Very experienced and knowledgeable owner. This place has been selling beds for four generations and you can tell from how expert they are. They offered to get in a particular mattress to put on display for us to try it - great customer focused service!

Fantastic service, most impressed, ordered sofa, two reclining chairs and a nest of tables, Martin was a pleasure to deal with, forget the big companies go there for personal, non pressurised, old school service.

We couldnt be happier with browns and highly recommend them. They are very knowledgeable (we bought a new bed, pillows and mattress) and the floor covering we bought is brilliant and was perfectly fitted by Brian King.
