Wonderful!

published

Very pleased with this mattress overall. Provides excellent support for my lower back and I have not had a sore back since purchasing some months back. This is unlike my previous mattress where I would wake up with a sore back most mornings. Purchased the ultra-plush model which has a lovely soft cushion top. It feels like I'm sleeping on a cloud, and yet I'm completely supported. So far the mattress has maintained its shape and firmness well and would recommend it.

Purchased in October 2021 at Myer.

Great mattress

published

After reading reviews here I bought a D.B. Miracoil Regulate medium mattress from Harvey Norman Cannington during their 'Black Friday' sales. Price was reduced from about $1900 down to $959.52
Very happy with this comfortable mattress from Sleepmaker plus the huge reduction in price by Harvey Norman.
Sleepmaker also sent out a set of free D.B. sheets within 2 weeks of purchase due to registering warranty with them before December 1st 2022
Thank you Sleepmaker and thank you Harvey Norman!

Purchased in November 2021 at Harvey Norman for A$959.52.

Pretty good mattress

published

Had this delivered (mattress only) last week. I have been sleeping on a soft - other brand- mattress and since I have had back fusion I was getting some pain in bed. I have only had the miracoil regulate medium for a week and "bingo", so far no back pain. I think it's going to be a good mattress.

Purchased in December 2021 at Harvey Norman for A$1,200.00.

20 years plus of heavy use and still perfect!

published

We've purchased our Queen size Sleepmaker Miracoil Plus Posture Premium firm mattress second hand on EBay in 2005 for $100 (with free delivery). I believe the mattress was at least 10 years old at that time. I have back pain problem and my husband has back pain and neck injury. I like to sit in bed during the day watching movies, having meals, so its used almost 24/7/365. Our dog doesn't have any complaints too. He sleeps there every day/night. Great craftsmanship! Well done, Sleepmaker!

Purchased in July 2021 at eBay for A$100.00.

Stuck with a useless mattress

published

I brought this mattress almost a year ago. It's so soft that your body is out of alignment when you lie down. It can't possibly be good for your spine without the support. The sagging in the middle is terrible. It feels as tho my head is lower then my body when I lie flat. I slowly saved to be able to afford a new mattress & now I'm stuck with it for at least another year until I can save enough for a better one. I wake constantly thru the night with pins & needles & pressure point pain with this mattress. A far from happy customer. I definitely don't recommend this mattress!!

Got a really good price from Myer. Good deal where you can get free sheets.

Very supportive. Hard to tell with these sorts of beds until many years down the track. Sleepmakrr have a good warranty length so time will tell.

After miracoil rapture for myself, I bought two king single for my sons. A bit expensive, but definitely worthy!

published

The boys are now happy to go back to their beds instead of sleeping on mine, as they like the mattress and can have very good sleep. Hope the mattress have good durability as the boys are naughty.

Hoping things will get better....

published

We bought this mattress as our old mattress (which incidentally wasn't that old) was far too firm. Despite mattress toppers and even a Super Sleeper Pro, things weren't getting a lot better. So after both agreeing we chose this mattress as it was soft on top but hugged the body in the right places - at least it did in the shop. We've only had the mattress for a few nights and we are both not sleeping well - yet. Hoping that as the mattress wears in a little more things will get better as at the moment it seems harder than the 1 we just got rid of.

Perfect night sleep

published

We bought this mattress for our 20 year old son who had been complaining of a sore back. He said that since sleeping on this mattress he has not stirred and is getting the best night's sleep ever. And to top it off, we got it on a great sale.

The store display was much softer

published

We chose this mattress because it felt soft on top and I like that feel especially as I quite often have pain on one side of my upper back and shoulder. My husband likes a firmer mattress than me and I was worried this plush mattress would be too soft for him however since we got it home even he complains it's too hard. When we went back to the store after a month to compare there's we found it much softer and told the staff this who said it shouldn't be different. So they came to look at ours and reckon there's nothing wrong with it. Very dissapointed

Hi Robyn - sorry to hear about this. Have you lodged a warranty claim with us?

No why what good will that do if the salesman from bedshed has also come to our house and can't see a problem with the mattress

Warning: the sheet set offered as a bonus by Sleepmaker is not honoured as it continues in a loop but cannot be processed. Called Sleepmaker/ Dunlop and they confirm it is not working.... so forget it!

Hi I have had my Miracoil mattress for 2 years and it is giving me back pain. I have turned the mattress every month and it has formed dips in it. What can be done?

Hi Nattiarna, I have just used it for a month and haven’t encountered this problem, however, if you have registered the warranty, you are still within warranty period and has the right to ask the help from sleepmaker, I believe.
