Finally, this mattress comes with a 5-year guarantee for additional peace of mind.

Key Performance Indicators

Our Key Performance Indicators are produced using a combination of specification-heavy algoritmic data points and user reviews. For example, a firm pocket spring support layer is more breathable and offers better back support but may prove unsuitable for side sleepers, the reverse is true for a soft-medium tension reflex foam support layer. This is one of 100+ datapoints considered when generating the below ratings.

Suitability

*Assuming average weight, suitability will vary dependant on body type, use the wizard above for a more tailored guide.
  • Back Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • The amount of support offered from a mattress will vary depending on the firmness of the tension and the type of support layer used. Based on a person of average build.
  • Side Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • If you sleep on your side you typically need a supportive tension that is not too firm, nor too soft. This is because your hips and shoulders need adequate sinkage.
  • Stomach Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Stomach sleepers need a reasonable amount of tension in the base support layer to adequately offer body contouring and help prevent aches and pains. Results will vary based on your build.

Performance

  • Breathability
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Mattresses that feature breathable materials help promote airflow and keep you cool making for a more hygienic night's sleep.
  • Turning on mattress
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Certain materials like memory foam can make it difficult to move about on the mattress while you toss and turn. Same too for pillow tops which can create a cloud like sensation which can make manoeuvrability challenging.
  • Stability
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Depending on the type of support layer in place can have an impact on stability, edge to edge support and roll together prevention. Pocket springs of a firmer tension will have better stability than open coil soft tension, for example.

Odour

  • Initial Odour
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Materials in mattresses, particularly memory foam and rolled bed-in-a-box mattresses can have an initial odour, this is typically short term and reduces considerably within 24 hours.
  • Long Standing Odour
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Certain materials inside different mattresses can produce a small odour. Typically this is short term rather than long standing but there are minor exceptions.

What Makes The Rest Assured Minerva 2000 Pocket Silk Mattress Great?

Hypoallergenic

This product is unlikely to cause any sort of allergic reaction. Ideal if you suffer from any sort of allergy problems

5 year guarantee

A 5 year guarantee is quite rare in the industry and is a great indicator of the retailer beleiving in their product. Anything go wrong in the next 5 years, no drama, get it replaced.

Handcrafted in the UK

Handcrafted in the UK means that the product is built here, by people being paid a fair and honest wage using certified and safe products of good quality and construction. UK manufacturing is some of th best in the world and all of that is reflected in this product

Chemical treatment-free

No additional chemical treatments have been performed against the product ensuring it remains as natural as possible.

Knitted Cover

It is common in the industry to have a knitted cover, these covers can come in a variety of patterns but are typically hard wearing and do not present problems for consumers.

Medium

A Medium firmness mattress is the most common build offered due to the range of suitability offered in such a mattress. This type of mattress will be better suited toward averagely weighted people, while lighter people should opt for a medium-light, and heavier people considering a medium-firm.

The attractive micro-quilted cover helps to secure the fillings

This mattress comes with a quilted cover. Many people overlook the cover as a need for consideration however, the right cover can add additional comfort and in the case of this one here, adds quilted comfort that offers a soft but hard-wearing cover that is both breathable and stylish.

25cm deep

A 25cm mattress is a good depth for a product of quality. Plenty of room for some good quality springs and enough space for a good top layer of comfort. This side of product should just about fit a standard sheet but do not be surprised if you find you do need to upgrade to a deeper fill sheet to fit over the mattress.

Single-sided

Single sided means only one side is comfy. Positives are you only need to rotate the mattress occassionaly rather than the more cumbersome rotate and flip. Downside is the lifespan of the product may suffer as a result, only marginal, but worth mentioning.

Approved by the National Bed Federation

The NBF is one of the most prestigious awarding federations in the industry, helped slightly by the fact that it is one of the only, however, it is still a great source of comfort knowing that this product holds approval by the team

Mattress depth: 25cm

25cm is a great depth for a mattress, just thin enough to manage squeezing a normal bed sheet over, without the need for a specialist extra-deep sheet, while also being thick enough to fit a decent quality spring system inside. 

Silk

The luxurious natural fibre silk offers enhanced comfort, moisture control and helps to regulate body temperature.  It can reduce heat in the summer and provide warmth in winter.

Pocket springs

Pocket springs are like natures own springy piece of comfort, except they are not from nature. Alas, pocket springs are a very good part of a mattress and often found in the more premium models. Lower quality products will frequently use open coil spring setups, where pocket springs house each spring in a tiny pocket for additional stability and continued support. Pocket spring typically lasts longer than open coil due to this.

Fire Resistant

Fire resistant does not mean the product will never catch fire, rather, it will not go up in flames quite so quickly. Resistant to fire in the same way that I am resistant to kisses, sooner or later you end up giving in.

Wool

Luxury wool, typically found in mattresses in a shredded and felted capacity is an upholstery fibre often used as a top comfort layer, but sometimes found further down in those mattress layers as part of the support structure

Enjoy luxury fillings of natural silk, cashmere and British wool

Natural materials like wool, cashmere and silk are often used in higher quality mattresses. Their benefits are numerous with many preferring the supreme softness on offer while others appreciate the environmentally friendly offering. Another core benefit of natural layers is that they are extremely breathable and as a result create a safe, hygienic and temperature regulated nights sleep.

The natural fillings are breathable for better temperature control

Pure and natural fillings are typically from animal or plant fibers. These can include: Wool, Cashmere, Hemp or Latex commonly.

Contains 2000 individual pocket springs which react to your body

2000 individual pocket springs make this mattress the perfect choice for anyone who wants to wake up feeling refreshed and rested!

The springs are arranged to provide support to the joints, back and hips

This mattress is hypoallergenic and free from foam and chemical treatments

Allergy sufferers often experience the problem of waking up in the middle of the night or having to get up in the morning with a stuffy nose and eyes. The reason why you wake up with a stuffy nose is because your mattress has accumulated dust mites, mould and mildew, all of which are allergens. The solution is a hypoallergenic mattress is made from materials that do not support mould or dust mites. They also have anti-microbial properties that effectively kill any bacteria that may come into contact with it.

Luxurious medium feel, to cushion your body throughout the night

A medium tension mattress like this is the goldilocks of mattress tensions. Not too soft, nor too firm, medium is typically suitable for the vast majority of people that are looking for a good nights sleep. If you are of average build without back or neck problems, this should be a suitable product. If you are of lower BMI and a side sleeper, consider a softer mattress, whereas if you are of a higher BMI and suffer neck and back pain, consider a firmer tension.

Single-sided, meaning there is no need to turn

A single sided mattress is typical for the industry and relates to how  a mattress has the comfort layer on one side of the mattress. only This means that the mattress only needs to be rotated rather than flipped. The benefit of single sided mattresses is that they require less upkeep in that there's no flipping, but also, there's less components involved in the creation which saves costs.

Handcrafted in Lancashire

These mattresses are produced in Lancashire, a county and geographical region within North West England, home to the famous Lancashire cheese and a prime hub for building some of the worlds comfiest mattresses

Pocket springs absorb movement and minimise partner disturbance

Pocket springs are of considerable better quality than their poorer traditional open coil counterparts. Put simply, pocket spring contours better and supports better than other base layers. When it comes to pocket spring mattresses, the general rule of thumb is that the more springs the better. There are exceptions, of course, but for the best part this is likely to be a good quality mattress based on it's base layer.

Customer Reviews For The Rest Assured Minerva 2000 Pocket Silk Mattress

Based on 232 reviews
5

I never thought I will find the perfect mattress at such a good price below £500. It's like water bed. I bought many expensive mattresses in the past including from Harrods which I recently threw it after 15 years and thought why not try buy this for a laugh, and it's prove that it doesn't mean expensive you'll be happy what you get. This one I could honestly say is the best I have spent and will definitely recommend anyone who has a back problems or for comfortable purposes. On this matress you feel like a queen

5

We got this mattress at a great price. The quality is excellent and we have had great nights sleep on it since day 1. I was concerned that it would take a bit of getting used to but it has been the perfect fit for us. I also like the fact that you don't have to keep turning it over. Just turning top to bottom is all that's required. The ease of ordering and speedy delivery were great plus points too.

5

Good support across the whole mattress so that there is no rolling to the centre when one person is heavier. Good firm edge supportI have a lightly quilted mattress cover on top which gives a cosy layer above the medium/firm mattress.My partner has back problems but finds this mattress very comfortable indeed.After always liking a soft mattress, I have been amazed at how well I sleep on this one. Very pleased.

5

This mattress not only has all the support you need, but you also get a sense of luxury from the materials and for a brilliant price. This is def a medium mattress with a bit of give, unlike the Emma memory foam I had which was too hard and made me too hot at night. No handles as most other people mentioned but that hasn't put me off giving it 10's across the board.

5

I ordered this mattess because it has natural filling such as cotton, silk and wool as I am not keen on foam filling as full of chemicals. Also 2000 pocket springs. Its firmness is listed as medium, I found it a bit firmer than I would have liked but still very comfortable. Looks very well made and stitched. Was well packaged too.

5

None really.It is always a gamble paying for something online and not be able to return it once you try it.A medium rating for some may not be a medium feel for someone else.I will never buy a mattress again without being able to try it out first. We now have a topper on it. Thats softer but not perfect.

5

After having a very firm mattress for many years I noticed I was getting a bad back and neck so thought, time for a change. I ordered a medium/firm and I am having the best sleep in a very long time. Exceptional value for money, highly recommend this product. My partner also has a great nights sleep.

5

This mattress is a 4 but feels quite soft to sit and lay on. I also purchased another mattress from this website but a different make and it was a lot more firm and also rated as a 4. If you're looking for something that is 'firm firm' this might be a bit too soft.

5

We slept on this mattress the day it was delivered.There was no smell to it, past mattresses have needed a week's airing before I can sleep on them.Very comfortable. Great support.Not needed a mattress topper unlike our previous very expensive one.Highly recommended.

5

This mattress is so comfortable. Its really soft feeling but has good solid support at the same time. One of the absolute best things about this mattress is that it doesnt have those horrible circular things all over it that dig into your back.

5

We bought a new bed and found the mattress too soft. After sleeping on a Minerva 2000 on holiday we decided to buy one. This mattress is so comfortable. We sleep so well and wake up refreshed and aches and pains free! Highly recommend.

5

Vast improvement over our old mattress. No chemical smell. Very comfortable nights sleep, albeit softer feel to it than expected. Excellent delivery guys, took their muddy shoes off, carried it upstairs and took away all the packaging.

5

I replaced my mattress (which was very good), as I had that for over 10 years, and the change was seamless: I haven't noticed the difference. The mattress was delivered on time, and my old one was taken away on the same delivery.

5

We have struggled over the years to get a mattress with the right level of support.This one,on the firm side of medium,seems to be just right so far and we would recommend it to those who need this measure of support.

5

Initially felt too firm but after sleeping on it for a few nights, it felt perfect. Slept all night for the first time in years. Treated myself to Egyptian cotton sheets and don't want to get up in the mornings!

5

This mattress is well-made, provides good, even support and is excellent value for money. This is the third one we have purchased and guests comment on the comfort of the mattresses on our guest beds.

5

Very comfortable, and seemingly very high quality mattress.I knocked support down a couple of points just because of the edges being a bit week.I would definitely buy this mattress again.
