The Acacia Ortho mattress by Rest Assured is a firm, pocket sprung, high-quality mattress for bedsteads. With special reinforcing sections on the mattress underside, the Acacia is ideally suited to sprung slatted, platform or mesh bases most commonly found on wooden, metal and leather bedframes.

Features

• The Acacia features 1400 individually pocketed springs that cushion the body’s pressure points while offering a firmer level of support. Pocket springs are also perfect for preventing the roll-off and roll-together phenomena often experienced with open coil sprung mattresses.
• Sumptuous natural fillings and a high quality silk are used to provide a soft cushioning feel to the mattress without compromising on the firmness of the springs.
• The high quality feel of the mattress is carried through using hand tufted felt tufts rather than stitching.
• Additional support is added to the sides of the mattress by double side-stitching the mattress sides. This not only provides added rigidity, it also gives the mattress a more traditional look.
• There is no need to turn the Rest Assured Bedstead 1400 Ortho Acacia mattress.

From the Rest Assured Bedstead mattress range comes the Bedstead 1000 Ortho Maple mattress. This is an orthopaedic mattress specifically designed for use on wooden, leather or metal bedframes.

Features

Rest Assured have carefully reinforced all of their bedstead mattresses on the mattress underside to ensure the fillings and springs don’t sag or fall between wooden slats used on bed frames. Features of this mattress include:

• 1000 individually pocketed springs in a firm tension for added orthopaedic support. Pocket springs are by far the most popular type of mattress spring units and they offer benefits such as no roll-off and no roll-together.
• Top quality natural fillings offering superior comfort. The mark of a truly comfortable mattress is keeping the feel of springs away from the sleeping surface. This mattress succeeds in providing a soft, comfortable sleeping surface while allowing the spring unit to do its job.
• Hand tufted finish with luxurious felt tufts.
• No turn mattress. Because Rest Assured have reinforced the base of this mattress, there is no need to turn it. All Aspen mattresses should however be rotated every few weeks to ensure maximum lifespan.
• The mattress border is side stitched, giving it both a traditional look and a more supportive sleeping surface.

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.

The fabric used on this mattress is enhanced with natural Aloe Vera, a hypoallergenic solution that also protects against dust mites.

The mattress also features 2 rows of side stitching for extra support and does not need to be turned.

The Sanctuary Deluxe

The Deluxe features 2 spring units. The main support system uses pocket springs and is topped with a second layer of mini-springs. The total spring count on the mattress is 2400, 1400 of which are mini-springs.

The Deluxe features the same Aloe Vera cover as the standard Sanctuary, as well as side stitching and is a no turn mattress.

The Sanctuary Latex

The Latex contains an array of amazing features, including 2600 springs (1400 mini-springs and 1200 pocket springs), and a soft layer of latex foam.

The pillow top is luxuriously soft, and has concealed tufts for added comfort. This is a no turn mattress.

The Sanctuary Memory

The Sanctuary Memory is essentially the same mattress as the Sanctuary Latex, but it has a deep top layer of memory foam which moulds to the body’s contour.

The mattress features concealed tufts and does not need to be turned.
