Completely changed my quality of sleep!

published

My family has been using the Sleep Republic mattress for the past six months, and it has drastically improved our quality of sleep, even when our toddler climbs into bed with us in the middle of the night! It's just the right amount of firmness that I don't even feel my partner move when he has to wake up earlier in the mornings. The set up was super easy, and the customer service has been exceptional. I just wish we would have gotten one sooner!

very happy

I bought this mattress for my 12 year old daughter. She's very happy with it. The only problem is whenever I lie down beside her, I fall asleep...it is SO divine !!! Hard to explain why - I feel like I'm sleeping on a cloud but perfectly supported. Give it a try.

Great mattress & really competitive price.

Bought a King Single & a Queen, Mattresses are everything they claim, and the other reviews I read before purchase are accurate. My partner and I follow each other around the bed at night, and can stay close whilst still being fully supported !!
Whole order and delivery process was easy, Thanks .

Mattress a bit firm fo me but the company great!

published

Unfortunately this mattress was too firm for me as I am very light. However the after sales service was great, they had the mattress picked up as discussed and the refund was given straight away after. The product is great.

Loving and dreaming...this is a great mattress

published

We researched mattresses for weeks and weeks having made a poor choice last year on an expensive mattress which we sold on at a loss ... we love our new Sleep Republic mattress, very comfortable, medium-firm yet soft. The body relaxes easily, minimal partner disturbance. No longer need the lambswool underlay, in fact, it felt too soft with it. Great for dreams, sleeping and loving....we've called it the dream factory (perhaps due to undisturbed sleep so the body is able to go through all the sleep patterns undisturbed?). Delivery great, 4 days to regional Australia, customer service perfect. Needed a few days to lose the smell, but fine now. Very, very happy customers who will NOT NEED the generous 100 day refund!

A life saver!

published

I purchased this mattress a few months ago and could not be happier. I suffer from knee pain at night and I find the quality of the mattress makes a big difference. Since purchasing this mattress I have been pain free. The Sleep Republic mattress is so comfortable but simultaneously gives me the support I require to prevent the pain in my knee. I like a very soft top but once I put my mattress topper on top I have the best of both worlds! Delivery and communication were both exemplary.

The first reason I tried this mattress was,i had nothing to loose, knowing I could get my full money back! after 100 days trial. Since the first nights sleep, my back pain has gone, its the best nights sleep I have had in years, my old bones and joints are pain free. Thanks to a great quality & affordable product. I enjoy going to sleep every night and waking up with a spring in my step! Certainly recommend trying it you wont be disappointed!!!

The Search is Over!

The Sleep Republic mattress ticks all the boxes for comfort, service, affordability, and convenience. Initially we were impressed by the engaging website and the ability to actually test it for 100 days! We researched and read the reviews from customers who seemed articulate and sincere. We love the progressive technology and the thorough consideration of the design. The packaging, including the blade, is stylish and actually incredible. The mattress folded out seamlessly and there was no odour. The customer service was amazing! Emails were answered quickly, thoroughly and respectfully. We have woken up feeling refreshed, pain free (I have scoliosis) and ready for our busy days. Thank you to the Sleep Republic team!

Best Mattress on the Market

published

It was Sleep Republic's 100% money back guarantee that made us purchase. After all if we didn't like the mattress we could get a full refund!
Definitely NOT sending it back! I've been waking up with a stiff back for years and never able to go back to sleep if I woke up early in the morning. The Sleep Republic mattress has changed all that; no morning back ache and loving the weekend sleep ins! The mattress is firm and supportive but with a soft top; heaven!
All this wrapped up with a 12 YEAR Warranty!
Thank you Sleep Republic!
Best Wishes

Very Impressed with Sleep Republic

published

I am very impressed with the team at Sleep Republic. They honor everything they promise. I purchased the mattress and it arrived within a few days. The mattress was very good quality and medium firm. Unfortunately I needed a very firm mattress due to my lower back issues. I told them I needed to return it (within 100 days) and as they promised they organised for the Salvos to pick up the mattress and they refunded me the same day. I would highly recommend shopping online at Sleep Republic.

Hi, thanks for your comments and feedback. We are biased but we designed our mattress to be equal to and better than considerably more expensive alternatives. Happy sleeping! SR

Exceeds Expectation!

I bought my young daughter a double mattress & was nervous but from these reviews decided to go ahead. What an amazing mattress! It is exactly as described on the website! We are considering changing all other mattresses in our house with a Sleep Republic one now. I had an extra request which Sean went out of his way to fulfil as well. Great mattress at a good price with excellent customer service!

A product that does what it is claimed to do!

published

Can't help but agree with the other reviews. The whole mattress "experience" has been very positive and yes it is comfortable and supportive. As a side sleeper I find it allows me a good nights sleep and seems to minimise hip joint pain. The service shown by Sean was indeed Best Practice in following up the mysterious non arrival of the item after 6 days (slack couriers). I did note a small non stitched area of the Free mattress cover skirt and the mattress length is not the same as my "old" Queen size by several cm's BUT money well spent and thanks.

We are looking for a firm queen size mattress, our actual one was supposed to be firm but not any longer after two years. Our concern is about the top mattress as after reading the reviews from SR looks like that we will could have the same issue. Do you have the mattress that we are looking for? Thanks, Ana.

Hi Ana, This mattress is definitely more of a medium feel, not a firm feel (I recently was looking for a mattress for our camper trailer and tried a few at Fantastic Furniture that were listed as "Firm" feel and they were definitely firmer than ours.) I don't feel that the Sleep Republic mattress will be firm enough for you based on your question (Sorry)

Sleep Republic
MarkSleep Republic

Hi Ana,
Feel is a tricky subject to discuss as is it highly subjective. What one person may describe as firm, someone else may well describe as medium. Having said that when placing the Sleep Republic mattress on the traditional Soft-Medium-Firm scale, we'd place it closest to being a medium feel mattress. Hope this helps!
Regards,
SR Team

What is the maximum weight that your SR King size mattress will support? (Singularly on each side)
Is it wise to rotate if both partners weights are extremely different?

1 answer
Sleep Republic
MarkSleep Republic

Hi Ena,
Our King, Queen and Double mattresses are tested to a combined occupant weight of 250Kg, 150Kg per side.
We recommend with all mattresses rotating them regularly and if there is a large weight differential this could be done every few weeks to even out wear.
What may be evident with any mattress having foam in the pillow top, or a foam core, is that with more weight there will be more body impression visible. This is a natural outcome of the physics and the fact that some areas of the mattress get very little use compared to others.
