If you’re looking for a high-quality affordable divan bed the Rest Assured Classic Sophia 1000 doesn’t disappoint.

Conventional mattresses used on divan beds have the advantage of a divan base to provide support and structure to the mattress. Using this type of mattress on a bedstead can often lead to a compromise in sleeping comfort because the base support is provided by wooden slats. For this reason, Rest Assured developed the Classic Bedstead range, which don’t need a divan base to provide 100% support.

The Rest Assured Bedstead Classic 1000 is the entry-level mattress into this range, but it still boasts an impressive list of features. Built on 1000 Individually responsive single comfort pocketed springs, this is a perfect medium tension mattress. Special reinforcing under the spring unit provides the support normally provided by a divan base. This reinforcing meant that turning the mattress would be undesirable, so Rest Assured used no-turn springs and sumptuous natural fillings.

To compliment the obvious quality of this mattress, it is hand tufted with soft felt tufts and contains a side stitched mattress border for a traditional look and a supportive sleep surface.

The Rest Assured Bedstead 1000 is available in the following sizes:

• 2FT6 Small Single
• 3FT Single
• 4FT Small Double
• 4FT6 Double
• 5FT Kingsize
• 6FT Superking

Prices on these mattresses range from £170 to £485 depending on the retailer you buy from (we source our prices from bedstar.co.uk) and delivery is usually within 2 weeks of order.

Buying a Rest Assured mattress means you are buying into a 100 year bed-making tradition, guaranteeing you the highest quality and after-sales service you would expect from one of the UK’s most well-known bed manufacturers.

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.

The Sanctuary

The Sanctuary is the entry-level mattress in this range, with 1200 pocket springs (for a medium tension), and a luxuriously soft pillow top.
