Our current showrooms are located close to the City of London and are well served by public transport. We display our wooden beds in various sizes and finishes, and the full range of mattresses for customers to sample. Other local attractions include Columbia and Broadway Markets and the Geffrye Museum's famous domestic furniture exhibitions.
We moved to Shoreditch in the mid 1980's when the area was very run down, but was still the heart of London's historic and once flourishing furniture making industry. For nearly two centuries hundreds of Shoreditch's back street (sweatshops?) and factories had supplied some of the world's most prestigious furniture stores.

Our bed slats are made from substantial 'flooring grade' timber - as against the more common and far cheaper 'sprung' slats which break easily and are difficult to replace. Designed to last, their bolted construction allows them to be dismantled and rebuilt time and again without weakening. A strong centre beam and virtually unbreakable slats provide the ideal support for a mattress.
Slimmer mattresses of equal quality (approximately 2 or 5 cm less deep) are available for 10% extra. Our first mattress has remained virtually unchanged since 1979, and is constantly re ordered.
Our craftsman made, natural filled mattresses remain popular because they 'breathe' and are vastly superior to the mass produced, synthetic mattresses found on every High Street - for example the current rage - the all singing, all plastic, heat reflecting 'mattress-in-a-box'.We produce three grades with equal care.

Excellent quality beds and mattresses. We bought our bedframe over 20 years ago and its still going strong . We customised our frame with the colour of our choice, custom drawers and also changed the footboard for a different design. When it came to purchasing our children's beds, we returned to L&F and they were excellent once again. I have plugged L&F to all my friends and family. Which other manufacturer can give a lifetime guarantee on the frame? I've yet to find anyone else. One day all beds will be made this way. And so they should be.

Amazing Mattresses and Service. I’ve had my mattress for over three years and have never suffered from back pain since I bought it. After sales services is excellent, I required some re-stitching work to be carried out under warranty with no quibble. A pleasure to do business with and no doubt I will be back to buy another mattress for the second bedroom.

I was looking for a space saving bed for my smallish bedroom and as I needed a king size or bigger, platform beds seemed to be the answer. After lots of searching online I came across L&F who out of all the others were the most reasonably priced.I called to get some advice and Julian helped me to decide on what sized bed and what type of mattress I should choose. He was brilliant. Bearing in mind I only told him what I liked in a mattress. He listened to what I wanted, talked me through the different options. Explained about open coil and pocket sprung etc. and talked through my ideal budget. He

Beds and mattresses, received today so I admit not slept on yet! The oiled wood looks and smells delicious like real wood, unusual these days, and is so smooth on all the edges. The style of the platform bed is perfect, such a lovely simple form made very strongly in generous chunky wood, with no protuberances to bang knees on, it can be a sofa or seat from any angle, and the space underneath just right for storage without compromising stability (Our beds were raised by about 10cm). Then the mattresses are wonderful, we love the cotton ticking, and all natural stuffing without chemicals to inhale

I have ordered many beds from this store for over 20 years, both for my own personal use and for tenants. All are still in use, including a sleigh bed bought in 1997 that has been rented for a decade. Julian is polite and kind and if a mistake is made by him (we all make them) he will rectify it without quibble. My guess is the poor reviews here are from 'send it back to Amazon entitled millennial generation types', who in my experience are the sort of people whose orders are best avoided. If you want a custom bed made expertly and to order, within time limits, Julian is your man.

Bought a series of beds from them about 10 years ago, they are all very well made and made to last. Shocked by reviews I'm reading as they were friendly and my husband spent a good amount of time discussing our order.
Not the most extensive showroom, but value being able to choose design and wood type.
It seems to place still has the similar designs which is a testament to them being perfectly crafted.
The place to go for good quality!

Julian comes through as some one who is a bank of knowledge and appears to know everything about bedmaking. Unfortunately, we got taken in by him and he delivered a bed which was not fit for purpose as he described it in the shop and actually not safe for use. We raised this issue with him and wanted him to either fix it or refund the amount we paid. Unfortunately, he has done neither and we are now exploring a legal recourse to get our money back.
We have had a very poor experience with this company.

With it's unassuming setup, L&F focus on quality. Julian, from the multi generation family business is happy to unravel all the mysteries of the mattress, and focuses on you're night sleep rather than upselling. The mattresses are purpose made in the UK, with a weight and quality, which has actually improved our sleep.
You won't be disappointed. Highly recommended.

Julian Litvinoff is a walking bank of knowledge about beds and mattresses. His many years of experience displays itself in the quality and build of his whole product range. I love the simplicity and sturdiness of the design; putting the beds together using only 4 bolts and wing nuts, instead of screws that would weaken over time.
The quality of the beds and mattresses, allied with the extremely competitive prices represent fantastic value for money.
Moreover, the service and advice delivered by Julian and Corinna is both friendly and efficient.
Going to bed is an absolute pleasure and L&F's
