High quality bed, mattress and headboard

The Gride

Got 2 of these recently in double size. One for our new extension and the other for my sister. Very high quality bed. The bed is a semi orthopedic. Got them from bigmickey.ie - totally recommend as have bought from them before a few times.

http://www.donedeal.ie/bedroom-for-sale/bargain-bargain-bargain/7235063

The bed is manufactured in UK by Best Rest beds and the headboard is a wave leather model by Stuart Jones- www.stuartjones.co.uk The cheapest I could find the headboard anywhere is around €300 on sale and is as much as €450 in some shops so we got the complete bed for less than you could pay for the headboard on its own in most bed retailers.


We got the lot, that is bed, mattress and headboard for €399 each. Normal price is in the region of €850 so I think its a bargain worth sharing.

Well if we get 5 years out of these beds we will be happy but hopefully even longer.

No, what I meant was for €399 even if we only get 5 years out of it the cost is only a little over a euro per week. We hope it lasts much longer.

Just wondering, anyone who has bought from them...

Do they deliver in a van with Big Mickey on the side ?

This is a once off offer while stocks last.. The headboard offered is a Stuart Jones Wave leather headboard. Google it and see what the prices are in all the big shops. What we are offering the complete bed for |(base, mattress and headboard) is the price some of the big shops are charging for the headboard alone. Free delivery to Kerry also.

On a scale of 1 - 10 I'd say 7.

The picture of the bed on Donedeal does not do it justice. I will try and post a picture of ours tomorrow. It looks far better in our bedroom.

briman1983

ok I think you nearly have a sale!!!

Can you advise of what colours the headboard and bed are available in

tantipie

You can have them made in every colour and in fabric or on leather. You can even supply your own fabric and have the bed with matching headboard made from it. These are a quality bed. You really need to see them and try them.

Yes. We have laods of the beds but the headboards are nearly gone. Only about 20 left.

Thanks OP. Got a super King size delivered last night and Mick done me a great deal on a base with drawers. He's a gent, and I'll be buying from him again.

Michael mor, do you ever have any electric adjustable beds? Most of the main dealers here charge mad prices compared to UK.

Guessing you probably only deal in standard beds but thought I'd ask you anyway.

Hi

Yes we have and in stock. We have Silentnight and Rest Assured sets in stock. We have Single, Kingsize and Superkingsize.

It looks like you guessed wrong. lol Give us a call and will go through all for you. 086-8356888

do you ever have any electric adjustable beds? Most of the main dealers here charge mad prices compared to UK.

I know what you mean about the mad prices. I saw an electric adjustable bed at the Ideal Homes Show and thought it would be ideal for my mother but it was so expensive.
Then one night she wasnt able to lift herself up out of her bed - she is elderly and has had problems with her spine. It was a case of get an electric bed or she might need nursing home care.

We rang Mick http://www.bigmickey.ie/shop/index.php because we already had bought mattresses from him. Now we had to wait a bit but it was worth it and again half the price of whats usually available here. We even got to choose the kind of mattress foam or pocket sprung. After using it for a bit my mother needed a bit more padding and Mick got a memory foam topper made to fit the bed by the same company and covered in the same material as the original mattress. ( She had gotten use to sleeping on a Harrison Mattress)

Thats one of the reasons I buy from him if there is anything that needs fixing or your not quite happy with, he will fix it. He has in my case and hes a gent. My mother refers to him as "Your friend Mick" and wants to know how I met him and how he gets such good beds. After sleeping on a Harrison Mattress my mother said all her life she thought a mattress was just a mattress, something you slept on when you were exhausted and only now has she had the chance to feel what its like to wake up without being sore or tired and to look forward to getting into something so comfortable.

The electric bed we bought is a double with two individual mattresses split down the middle which can be adjusted with a remote control at either side. You can lift both the top and bottom of the bed and it can be adjusted into whatever position you like.

bigmickey.ie, I wonder if you have good deals on bunk beds? We are on the lookout for a sturdy wooden unit, ideally in white, that can be split into two singles beds... We had a look around and the best we have seen so far is the dark solid wood model in Ikea (€299). Thanks in advance!

Hi, We have solid pine ones (85% assembled) for €225 but if you can wait for about 2 weeks, we will have a container of high quality white bunks that split in to two singles and there will be a really good offer on them. They are the same type as the Barcelona that is on our web site but will be much cheaper.

Is this the sequel to the "Good deal on beds/mattresses" self-promotion thread?

Whatever happened to the Talk To forum idea as suggested by the mods?

We did discuss it with boards.ie but as we are only a small company and way smaller than Vodafone, AIB, Bank of Ireland, Eircom, Electric Ireland and so on they advised us that it would be way too expensive for us to enter in to but we have spent quite a considerable amount of money with boards since and are currently talking with them about further spending in the very near future.

Great to see you still have an interest in us !

Thanks

Delivery is free. We were only in Cork yesterday but already have more orders from Cork again. Superking Best Rest divan base, semi ortho mattress and Stuart Jones Wave headboard is €499. Drawers are €25 each so your total would be €549 delivered. Quite a few members on boards have bought these and all of them have told us that they are really happy with the quality for the price paid.

You will find the headboard on its own costs around that in most stockists. In fact in www.bedstar.co.uk and www.bedcompare.co.uk the 6ft Stuart Jones wave leather headboard is £420 (approx €529) and that's for the headboard only without any bed.

Do you also need 2 single complete divan beds or just the mattresses ?

Hi Mickey,

Looking for your best value double bed. It'll only be for a year or so, so the cheaper the better (within reason!). Don't really need a headboard. Based in Dublin.

Got anything suitable?
Thanks.

We get stuff like this all the time. They are generally cancelled orders or non deliveries. They come to us like a job lot of different ones. We have a small number at the min (about 6 sets) They are always €199 when in stock.

Under the offer we have the single beds including the Stuart Jones headboard are €299 each. The beds are normally €249 without the headboard. As the offer has been a major success we are trying to source more of the headboards but if these are all gone then we should have other ones in stock by December.

Hi I am looking for a bunk bed that can be split in two that has steps a bit like the Domino bunk rather than a ladder. Do you have anything like that or any type of bunk that has the storage steps ?

SmoosBoo

I took delivery of a Barcelona low end single bed at 2:00am this morning - straight off the ferry!!!

It cost €159 with free delivery. Cheapest I could find for this bed.

Mick is an absolute gent who kept me informed throughout the whole ordering and delivery process.

Hope you made it home ok!

Do you still have any of the Dorchester 2000 kingsize in stock? I think you quoted about 500 a month or so ago when I was in.
