SASO’s suite showroom is a fine sight
The SASO superstore on Savile Road, Castleford, has long been the home of one of the biggest and best selections of beds and mattresses in Yorkshire.
Now, however, there is more to see, in the shape of a dedicated first-floor showroom containing a fine collection of carefullychosen suites and accessories fit to grace any home.
While a small selection of sofas had long featured in the showroom, the SASO team took advantage of the enforced closure earlier this year to create a much bigger suite display area at first-floor level.
Around the walls are a number of room sets, where suites are complemented by tables, ornaments, mirrors and paintings, with more sofas and chairs on show across the rest of the floor.
As with the beds and mattresses downstairs, the selection of suites has been chosen to combine quality with affordability, ensuring a wide range of budgets are catered for: comfortable furnishings at equally comfortable prices.
Although this new development is a big step forward for the business, nevertheless SASO remains committed to maintaining its well-deserved reputation as a retailer of top-quality beds and mattresses.
SASO is particularly proud of its extensive selection of products by Leeds-based bed and mattress manufacturer, Harrison Spinks, a longestablished company with an unrivalled reputation for quality and workmanship.
“Made in Yorkshire” is a proud proclamation of many businesses but few can mean it to the extent of Harrison Spinks.
From the basic raw materials onward, as much as possible of each bed and mattress is sourced within the county, with many of the materials and components produced in-house.
The company has its own farm, near Tadcaster, where
600 sheep provide most of the wool for pillows and mattresses and 150 acres are devoted to growing hemp and flax.
Timber comes from the firm’s 56-acre North Yorkshire wood, while the factory includes facilities for weaving, wire drawing and spring production.
All this has contributed to a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in Sustainable Development in 2019 and Carbon Neutral Organisation status.
It goes without saying that
Harrison Spinks is by no means the only producer available at SASO, which also stocks beds and mattresses by British manufacturers including Hypnos, Millbrook and Relyon, all of which focus on craftsmanship and quality.
Complementing the beds and mattresses is a collection of quality bedroom furniture by long-established German family firm Weimann.
