Quick Answer: The Scott Living mattress, manufactured by Restonic under licence from the Scott Brothers (Drew and Jonathan), uses Alumilast memory foam, Talalay latex, and Restonic's Q5 coil system. Construction quality is genuinely good because Restonic has been making mattresses since 1938. Our verdict after 37 years of selling Restonic products: the celebrity branding adds no real sleep benefit, but the underlying build is solid. At Mattress Miracle in Brantford, the Castille Scott Living Cooling Hybrid is our most recommended Scott Living option.

What the Scott Living Mattress Is
Scott Living is a mattress line made by Restonic in partnership with Drew and Jonathan Scott, the brothers behind Property Brothers on HGTV. The Scott brothers did not build the mattress. Restonic did. The brand name is a licensing arrangement where Restonic pays for the celebrity association and the Scotts get royalties on every mattress sold under their name.
That matters because Restonic has been making mattresses since 1938. They are one of the oldest and most respected mattress manufacturers in North America. The construction quality of a Scott Living mattress comes directly from Restonic's established supply chain, not from a celebrity design team.
After 37 years of selling Restonic products at Mattress Miracle in Brantford, we know their manufacturing well. Here is what the celebrity branding is and is not.
The Castille Scott Living Hybrid at Mattress Miracle
The Castille Scott Living Cooling Hybrid Mattress is our primary Scott Living offering in Brantford. It is the hybrid construction in the Scott Living lineup, combining memory foam and pocket coils.
Castille Scott Living Hybrid Specifications
- Construction: hybrid (memory foam + pocket coils)
- Comfort layer: Alumilast memory foam with cooling gel infusion
- Support core: Restonic Q5 pocket coil system with Quantum edge support
- Cooling: gel-infused foam plus pocket-coil airflow
- Firmness: medium, suitable for most sleep positions
- Typical customer: back and side sleepers looking for pressure relief with support
The Castille is widely considered the best-value model in the Scott Living lineup. The premium tier (Scott Living Hybrid Lux and Anniversary) adds Talalay latex layers and additional comfort padding.
Construction Breakdown
What actually goes into a Scott Living hybrid mattress matters more than the name on the label. Here is the real construction stack, top to bottom.
Why Hybrid Construction Works for Most Sleepers
Research in Sleep Medicine Reviews indicates that hybrid mattresses combining responsive foams and zoned coil systems can reduce pressure-point discomfort and improve motion isolation compared to all-foam or pure innerspring designs. The Canadian Chiropractic Association also emphasizes that a medium-firmness mattress with layered support tends to accommodate a wider range of sleep positions without requiring position-specific customization.
This article is a product review based on 37 years of retail experience. It is not a substitute for trying a mattress in person to confirm fit.
- Cover: breathable knit, often with cooling yarn technology
- Top comfort layer: Alumilast gel memory foam for pressure relief and cooling
- Transition layer: high-density polyfoam for even weight distribution
- Support core: Q5 individually-wrapped pocket coils with reinforced edge coils
- Base layer: high-density foam base for coil stability and floor isolation
- Warranty: Restonic standard warranty (typically 15 years)
The Alumilast foam is the proprietary piece. It is a memory foam engineered to retain its shape better than standard memory foam while providing similar pressure relief. We have sold hundreds of mattresses with Alumilast and it holds up well in the 5 to 10 year range.
Our Honest Review
After years of fitting customers with Scott Living mattresses in our Brantford showroom and hearing back from them after delivery, here is what we actually think.
What We Like
- Solid Restonic construction. The build quality is real. Q5 coils are well-proven, Alumilast foam holds up.
- Medium firmness suits most sleepers. Neither too soft nor too firm. Works for back sleepers, most side sleepers, and combination sleepers.
- Good motion isolation. Pocket coils separate partner movement effectively. Lighter sleepers benefit.
- Cooling works in Ontario summers. The gel foam plus coil airflow keeps the mattress within a reasonable temperature range overnight.
- 15-year warranty from a 87-year-old manufacturer. Warranty coverage is more reliable than newer boxed-mattress brands.
What to Watch
- Celebrity brand premium. Some of the price tag pays for licensing, not construction. You can get equivalent Restonic models without the Scott Living name for less.
- Medium firmness is not universal. Strict stomach sleepers or very heavy sleepers will want firmer. Light side sleepers may want softer.
- Edge support is solid but not exceptional. Sitting on the edge works fine, but the support drops off more than on firmer Restonic models.
- Not the cheapest Restonic option. If value is the priority over branding, the Restonic ComfortCare Dalton and Albany delivers similar construction at lower cost.
Who It Is Right For (And Who Should Skip It)
The Scott Living hybrid is a genuinely good mattress. It is also not the best choice for every sleeper.
Who Tends to Love the Scott Living Hybrid
- Back and side sleepers looking for a medium-firm feel
- Couples who want motion isolation without going full memory foam
- Shoppers who appreciate the Drew and Jonathan Scott aesthetic and brand story
- Hot sleepers who want cooling but also need coil support
- Anyone coming off an old innerspring mattress looking for a modern upgrade
Who should probably skip it:
- Value-focused shoppers. You can get similar Restonic construction without the celebrity premium. Try the ComfortCare Dalton or Albany for a more budget-conscious version.
- Heavy sleepers who need firmer support. Look at our Sentora Ultra Firm or High Density Firm Mattress instead.
- Light sleepers wanting a pillow-top plush feel. Try the Lauren Euro Top or Elena Mattress by Sleep In.
- Anyone with severe acid reflux or snoring issues. Pair any mattress with one of our adjustable bed frames instead.
Scott Living vs Other Restonic Models
Here is where it gets useful. Restonic makes several mattress lines. Scott Living is just one of them, and often not the best value.
Restonic Model Comparison at Mattress Miracle
- Restonic ComfortCare Dalton & Albany (from $875): The entry-level Restonic. Dalton is firm, Albany is plush. Uses similar core construction to Scott Living without the licensing markup.
- Restonic Revive Tiffany Rose & Jasmine (from $1,745): Mid-tier Restonic. Step up in comfort layers. Strong alternative to Scott Living at similar price.
- Restonic Revive St Charles & Elizabeth (from $2,290): Premium Restonic line. Luxury materials, 3D support zones. Competes with Scott Living Lux.
- Reflections ET Dual Comfort: Dual-sided with different firmness on each side. Useful for couples with different preferences.
- Silk & Wool Flippable: Natural materials premium Restonic. Alternative to Scott Living for buyers who want natural fibres.
- Castille Scott Living Cooling Hybrid: The Scott Living option itself.
Most customers who come in asking about Scott Living end up buying a different Restonic line once they feel them side-by-side. The construction quality is similar across the Restonic range; the Scott Living premium comes from branding, not better materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Scott Living mattress actually made by the Scott Brothers?
No. The Scott Living mattress is manufactured by Restonic under a licensing agreement with Drew and Jonathan Scott. The Scotts lent their name and brand; Restonic built the mattress using their standard manufacturing processes. This is typical for celebrity-branded products.
Is the Scott Living mattress worth the price?
The construction is genuinely good because Restonic makes it. The celebrity branding adds cost without adding sleep benefit. If you like the Scott Brothers' aesthetic, the Scott Living line is a solid choice. If you care more about value, the Restonic ComfortCare Dalton & Albany or Restonic Revive lines offer similar quality for less.
What firmness is the Scott Living hybrid?
Medium, roughly 5-6 on a 10-point firmness scale. It suits back sleepers, most side sleepers, and combination sleepers. Strict stomach sleepers usually prefer firmer, and light side sleepers often prefer softer.
How long does a Scott Living mattress last?
Expect 8 to 12 years with normal use. The Alumilast memory foam and Q5 pocket coil system are both durable. Rotation every 3 to 6 months (if not flippable) helps maximize lifespan. Pairing with a proper bed frame or adjustable base also matters for longevity.
