A customer asked

Hi, You appear to have amazing knowledge of beds perhaps you can tell me why the Superior Comfort Blenheim Ortho 1000 Mattress which has pocket springs and a 5 year guarantee is so inexpensive?

Is it worth purchasing or am I missing something due to my ignorance?

Regards Joseph

Hi Joseph,

Thank you for your question.

I can give you a little insight into this kind of mattress.  The mattress you have seen is a one sided no turn mattress meaning it has some form of pocket sprung unit that only has one comfort layer on top usually either reflex foam or some polyester combination.

Given its tension it will be a firm solid bed with more than likely reflex foam as the only comfort layerIt's a bargain for its price, if you want a firm bed.

I would also estimate its life span is far less than the 5 year guarantee. After all you only have one side to this firm mattress.

I could not find any details on what the guarantee covers, I would assume its heavily caveated.  That said this is all speculation as its description is very vague.

Should you require any information or advice with regard to any of our mattresses, I would suggest looking at our Origins Pocket Reflex 1000.  This mattress has a firm top layer with 1000 pocket springs and is fully turnable.
