Rest Assured Ortho Mattress

Hi, just seen a Rest Assured Ortho mattress on Sainsburys site reduced to £119 and I'm tempted to buy. However the mattress has no 'name' so I've been unable to compare it on other sites or look up reviews. Does anyone know which ortho mattress it is? They are usually called something like Verona, pocket, etc

    If it's double size or bigger. Just buy it. At that price it's a steal!

    Thanks for taking time to reply. It's a single. I haven't ordered as its difficult to compare it with others without knowing exactly which mattress it is.

    Even for a single, £119 for a pocket mattress is pretty good value for money.

    Rest Assured, owned by Silentnight are one of the worst offends of putting out a similar mattress with loads of names.

    Trying to find out exactly what model it is will be very hard.

    Verona is a very old name that Rest Assured used many years ago. I know we still have a 4ft6 display model!

  • It isn't a pocket sprung mattress.

    I assume it's this one ^

    It doesn't seem especially cheap for a traditionally sprung open coil single mattress with no extra features. Around average price really.

    Yes, that's the one. It's supposed to be reduced by 60% so I guess Sainsburys inflated the selling price! Think I'll leave it and shop around.
  • Probably for the best. When they're being so vague about what they're selling its a bit of a risk as you don't know what you're buying. Makes it harder to price compare too!

    What sort of mattress are you looking for?

    Apologies, I thought it was pocket. Hmmm still not a bad price though.

    Only major snag is that it's one sided.
