Just very pleased with my koala !

published

The Koala travelled all the way from Sydney to Geraldton W A in six days . I have a problem with beds getting too hot under me, but I can move around on the Koala and beat the heat !
This is the third mattress I have bought this year and by far the best. I now find I am at last getting a better sleep.

. NO MORE SORE BACK!

published

I was amazed at how good I felt after my first morning using the Koala mattress. At first it felt strange but the mattress allowed my body to settle into a natural shape which was supportive and comfortable. abd then I realised my back was not sore as it usually was in the morning. How wonderful! THANKYOU

At last I'm sleeping comfortably!

published

I've had my mattress for a month now and I love it. I'm sleeping so much better with reduced pressure pain on my joints. The mattress was easy to unpack and expand ready to use. I'm prone to hot flushes through the night and the Koala mattress does not over heat my body. I love that the cover can be removed for washing. It has been a great investment in my sleep quality. I now look forward to snuggling up in bed knowing I can finally be comfortable and well supported.

Most comfy mattress ever.

published

The Koala mattress is the most comfortable mattress I've ever experienced, and it's wonderfully supportive, without being too firm or hard...in short, it's just perfect!
I only bought the mattress just over two weeks ago, so I can't comment on it's durability, but from the look of it, I'd guess it will wear well.

Koala helps with Herniated Disc

published

I am getting great sleep with my new Koala mattress even though i am recovering from a herniated disc in my back. It is super and makes sleeping with a bad back less of a challenge.

Great Price, Comfortm and quick Delivery

published

Mattress arrived within a week, (not overnight as it was a weekend while we are a main city - we are a bit more rural than when it comes to shipping/transport)
Comfortable from first night - no need to wear it in.
The foam smell many people always warn you about was only noticeable to me the day I opened it,
and not something i noticed the rest of the week.
it's great to be able to lean on a mattress without tipping over a phone/tablet and/or breakfast in bed.

Goodbye sleepless nights.

published

Was surprised by the comfort and support such a mattress can deliver. I wouldn't go back to my old posteurepedic one. I don't wake with aches and pains anymore and often taken longer to get up because I want to lay there a little longer.

Best mattress ever.

published

Didn't know what to get my growing fast 12 year old son as mattresses in store are either soft, medium or firm. We went with this one due to a one fits all and the 120 day return. We have been so happy and nothing but greats from our son. So far so great.

Great for comfort

published

After reading reviews I thought it was too good to be true. Yes some claims are, but there is no doubt my husband falls asleep quicker, sleeps sounder and when he does wake nods off quicker.

Perfect Comfort. Excellent Rehabilitory Rest.

published

Extremely comfortable and supportive. Kind to my reconstructed ankle and allows me to sleep through the night quietly. Easy to get in and out of bed. Very sound sleep with no soreness that I had for so long and didn't know any better. Love it and would recommend to anyone but especially people with injuries from a physical life looking for a comfortable sleep on an easy to set up bed.

My Koala mattress is perfect!

published

It is as comfortable & supportive as hugely more expensive mattresses I tried that I couldn't afford. Buying a Koala meant I didn't have to compromise on high quality! Thanks!

A great purchase

published

We purchased a king single from Koala based on online reviews - we had not seen nor experienced this mattress first hand. We were very surprised by how supportive and soft it was. The claims on the website are also true - you can't feel another person moving about next to you on the bed. This would be very important if buying a double/queen/king bed. But with a king single it's still good to know if you have to settle a sleepless child by lying next to them in the bed, you can sneak out without waking them!

Highly Recommend

published

I initially wanted to buy a mattress from a competitor of Koala's as I had purchased one of their mattresses before. Sadly, they didn't have the one I wanted in stock and so I had to look elsewhere. I couldn't see any obvious differences between the products except the price - Koala was cheaper! So, I took a gamble and ordered the mattress with them. I can not tell you how impressed I was with delivery (I could track the courier to my door). The product itself is exactly as described and my daughter tells me it is very comfortable and loved the free Plushie Koala and donation on our behalf - nice touch guys! High recommend.

Great mattress!

published

For me, the mattress is the perfect mix between supportive and soft and comfortable. Since sleeping on my Koala I haven't had trouble getting to sleep, nor have I woken up with back pains. I can't say it is the best mattress I have slept on but considering the price, it is a great buy in my opinion.

Greatest Mattress alive today or the century.

published

Easier for me to sleep at night. My back used to hurt when I used a spring bed which was 3 years old. I got a Koala and liked how soft it was just like clouds. I would recommend this to anyone with a sore back or someone in need for a new mattress.

Questions & Answers

King Single

there seems to be a Q about discoloration of the foam. Unless it's a fault it's not a concern but wondering if the cause is known and will it be of concern further down the years?

Koala

Hi Mac,

I’m sorry to hear you're having issues with your koala mattress; the yellowing is caused by a chemical reaction called phenolic yellowing, this is completely harmless but can affect the mattress when they get a little too hot when wrapped in the plastic. We will be happy to replace the cover for you if you could fill in the warranty claim form we will get this out to you ASAP.

The mattress is safe to use, as the reactions is only causing a colour defect and I suggest keeping the exisiting yellow cover after the replacement cover comes as a sneaky spare if you need it.

https://koalamattress.typeform.com/to/yPQbEV

Once you have filled in the form, our warranties team will dispatch you a new mattress cover ASAP. All yellowing claims will be accepted so just stand by for tracking information.

thanks, your answer appreciated. It was only a hypothetical Q so no action required. I am requesting the return of the mattress as it did not suit me after 3 nights use.
