It’s what we believe
There are three main reasons why we think you should choose Barretts for your new bed, and all your home furnishings. It’s really all to do with what we believe…
We believe:
- In putting our customers’ best interests at heart at all times
- That dealing with Barretts should be a pleasant and fulfilling experience
- Everyone can have stylish, comfortable and affordable home interiors
Simple really. But what does ‘putting your best interests at heart’ really mean? Well, we won’t try and sell you something you don’t need or want. The advice we give will be based on what we really believe, and on our years of home furnishing expertise and knowledge of current styles and trends. If you need time to consider, that’s absolutely fine by us. In fact, we will encourage it. How refreshing does that sound?

Traditional values
In short, Barretts is a store where expert advice and traditional respect and courtesy come before ‘closing the sale’. We genuinely want to help. And we’re confident that your experience with Barretts, along with the great value we offer, will mean you will want to buy from us.
To support all this we don’t operate a sales commission system. This means no high-pressure selling at Barretts. Why? Because that’s not what’s best for you.
You won’t have to go hunting in a hanger sized showroom for help – our staffing levels ensure we are there when you need us. And speaking of our staff, between them we have over 200 years retail experience!
Speaking of our staff, say hello to the friendly and helpful Beds and Bedroom Furniture Team!
