Worth it!

My experience with Sleeping Duck has been extremely positive. The communication has been prompt and professional. The mattress itself is super comfortable and just the right firmness. My partner and I haven't had any sleepless nights since getting the mattress.

Very comfortable

published

A very comfortable and supportive mattress. Ordering and delivery is simple and fast. In fact the mattress was out of stock but came much earlier than expected. So simple to set up. And being able to return if you are not happy is a great way to try it out. We will keep ours!

So Comfy !

published

Have had this mattress for about 8 weeks and loved it right from the first night, still loving now. I used to get up in the morning with aching lower back but I haven't experienced any of this since sleeping on the Sleeping Duck. We also purchased the pillows and will probably have to get another as mine has mysteriously made its way to another bedroom in the house.
I totally recommend this bed, and pillow. The peace of mind knowing you can return it if you're not happy is a comfort as I have had the experience of purchasing a bad mattress.

Glad I found Sleeping Duck

published

Will keep this brief.. Excellent customer service and product!
After trying 3 different premium mattresses and some being more expensive than SD, we finally settled for SD. Initially we ordered the firm option which was good but not firm enough for us and SD gladly sent us the Super Firm inserts. I wonder why SD does not have the option of choosing Super Firm option while placing the order.

The process of requesting the super firm option was smooth and was delivered in a few days (3 or 4 days) couldnt ask for more.

We are now used to the mattress and look forward going to bed. Please note this has not improved my sleeping pattern or my back aches but thats just me (always had problems) but it definately is comfortable.

Try one!

After researching your product I thought “why not”.Glad I did.
The medium version seemed a bit soft and was a bit warm to
sleep on.Although it was past the 100 days you sent me firm
foam inserts at no cost to me.Great Customer Service!
Problems solved.Great value for money for sure.I enthusiastically
recommend these to anyone.Cheers,Johnno.

Best mattress I've owned.

published

Great mattress. Really happy with the firm in a Queen. Supportive without being too hard.
As a mostly back sleeper I don't suffer when turning onto the side or stomach.
Been using for about 6 weeks. So far so good.

So glad I listened to my sister when she recommended her Sleeping Duck. I've loved it from the first night.

published

I ordered the firm mattress as I have a lower back problem. This mattress is exactly that, firm but not hard. I've found it supportive but also giving enough to be comfortable.
The mattress doesn't seem to hollow out like my last latex mattress and that one was almost twice the price.

Extremely happy.

Comfortable, perfectly firm for my liking.
My sore lower back has improved greatly, & I wake less often very little noticeable movement from partner. I sleep much cooler now which is lovely.
Mattress only a few months old so is still brand new condition.

Love it, so comfy yet still very supportive

published

The mattress has had a positive effect on both my husband and myself, we are not waking up with sore backs. I do believe the mattress is durable but the only concern that my husband has is that it seems to already have our body moulded into the mattress and in the middle of the bed where we are not sleeping it seems to be quite high or no dint as such. Is this normal and will it get worse?

Goldilocks’ mattress

Finding an all seasons mattress is hard in southern Australia - not too hot in Summer, not too cool in winter. But I think I’ve found it! Our new mattress is nice and cool and breathes well which has been great.

Happyish

Very nice mattress but not as firm as I'd imagined. Although I've been sleeping well i think there should be a super firm option. Well, it's a mattress made from materials that can be compressed and rolled to meet efficient business practices so i didn't expect that it would also meet my stupidly high standards :D

Best mattress I've slept on. I still have a few aches and pains with arthritis in my back, but this mattress is very comfortable and helps tremendously. I highly recommend Sleeping Duck :)

Great matress warm sheets

published

Bought the ultimate queen bundle, have veen enjoying the mattress, especially its height! The tincel sheets have turned out to be very hot despite cool weather (mid 10's to 20's) with just themselves and a duvet, taking some getting use to but my partner seems to sleep in them fine. Would definitely recommend the mattress

I understand the hype!

published

I guess we got dragged in with all the hype and the announcement on the radio. We we’re thinking of a new mattress because of our aches in the morning and bad sleeps. So we made the decision. Rang up and purchased over the phone. There was minimal delay in receiving the mattress. Set it up and slept on it that night. Did our pains go away? No! But after several weeks both my husband and I were finding it easier getting out of bed in the mornings. Then one day (literally) our pains were gone.
The mattress is wonderful and super comfortable we really couldn’t be happier. Oh if only they can do something about my husband’s snoring!

Questions & Answers

Ann

Annasked

Firm King Single

Can you use a Woolen underlay with the matress

3 answers
JasB

Hi Ann. I don’t see why not. We had a mattress comforter to make our previous tempur more plush. We thought it might add extra heat to the sleeping duck but we tried it with and without and there was no difference that we could tell. So now we have that and a lightweight mattress protector on there. I love the feel of plushness but excellent support.

I can't see why you couldn't. We use a Bamboo cotton mattress overlay protector and that is fine. I would recommend the Sleeping Duck mattress, great value for money, very comfortable with excellent support.

Hi Ann,

Thanks for taking the time to leave your question.

We are confident in our ability to get you comfortable through the customisation of the firmness layers. We recommend gaging the feel of your Duck initially without an underlay. However, you can absolutely use a woollen underlay if you would like to!

It's always good to keep in mind that any additional layers may cause some heat retention and could change the overall comfort of your Duck.

Kind Regards,
Team Sleeping Duck

Firm Queen

We find the sheets keep slipping off. What are we doing wrong? Comfortable otherwise. Could it be the mattress protector? We bought several new pairs of organic cotton sheets with deep wall on fitted sheets I.e. 50 cm.

Hi Em!

Thanks for taking the time to get in touch.

We tend to get this kind of feedback from people who are more on the 'restless sleeper' side of things.

For example, we manufacture our Sleeping Duck sheets to be a little deeper (39cm) to ensure that they fit the depth of our mattress which is 31cm. However, I'm sure this extra length could potentially assist in the sheets wriggling upwards throughout the night - which I can understand would be a tad frustrating.

I would recommend ensuring that the sheets have been completely fitted over the sides of the mattress.

Let us know if you have any other questions, or if there's anything else our team can assist you with.

Kindest Regards,
Team Sleeping Duck :)

thanks but that's not really practical when one has arthritis and the mattress weighs heavy. I sleep well despite this and never have any neck or back aches.... that's the most important quality! I might try a less slippery mattress protector and see if that helps.

Randajaasked

Firm Queen

I would like to use my existing base. It has wooden slats 7 cm wide and about 11 cm apart. They are covered with some material which provides a little bit of padding over the slats. Are there any problems using an existing base?

2 answers
Sleeping Duck
Sleeping D.Sleeping Duck

Hi Randaja,

Thanks for your enquiry!

Our mattress can be used on an existing base, given that it does meet our requirements in terms of the structure and centre support to ensure the mattress will uphold the 10 year longevity.

If you have a slatted bed base, you need to ensure the slats aren't anymore than 8cm apart. Queen and King sizes also require adequate centre support.

To find out more about what this means you can find diagrams and descriptions on the Warranty Page (https://www.sleepingduck.com/au/warranty/) on our website.

If you are unsure, feel free to send through some photos to [email protected] and we will be happy to have a further look into it.

Kind Regards,
Team Sleeping Duck
