Rest Assured Pocket Classic Ortho Austen 1400

I’m not a big believer in orthopaedic beds for bad backs. I’d have thought that lying on a rock hard bed would cause more back damage than good, but medical advice says otherwise, so who am I to argue?
To overcome my skepticism of firm tension mattresses, I decided to test our the Rest Assured Pocket Classic Ortho, Austen 1400, a 5FT divan bed that had been sitting in our demo area for a couple of months.
Remember, I’m not a fan of firm beds!
The Austen is, like all other Rest Assured beds, extremely well made. It uses pocket springs for it’s spring unit (1400 of them) and is topped with natural fillings, so it still feels soft even though it is firm.
Additional features include smooth silk and pure wool fillings, and the mattress is hand-tufted to give it that feeling of quality.
The mattress doesn’t need to be turned either, which is probably a good thing if you’ve got a bad back!
The big question: Is it comfortable?
Umm, yes. Surprisingly it isn’t bad. It’s definitely more firm than I’d like, but I still managed a good nights sleep and didn’t wake up with a sore back. I don’t know the science behind orthopeadic beds and how they can help people with back/spinal problems, but if they do help you, the Rest Assured Pocket Classic Ortho Austen 1400 is the perfect bed for you.
