By Far the best spring mattress....
Quick and easy transaction, Mattress was simple to use and made a huge difference versus what was once a $10k mattress. Havent looked back since as its been comfortable yet very supportive esp. on the spine.

Great mattress
Mattress is very comfortable although would have preferred a softer one if it has been available. Both of us are sleeping better since we replaced our older mattress. Has reduced pain in shoulder. No noticeable sagging to date but have noted that the edges tend to be soft - needs additional support on the edges.

Hi G,
Thanks so much for leaving your review. ... Read more
We’re so pleased that the Duck was able to play a role in helping relieve your shoulder pain :) Even though we only offer the Medium and Firm with the purchase of your Duck, we do absolutely have a Soft insert which you can try free of charge within your 100 night guarantee. Please do let us know if you’d like to discuss a swap. Your Sleeping Duck’s pocket spring layer does aim to reinforce the outer edges of the mattress in order to provide it with vital longevity, and to allow sleep closer to those edges. The consistent performance of every part of your Duck can always be maintained by ensuring that you’re rotating it regularly, and using a sufficient bed base!

This is great, better than we expected, lives up to the advertising
I wasn't having any real difficulty sleeping on our old mattress but my husband was, he had problems with knees, back & shoulder. He was restless and disturbed me at times. We now both sleep much better with no partner disturbance. Since I put the thicker mattress protector on the bed we are warmer and more comfortable. I think I should point out that I think our rating is 9-9.5 (I don't give 10 but probably should in this case)
Neither of us are comfortable with the pillows, I think it's too low & my husband thinks it's too high, it goes to sh...Read more

It’s wonderful to hear that the time on your Duck has helped your husband with his sleep to such an extent.... Read more
It’s extremely difficult to find a set-up that suits you, especially when you’re juggling multiple physical issues that can mess with your sleep and day to day life. Your Duck’s pocket springs and foam layers are designed to work together to provide necessary blends of tailored support, and comfort depending on the style of sleeper, and the issues they’re dealing with. An added benefit of a pocket spring layer is that we are indeed able to design two different sleep zones, one for each side of the bed. This drastically reduces the amount of disturbance that you’ll experience from the other side of your Duck when trying to drift off to sleep! We really appreciate the lovely words!

The best mattress I have ever slept on.
This mattress was so comfortable from the beginning.
No neck or back pain now when we wake up - not like our previous mattress.
Very restful sleeps.
A great investment - extremely well made and appears really durable.

Very happy teenage boys who love their new mattresses so much they won't get out of bed
After doing my research, decided to go with sleeping duck mattresses for my two teenage sons. The whole ordering and delivery process was easy and efficient. Getting the boxes upstairs was a bit difficult as they are quite heavy. Unboxing the mattresses was easy. I ordered a queen firm and a queen medium. So far so good. They each love their mattress and find it very comfortable and restful. I can see no problems with the mattresses ie. No sagging, still looks brand new after 6 weeks and hasn't lost its firmness according to my sons. I can highly recommend this product for quality and service.

Best sleep of my life
After years of waking with a sore back and hips we finally found a mattress that gives me the support I need and still feels like sleeping on a cloud.

Hi Ellen,
We're fully aware that waking up sore day after day is an exhausting experience, so it's great to know that a Duck is having a positive impact in your life! ... Read more
We created our Hyer-Adaptive foam specifically to provide that feeling of weightlessness as you're dozing off. It means that you can combine all the support you require and still get that cloud-like sensation. Thanks for the review! Kind regards, Team Sleeping DuckSimilar opinion?

So glad we bought this mattress.
We’ve had our Sleeping Duck for six weeks now and it represents excellent value for money. It was delivered on-time as promised and the video helped with unpacking. Most importantly, the back pain I had previously suffered has disappeared and I’m sleeping better, more soundly than I have in years. Thank you.

Perfect Mattress & Exceptional Service
My husband and I are now both sleeping really well, and waking up with no aches or pains. We started with a medium firmness (which was really comfortable but just not quite right), then had a couple of firmness swaps and have ended up with a firm on my husbands side, and I have segmented sections on my side - firm in the hip and lower back area, and medium for the rest. There is no partner disturbance at all when one of you moves in the bed, which helps for a more restful sleep. We found the Sleeping Duck Team to be so helpful and accommodating the whole way through, we have had a fantastic experience purchasing our mattress and certainly highly recommend both the product and the Team behind it. Thank you Sleeping Duck !! 10/10

Best Mattress Ever!
Extremely happy with my Sleeping Duck Mattress; it's so super comfortable that I'm falling asleep faster than I used to. I'm a side sleeper and used to have terrible back pain with my old mattress but not anymore! I've had my SD medium mattress for almost 6 months now and highly recommend.

Perfection
We don’t feel any undue pressure on joints sleeping on this new mattress. We both wake up refreshed and aches and pain free. There is never an uncomfortable position on that mattress as it is so supportive on the whole body. I was sceptical thinking I should buy a tempur mattress initially but I’m glad we didn’t. Friends of ours recommended this brand and I’m glad we tried it. Service and delivery were excellent too. Thank you to everyone

Good night's sleep with no hip or shoulder pain
A little sceptical to start with but the refund option was attractive. Reasonably easy to assemble and amazed at how the mattress unwinds - took video to show friends. Now convinced after sleeping on this mattress that it is great value and the best night's sleep in a long time. Have recommended to all our friends = although they laugh at the name.

Very Good Mattress.
Our old mattress was due for an upgrade as my husband was experiencing discomfort sleeping. The sleeping duck was surprisingly warm and cosy compared to our old mattress. We only have a queen bed but it has the feel of a king size. Very satisfied with our purchase. Cheers.

Hey Friedas!
We appreciate the review.... Read more
We aim for our Ducks to be mix of cosy and supportive, so it's good to get that feedback. A great benefit of utilising a mix of pocket springs and our own Hyper-Adaptive foam is that we can provide that cloud-like feel to the top of your mattress, whilst reinforcing its outer areas with greater resistance from the springs that support its outer edge. Foam mattresses can often feel as though they're falling away as you get closer and closer to that edge. Expanding your available area to sleep in truly makes a Queen feel like a King!

Super Comfortable
The Sleeping Duck mattress is super comfortable. Previous mattress was causing problems for myself and my wife as we were both consistently having lower back problems. Since the move to Sleeping Duck we have both slept so much better and the back problems have gone. Both of us are now getting much better sleep. They are brilliant value for money as comfortable and cheaper than options from the main furniture stores. Should have bought one sooner.

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

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

China
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.
Sleeping D.Sleeping Duck
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
