This month we’re asking retailers: What has been your best seller this year and why?
Home World – Mattress & Bed Centres
Our best seller this year has been Cool-gel mattresses, they are a great upgrade from Memory mattresses. We’ve noticed feedback from customers that have bought Memory foam mattresses in the past; customers love the Memory mattresses but they don’t like how the mattresses can make them feel too warm in bed, which obviously affects their sleep. Cool-gel mattresses solve this issue & is a very good selling point.
Sofa Club
The Marylebone Soft Truffle range, available as a Large & Footstool set or the Double Corner configuration, has been a top choice for house-proud, style-conscious homeowners this year. This super on-trend yet timeless sofa seamlessly combines comfort and elegance, making it perfect for creating a living space that feels cosy while exuding sophistication. Its modular design ensures it fits effortlessly into almost any home, whether you’re settling into a new property, upgrading your interior, or adapting to the needs of a growing family. We think for all those reasons, its resonated really well with our typical buyer.
Dreamland
The Shire Capri 2000 has unequivocally emerged as our best-selling mattress, both in terms of total volume and value, due to its superior value proposition and unwavering balance of luxury-like comfort at an affordable price. The Capri 2000’s appeal is amplified by its ability to deliver the high-quality attributes typically found in luxury mattresses—such as natural filling, hand side stitching, durability, and comfort—at a significantly more accessible price point. This strategic pricing, positioned in the mid-tier range, has proven critical in today’s market, where price sensitivity is a dominant factor in consumer purchasing decisions. A close contender, the Silentnight Ivory, shares many of the same qualities—supportive firmness, similar price point, and a comparable comfort profile. However, its non-tufted design gives it a slightly softer feel, attracting those who prefer a gentler surface. Both models address the core needs of today’s mattress buyers—firmer, lasting support, high-quality construction, and affordability. These factors combined have made these the mattresses of choice in an increasingly price-conscious market, epitomising the trend toward high-value, high-performance products.
Hatters Furniture
Our best seller this year has been the GPlan Kingsbury range. We believe this is because it looks great and is well priced.
Flooring King
Throughout 2024, we’ve noticed various flooring types, styles and colours trend with our most popular product changing periodically throughout the year. However, heading towards the end of the year, one particular flooring type has emerged as our best-seller. The Quick-Step Alpha Ciro Herringbone – Botanic Beige is our best-selling product of 2024 and it’s easy to see why. This year, we saw the emergence of two popular trends within the world of flooring – natural-looking LVT and oak colours. This option combines the two, giving homeowners a wonderful flooring choice that is easy to install and maintain while boosting their home’s aesthetic with the natural appearance of wood. Next year, we can’t wait to see what trends and flooring products emerge as the talking points of 2025, but for us at Flooring King, this flooring from Quick-Step was the go-to this year.
