It's Probably Weird How Much I Love This Mattress

published

I was having issues with a sore back and hips with my old mattress and after five or so nights on the Sleeping Duck they are no longer a problem. My only issue now is wanting to sleep in all the time. I'm glad I went with the firm, soft would have had too much give for me. I sleep in every position imaginable if that's of any help to anyone. It retains a bit of heat compared to my old standard spring mattress but nothing extreme and I definitely wouldn't reconsider the purchase because of it.

Shipping was quick (to rural NSW), unpacking was easy. I've had it about seven weeks now and there's no evidence of sagging. So glad I finally bit the bullet after a year of procrastinating on buying a new mattress.

A good night's sleep

published

I bought this after reading all the positive reviews. Ordering and delivery was easy. It IS a very heavy package! Mattress had a plasticky smell as many have already reported, but it dissipated within a few hours with my ceiling fan turned on.
I had ordered a hard mattress but after 3 weeks is was becoming too uncomfortable, so phoned up to switch to medium instead. The replacement process was just as easy, and now I can finally have a decent night's sleep!

Very very comfortable.

Had it for a month before we were able to unpack it and no problems (doubt we could ever get it back in the box though..lol). Looking forward to many more well slept nights.

A Perfect Nights Sleep

Very Comfortable - not too hard & not too soft. I have been sleeping through the night, waking up fresh. Would usually get the odd stiff neck from my sleeping position but i have not encountered this as of yet.
Very Happy!

Excellent product, we find the new mattress extremely comfortable and provides great support. We are both sleeping a lot better than we were and cannot fault the quality of manufacturing.

The last six weeks have been the best sleep of my life

published

I never realised how truly awful my old mattress was until I slept on my Sleeping Duck mattress. I genuinely thought my old mattress was good. I was wrong, the sleeping duck is absolutely perfect. I now choose to do activities like reading while sitting in bed because it is just so perfectly firm and comfortable. I am sleeping more soundly, and falling asleep a lot faster. Lazy Saturday mornings in bed have come back into my life because I’m so comfortable I never want to leave it.
Staff were very helpful too, they let me change my delivery at the last date so it would arrive the same day as my bed frame.

Get yourself a sleeping duck mattress!

published

Thanks to Choice’s rating I’m in absolute heaven. Best thing I did. Ordered the firm mattress and it was too firm. Swapped to the medium and now I’m Goldilocks!! Perfect! And the service was outstanding! If I had bought a mattress from elsewhere there’s no way they would have swapped it. Thanks Sleeping Duck.

So comfy

published

Having the best sleeps so far. Seems to be good quality - already looking forward to going to bed tonight. Would definitely recommend. Only thing that I would improve is I should have asked delivery person to carry upstairs for me as was very heavy.

Great product, great company.

published

Both the product and the company are first class. We took delivery of our new mattress about 6 weeks ago. I ordered it online on Saturday night and it was delivered on the Monday morning. The website is one of the easiest to use that I have seen. We were regularly contacted by text both before and after the delivery to make sure we were completely happy.

The mattress is very comfortable. We chose the half/half option to suit our personal sleeping habits.

Watching the mattress take shape after removing it from the box is almost worth the purchase price on its own.

Very Happy; great comfort for an ailing back!

published

We have only had the mattress for 2 weeks, but so far very happy with it. My back is less stiff in the mornings compared to all previous matresses and I like the firmness; I have firm and my wife medium, which she likes.

Amazing what truly restful sleep can do

published

Perfect even support and the edges don't sag either. Due to sleep apnea I used to be a side sleeper which didn't help my damaged shoulder. Now I awake lying on my back, truly rested and refreshed. Sleep apnea improved, no shoulder pain and fewer wrinkles too ;-) Should have purchased sooner !

We like a firm mattress, but firm was very firm. No problem, changed to medium, free of charge. Mattress is very high, fyi. So easy and all from home. Great service on phone and online.

Brilliant Mattress

published

Ordered our Sleeping Duck Mattress online and it was delivered fast.
Decided the medium side was a little too soft after several weeks and Sleeping Duck contacted me and organised a firm insert. Insert arrived fast and was super easy to install. OMG sheer heaven to sleep on. My hubby tried my side and wanted to swap, of course I said no. Sleeping Duck contacted me to see how the exchange went and I told them I loved it and hubby wanted my insert, they sent him one so we are both now super comfortable and getting out of bed is sooo hard because the comfort and support level is far to great and all I want to do is lay there all day and night. BEST MATTRESS EVER.

Our purchase.

published

Whole experience great. Old mattress was causing sleepless nights, sore backs and inner workings were noisy. It was less than 5 years old and supposedly top of the range from a well known manufacturer. Sleeping Duck far superior. We bought the whole package including Queen bed, sheets, duvet, pillows. Couldn’t be happier! Delivery and after sales follow up fantastic. Wish we had done this earlier. Thanks Sleeping Duck!

I LOVE my new mattress!!!

published

I honestly have never had trouble sleeping but I truly did not realise how inferior my old mattress was until updating to my Sleeping Duck after reading the review in Choice. I have always slept well but now I am in heaven. It is warm and supportive and its thickness is great. Plus taking it out of the packaging and seeing it expand in a most inviting way was a great start to what I am sure will be a wonderful long term relationship.

Well worth the purchase.

published

The mattress is very supportive of the body. Create comfort. I would happily by another one. Easy delivery. I think it will last quite a few years without any trouble.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions about Sleeping Duck Mattress

How do I order a Sleeping Duck Mattress? Where do they deliver?

Sleeping Duck mattresses can be ordered online, and can be delivered to most Australian locations. They also have a limited selection of retail locations. You can order a Sleeping Duck mattress online from their online store (sleepingduck.com/au).

What does a Half-Half mean with a Sleeping Duck Mattress?

Sleeping Duck mattresses are customisable from the factory, meaning that different segments of the mattress can be softer or firmer to your preference. A Half-Half mattress means that one half of the mattress is medium, while the other half is firm. Contact Sleeping Duck at 1800 667 196 for more information.

How warm does a Sleeping Duck Mattress get?

As a hybrid mattress, the warmth of a Sleeping Duck mattress is generally between a spring-based mattress and a foam-based mattress. If you feel too warm, changing the fabric type of your bed sheet or fitted sheet can help.

Can I use with an electric blanket with a Sleeping Duck Mattress?

Sleeping Duck have stated that you can safely use an electric blanket with their mattresses. However, as sustained heat sources can soften memory foam, Sleeping Duck recommends that you only turn on your electric blanket for a couple of hours before you go to sleep.

Can I comfortably sleep on my side with a Sleeping Duck Mattress?

A Sleeping Duck mattress can be used with most sleep preferences, including with sleeping on your side. Side sleepers may mostly prefer the medium firmness configuration for their mattress.

Latest Consumer Questions

Ozzy

Ozzyasked

Mattress

Viewing through the manufacturers details about the mattress, and consumer reviews that highlight pre-existing physical conditions such as bad back, hip, neck. Nowhere can I find which relates to the weight of the person. This must have a large effect on the type of mattress, the firmness and the length of time it takes before considerable sagging occurs, and the above physical conditions mention above occur. Its personal information, but so is telling others via reviews that you have a bad back or neck. When you visit a medical person, weight is one of the main components of a persons health. No one knows who you are via these reviews.

Why is there not a standard rating provided on a persons weight to assist when purchasing a mattress?
Such as 30-50Kg, 50-70kg, 70-90kg, 90-110kg, and so on

We have a queen mattress and we love it but all our fitted sheets continually come off. We purchased the Sleeping Duck sheets and we still have the same problem. Has anyone had the same problem and if so have you got a solution.

Hi Damien,
Thanks for getting in touch!

We’re sorry to hear that you are having some issues with your sheets.

If you’re concerned about your linen coming untucked, we tend to recommend fitted sheets and protectors with a depth of 35-40cm. This should give the sheets just the right material, even for restless sleepers.

It should ensure less of a struggle to get the sheets on and tucked under nicely.

If you’re really struggling to get the right fit, always feel free to reach out and talk it through with our team.

Kind regards,
Team Sleeping Duck

Is this product Australian made? I hope so, as this will determine whether I buy it or not.

I don't think you will find any mattress made in Australia, except koala. Considering a mattress should be with you for 10-15 yrs, I suggest not basing your buying decision on that point.

Hi Diana!

The steel springs that we use in the pocket spring layer of our mattress are manufactured in China (as are the fabric parts of the mattress).

Both the Hyper-Adaptive foam layer, and the foam used in our customisable comfort layer are made using a local manufacturer in Sydney.

The mattresses are then assembled in China and shipped to us here in Melbourne.

Kind regards,
Team Sleeping Duck
