Best mattress for my crooked back

published

I have been sleeping on a koala mattress for the past month and cannot fault this product at all. I previously had neck and back troubles but haven’t had any issues since bought this amazing mattress.

Excellent service but mattress wasn't for us

published

The online and customer experience was excellent (and we experienced it from start to end as we returned the mattress). Was expecting to get mucked around during the return process but that was good too. The mattress just wasn't right for us.
We scored less from a product perspective because it's hard to ignore the fact that we felt like "it's just a foam mattress" compared to the materials/design that go into other mattresses.

Sorry don't waste your money!

published

Overall the mattress is rubbish, I had two koala mattresses that sagged in a space of 18 months! I wish I could say it was wonderful but no.. End up getting a refund which was pretty easy.. So thanks for that... But no sorry from koala saying I'm sorry you have been sleeping in a ditch for the last year...

A good night's sleep

published

I have found the Koala to be a very comfortable bed. It eases the pain that I had been experiencing in my neck and knees.
It was easy to set up, which I did by myself.
I have only had it for nearly a month but so far it is one of the best mattresses I have slept on.

Date PurchasedJul 2018

So much easier to handle than than other mattresses

published

The mattress is beautifully comfortable and supportive. As an older person, I am delighted with the relatively light weight, which makes it so much easier to make the bed. Perfection.

Best mattress I have ever owned!

published

This mattress offers perfect support without being hard or uncomfortable in any way. I did not have any issues with it being too hot. I sleep so well now no matter what position I am in and after having recent surgery I spent a lot of time on my new mattress with no pressure marks or sore spots commonly encountered. If my mattress was gone today I would buy another Koala in a second. I can't rate this product highly enough and with their trial period there is nothing to lose and a good night's sleep to gain - not to mention all of the associated health benefits. Thank you KOALA I love it.

Stop asking for feedback

Seriously, its just a mattress, a normal mattress - absolutely nothing wrong with it. But Koala will keep sending countless emails asking for reviews and more reviews. Get over it. Please Koala stop asking for reviews.

Great mattress, awful smell

published

Really comfortable mattress, much better than my old one! It arrived the day after I ordered it, so super fast shipping! Only bad thing is the terrible smell - make sure to have time to air out for at least a week!

Back Pain

published

The mattress was great for the first few weeks. After a month or so I began experiencing back and neck pain as the mattress is very soft. If you don't want a soft mattress, this isn't the one for you. They offer a great trial period - make sure you take advantage of the trial period - I was lazy and did not.

Questions & Answers

Andrew W.

Andrew W.asked

Double

Is there a mattress protector that pairs well with a Koala Double Bed Mattress?

1 answer
Koala
Phil O.Koala

G'day Andrew,

A breathable, waterproof mattress protector is a great option to protect your mattress. Look for a protector with a natural fibre content to ensure that it is breathable and keeps you cool. Tencel is a great option because it absorbs moisture efficiently and provides an unfavourable environment for bacterial growth for added protection.

Sweet dreams,
The Koala Dream Team.

Can we machine wash the mattress cover?

Phil O.Koala

Hi Vera,

We recommend that you spot clean your Koala cover for smaller spills. If you need to clean the whole mattress cover you can wash this on a warm wash, no higher than 40 degrees.

Sweet dreams,
Koala Dream team
