted. Lots of choice online and prices excellent. No delay in delivery and helpful delivery men. Recommended by my daughter and I would recommend to others.”

“Absolutely fantastic bed frame and mattress, so pleased we ordered another for our sons room. Had a hiccup with delivery which was the fault of the delivery company but the OBC rectified this and we’re generous enough to refund delivery and brought a bed frame themselves from another store. Would certainly buy again from here.”

“I was concerned about how stable the bed would be, given the reasonable price, but my fears were unfounded. The bed is very sturdy. I have a very slight creak in one place but I’m sure I’ll find and resolve it, but I would buy this again. Quick deliver, too.”

“I absolutely LOVE my Ballina 4ft bedstead. It's so beautifully designed and looks great with the white antique French bedspread! The mattress is really well-made and very comfortable. It was easy to assemble using your instruction video. Everyone involved was so helpful and polite. Thank you so much. S.A.”

“I've purchased two double bedsteads from OBC in the past few months. Easy to assemble, good look and good quality. Also bought a double mattress (wool interlayer), which is exceptionally comfortable.”

“Excellent quality beds that are simple to assemble and will last a lifetime. I can’t believe they are not double what we paid! We spent ages travelling around different shops looking at metal framed beds but most were made out of materials that wouldn’t last five minutes but then I found the Original Bed Company website. We took a trip to the Corby showroom just to check the quality and to ask a few specific questions and they couldn’t have been more helpful. We ordered a bed and mattress and it was delivered a week later by two very polite and helpful men. Very happy and would highly recommend!”
