Best mattress I've had

published

Very comfortable and supportive but I get hot. Back and hip issues much improved. Quality of sleep improving. The only thing that sags is me when I lie on it...

The best thing since sliced bread!

published

Very very happy with out new mattress. So little partner disturbance now. Delivered to our rural property earlier than even the estimate, then when I\ ordered the base a week later, the same wonderful service!
Love my mattress!!!!!

Very good mattress

Considering we were very skeptical to purchase this Sleeping Duck mattress, we found that it is very supportive & value for money. Both my husband & I wake up everyday with less aches & pains. Thank you.

Sleeping Duck Firm has helped ease my back pain and I'm waking up in comfort rather than discomfort. It is a brilliant product. I highly recommend people give Sleeping Duck a go

Can’t believe how good this mattress is!!

published

No more back pain, no more rolling into the centre, now sleeping up to 10 hrs per night!!
Incredible value for money as this sleeping duck is replacing a 3.5 k mattress!

Twice as good at half the price of our previous mattress which, incidentally was only three years old before we sold it.

published

Unlike our previous expensive mattress, Sleeping Duck has kept its shape. It is firm (though we could have it even firmer if that were possible.
Delivery and set up was a dream. Could not be happier

Excellent product. Excellent support.

The mattress is excellent and we could not ask for any more. The staff support is equally good. All in all an excellent product and one to be recommended wholeheartedly.

Perfect

Everything with Sleeping Duck is perfect. Ordering is 10/10, customer service is 10/10. The mattress is 10/10. My only regret is I didn't buy it sooner. I have been sleeping on it for about 10 months and it's still fantastic.

A very comfortable mattress but not perfect

published

The sleeping duck mattress has improved our sleep but I find it a hot mattress to sleep on, having a bad back it has improved this situation greatly for me, my wife sleeps like a little puppy on it so that is the main thing. When getting into bed it dips a bit on the side but when you are in, you are in, all ok.

the reviews don’t lie - this is a very comfy mattress

published

Hated my super hot latex king. Bought a queen half-half, preferred the firm, easy swap over. Has not alleviated back pain completely but mattress is super comfy and I look forward to sleeping on it nightly.

Best decision made in getting this mattress

published

We were a bit anxious about buying this without even testing it in a showroom but it was recommended by a close family member and I read a lot of reviews and we eventually thought lets just go for it and thankfully it was a great decision because we both love it. We opted for the firm/firm and it's perfect for us. For the kids we ordered the Medium which is great for them and even me but I do prefer ours.

Good experience

Supportive bed easy to set up and improved my sleep patterns. Seems to be a normal mattress with a top but not complaining very comfortable and increased quality of sleep.

I love my Sleeping Duck bed, mattress and pillow.

published

I have been researching to find a bed to replace my old one which was getting uncomfortable and giving me sore back. What convinced me to give the Sleeping Duck a trial was the Choice Magazine review.
I have made the correct decision to go with Sleeping Duck. The 'Duckies' that is the staff at Sleeping Duck are wonderful, efficient, friendly and supportive.

I have to try 3 mattress infills before I got the firmness that suits me. The staff was most understanding and efficient each time.

I was given a Sleeping Duck pillow as a 'SURPRISE' birthday gift. It was not promised, but just sent to me.

I would recommend Sleeping Duck to anyone looking for a bed.

Perfect comfort

The separate top layer allows peaceful sleep and stops disturbance from partner moving, rolling over, etc. We’re very happy with our purchase. The mattress is so supportive and comfortable. Thank you Sleeping Duck!

Pleasantly surprised

published

Buying a mattress is a bit of a crap shoot so I was a little cautious around this purchase.
Turns out that after several months I couldn’t be happier.
Much more comfortable than the previous mattress that was five times the price.
The only issue is delivery as they wouldnt carry it across my door way. I would gladly pay more to have them bring it inside and more again to take it upstairs. They might also consider a fee for service if you would like them to remove the old mattress.
I imagine that there are plenty of us who would happily pay for these related services.

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.

Wayne DeLuca

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
