There are 5 models in Beautyrest's entry-level line of mattresses, starting at $399. We think they're a great value.

The five entry-level mattresses in Beautyrest's innerspring product line are simply called "Beautyrest." They were previously called 'Beautysleep' but that name is now being reserved for a handful of all-foam bed-in-a box model, whereas these 5 models are true Beautyrest innerspring mattresses.
Beautyrest Mattresses
All models in the entry-level share common materials and construction. The main differences between the five models are feel. The two least expensive models are traditional innerspring mattresses, while the three more expensive versions have foam pillow tops or Euro tops, with extra softness and cushioning.
All models share the BR800 model name, which corresponds to the number of pocketed coils in a queen-size bed.

In our quick look at these mattresses, we felt they all offered excellent value for the money, with better materials and construction quality than many mattresses you might find in this price range, including Chinese-made mattresses you may find on Amazon.com. We also thought these models offered nice cushioning (especially the Euro top and pillow top models), along with good pressure relief.
All except the lowest priced BR800 mattress have a small layer of gel memory foam across the middle third of the bed, intended as extra support for your hip area.
Pocketed Coil Support Unit
All models share the same 800-Series pocketed coil support unit; the "800" corresponds to the number of coils in a queen-size bed. Each coils is individually wrapped in a fabric sleeve to prevent noise and to isolate motion, so that coils work independently.
Cooling Features
All five of these Beautyrest mattresses include gel-flecked foam; gel is a known conductor of heat, and in mattresses is intended to help channel heat away from the body.
All also have flecks of silver dust in the cover fibers, also intended to help with heat dissipation. These two features together are called Beautyrest's "Dual Cool Technology."
Gel Memory Foam Lumbar Band
With the exception of the least expensive BR800 Medium mattress, the other BR800 Beautyrest beds have a small piece of gel memory foam that extends accross the middle third of the bed, in between the coils and the top foam. It's intended as additional support for the hip area.
