Our Delivery Terms

All standard UK delivery is free. Delivery of the goods will be to the address entered during the ordering process. If you want to change your delivery address after you have placed the order, we can only change it before the order is dispatched and we can only do it over the phone or via email. Delivery is to the front door of the property only. It is at our discretion whether delivery can be made to any other place in the property.

Provided that we deliver the goods to the address you have specified (or any other address agreed by us in writing or email) then the goods will be deemed to have been delivered and we will not be liable to you for non-delivery of the goods. We do not have to satisfy ourselves that the person who accepts delivery at the address you have provided is you (or is a person authorised by you to accept delivery of the goods).

Goods are only delivered by us or by a third party contracted to undertake delivery on our behalf to your doorstep. If you request that goods are taken anywhere else then we or any third party contractor shall not be liable for any damage to fixtures, fittings or the structure of your accommodation (e.g. damaged furniture or fittings, spillages, plasterwork, brickwork) that may occur. By agreeing to allow the delivery to be made anywhere but the doorstep, you are agreeing to exclude us from liability.

We reserve the right to split shipments where we deem fit.

Collection of Unwanted Mattresses

If you have changed your mind, you have 14 days to let us know that you intend to return your mattress. If you go over 14 days then we will not collect your mattress. In order to start the cancellation process you must call us and receive a cancellation number otherwise we cannot accept the return. We will not start this process without a valid cancellation number issued by The Sleep People. You can get a collections email address at info@thesleeppeople.co.uk

Our prices are in GBP and include all taxes, at the enforceable VAT rate on the payment date, provided that the products ordered will be charged at prevailing prices at the final registration of the order, that is to say, upon full payment.

We reserve the right to change prices on our website at any time. The customer will be charged the price applicable at its order and have read those prices and accept the charge before validating.

The sale prices include shipping charges, unless stated otherwise. Shipping charges may apply in addition to the price of purchased products, depending on the options chosen by the customer, and will be shown before the registration of the order by the customer under the term "shipping".

The Sleep People reserves complete freedom of its offer on the website, including changing prices of the products without informing the Customer in advance.

Payment Methods

You can pay for your purchase by all means available on the Website at the time of ordering.

The account associated with your payment method will be charged at time of order. All payments will be processed by a secure process data encryption so that no information provided by the customer is intercepted by third parties.

The customer fully authorises The Sleep People to use the payment card to pay for their order and that such payment means legally giving access to sufficient funds to cover all costs of their order on the website. The Sleep People cannot be held liable for any fraudulent use of the payment method used.

We cannot be held responsible for any attempt to pay by any other means other than those offered on the website. We cannot be held liable for loss of payment by any means other than that on the website (cheque or cash, for example).

The Sleep People reserves the right to suspend or cancel any Order and / or delivery, whatever its nature and level of execution in case of non-payment of any sum payable by the customer or incident of payment.

The delivery of any new order may be suspended in case of late payment of a previous order, notwithstanding the provisions hereof.

The Sleep People retains full ownership of goods sold until full payment of the full price in principal, fees, taxes and mandatory contributions included.

Product Availability

In case of unavailability of one or more products after placing the order, the customer will be notified by email or telephone. If the Order is entirely unavailable, the Customer will be notified by email or telephone and its transaction will not be charged (or refunded). In case of unavailability of products before or after order, The Sleep People cannot be held liable for any loss suffered by the Customer, nor liable to any damages.

Product Warranty

Our mattresses are guaranteed for a period of 12 months.

Your guarantee may be invalidated if you have not taken reasonable care of your The Sleep People mattress. This guarantee does not apply to instances of normal ageing wear and tear, damage as a result of any kind of accident or abuse, or if the mattress is in a soiled or unsanitary condition. It does not apply if the cover of the mattress has been tampered with, or if the fabric cover has been removed from the foam base. Please use external mattress covers and do not attempt to wash the mattress cover itself. Please do not leave your new mattress rolled and boxed for longer than 7 days from receipt, as this can have a detrimental effect on the longevity of your mattress.

Warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship in a domestic usage including;

A visible indentation or sag greater than 2.5 cm as long as that indentation is not a result of improper use or an unsupportive base
Any physical flaw which causes the foam to crack or split as long as the bed has been used for domestic use and handled correctly
Any manufacturing or workmanship issue with the fabric cover excluding tears or rips not related to manufacturing.

For clarity, the warranty does not cover;

Any damage, whatsoever results from non-domestic use or from unsupported bed base
A normal increase in the softness of the foam pressure-relieving material which does not affect the pressure-relieving qualities of the mattress. This includes sagging below the 2.5cm mark, which is a natural occurrence.
Your comfort preference
Physical abuse or damage to the structure and / or cover material of the Product, including but not limited to, burns, cuts, tears, liquid damage & stains, or soiling.
Damage to the Product arising from using an improper bed frame, foundation, platform bed, or adjustable base.
Products sold by resellers who are not authorised retailers. Products sold “as-is”, “preconditioned”, “reconditioned”, “used”, “comfort return”, “returned”, “previously owned”, or any other similar wording indicating that the Product is not “new” or of “first quality”, or has previously been purchased or used by another consumer.

In summary, the warranty covers a satisfactory quality for the price paid. We offer mattresses which are priced accordingly.

Returns, Refunds & Exchanges

You have 14 days in which to inform us of your decision to return your mattress.

It is important for hygiene reasons that your mattress is still within the plastic coverings. We cannot accept any returns if this has been opened.

Your refund will be paid when the collection has been made and our quality control team assesses the products for any damage. If we arrange a date for collection and the mattress cannot be collected due to you not being in or other circumstance beyond our control, we reserve the right to cancel the refund altogether.

Please note that it may take up to 14 days for your bank to credit your account. We are not liable, and cannot take responsibility for, any bank charges that you may incur during the refund process.
