Pregnant woman sleeping on floor as Benson's bed failed to arrive three times

A pregnant woman says she was forced to sleep on a mattress on the floor for months after her new bed failed to arrive. Emma Aburrow, 37, and husband Michael Aburrow, 41, were left frustrated when Bensons for Beds allegedly failed to deliver their order - on three occasions.

The couple ordered a new bed frame and mattress from the firm on January 16 and were given a delivery date of the middle of March. They had thrown away their old bed frame and planned to sleep on their mattress on the floor until their order arrived.

But, frustratingly, it never did, with Bensons allegedly blaming the fuel crisis slowing down their ships for the first delay. The couple then rescheduled delivery for a few weeks later - during which time Emma realised she was pregnant with their fifth child.
