Be careful about slandering people too. If you even bothered to go to his store, you'd find out that he makes no claim to be an "official stockist" of anything. One of his previous ads on donedeal also mentioned "transport marked" mattresses. The product is new, but might just have gotten marked during shipping. That's why they are cheap.

As for time in portlaoise. I'll bet you wouldn't say that to someone's face.

Very well said sir.

Hi,

I'm a regular poster in the Poker Forum.

I made the trip from Dublin to Longford in search of a good bed. The drive took an hour and a half from Red Cow Roundabout. I was welcomed in by Mickey and his staff and handed a much wanted mug of tea. A lovely bunch of people and top quality stuff for really good prices.

Mickey was very honest with me and pointed out any thing that may have been relevant to me such as a blemish or something. He was friendly and efficient.

I bought a top end bed and mattress, Duvet & Cover, Pillows & Pillow Cases.

I'm absolutely delighted with it all and I feel that I got a great bargain.

One thing to note if you are coming in to Longford from the Dublin Road...
I recieved directions from a friend who told me to continue into Longford town and dirve straight down through the town and keep going out the far side. I followed this and yes, it did get me there but trafic was heavy and slow moving through the town.

It is not nessessary to drive through the town...
Just before Longford you come to a roundabout with a sign pointing left saying "Longford 2Km". Don't turn left here! this will bring you into the town. You can by-pass the town by going straight through the roundabout following the sign to "Sligo". Then when you come to a large roundabout with a garage and a McDonalds turn left. The shop is about a mile out that road on your right.

Hi,

Have been in the market for a new king mattress this past 3 months.
Rang bigmickey 2 weeks ago & he emailed me a few pics.

Finally drove down sat morning,picked out a king size mattress,wasnt fussy about the base.

Bought a memory foam mattress €499 & base for €100.
Bed was delivered sat evening!! & he even took away old mattress & base.

Bed is fantastic,love it,had an excellent sleep.

I had looked around in a few shops/online before purchasing & this worked out at great value.

Bigmickey couldnt have been more helpful.
Great customer service & terrific value.

BR
Happy customer

I don't normally post much, but I tend to read a lot on boards, which is where I first came across the name Big Mick.

Last week I saw that he had a genuine Laz-y-Boy suite in stock (2 x reclining 3-seaters) at a price of €1,500.

Since a single Laz-y-Boy reclining chair retails at about €800, this was definitely worth a look. I paid a deposit on the spot, it was delivered today (free) and I am now sitting in luxury.

Thanks to Boards for this thread, and to Mick for the deal....incredible value for pristine, new, quality furniture by one of the best brands around. I will certainly be watching Mick's for any other furniture I need.

Went down to Micks last tuesday for a mattress. I had a €300 budget and wasnt expecting too much. Bought a 'rest assured 1000 pocket sprung mattress for €300 (bargain!!). Mick said he could drop it back to Kildare that evening!!(no charge!). Very happy with the deal.

Got home and Mick called me to say the mattress I bought had some damage on the under side that neither of us had spotted. He explained that he would not sell it to me in that condition and I could have a full refund or I could have a 'rest assured 1400 pocket sprung' for no extra cost! The 1400 is the next level up and costs over €1000 in the shops! I said I'd take it!!
Was delivered first thing the next morning. I am extreamly happy with the deal I got, the mattress is far superier than any I have ever slept on before. I would higly reccommend dealing with Mick before any high street store.
Can you imagine if the same thing happened with a mattress bought from the high street?! It would have been delivered damaged, you would have to chase them to come out and pick it up and then probably have to wait 2 weeks for a replacment!

Mick delivered my Harrison sprung bed base which I asked him to get me a few months ago to go with the Harrison mattress I bought. I showed him a picture of the colour I wanted and he said 'leave it with me' - as usual he came up trumps !

Half price beds and mattresses in Argos til 14th June

Hi Karen, I checked out Argos too but I got 2 Rest Assured mattresses of Big Mickey's in Longford. The same as the mattress in Argos, Big Mickey was exactly half the price of Argos sale price. In other words, he was quarter the price of the recommended price. No waiting around either like argos. He had them in stock. Big Mickey delivered the same day. Very happy customer here :):)

Hi took a spin down to Micks yesterday for two matresses. Got a great deal on two rest assured at less than half the price in Argos. Great guy to deal with and even supplied tea/coffee and biscuits. Matresses were delivered today and took the old one away. Will be back down when we get around to changing the sittingroom suite.

Regarding the directions above. DO NOT TURN LEFT AT MC DONALDS.
This will bring you into the town ..... learned the hard way. When you come to the roundabout at Mc Donalds just continue on through it and out the main road. You will see Micks on the right hand side about a mile out.

Once again a top guy to deal with and cannot praise his customer service enough.

Mick delivered a kingsize mattress and a double mattress to me yesterday. Like the other womans story the 1000 sprung double had damage so he replaced it with a 1400 before he delivered. Best service I've had from the retailing trade for a very long time would highly recommend doing business with Mick (stylish Interiors).

Was looking for a new bed and a few matresses so after reading this thread decided to give Mickey a visit.
Could not be happier. Spent an hour there and got all we wanted and more. The quality of stock is unbelievable, and the prices even more so.
No hard sell. Mickey is sound as a bell. Will be recommending him to everyone and anyone - great to see a well run business with genuine value for money..

Gulliver

A lot of people got tea and biscuits from Mickey. Feeling a little hard done by now

thanks guys

thanks guys

Considering the weight of opinion in favour of Big Mickey and his service, I feel I must be almost alone in my disappointment. I've tried on 4 occasions to get info from him about mattresses. I've been promised a phone call once and an email twice and all have failed to materialise. I know I'm not trying to spent a fortune but still its disappointing, especially seeing how people have been getting calls weeks later to see if they're happy with their purchases. I'm a 6 hour round trip and E70 worth of petrol away from him, so am willing to buy sight unseen if I can just know what I'm buying in advance.

Maybe I spoke too soon - got texts from Mick this morning, apologising for the delay in coming back to me. Followed up with a call and an e-mail, came up with an offer that I'm really tempted by - sounds like a couple of really good mattresses. Hmmm, decisions, decisions...
