Hi just got our mattress last night just wondering do you guys recommend rotating or flipping the mattress? Would we be okay just to leave it how it is? Just seen a few people saying they’ve gotten indentations where they sleep.

Hey Corey!

I don’t actually work for Koala, but I bought my own a few weeks back

Koala do recommend rotating it 180 degrees every 6 months to make sure you are using the mattress evenly

Hope you love it as much as I do!

G'day Corey,

Sleepwell2000 is right! We definitely recommend rotating your mattress.

Body impressions (where your shape is reflected in the mattress) are completely normal in all types of modern mattresses, including the Koala mattress, and you shouldn’t be alarmed. These occur over the first few months of use where the comfort layers on top of the core are settling to the body weights and most common sleeping positions used on the mattress.

We recommend rotating your new mattress to help create more even settling of the comfort layers especially where there are two individuals with different sleeping styles or weights using the mattress.



Hope you love your new mattress as much as Sleepwell2000!

Sweet dreams,
The Koala Dream Team.

Am I able to store the mattress for a few weeks standing on its side or will this deform it somehow?

I live in New Zealand and have just bought a koala mattress from someone who never opened or used it. I don’t know when it was first purchased so don’t know if it’s under warranty.
My issue is that when we opened and unwrapped the mattress it didn’t inflate like the videos show and after a few days it still doesn’t seem to fill the cover. Will this change? Should the seems be on the edges?
Thanks

Hi Audrey,
Thanks for your question, I'm sorry this has happened. I'm afraid I don't have good news-
Our warranty and trial are not transferable, meaning it is only applicable to the original purchaser.
There should be a production date stamped on the outside of the mattress box and also on the care tag. Our mattresses need to be opened within 8 weeks after this production date, they are not designed to stay in the box for long periods of time.
The last mattress we sold in New Zealand was in August 2018 which means the mattress you have was compressed in its box for at least 9 months.

What happens to the mattress if it’s stored in the box beyond the 8 weeks?
